When do I continue? I am off from work today and would like to continue since I don't have a lot of free time. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.244.57.165 (talk) 18:30, 21 May 2014 (UTC)

- Muboshgu, with regards to the above editor, are we now ignoring WP:BASEBALL/N? Many of the articles this IP editor has now created or swapped from redirects fail the notability guidelines found there. For instance, the editor has moved Daniel Norris from redirect, but Norris has not satisfied any of the 5 requirements found there, and in my opinion should remain on the Blue Jays minor league players page per the provision for minor leaguers with coverage from reliable sources. Trut-h-urts man (T • C) 19:40, 21 May 2014 (UTC)
- I hadn't seen the Norris unmerge. I can accept Hursh and Lively, since I think they're on the borderline at worst. Norris I'm not sure of. Remember GNG supersedes BASE/N. I only have so much time to look into this right now. – Muboshgu (talk) 19:50, 21 May 2014 (UTC)
- After looking into it Norris may go along with Hursh and Lively in that "borderline" category. I have fixed up the page as well. Thanks for your input. Trut-h-urts man (T • C) 20:28, 21 May 2014 (UTC)

FYI, as per WP:TWODABS that you kindly redirected me to:
If there are only two topics to which a given title might refer, but neither one is the primary topic, or if both topics are obscure, then it is appropriate to have a disambiguation page at the base name. For example, John Quested is a disambiguation page for the two people by that name who can be found in the encyclopedia:
John Quested may refer to:
- John Quested (aviator) (1893–1948), English World War I flying ace
- John Quested (producer) (born 1935), film producer and owner and chairman of Goldcrest Films

AfD
Hi Mu. I know it was the nom's obligation to do a wp:before search, not yours, and you may not be watching the AfD at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/85th Street (Manhattan), so I am inviting you to take another look at the related article as it stands now (reflecting only a portion still of the RS material out there, but enough I think to support a review of your !vote). BTW, most street articles are predominantly about the buildings on the street and other landmarks on the street, and people who have lived on it. Though, of course, this article now does also discuss history and the like. The articles rarely discuss the street itself in terms of "it is asphalt, black, and x miles long," though they sometimes do so in summary fashion, and not as the main thrust of the article. Best. --Epeefleche (talk) 21:45, 9 June 2014 (UTC)

WikiCup 2014 June newsletter
After an extremely close race, Round 3 is over. 244 points secured a place in Round 4, which is comparable to previous years- 321 was required in 2013, while 243 points were needed in 2012. Pool C's Godot13 (submissions) was the round's highest scorer, mostly due to a 32 featured pictures, including both scans and photographs. Also from Pool C, Casliber (submissions) finished second overall, claiming three featured articles, including the high-importance Grus (constellation). Third place was Pool B's , whose contributions included featured articles Russian battleship Poltava (1894) and Russian battleship Peresvet. Pool C saw the highest number of participants advance, with six out of eight making it to the next round.
The round saw this year's first featured portal, with Sven Manguard (submissions) taking Portal:Literature to featured status. The round also saw the first good topic points, thanks to 12george1 (submissions) and the 2013 Atlantic hurricane season. This means that all content types have been claimed this year. Other contributions of note this round include a featured topic on Maya Angelou's autobiographies from Figureskatingfan (submissions), a good article on the noted Czech footballer Tomáš Rosický from Cloudz679 (submissions) and a now-featured video game screenshot, freely released due to the efforts of Sven Manguard (submissions).
The judges would like to remind participants to update submission pages promptly. This means that content can be checked, and allows those following the competition (including those participating) to keep track of scores effectively. This round has seen discussion about various aspects of the WikiCup's rules and procedures. Those interested in the competition can be assured that formal discussions about how next year's competition will work will be opened shortly, and all are welcome to voice their views then. If you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is at good article candidates, a featured process, or anywhere else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews. If you want to help out with the WikiCup, please do your bit to help keep down the review backlogs! Questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. Good luck!

MLB.com independence
Don't want to go off on a tangent at the Nakase DYK, but is there really a consensus that MLB.com is independent for GNG purposes? Personally, I wouldn't use it, as any notable person probably has enough sources even if MLB.com (or MiLB.com) didn't count.

No problem with the revert of Jacob Turner. I came across it last night and someone already had him with Chicago Cubs in the infobox. That is why I enclosed it in the <!- notation. I had also updated his stats through his last appearance, August 3; I should have done that in a separate revision because you reverted that also :(. I understand why you did what you did, because once a rumor starts somebody gets hyper and makes all kinds of changes before he actually appears in a game his new team. Some of the edits prior to mine where done by an IP and a new editor (User talk:Buck1980). I'll just back and bring Turner's stats up to date. Happy editing! Bob305 (talk) 20:21, 7 August 2014 (UTC)
