What content am I deleting? You mean the note about who was a Rosenfeld/Conacher winner and who wasn't (I was the first one to add that by the way)? That can easily be adapted into the table. I am also willing to go to WP:RFC, so we'd best work something out. I'll readd the stars for past winners if it means that much to you. And as for the colour, I added colour in the original version because I wanted the winners of the Rosenfeld/Conacher trophies to be easily distinguishable and the current star system doesn't really stand out. The current colouring is how many single line lists are done because it is easier to read. -- Scorpion 01:58, 8 February 2007 (UTC)Reply

What was so bad about the edits the other editor made? Would you object to reverting back to the table before those edits were made? -- Scorpion 02:07, 9 February 2007 (UTC)Reply

Peter Maher at Calgary Flames edit

Actually, the importance of the Foster Hewitt Memorial Award is not my POV. Its importance is defined by the fact that the Hockey Hall of Fame itself makes mention of it. That the NHL makes mention of it, and that most publications talking about any year's hall of fame make mention of it. I am reverting your removal one more time, and adding a request at both the talk page at Calgary Flames, and at WP:HOCKEY for others to weigh in. I ask, and expect, that you will respect the consensus of the community. Resolute 16:58, 18 February 2007 (UTC)Reply

And your personal opinion that Maher should not be included is also just that, a personal opinion. It is likewise not fact. Given we have conflicting opinions, it is appropriate to have the community decide. Resolute 17:43, 18 February 2007 (UTC)Reply

Why was the information on a curse of the Hockey Team, Toronto Maple Leafs deleted? edit

Good day. I am going to ask you why you have removed the bit I added about the possibility of a curse on the Toronto Maple Leafs. How is it violating Wikipedia rules? You directed me to a page of what Wikipedia "is not". I did not read anything in there claiming you can not mention the possibility or appearance of a curse. What I sumbitted is mentioning the possibility of a curse. Not claiming it. I am wondering if this is an error? Would you like me to instead create a new Wikipedia article about the Curse and add it to the Sports-Related Curses section instead of the Toronto Maple Leafs page?

Thank You. Mr Canada 06:14, 24 February 2007 (UTC)Reply

Hello, please double check what you revert. In this instance the revision you reverted was somewhat serious vandalism, attacking a living person. Thanks, Mak (talk) 16:31, 27 February 2007 (UTC)Reply

Bavaria and reverting edit

Try not to be too quick on the reverts. 65.96.29.235 (talkcontribsWHOIS) was inexpertly trying to revert the bad edits by 90.186.219.91 (talkcontribsWHOIS), but you then reinstated the bad edits. I try to go back in the history until I know the correct point to revert back to. It sometimes is difficult, especially as the last several edits might be bad! Shenme 03:58, 1 March 2007 (UTC)Reply

Cape Coral High School edit

Just a heads-up to let you know that the article for Cape Coral High School that you nominated for deletion appears to have been improved quite a bit since you tagged it. Please take another look. I would guess it won't qualify for deletion at this point. - Itsfullofstars 02:17, 2 March 2007 (UTC)Reply

Revert edit

Thanks for fixing this mistake of mine. I can't remember the logic behind my edit at this point, but there was apparently a flaw in it somewhere. --Wafulz 05:50, 15 March 2007 (UTC)Reply

Hi edit

I am a bit surprised by the tenor of your approach. Thanks for going back and working on reverting vandalism. Of course, this is all I was also trying to do. I went back and looked more carefully at it thanks to your advice. You might want to consider a less accusatory tone when working with others. Anyways, have a good day and happy editing. --Kukini hablame aqui 23:18, 17 March 2007 (UTC)Reply

Was Hap Day really not GM? edit

I'm confused ... a lot of articles on the Maple Leafs say that Day was merely assistant GM, but his Hockey Hall of Fame plaque (viewable here says he was GM during the 1957-58 season. I'd have raised this on the Talk page before, but I thought the HHOF was authoritative enough that I could just be bold. Where's the conflict? Maybe it's my perspective from a guy in a non-traditional market, but I don't understand.Blueboy96 15:09, 24 March 2007 (UTC)Reply

Interwiki links edit

Somehow, all of your edits are wrecking the interwiki links in every article. How is that happening? You need to stop until that is fixed. —Wknight94 (talk) 18:45, 11 August 2007 (UTC)Reply

Okay. As long as you're aware, carry on.  Wknight94 (talk) 18:47, 11 August 2007 (UTC)Reply

Reverts of Djsasso edit

Would you mind explaining the reasoning for the mass reverts? Maxim(talk) (contributions) 22:29, 17 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

Andy Fairweather Low edit

The name of the main article (as above) has now moved to reflect the lack of a hyphen.
