[edit] The main Yankees article

I think we should concentrate on this article first. It's good to work on all Yankee articles, but this should be a top priority I think. It's not too far away from GA-status. Sportskido8 17:43, 22 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Assessment?

Have you considered contacting Wikipedia:WikiProject Baseball and asking them if they would be willing to add sections to their banner which could then also be used for your own project? The WikiProject Australia banner on the Talk:Adelaide page shows you what these sorts of banners look like in use. By doing so, you would be able to probably get separate assessment data for your own project, and help reduce the number of increasingly problematic separate banners which are being added to the various articles out there. If they don't have anyone able to set up their banner to accomodate your project, let me know on my talk page and I'll see what I can do to find someone to do so or maybe try to do it myself.

[edit] All Time Roster

I was working on the New York Yankees all-time roster before I went away for a little bit and since I returned, some editor has literally added hundreds of red links and not only that most of the players he added have not even played a game with the team. Do we really need those players on the list when, 1. We don't even know if they ever played a game with a team 2. they are not notable and 3. they just make the article look like crap?TheNextOne 00:39, 23 September 2007 (UTC)

  • If the players have not played a game in the majors then then are not notable per WP:Baseball guidelines. I'd talk to Fabrictramp and/or post on the WP:Baseball talk page before doing anything too drastic. --Michael Greiner 00:57, 23 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Yankees-Mets Rivalry Article

[edit] Yankees Pic

Should the wikiproject pic of A-Rod be changed to Derek Jeter, or Girardi or something else updated? --Yankeesrj12 02:36, 2 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Andrew Brackman

The article about Andrew Brackman is nominated for AFD. If there is anyone in this project that would be interested in helping find more references and to improve the article, I'd appreciate it as I think that this article should be kept! Thank you!BWH76 (talk) 09:05, 26 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Question about To Do List

There are quite a few articles on current roster members that are very basic and in desperate need of work. Many are reference-less although there is an incredible amount of info available on the net. To list only four of these players include:

I am surprised to see that even Joba Chamberlain's article needs a lot of work! I'm trying to go through some of these articles, but would appreciate any help in getting each entry for the members of the 40-man roster up to snuff! BWH76 (talk) 13:37, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
