User talk:Randy

From BR Bullpen

Randy, I think your articles are getting very good. Two areas you could improve upon - 1) Adding high school information to the demographics section (right underneath colleges attended or in lieu of colleges attended) either in place of or in addition to in the text of the article itself. 2) Adding links to minor league teams. Instead of writing Denver, Denver Bears takes an extra couple seconds and allows folks to jump from page to page more readily.

Keep up the fine work. - --Mischa 21:44, 12 September 2006 (EDT)

Also, you can link to the specific league i.e. Western League instead of "the league". I do think the articles look much better with the blurbs you are adding than they did blank.

Randy, can you surround your quotes with <blockquote></blockquote> to improve readability. Only the quote (or quotee) could be italized for the same reason. Also, for other uses such as George Washington, I have created a Template:OtherUses just for that purpose (it goes at the top of the article). Thanks. --MichaelEng 23:44, 17 September 2006 (EDT)

There were pages for the "Howard Berry"/"Joe Berry"s - oddly, the main Bullpen site lists them as Howard and here they're Joe. I redirected Howard #1 and moved your content and will try to do the same with #2 later. - --Mischa 13:00, 17 December 2006 (EST)

Randy, the folks at attheplate.com have notified us that you directly copied a quote from their page about Sterling Slaughter. Sean removed this. Please either cite sources or be careful in using material from other places (rewording, paraphrasing, etc.) It is best of course to do both to avoid any risks of plagiarism.

Keep up the nice work overall. Good job on getting a basic bio up on a lot of pages. - --Mischa 10:33, 19 March 2007 (EDT)

When listing All-American honors, please list the source. There is no official All-American list and several diffretent groups list different players. - --Mischa 10:09, 19 April 2007 (EDT)

[edit] Fergy Malone

I had rolled back the "pre-MLB player" category addition, which accidentally led to the removal of your previous edits. Just Me restored the article. I apologize. - --Mischa 08:29, 21 June 2007 (EDT)

Randy, had two league pages butchered up - North carolina State League at 21:33 and Florida State League at 22:17. I am not sure I got them back in the right history. I do not have that much knowledge at that type of thing and Mischa is not on. Can you take a look.--Dugout 21:06, 14 July 2007 (EDT) it was pure vandalism!

[edit] Team Reviews

Thanks for the 2007 team summaries! - --Mischa 18:12, 30 September 2007 (EDT)

You're welcome - although I just noticed that I jumped the gun on the Dodgers - they still have at least one more inning to play, so some of the stats are not final yet! - Randy 18:23, 30 September 2007 (EDT)
