:While I agree that they need to be updated to this year's shirts, I think you were a little harsh in saying they "are in serious need of update." They are, after all, only last year's shirts (and the caption does say they are from 2007). I'm sure someone will come along with update pictures.

Away colors
Can someone fix the away colors? There is no black in their away colors. I tried to fix it, but couldn't for some reason.KitHutch 15:25, 13 November 2006 (UTC)
- I uploaded a new template that allows for a white body with thin red stripes, whereas the previous template dictated black with no apparent allowance for input. There is probably a better way to do this, but the black is out for now. Bill Oaf 06:14, 14 November 2006 (UTC)
Individual Awards
Does anybody else want to chime in (either way) on the inclusion of individual players' awards under the "Notable Players" section? I'm in favor of it because it helps define what makes the player notable; the opinion against seems to be that the information is available elsewhere (though I argue that it isn't always on the player's personal page; it is available on the MLS Awards category page). Bcordes 16:24, August 1, 2005 (UTC)
- I just wrote something on your talk page... IMHO, it makes the section look ugly. And all the awards are already listed on the individual page of the award, the page for the MLS season, and (in most cases), on the player's page. I guess it's not a big deal, but theyn you would have to put every awards for every "notable player" for every team for consistency. And personally, I don't think "All-Star MVP" should be listed on the team's page, because the All-Star game has nothing to do with the team itself. --DR31 (talk) 16:30, 1 August 2005 (UTC)
Honors
i think with the year-by-year we dont need to list being first in the east as an honor--especially since they finished behind everyone in the west but kc. Nateji77 15:29, 22 September 2005 (UTC)

- Like the Red Bull one? Awesome. -- Loudsox 17:48, 18 June 2006 (UTC)
- yep, just like the Red Bull one I made TrackMonkey 21:57, 18 June 2006 (UTC)
Davide Zomer
Was added as a goalkeeper on the roster. I can find no evidence of this, so I removed it. Added Oka and Abundis. Bill Oaf 04:44, 16 September 2006 (UTC)
Attendance Numbers
The figures for the attendances numbers seem extremely high. I have worked at the stadium in some function for the past 4 years and these numbers seem completely made up. I suggest taking them down until verifiable ones are put up.
- The official attendance figures that MLS puts out are notoriously imaginary, even compared with the padding that regularly goes on in other sports. Teams with notably bad attendance, like NE, KC, and my team, RBNY, tend to see wildly inflated numbers. Teams with good attendance (DC, LA, some others) are a little more reasonable. If it were up to me, I wouldn't mind seeing attendance numbers stripped out of all MLS articles, but no one would go for it: it'll be argued that inflated attendance figures are commonplace in sports (true), that some sort of attendance figure has to be given (more debatable), and that the league's official numbers are the only ones we can really use (sort of true, but there should be some note about reliability). Bill Oaf 01:39, 19 November 2006 (UTC)
Those are the "official" attendance numbers. They may seem high, but unless you have the actual gate numbers they will have to do. 72.200.165.150 00:28, 29 December 2006 (UTC)Wolfp10
Agreed. It's official. It's officially wrong, but since that's what they are announcing, that's what it is. SirFozzie 05:59, 29 December 2006 (UTC)
Other
I changed Dorman's nationality to English from Welsh. He was born in England but raised in Wales.

Famous supporters?
Are there any?
If you check their Wikipedia pages FC Dallas, Galaxy, Chivas, DC United, Dynamo, Chicago even Columbus have their listed..... —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Qwestarsenal (talk • contribs) 17:44, 4 February 2007 (UTC).
Fair use rationale for Image:NE Revolution logo.gif
Image:NE Revolution logo.gif is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template.

Midnight Riders
Does anyone else think that the little information on this page about the Midnight Riders can be expanded upon more on its own page? Their website also has some pretty useful information. Red Bull New York has pages for their supporter groups and they don't have maybe less information than the Midnight Riders--Tsurettejr 21:38, 24 August 2007 (UTC)

Notable former players
As a revs fan, I love Cancela and Dorman as much as the next guy, but do they really belong in the notable former players section? Most of the other guys are former internationals or had relatively sparkling careers compared to these two. It just seems to me the standard here should be a bit higher than part time starter for a couple of seasons with decent numbers. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 131.191.92.226 (talk) 03:45, 19 January 2008 (UTC)
- I agree, in a sense. What should be criteria for being a "Notable former player"? At least 50 Revs appearences and/or 50 national caps? Thoughts? Bwidell (talk) 22:59, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
