Derrick Henry

Actually after taking another look, you are right these are actually useful. Sometimes people go over the top with the headers, but not in this case. Feel free to revert, tho I would change the second one to something like "rushing yards leader" or something along those lines as it's kinda vague just saying leading the league.-- Yankees10 16:46, 21 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Dennis Kelly (American football)

Hi, you reverted my edit without explanation so I reverted you. In disputes, it is generally advised to at least provide an edit summary explaining your side since this is a collaborative community. Eagles 24/7 (C) 17:59, 9 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Eagles247: I undid your edit as I was about to make a very significant edit to the article, as you previously removed those subheadings as "these sections will never fill more than a sentence or two for a reserve offensive linemen [sic]". But when you undid my edit while I was working on that next edit, my edit was cancelled and I had to start over from your edit, and I forgot what I was going to add. I was going to give my reason in my next edit, but you made me start over. I should have probably said why when I first undid your edit. DeathTrain (talk) 19:20, 11 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

In 2013, Kelly played in exactly 0 games for the Eagles, and in 2014 he started in all three games in played in. I do not believe having sections just for these seasons is appropriate, as there isn't much else content to add there, and entire sections should not consist of 1-2 sentences a piece. Eagles 24/7 (C) 18:54, 12 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Eagles247:Maybe for the Eagles seasons, but not for the Titans seasons. But, moreover, what is wrong with having some sections only "1-2 sentences a piece [sic]"? The article needs to be expanded. DeathTrain (talk) 14:46, 13 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I'm referring to the Eagles sections only. I don't believe these sections can be expanded more than they already are, and permanent stub sections should be merged. Eagles 24/7 (C) 14:51, 13 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Eagles247: Alright, maybe we can compromise and only merge the Eagles seasons. However, we will probably need a consensus, so how about we create a section on the talk page? DeathTrain (talk) 15:34, 13 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I posted on the talk page. Eagles 24/7 (C) 15:47, 13 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Heads-up

Just a fair warning, stuff like "I expect a prompt reply" isn't kosher here. Wikipedia is a volunteer service, we have other things going on in our life, other things we are working on, etc. Implying or outright stating that editors should be at your beck and call is ridiculous and borderline offensive. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 21:39, 28 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Gonzo fan2007: I apologize, but I just want to resolve this. Usually, if someone does not defend their position and ignores the other side's proposals to compromise, then it gives me the impression that they do not want to resolve this and/or that they are not taking it seriously. I will also admit that I found UCO2009bluejay earlier reply suggesting that "I just want my way" to be condescending, uncivil and assuming bad faith, which may have factored in my response. Note that my previous replies were more than civil, and it is only after UCO2009bluejay less-than-civil earlier reply followed by a period of continuous ignoration (several days) that I began being explicit in my expectation of a reply. --DeathTrain (talk) 21:54, 28 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Sometimes we also need to accept that there is no support for our (great) ideas. A lot of people have commented on the topic. People are not ignoring you, but maybe the topic is exhausted.—Bagumba (talk) 01:31, 29 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Appreciate the apology. As Bagumba observed, sometimes a lack of interest in an issue is more out of frustration that it keeps being brought up, even after editor's opinions have been made clear about something.

