There is a redirect of BdotAdot to Brandon Armstrong. The problem is, that Brandon Armstrong (born 1980) is not the right person and is therefore misleading. BdotAdot (who you have probably heard about [3] [4]) is actually Brandon Armstrong (born 1990) [5] [6]. Is there grounds for deleting that redirect page? Thanks.

Sorry for my mistake, I was too fast and didn't check. But it's still wrong, because now it should read "would lie on his back" instead of "would lay on his back".

Hi!

You get this message because you are an admin on a Wikimedia wiki.

When someone edits a Wikimedia wiki without being logged in today, we show their IP address. As you may already know, we will not be able to do this in the future. This is a decision by the Wikimedia Foundation Legal department, because norms and regulations for privacy online have changed.

Instead of the IP we will show a masked identity. You as an admin will still be able to access the IP. There will also be a new user right for those who need to see the full IPs of unregistered users to fight vandalism, harassment and spam without being admins. Patrollers will also see part of the IP even without this user right. We are also working on better tools to help.

If you have not seen it before, you can read more on Meta. If you want to make sure you don’t miss technical changes on the Wikimedia wikis, you can subscribe to the weekly technical newsletter.

We have two suggested ways this identity could work. We would appreciate your feedback on which way you think would work best for you and your wiki, now and in the future. You can let us know on the talk page. You can write in your language. The suggestions were posted in October and we will decide after 17 January.

Thank you. /Johan (WMF)

On 14 January 2022, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Bruce Davis (offensive tackle), which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Bruce Davis and his son, who both played for UCLA in college and professionally for the Raiders, are one of the few father–son duos to have played on teams that reached the Super Bowl? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Bruce Davis (offensive tackle). You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Bruce Davis (offensive tackle)), and if they received a combined total of at least 416.7 views per hour (i.e., 5,000 views in 12 hours or 10,000 in 24), the hook may be added to the statistics page. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

Regarding Chuck Nevitt, according to his stats he only played 9 seasons in the NBA during his 12-year pro career. He was resigned by the Rockets before the 1983-84 season and according to Basketball-Reference was waived on November 29, 1983, after not playing any games about 14 games into the season. Not sure if that season should count, unless he was actually an unused substitue in some of those games, then we could say he spent 10 seasons in the NBA. He then did split the 1985-86 season with the Lakers and Pistons. Alvaldi (talk) 08:53, 14 January 2022 (UTC)

@Alvaldi: You're right. I fixed it. I probably counted 1985–86 twice from stats tables because he played for two teams that year. Thanks.—Bagumba (talk) 09:16, 14 January 2022 (UTC)

Hi Bagumba, thanks for helping with the Siti articles. I just wanted to ask you about the removal of the hatnote ([7]). I put it there to signpost to the reader that people may have that name through an entirely different origin. I think that otherwise the reader may think that there aren't any others. Do you think that's a problem? If not then don't worry, and if yes, then what's the best way to avoid it, other than a hatnote? Dr. Vogel (talk) 13:31, 14 January 2022 (UTC)

@

WP:NAMB, as the title is not ambiguous with the (given name) disambiguator. Anyone looking for a different topic presumably wouldn't have landed at the article. That said, I notice that Siti still has some people with the given name listed there (or at least their title starts with "Siti"). Is there a particular reason for that?—Bagumba (talk

) 14:58, 14 January 2022 (UTC)

Yeah, those are the people who have that name, but it doesn't have a Malay origin. Dr. Vogel (talk) 15:28, 14 January 2022 (UTC)

@

WP:APO can offer some guidance.—Bagumba (talk

) 19:04, 14 January 2022 (UTC)

Yes, the point you make is also true, so I'm in 2 minds about this. Initially my idea was to make Siti (given name) about the Malay name, with proper sources etc. But of course the point you make is also valid, and it could be simply a list of people with that name, regardless or origin, and without sources, and if we do that then we'd move over the few remaining people from the dab page.

Edit warring and adding insignificant NBA G League showcase team honor at Paris Bass. Also just plain being rude. Could probably use someone uninvolved to help him understand how to work within and towards consensus. Rikster2 (talk) 19:29, 21 January 2022 (UTC)

Most of the records in question follow a 1 + 1 rule, as he owns most of the records in question for both regular season and post season individually. So by virtue of owning both, it is mathematically impossible to not own a combined record.

Most of those sources can be found in both the regular season record or post season record sections. I am not well versed in adding sources correctly, which is why I limit my edits to updating posted statistics, but I can provide links to several of them, and the numbers are backed through https://www.pro-football-reference.com/

Additional links to these pages help provide documentation for several of the records.

@FrostCzar: I generally stay clear of SBNation for reliability (notable exceptions like The Ringer), mostly amateurish fan blogs. WP:NFL might differ from me.—Bagumba (talk) 10:55, 3 February 2022 (UTC)

I won't argue with your point on SBNation, but can we at least agree to update the numbers to factually correct numbers to help prevent people from creating and posting future blogs and articles that will include incorrect information based on old numbers by lazy writers coming to wiki? That was my main goal in attempting to make the original edit. Updating the sources and talking to the source material can certainly be something worth talking about in the talk page if it must be, but at least have the correct statistics up in the meantime to prevent misinformation, would be helpful.

I'm not certain what you mean by history, but my general position on it is that it doesn't reliably reflect

@

WP:NSPORTS#Q6: "I want to create a new sports-specific notability guideline or revise an existing one. What approach should I take?" The intent there is not for NSPORTS to be a free-for-all, but a few popular sports seem to have had their loose guidelines grandfathered in. See also Wikipedia_talk:Notability_(sports)#2021_in_review, for examples of sufficient oversight on new proposals.—Bagumba (talk

WP:NFOOTY. BilledMammal (talk

) 07:35, 7 February 2022 (UTC)

@BilledMammal: The original intent was not for "meets NSPORTS" to be valid in perpetuity, but it was not intented for "fails GNG" to be commonplace in the 1st AfD nom, either. I'd always hoped that individual sport projects would eventually patrol their own, but my optimism is waning. I would support delisting some specific sports, NFOOTY, being one.—Bagumba (talk) 07:44, 7 February 2022 (UTC)

Could you explain what you mean by but it was not intented for "fails GNG" to be commonplace in the 1st AfD nom? For many articles, the only reason to bring them to AFD is for failing GNG? Other criteria can apply, such as

WP:PRIMARY where the article is entirely sourced to databases, though even that depends on your definition of primary source, but those are exceptions. BilledMammal (talk
