MT, can you work your magic and fix the spacing issues on Template:NCAA Men's Basketball All-Americans? I've tried my best but I don't know how to set this navbox up so that 1905 through 1909 appear exactly in the correct spots, as well as 1929 appearing at the end of the row. I don't know coding and since User:LOL stopped editing six months ago I was hoping you could fix this. Thanks! Jrcla2 ( talk) 03:55, 9 January 2012 (UTC)

On 13 January 2012, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Iowa Energy, which you created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that NBA Development League team Iowa Energy broke the league's attendance record in their first ever home game? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Iowa Energy.You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page ( here's how, quick check) and add it to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page. |

On 5 February 2012, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Miami Heat all-time roster, which you created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that Dwyane Wade has played more minutes, scored more points, made more field goals, made more free throws and recorded more assists than any other player in Miami Heat history?

Thanks for the message. I did notice that Elson was missing from the NBA.com players list a couple days ago, but he's there again. Your theory about waiving him and re-signing him does make sense; the Heat have done that with Mickell Gladness.
As long as the Sixers list him on their roster page, I guess we should still consider him a Sixer. Zagalejo ^^^ 05:07, 14 February 2012 (UTC)
On 16 February 2012, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article 1953 NBA All-Star Game, which you created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that Don Barksdale became the first African American basketball player to play in the NBA All-Star Game after he was selected to play in the 1953 game?

It seems the the NBA infobox has gotten alot smaller. I've checked the talk page to see if any discussion had taken place and could not find one. Any reason as to why this has happened? Beast from da East ( talk) 08:26, 4 March 2012 (UTC)
MT, I saw where you added a number of awards and honors to Charles Jenkins (basketball). It was the consensus of WP:NBA (with collaboration from WP:CBBALL) that only awards or honors which appear on Template:College Basketball Awards and which have their own articles are regarded as worthy enough to be included in an NBA player's infobox (see here for discussion). I've removed, for instance, Jenkins' three-time All-CAA First Team honors and his 2-time honorable mention AP All-America selections. Thanks! Jrcla2 ( talk) 17:22, 23 March 2012 (UTC)

Infobox basketball biography}}. Perhaps I'm biased about All-Pac-12 being the article creator, but there are enough sources that cover it year in and year out that I'd be surprised if did not meet
WP:LISTN. I've reverted some of MT's edits that removed mention of All-Pac-12.—

Martin, kudos on the creation of the new Gators in the NBA article. It is an excellent list article. The existence of the new article creates a problem, however. The older article, which includes both NBA and WNBA players, duplicates two-thirds of the content of the new article. This is contrary to Wikipedia policy, and also causes duplication/structural/relational problems within the larger family of Florida Gators sports articles, lists and navboxes. My initial thoughts are either (1) the two articles need to be merged to a single article and a common format, or (2) the older article needs to be retasked to "Florida Gators in the WNBA." I wanted to solicit your thoughts before I slapped a "merge" template on the two articles. Dirtlawyer1 ( talk) 16:50, 1 April 2012 (UTC)

Hey, I get that it's explained in the notes section but to say Cleveland won the lottery is misleading. The L.A Clippers were the ones that technically won even though they had the 8th best chance at getting the pick. Putting Cleveland alone there makes it seem as if they won with the second best chance. It is the Clippers combination which won, which was then transferred to Cleveland. I thought I did a decent job displaying that. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.227.191.56 ( talk) 18:07, 8 April 2012 (UTC)

Credo Reference, who generously donated 400 free Credo 250 research accounts to Wikipedia editors over the past two years, has offered to expand the program to include 100 additional reference resources. Credo wants Wikipedia editors to select which resources they want most. So, we put together a quick survey to do that:
It also asks some basic questions about what you like about the Credo program and what you might want to improve.
At this time only the initial 400 editors have accounts, but even if you do not have an account, you still might want to weigh in on which resources would be most valuable for the community (for example, through WikiProject Resource Exchange).
Also, if you have an account but no longer want to use it, please leave me a note so another editor can take your spot.
If you have any other questions or comments, drop by my talk page or email me at [email protected]. Cheers! Ocaasi t | c 17:24, 11 July 2012 (UTC)

Hello, Martin tamb. I saw your edit on NBA DPoY and was just curious, are you monitoring his career closely to readd him as active if he joins another team? Shouldn't we at least wait a while to see what happens? Hoops gza ( talk) 01:42, 6 April 2014 (UTC)
Good luck with solving the 77 links to disambiguation pages that you have introduced on San Antonio Spurs all-time roster with your two edits. The Banner talk 20:57, 14 June 2014 (UTC)
Hello, I'm BracketBot. I have automatically detected that your edit to 2014 NBA draft may have broken the syntax by modifying 1 "()"s and 1 "{}"s likely mistaking one for another. If you have, don't worry: just edit the page again to fix it. If I misunderstood what happened, or if you have any questions, you can leave a message on my operator's talk page.
It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, BracketBot ( talk) 15:52, 27 June 2014 (UTC)
Martin, you as the creator of the redirect Charlotte Hornets (1988–2002) → Charlotte Hornets would probably find this highly contested CfD interesting and your thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Jrcla2 ( talk) 17:01, 6 August 2014 (UTC)
Martin - if you feel strongly about "ungreying" names then do so. I guess I don't see it as CRYSTAL or OR if there is no chance they will be active on an NBA roster on opening night (ie - signed a contract for the upcoming season elsewhere or injured for months). These would be greyed during the first week of the season anyway and the shading removed once they appear in a game at some point in the future. But I'm not that hard over on it.
