Edit summaries

Hi there. When editing an article on Wikipedia there is a small field labeled "Edit summary" under the main edit-box. It looks like this:

The text written here will appear on the Recent changes page, in the page revision history, on the diff page, and in the watchlists of users who are watching that article. See m:Help:Edit summary for full information on this feature.

Filling in the edit summary field greatly helps your fellow contributors in understanding what you changed, so please always fill in the edit summary field. If you are adding a section, please do not just keep the previous section's header in the Edit summary field - please fill in your new section's name instead. Thank you. --Sanfranman59 01:38, 26 August 2007 (UTC)

Category:African American baseball players

FYI, I've nominated Category:African American baseball players for speedy deletion. That category has already gone through WP:CFD and was deleted/merged as a result. All of what you're doing may be reversed. —Wknight94 (talk) 01:08, 23 September 2007 (UTC)

Chris Young

Thanks for pointing out the gallery. The thinking is that many have said I had too many images (from the same day) in the article. I consented to moving them to a gallery. You may be interested to know that on 3/25 (Opening Day in Tokyo) Image:20070616 Chris Young visits Wrigley (4)-edit3.jpg will be the WP:POTD on the main page.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/WP:CHICAGO/WP:LOTD) 19:29, 10 January 2008 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of Template:Baseball Year/doc

A tag has been placed on Template:Baseball Year/doc requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section T3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a deprecated or orphaned template. After seven days, if it is still unused and the speedy deletion tag has not been removed, the template will be deleted.

If the template is intended to be substituted, please feel free to remove the speedy deletion tag and please consider putting a note on the template's page indicating that it is substituted so as to avoid any future mistakes (<noinclude>{{transclusionless}}</noinclude>).

Lifetime

Can I ask you, why are you adding Lifetime as you did here and in many other cases? The instructions in Lifetime read "Please, don't replace DEFAULTSORT, xxxx births, yyyy deaths with this template. There is no consensus for this action." Thanks,Magioladitis (talk) 03:08, 1 February 2009 (UTC)

Question about an edit

I noticed this edit, as I am a regular watcher of this page. I'm curious, what is the critera for "person from somewhere." I'm not sure this category refers to people's birthplace. I was born in city X and moved to city Y when I was six months old -- I lived in that town for 21 years. I'd say "city Y" is where I'm from, not "city X."

I'm not commenting here to disagree with your edit, but rather to question it. I think "from" needs to be qualified somewhere. Timneu22 (talk) 19:04, 7 February 2009 (UTC)

José Canseco

Thanks for reverting me at Dream 9. I changed it because I couldn't believe Choi was actually fighting a baseball player and though it was someone with the same name :) Cheers, --aktsu ^(t / c) 11:55, 30 April 2009 (UTC)

Ichiro Suzuki

Hello Kanesue. I was wondering if you might do us a favor. None of us can find English-language sources that verify the infobox statistics for Ichiro in Nippon ProBall. The question we are trying to answer is: Does Ichiro hold an Orix franchise record OR a NPB career or single-season record in each of those statistics? If you could check some Japanese-language sources and let me know what you find out, I would appreciate it. If I've confused you or the question is not clear, please let me know. Thanks. KV5 (Talk • Phils) 12:44, 7 September 2009 (UTC)

Is that for all six categories under NPB? KV5 (Talk • Phils) 13:03, 7 September 2009 (UTC)

Hello, Kanesue! This is just a note thanking you for participating in my recent Request for Adminship, which passed with a total of 93 support !votes, 1 oppose and 3 editors remaining neutral. While frankly overwhelmed by the level of support, I humbly thank the community for the trust it has placed in me, and vow to use the tools judiciously and without malice. KV5 (Talk • Phils)

Thanks for the Baseball Barnstar

Hey, I'm writing to say thanks for the Baseball Barnstar you recently awarded me. It may sound corny, but I am truly honored to be recognized by another member of WikiProject Baseball, especially such a quality editor as yourself. It really made my day to be awarded the barnstar, and makes me more determined than ever to ensure another baseball article becomes Featured here on Wikipedia.

日本語版での論争についてコメントのお願い

Singingさん、お久しぶりです。UCinternationalです。最近はこちらでの活動が活発なようで、私もここにコメントさせていただきます。

さて、今回うかがったのは日本語版でのとある議論についてです。私は最近、「Template:Infobox baseball playerを使用する際には、そのTemplate解説ページに表示されているサンプルと同じ表記にすべき」と注意を受けました。それで、サンプルのおかしいところを改めていこうと呼びかけたのですが、「経歴欄の所属期間に単位の『年』をつけるべきか否か」という点で、ある方との間で議論が完全に行き詰ってしまいました。

現在はTemplate‐ノート:Infobox baseball playerにおいて、いったん仕切り直しとして、私と論争相手の方とがもう一度みずからの意見をまとめ直している段階です。そこでSingingさんにお願いしたいのが、この件についてコメントすることです。「経歴欄の所属期間に単位の『年』をつけるべきか否か」、Singingさんの意見をお聞かせ願いたい。

Singingさんが最近起稿されたスターリン・カストロやクレイトン・リチャードでは、所属期間には「年」がついているので、Singingさんは私の意見を理解してくださると思います。ですが、もし「私の意見に納得できない」「論争相手の方が言ってることのほうが正しい」とお思いならばそれでもかまいません。その旨を表明してください。

事態打開のためにコメントをよろしくお願いします。--UCinternational (talk) 11:27, 20 June 2010 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for File:KANESUE logo.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:KANESUE logo.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the file description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Courcelles 08:41, 29 December 2010 (UTC)
