Can someone fix this article? --WestJet (talk) 12:07, 23 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

 Fixed (I assume you meant the vandalism and broken infobox on Shawn Williams (lacrosse)). --Yarnalgo _talk to me 03:37, 24 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

A request has been made to tag & auto-assess articles in the scope of this project based on categories and/or auto-assess the project's unassessed articles.

To auto-assess, Xenobot Mk V (talk · contribs) looks for a {{stub}} template on the article, or inherits the class rating from other project banners (see here for further details).

Feel free to raise any questions or concerns regarding this process. The task will commence after 72 hours if there are no objections.

Hadronic Matter An overview

An example of a book cover, taken from Book:Hadronic Matter

As detailed in last week's Signpost, WikiProject Wikipedia books is undertaking a cleanup all Wikipedia books. Particularly, the {{saved book}} template has been updated to allow editors to specify the default covers of the books. Title, subtitle, cover-image, and cover-color can all be specified, and an HTML preview of the cover will be generated and shown on the book's page (an example of such a cover is found on the right). Ideally, all books in Category:Book-Class lacrosse articles should have covers.

If you need help with the {{saved book}} template, or have any questions about books in general, see Help:Books, Wikipedia:Books, and Wikipedia:WikiProject Wikipedia-Books, or ask me on my talk page. Also feel free to join WikiProject Wikipedia-Books, as we need all the help we can get.

The WikiProject Unreferenced Biographies of Living Persons (UBLPs) aims to reduce the number of unreferenced biographical articles to under 30,000 by June 1, primarily by enabling WikiProjects to easily identify UBLP articles in their project's scope. There were over 52,000 unreferenced BLPs in January 2010 and this has been reduced to 32,665 as of May 16. A bot is now running daily to compile a list of all articles that are in both Category:All unreferenced BLPs and have been tagged by a WikiProject. Note that the bot does NOT place unreferenced tags or assign articles to projects - this has been done by others previously - it just compiles a list.

Your Project's list can be found at Wikipedia:WikiProject Lacrosse/Unreferenced BLPs. As of May 17 you have approximately 48 articles to be referenced. The list of all other WikiProject UBLPs can be found at Wikipedia:WikiProject Unreferenced Biographies of Living Persons/WikiProjects.

Your assistance in reviewing and referencing these articles is greatly appreciated. If you have any questions, please don't hestitate to ask either at WT:URBLP or at my talk page. Thanks, The-Pope (talk) 17:19, 17 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I saw there were similar articles created recently for other college sports (football, hockey, and basketball), and decided to make one of these for lacrosse head coaches. The arbitrary cut-off that I used was 250 wins.

I used the 2009 NCAA record book and added the past seasons results for active coaches, but did notice that the NCAA record book does not count Dick Edell's record at the University of Baltimore (1973–1975), which would put him at either 237 or 282 wins, depending on whether you count those or not. To my knowledge, UBalt was Division II at the time, so those wins should count towards his all-time NCAA record. Oddly, the NCAA record book counted Richie Meade's wins/losses at UBalt from 1979 to 1982, so I don't know if there was an oversight with Edell or whether there were NCAA violations or something of which I am not aware (and sort of doubt) during his tenure there. Anyone have anything on this? Strikehold (talk) 01:59, 11 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

re: Dick Edell

• I see nothing 'suspicious' in U B's schedule for that period. U B's 1973 schedule is tough with opponents Ohio Wesleyan, Roanoke, Maryland (1973 DI champ), Hofstra (#6 seed DI), Washington Shoremen (USILA finalist), Towson, UMBC & Washington & Lee (#4 seed DI). Baltimore reached the USILA (non-Division I year-end tournament) quarterfinals against Washington beating Roanoke to get there. Further research -- "5-12-75 Salisbury Times - Ohio Wesleyan and Morgan State, ranked 10th and llth in last week's USILA College Division poll were included in the (tournament) field over the teams which ranked seventh, eighth and ninth — Roanoke, Adelphi and Baltimore U". UB's schedule looks legitimate, nothing so far on any violations. I'd suggest including Baltimore's wins/losses as part of Edell's overall coaching record. Thanks ! --10stone5 (talk) 01:11, 4 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• Thanks for checking into that. Edell's UB record is included in the list and on his article. I had the feeling that the NCAA figure was wrong, but it is bizarre that they just didn't count the UB games for Edell, while they did for I think Richie Meade. Strikehold (talk) 21:13, 5 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I have caught what appear to be a few more errors in the NCAA Record Book: It puts Richie Meade as UBalt head coach in 1979 (while the UBalt yearbook and Meade's Navy bio say he arrived in 1980), and it may also have incorrect number of wins for Jim (Ace) Adams (284 vice 286 or 287)... I wonder if wins/losses against club teams may be partly to blame for the differing numbers though? Strikehold (talk) 04:32, 12 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• F*** the NCAA record book. I had a great link for this, might have come from some Hopkins pre-game notes. I'll see if I can find it. Meanwhile, I like what you've developed - and will be glad to verify as much as possible, and of course will link to this page. Thanks ! --10stone5 (talk) 17:09, 12 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Version 0.8 is a collection of Wikipedia articles selected by the Wikipedia 1.0 team for offline release on USB key, DVD and mobile phone. Articles were selected based on their assessed importance and quality, then article versions (revisionIDs) were chosen for trustworthiness (freedom from vandalism) using an adaptation of the WikiTrust algorithm.

