I was under the impression that the list goes from the least recent team to the most recent team. There doesn't seem to be any concrete policy for how teams should be listed on the talk page you provided. --Sparkhurst 21:30, 14 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, I just looked at that. Sorry, I thought it was decided. I guess either way is fine. Maybe I'll bring it up again and everyone can decide on a format for continuity. Sorry to go reverting your edits before its decided! --Schmackity 12:28, 15 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Coaches Table
Okay, here are your answers.
When it comes to calculating winning percentage with overtime losses, count them like ties - half a win in the standings.
Your spacing on the table is normal. If you don't have a set defined length for each column, it will automatically fit to the longest entry in that column. In the case of the Games Coached column, this means that column are as long as the "Games Coached" header, since it's the longest entry in that column. In short, that kind of extra spacing is normal.
And thank you for the complement on the Bruins table. You did a pretty good job yourself with the Wings' coaches table. –NeoChaosX (talk | contribs) 19:15, 15 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Userpage
I changed your userpage a bit if you don't mind, see the changes in the history page. Also -
Hello. Please don't forget to provide an edit summary. Thanks, and happy editing.
Thanks for the clarification. My thought is centered on focusing on the subject of utmost importance first before others. However, if the standard format requires that the image caption reads as such, I can comply. I'll reword the caption in part to your initial edit and we'll see if other reader have any problems with this revision. ╫ 25◀RingADing▶ 15:33, 6 September 2006 (UTC) ╫[reply]

Hello. Please don't forget to provide an edit summary. Thanks, and happy editing.
Specifically on the Red Wings page where you often revert. They're good reverts, but you have to let the user know why or else it's just going to come right back. Thanks! scsgoal31 00:50, 12 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Detroit Red Wings Training Staff
Hello Schmackity,
I'm Currently trying to concentrate on Biographies of NHL Training Staff. I Came across a name that I can't find any information on. Since you are a Red Wings fan maybe you could help me out.
W. Humeniuk was the Assistant Trainer to
Ross "Lefty" Wilson
.
If you know anything about this man (Particularly What his First Name was) or where I would go about fnding information on Him Could you please Help Me.
Thanks that helped a lot. The page for Walter Humeniuk is started check it out and tell me what you think ?
My Next Project's are Carl Mattson and Walter Crossman both of whom were Red Wings trainers. If you know anything about either of those men it would be a big help.
4 December, 2006, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Air Zoo, which you created. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the "Did you know?" talk page
I'm once again trying to deal with obscure Stanley Cup winners again. I would like to create a page on Nancy Beard who had something to do with the 2002 Detroit Red Wings championship. She is no longer with the team so there is nothing on the official website about her. Do you happen to know anything about her or where I could go to find information on people like this.
There is also the issue of Bill Tibbs whose Name appears on the 1952 Stanley Cup [1] but He is not listed as a player on any of the offical Detroit rosters of that time do you know who He is and whether He played any other role with the team (i.e. Trainer) and if any information exists on this man where would it be located ?
Thanks,
Michael Drew 04:15, 15 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the information about my previous questions. You seem to be better at finding these things than me.
My next question revolves around Walter Crossman who was with the team during the 1950s and was still with the team during their Stanley Cup Championship seasons in 1997 and 1998.
Another question on Stanley Cup related matters. Did Jacques Martin win the Stanley Cup with the Colorado Avalanche in 1996 before going to the Ottawa Senators. I've been trying to find out but am getting nowhere.
This question is not for a Detroit Red Wings Related Article but for a Toronto Maple Leafs one. It relates to the 1947-48 Toronto Maple Leafs Stanley Cup Team. On the 1948 Stanley Cup Plaque [2] H. MacIntyre and R.J. Galloway are named as "Team Doctors". I've been trying to find information on them however I can't seem to find even what their first names were. Do you think you could help me on this one.