Elaborating a bit on what I said at WP:NFL, NFL bios generally follow two molds: professional career broken up by team or by season. Generally, I am not supportive of the breakdown by year. If a player had a short career, than a year-by-year breakdown is hardly necessary; if they had a long career, it becomes a massive, tedious mess (i.e. Peyton Manning). In both cases, the year-by-year approach invites recentism and excess detail. Thus, I always prefer a team-based approach. And with this type of approach, the section headers are somewhat pre-determined. That said, this approach doesn't preclude sub-sections. See Bob Mann (American football), which I have going through WP:FAC right now. You will note year sub-sections where applicable and some sub-sections based on important components of his career (Race, Legacy, Charges of blackballing, etc). That said, sub-sections shouldn't be overly specific (1k-1k, First Team All-Pro, etc) because they aren't meant to convey information to the reader, they are meant to organize the information in a clear way. Hope that all makes sense. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 15:58, 29 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Gonzo fan2007: Do you believe in any sort of exception to this? If I condense seasons like with the Bob Mann article, can they still have titles, like with the Lawrence Taylor article? For example, if I were to condense the Titans seasons of the Delanie Walker article, could I still put headers like 2013-2014, 2015-2017: Pro Bowl seasons, 2018-2019: Injury-plagued seasons? What about for sections on college careers, which are normally no longer than four seasons? DeathTrain (talk) 23:47, 29 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I don't have the final say, I am just relating my experience and what I gleaned from past discussions on this topic. I really don't see a need or use for editorializing the section titles, especially since I generally don't support section titles being individual years. That said, since their really isn't a set standard, you are welcome to gain consensus at individual pages. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 17:12, 31 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Gonzo fan2007: What about for college seasons? --DeathTrain (talk) 23:29, 31 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Gonzo fan2007: Should sections for college seasons be season-by-season as they are usually no longer than four seasons at most? DeathTrain (talk) 00:23, 7 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I don't see very many cases where season-by-season section headers are needed. Again, with recentism, recent college athletes like Joe Burrow get a lot of information, but it ends up being almost all game-by-game summaries, which is too detailed. Players like Herschel Walker are just a mess of too much info. That's my opinion and is probably not the gold-standard of Wikipedia. Generally a player's college section should cover awards won, season stats, team win/loss records, and record-breaking/championship/bowl games. Once it is cut down to that, section headers aren't usually needed. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 13:48, 7 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Gonzo fan2007:Do you believe in any exceptions to that? Do you think that the college career sections for articles such as those of Derrick Henry, Peyton Manning, Vince Young, Patrick Mahomes or Tim Tebow are acceptable? Should there be a benchmark where season-by-season headings is acceptable for college seasons? DeathTrain (talk) 20:12, 12 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I mean sure, like I said, this is just my belief. There are plenty others who think year-by-year headers are perfectly acceptable. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 20:36, 12 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Gonzo fan2007: So if you believe that "this approach doesn't preclude sub-sections", would you say that the original question of "Should the season sections for players have headers on them?" is resolved? You said it is a case-by-case basis in you reply to the section headers I proposed for the Delanie Walker article. DeathTrain (talk) 15:47, 15 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I feel like I have given you my opinion on the matter and I feel like you received a good amount of input at WP:NFL. I am not sure there is much more that I can provide you, as I don't make the final decisions on these things. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 17:48, 18 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Gonzo fan2007: Ok, so how can a final decision be made? DeathTrain (talk) 23:41, 27 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Good one

Deathtrain, I thought this edit of yours at Talk:Hungary was your best effort yet on the Talk page. You stuck to a good line of argumentation based on policy, avoided any distractions that caused some pushback earlier, and kept on the straight and narrow of improving the article. Bravo. I don't know how it's going to turn out, but it really is about improving the article, not "winning" or "losing", and if you can come away from it afterward however it ends, with a sense of satisfaction that you did well, that's a good thing. Keep going on that path. I think you've upped your game, here. Cheers, Mathglot (talk) 08:51, 27 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Mathglot: A similar discussion was also started in the talk page of the Russia article concerning whether Vladimir Putin should be mentioned in the lead section of the article. http://en.wiki.x.io/wiki/Talk:Russia#Putin_in_lead_section It might interest you. I believe that the tension between WP:DUE, WP:RECENT and WP:LEADFOLLOWSBODY is also relevant. DeathTrain (talk) 19:22, 31 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@DeathTrain:, I did have a look at that talk page, and even prepared a response with links showing how Russian, French, and German Wikipedias handle it. But in the end, it wasn't necessary, as HiLo48 and Moxy said pretty much all there was to say about it. At first, reading through the discussion I was disappointed at some of your repetitive comments there, until I realized they go back at least a week and then I cheered up. I believe you have really evolved even just since then based on the change in tone I saw in your comments at Talk:Hungary, and that you wouldn't make the same arguments now at Talk:Russia as you did before (or at least, wouldn't insist on them, let's say, once they'd been responded to). Hope I'm not wrong about that!

Having said that, you can maybe kind of get what you want with a mention of Putin, although not in that article. the governing principle again here, is WP:DUE imho, although as you mention, WP:RECENTISM and WP:LEADFOLLOWSBODY both enter into it. Regarding WP:DUE, the narrower the scope of an article, the more likely it is that some event or period within that scope is worth mentioning.

