I believe that the Outsider's Guide is such an important resource to NLL newbies that it should have its own article at Wikipedia. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.194.102.148 ( talk) 11:02, January 31, 2005
I think the logos should be removed from the team section. It makes it look kind of weird and makes that section too long. Anyone oppose? -- Yarnalgo 23:26, 23 September 2006 (UTC)
A couple of times now, I've had to remove statements about the league's desire to expand - people list specific cities that the league "wants" to expand to. If you're going to add those kind of statements, they must include a reference - some news article somewhere that quotes the commissioner or someone in an authority position. -- MrBoo ( talk, contribs) 00:01, 8 November 2006 (UTC)
Would it make sense to reorganize the article a bit? Right now, it doesn't seem to have very good flow. My initial thoughts are to have the Game section first, followed by a much expanded history section, which would encompass the teams currently in the league, franchise movements, championship results, commissioners, league offices, etc. Then you could have the expansion and media sections.
I think that type of history section is currently too table driven, and maybe changing it to paragraphs for a couple of the sections would be appropriate. Mountainhawk 00:56, 3 March 2007 (UTC)
While it is accurate that Montreal's rights were sold to the Minnesota group and Ottawa's rights to Edmonton, I don't think it's accurate to claim they are the same franchise. For example, if you look in the NLL media guide, the Mammoth were founded in 1986 (tracing the history back to the Baltimore Thunder), but the Swarm were founded in 2005. This could be handled by showing the Swarm and Rush as separate franchises, but with a footnote applying to them and the franchise whose rights they took. Mountainhawk 00:56, 3 March 2007 (UTC)
I was going through the teams' rosters on the NLL site, but did not see anyone from Australia. Nor do any of the rosters on the WIkipedia pages show any Australians. The last one I knew of was Dennis Julef of the Rochester Knighthawks, who was released two seasons ago. Can we be more specific of the player, or could this be updated? -- Paploo 06:57, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
This Seems kinda simplistic, but there are quite a few Native players in the league and they are neither American nor Canadian (they play for the Iroquois Team in the world games) I think we need to break that down. Seanm9 19:26, 25 March 2007 (UTC)Seanm9

Is Brendan Mundorf considered American or Australian in this count, since he is listed as dual-nationality? -- Paploo 00:45, 8 November 2007 (UTC)
Regarding User:Paploo question on ip User talk:65.94.59.190, concerning "Who is the Slovakian lacrosse player?" I think the answer must be Thomas Hajek. Born in Slovakia & his family moved to Canada when he was a child. [1] How should it be listed? I am not sure. Mitico ( talk) 20:14, 2 January 2008 (UTC)
Per [2] "There are currently 22 Native American players in the National Lacrosse League . . . " I'll word to reconcile. -- Mitico ( talk) 14:14, 13 February 2008 (UTC)
So on the current rosters, is it correct to have Mundorf as Australian and Hajek as Canadian? Jc121383 ( talk) 23:34, 12 August 2008 (UTC)
Do we need the 2008 as a separate section. How about we just mention that the league has a midseason ASG in the current structure section, and link to the NLL ASG page? Mountainhawk 23:38, 14 March 2007 (UTC)
I tried to start adding refs to the history section, but found that pretty much every reference would be to the history page at the NLL web site. Does anyone know of a good way of saying something like "this entire section is referenced from here", rather than having 15 different footnotes to the same source? -- MrBoo ( talk, contribs) 12:27, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

According to the NLL's webpage: http://www.nll.com/page/show/880191-teams-2014- The Minnesota Swarm are not in the East Division, they are in the West. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 153.2.246.30 ( talk) 12:32, 20 September 2013 (UTC)

Due to Template:Infobox NLL team being merged into Template:Infobox lacrosse team two years ago, none of current NLL teams use the parameter "league=" to display National Lacrosse League or NLL in the team infoboxes. Seems like this is pretty basic information that a casual reader would want to know first (and show up in Google search summaries). Also, I added the "current=" parameter to show the lacrosse-sticks-clock icon and "Current season" text at the bottom of the infobox. With only nine teams, I would add all the "leagues= NLL" and "current=" (which needs full name of article, but not wikilinks), but thought I might as well lay out the reason here first. And happy new NLL season to you. - Mnnlaxer | talk | stalk 02:04, 5 December 2017 (UTC)
Several mid 2000s history sections are too long for the general article. If there is no objection, I will work on shortening them up soon. - Mnnlaxer | talk | stalk 07:17, 17 December 2017 (UTC)

It sounds like the Stealth name is officially dead. They were doing a TSN 1040 broadcast and they called it "the Vancouver lacrosse club, formerly the Stealth". Do we now change the name everywhere accordingly until the rebrand? -- MattBinYYC ( talk) 07:26, 12 July 2018 (UTC)
The page Professional Lacrosse Players' Association has been suggested (by me) to be merged into this page because it isn’t notable to have its own article and this page doesn’t have a section on it. It seems like a a smart and necessary merger as it will eliminate a page that shouldn’t exist and add to this page. Twooeight ( talk) 00:18, 14 August 2019 (UTC)
