home court on the left - who said that

edit

TyrusThomas4lyf ?? What you said about home court on the left doesn’t make sense. Go look at 2006 playoff page before making ur unwarranted claim Chris 01:21, 22 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

MJ as "Superman"

edit

Would you find a reliable source or two to back up your claim? Thanks. --PS2pcGAMER (talk) 07:28, 23 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

Superman is not a common nickname for Michael Jordan. At all. Even if one source backs it up it's not, he's probably been called a thousand things in sports articles or TV programs doesn't make any of them a common nickname. Quadzilla99 08:18, 23 April 2007 (UTC)Reply
Not only that, it's completely trivial. Quadzilla has worked extremely hard on this article, and knows the reasons why it has gained a featured article status today. In order for it to have gained this status, he has had to remove more well known little factoids about MJ because they were trivial (i.e. wearing his UNC shorts under his bulls shorts, etc).

User's other accounts

Just to clarify this user is also 68.253.206.119 (see here and particularly here) not that he's been dishonest about this but I'm saying this as he has been warned about his behavior in the past. See here. Quadzilla99 08:24, 23 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

A quick glance over this will show what I was referring to. In there he calls one editor an "autocratic douchebag (sic)", says "this is my fucking list" when describing a revert to an article he is working on, and tells one editor to "shut the fuck up". In here he calls one editor a "fucking idiot", and tells one editor "What the fuck are you doing "Lakers"? Stop deleting all of the hard work that's been put into this or I will request your ban."

To be honest with you I notified an admin about you just so we can keep an eye on you and make sure you try to work with people not in competition with them or against them. As I said on your old user page you do a lot of good work you just need to tone down the confrontational style. Quadzilla99 08:45, 23 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

TSN MVP award/Lebron james page

edit

For your information the TSN mvp award is a very prominent award given by that publication, based on voting of the thirty general managers in the league. it has been given out since 1958. It is a noted accomplishment featured on the wikipedia pages of many players who have won that award. Its list is featured on the basket-ball refference website if you need more information. http://www.basketball-reference.com/awards/tsn_mvp.html External awards are also allowed inclusion on player pages and are often included.

Before making any other sweeping edits based on your personal opinions, please first discuss it on the talk page before going through with it. Duhon 00:14, 27 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

Your personal summary means nothing, source/links are determined by WP:RS standards. Quadzilla99 23:55, 27 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

of which I've provided three news stories testifying to the reliability of the source provided. Quadzilla99 23:59, 27 April 2007 (UTC)Reply
Hi! Championships aren't awards. An error elsewhere doesn't need to be repeated. You'll notice someone else reverted you first. Quadzilla99 00:05, 28 April 2007 (UTC)Reply
 

This is your last warning. If you continue to make personal attacks, you will be blocked for disruption.

Please don't call other users ignorant it won't help your case and will only make things worse. Thanks. Quadzilla99 01:11, 28 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

Infobox

edit

Tyrus before you start re-formatting the tables we need to reach consensus. We haven't done that yet. Quadzilla99 02:10, 28 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

If you want to move the sections around that's fine (like for instance moving the Awards section to the top of the page for example), but it's redundant to say things twice. Maybe you should discuss on the talk page first before re-arranging the article. Quadzilla99 06:14, 28 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

LeBron James Vandalism

edit

Please get consensus before removing any more information from the LeBron James page. It's referenced, and several people have agreed that it is notable. Also, please note that you are already in violation of WP:3RR. Reverting again may lead to your being reported. --OnoremDil 10:11, 29 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

You've been warned more than enough about reverting and removing information from the article. Consensus was met. Failure to acknowledge consensus and continually reverting edits and removing information is considered vandalism. From this point on, warning levels will be issued, following a block if necessary.

2007 NBA Playoffs article

edit

I'm seriously thinking about going back and revamping the whole article to match with the other playoff articles, despite what Mr. Howard might think. If anything, we should keep it like that until this issue is solved. What do you think? Dknights411 17:47, 2 May 2007 (UTC)Reply

If you're intent on removing that, you'd have to integrate trivia items into the existing article text. If you want I'd do it for you. Continuing to remove valid notices is vandalism. --Howard the Duck 08:02, 4 May 2007 (UTC)Reply

And renaming them as "Notes" doesn't help either since only the note about Chicago and Houston's home court advantages are truly notes; the rest are plain trivia. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Howard the Duck (talkcontribs) 08:06, 4 May 2007 (UTC).Reply
This is insulting. I'm trying to follow Wikipedia's guidelines on trivias and you keep on reverting citing we should follow the previous playoffs pages' convention? A guideline trumps over anything else, even previous playoffs' pages conventions. --Howard the Duck 08:20, 4 May 2007 (UTC)Reply
Trivia is trivia no matter how you call it. (And can you please have a discussion instead of reverting?) --Howard the Duck 08:26, 4 May 2007 (UTC)Reply
Also, I don't seem to find trivia/notes sections on other playoffs pages. --Howard the Duck 08:28, 4 May 2007 (UTC)Reply