Try this: there's an imperfect analogy we can use, by looking at WP:DUE as fluid volume; it's imperfect, because WP:DUE is by no means this mathematical; but it might help you think about it as a principle of proportionality. So it goes like this: think of Putin's 30 years of service, as 30 drops of water—(two tablespoons/30 ml.), let's say. That makes Russia's 3000 years of history (or whatever, I'm not a Russia scholar) a 3-liter container. Now, if you pour the two "Putin tablespoons" into the 3-liter container, what have you got? Almost nothing: hardly visible in the bottom; i.e., WP:UNDUE. Now, suppose there was an article, History of modern Russia (there isn't; that's a redirect) starting with the Russian Empire in 1721. That's a span of 300 years, about a teacup (300 ml) of water. Now, the two tablespoons are definitely visible in the bottom of the teacup (so, possibly WP:DUE). And if you define Modern Russia as starting with the October Revolution (1917) now the container is only a double espresso cup (100 ml), and the "Putin" tablespoons fills up one third of it, so definitely WP:DUE and worth a mention in the lead.

The point here is, that the "Putin tablespoons" are a constant; whether it is worth mentioning Putin in the lead of some article, depends not on how important Putin is on his own, but in comparison to the scope of the article (the "size of the container"). So the same paragraph or sentence about Putin could be out of the question in "History of Asia", still wildly undue in "History of Russia", possibly due in "History of Russia since the Empire", and almost certainly DUE in "History of Russia since 1917". I hope this analogy makes sense! Mathglot (talk) 20:59, 31 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Mathglot: If it is unreasonable to mention Putin, could it still be appropriate to give some kind of elaboration to post-Soviet Russia in the lead section of the article, particularly concerning issues such as human rights or corruption? DeathTrain (talk) 21:40, 31 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

DeathTrain....take a look at this version of Venezuela (that you mentioned before) vs after cleanup....note links still there...but now just the facts.--Moxy 🍁 21:55, 31 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

DeathTrain, once again, anything post-Soviet in a "History of Russia" article, we're talking 3 decades in many centuries of history. I think if you *increased* the span of what you wanted to cover regarding human rights, it would be more justifiable. For example: can you expand the scope of the human rights content you want to add, instead of to post-Soviet Russia, to human rights in Russia since the Empire? In that case, it would be more likely to be WP:DUE. Certainly in the body of the article, you could say something about human rights; in the lead, that's not so clear. That's just my opinion, and to the extent that this is about improving the article, and other editors won't see it here, it would be better to discuss this on the article Talk page, rather than here. Mathglot (talk) 22:35, 31 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Moxy: I still notice that the lead of the Venezuela article still contains significant recentism. DeathTrain (talk) 00:29, 1 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Moxy: No reply? DeathTrain (talk) 02:05, 4 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

It does and should be cuddled...my intent was to show you how there is no need to name anyone but still provide information in the link.--Moxy 🍁 02:11, 4 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Moxy: I find that the last paragraph is very fragmented and lacks significant contextual information. Also, there is a link to President Carlos Andrés Pérez in the lead section. Even if individual leaders are not named, they are still referenced, directly or indirectly. DeathTrain (talk) 02:17, 4 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Yup ....normally there would be a link to an impeachment article.... however Venezuelan articles are underdeveloped....so in this case a direct link is needed to gain the information. Best move on from Wikipedia:Advocacy POV on broad topic overview articles.--Moxy 🍁 02:26, 4 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Moxy: Nonetheless, just by mentioning that "a President" was impeached, a specific leader is being referred to. The mention of the 1998 Presidential election and the Bolivarian Revolution in the third paragraph of the lead are also references to a specific leader (Hugo Chavez), as is the mention of the "incumbent government" in the fourth paragraph (Nicolas Maduro).

Hello. Thank you for your contribution to Wikipedia; however, I reverted your edit in the Isaiah Wilson article. It is unlikely readers would question the nationality of Wilson given that it is already indicated that he is an American football player and that he played with the Tennessee Titans and Miami Dolphins, both locations being in America, and that the article does not indicate he has any affiliation with any entity outside of the United States.

Also, as I just looked over your Talk page, it was clear to me that you are an active and constructive member of the Wikipedia community.

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material, the draft has been deleted. When you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.
