Talk:Raider Nation

Should a list of Celebrity Raider Fans Be Added?

This a nice short article on the Raider Nation. It would interesting see a summary list of celebrity or famous people who happen to be Raider Fans. Such a list would have to include references proving each famous person added to the list is an actual Raiders Fan.

Bandwagoners arn't a part of Raidernation!--Lamrock 21:56, 9 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Well I don't think that all celebrity Raider Fans are necessarily band wagoners. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.232.200.187 (talk) 00:25, 8 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

NPOV

The paragraph- Inside the Raider Nation there are many sects of fans. One group of Raider fans are known as the "South Shield". Located at the entrance of the B and C lots. The tailgate consists of great food and drinks as well as the music of "Raiderhed". A live band who plays classic rock songs with a Raider twist. As great as the music is, the best part of the "South Shield" is the food created by resident chef "South Shield Travis". His ribs and brisket have won awards across the Bay Area., needs to be changed to npov or be removed completly, please fix. 69.148.158.112 (talk) —Preceding comment was added at 04:23, 11 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Suggestions for additions to this page

I'd like to expand this page to include the Culture of Raider Nation, the Lore of the Raiders, and the information about the rivalries between the Raiders and other teams. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.169.25.132 (talk) 20:05, 22 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The sections on Raider Lore as well as past players were all cited--there were numerous references or links to current Wikipedia pages. The page on "Raider Nation" is about Raider fans, and the information that has been removed was about the things that Raider fans discuss or talk about.67.169.25.132 (talk) 03:52, 28 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I forgot to add that each event added under Lore are currently on other Wikipedia pages, such as NFL lore and Chiefs-Raiders rivalry. The idea was to use this page as an aggregate for all the events that Raider fans discuss-events that have sources in mainstream media, or that are listed on Wikipedia pages, such as Wikipedia pages for an NFL postseason.67.169.25.132 (talk) 04:21, 28 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Your copy/paste of the "notable games" from NFL lore constituted a copyright violation per WP:Copying within Wikipedia and needed to be removed. Further, a list of notable games is slightly off-topic for this article, as it is about Raider fans. Please discuss on this talk page and achieve a consensus before making a massive change.

Yes, it is about Raider fans and what Raider fans DISCUSS. Raider fans DISCUSS memorable games. Raider fans DISCUSS legendary players. The idea was to describe the things that Raider fans discuss, so that a non-fan or new fan would know what is being discussed. I could have just as easily created a page dedicated to Raider lore, but decided that it made more sense to relate "lore" to what fans DISCUSS. Moreover, the descriptions were all cited, either with Wikipedia links to the original page or with the news article that it appeared in. I paraphrased the descriptions that I culled from other Wikipedia pages.67.169.25.132 (talk) 00:35, 1 December 2011 (UTC)67.169.25.132 (talk) 00:35, 1 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