Pages on NHL trainers/staff
Hey there Schmackity,
I'm in a bit of a problem and wondering if you could help me, somebody has decided to delete all of my articles on NHL trainers and other personell. (Many of whom have won multiple Stanley Cups). Maybe you know of how to stop this ? I spent a lot of time researching these people myself along with the assistance you provided so maybe you could give me some advice on how to proceed ?
etc. These articles like most of the one's he creates are one or two sentence stubs with little if any information and not much use to anyone. I'm wondering if you can tell whether he's useing somekind of template ? Also some of his articles have information that is factually wrong and links that go to information on a completely different player ! I've tried to fix some of them but it's very tidious. I'm wondering whether I/we should just manually fix every mistake he's made or norminate dome of them for deleting or what esle should we do. Is there any point in telling him to do more research into the articles he creates before he creates them ?
I'd very much like to hear what you think on this situation
Thanks,
Michael Drew 01:59, 26 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Please be aware that the Wikiproject has decided to make one or two sentence stubs for as many players as we can as we decided it was better to have a two sentence stub than no article at all. Once we have reached the point where everyone is added we are then going to expand them into full articles. As for mistakes or incorrect links, that is what the rest of us editors are here for to fix those sort of things. So no we should not nominate them and no we do not need him to do more research. If anything he is doing a thankless job that most of us are glad its him doing and not us. --Djsasso 19:42, 26 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Dear Schmackity! You are receiving this newsletter because you have signed up as a member of WikiProject Ice Hockey. The purpose of this newsletter is to update on the goings on of the project, as there have been major changes, and a lot of new recognized content in the past few weeks. If you are an inactive user, you probably won't recognize the new and improved state of the WikiProject!
In the past few weeks, there has been quite heated discussion about the use of diacritics in article name. The current guideline is using diacritics in the pages of articles of all player names which require them, but redirects are exempt.
By Maxim
There have been two new task forces started within the WikiProject to coordinate major topics.
Sweden Ice Hockey task force
This task force was initiated by
Featured article status. It covers all Swedish clubs, leagues and competitions and associated articles, players and coaches that are Swedish, or have played/coached for a Swedish club, and arenas in Sweden. They plan to eventually operate as a sort of a sub-project, which will have its own articles for creation, ranking importance and quality of articles, and co-ordinate article improvement. Its current members are Krm500, Bamsefar75, and CLAES
Featured Topic status. Although it currently meets the required article count, the task force wishes to improve it further. Its area of coverage is very similar to the Sweden Ice Hockey task force. Its members are Bsroiaadn, JHMM13, FutureNJGov, Sportskido8, Michael Greiner, JRWalko, and Soxrock
. The page has been quite popular; since it was created on July 21, there have been six completed requests. There are four currently outstanding requests:
By Maxim
On July 12, Kaiser matias announced that he had completed assessing all the articles with a {{ice hockey}} tag, sorting them into Category:Unassessed Ice Hockey articles. Kaiser matias has ranked about 9000 articles in that category, and most were stubs, and "have no information at all", according to him. Everybody is encouraged to expand the stubs into real articles. This effort took around 5 months. A big thanks goes to Kaiser matias from me and all the project.

Re -Template:NHLTeamSeasonGood point on the older seasons. I've added a parameter for both the Prince of Wales Trophy and O'Brien Trophy for the older NHL playoff and regular season champions. The header for the Detroit Cougars is a tough one. I could modify it to force the editor to use a wikilink in the template itself (as one must do for divisions right now), but that would require editing over 200 articles to fix what that would break. Leaving it pointing to the disambig page for now might be best.
Incidentally, and this is simply my personal opinion, but I think that
1926-27 Detroit Cougars season, as that was the proper name of the team in that year. Regards, Resolute 00:09, 5 October 2007 (UTC)[reply

We are working to create a new task force within the WikiProject to deal with topics related to the Pittsburgh Penguins. It hasn't been created yet; but it aims to expand articles based on former and current Pittsburgh Penguins players and articles. Good luck!
More editors are needed to help out with the newsletter. The newsletter creator doesn't have an infinite nor perfect supply of ideas, and thus he might omit some interesting news.