We would like to ask you to review the Lacrosse articles and revisionIDs we have chosen. Selected articles are marked with a diamond symbol (♦) to the right of each article, and this symbol links to the selected version of each article. If you believe we have included or excluded articles inappropriately, please contact us at Wikipedia talk:Version 0.8 with the details. You may wish to look at your WikiProject's articles with cleanup tags and try to improve any that need work; if you do, please give us the new revisionID at Wikipedia talk:Version 0.8. We would like to complete this consultation period by midnight UTC on Monday, October 11th.

We have greatly streamlined the process since the Version 0.7 release, so we aim to have the collection ready for distribution by the end of October, 2010. As a result, we are planning to distribute the collection much more widely, while continuing to work with groups such as One Laptop per Child and Wikipedia for Schools to extend the reach of Wikipedia worldwide. Please help us, with your WikiProject's feedback!

I have been working on updating some NLL pages for the upcoming season and have noticed that most teams which have rosters on their page are horribly out of date (we're talking years behind). I believe a major reason for this is that next to each player's name is their nationality. This makes it way too hard to update because often times it is EXTREMELY difficult to find where a lesser known player was born. As such, I am starting to remove these flags from the roster section of each team's page. I hope that nobody here disagrees with this as it really isn't pertinent information anyway, and it will make it a lot easier to keep this information up to date! --Xander756 (talk) 21:30, 1 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

There is a page for McEneaney, highly regarded Cornell attackman who played in the mid-late 1970s and who died in the Towers on 9/11. There is also a Notre Dame defenseman McAnaney who played in the late 80s, early 90s is living and working as a lacrosse announcer for ESPN online sports broadcasts.

I do not know how to edit disambiguation links, and I don't know enough about the announcer McAnaney to know whether he would merit a page under the living persons standards for lacrosse. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.180.228.39 (talk) 21:17, 27 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome to the Lacrosse WikiProject. We are a group dedicated to improving Wikipedia's coverage of the sport of lacrosse.

(For more information on WikiProjects, please see Wikipedia:WikiProject and the Guide to WikiProjects).

The goal of this project is to organize the efforts of those working on articles about and concerning the sport of lacrosse, including all four distinct versions of the sport: men's field lacrosse, box lacrosse (or indoor lacrosse), women's lacrosse, and intercrosse or soft-stick lacrosse. Each has its own article with a link from the main lacrosse article.

All professional or highest level of play lacrosse leagues should have articles describing the teams, former teams, champions and past champions, awards, etc.

List of leagues:

• Athletes Unlimited Lacrosse - women's, Athletes Unlimited model
• Major Series Lacrosse - box, Senior A, summer, Ontario
• National Lacrosse League - box, winter/spring, United States and Canada
• Premier Lacrosse League - field, touring model, United States and Canada
• Western Lacrosse Association - box, Senior A, summer, British Columbia
• Major League Lacrosse - defunct field league
• Women's Professional Lacrosse League - defunct women's, United States

All team pages need improvement. They should have several prose sections, including history, championship descriptions, notable years, and notable players. Perhaps arena info or broadcasting. Tables should include championships, yearly records, roster of players, head coaches, maybe draft picks. Example: Philadelphia Wings (1987–2014). Or any NFL, NBA, MLB, or NHL team page.

WPLL team pages are stubs. Also, almost all WLA and MSL teams are stubs with very few citations. Finally, PLL team pages are mostly statistics, with very little prose content. An external link to the PLL's stat page would suffice for the individual stats table.

• {{Infobox lacrosse player}} should be used on all player pages.
• Player pages should include the year(s) that the player has played, which team(s) he/she played for (in as many leagues as possible), and should include stats (at least for NLL, PLL and MLL) if possible.
• Any participation in international lacrosse should be mentioned as well.

Create and improve pages on tournaments and championships - Mann Cup, Minto Cup, NCAA, Heritage Cup, World Lacrosse championships, other international tournaments, etc.

Expand international lacrosse articles.

clean-up listing for Lacrosse/Archive4

• Recruit new members
• Expand stub articles, especially high importance stubs
• Create pages for Premier Lacrosse League team’s seasons and move information such as stats and rosters from the team main page to those pages.
• Fix individual players articles. So many of them are outdated or badly written and need to be fixed.
• Expand women's lacrosse article. Include description of positions (cover point, 1-3 home, etc.), penalties section should be prose, & an explanation of equipment differences, etc.
• Expand articles Athletes Unlimited Lacrosse, season pages should include week-by-week standings updates(at least for the top four) and week-by-week draft selections and results.
• Expand existing articles on Major League Lacrosse and Premier Lacrosse League teams.
• Expand existing articles on Canadian Senior A summer box lacrosse leagues WLA and MSL) and teams (history, records, etc.).
• Create pages for inductees and teams/associations referenced in National Lacrosse League Hall of Fame & Canadian Hall of Fame.
• Create bio articles for any of the National Lacrosse Hall of Fame members. Information about them can be found at their HOF bios.
• Create NLL Team Season articles
• Create articles on the current ILIndoor top 20 NLL players: [1]. Create new articles on current and former NLL players. Current players can be found at NLL rosters article.
• Create and improve articles on Inside Lacrosse's 20 best field lacrosse players. Randy Staats, Zach Currier, Bryan Cole, and Justin Guterding are all top 10 pro outdoor players without articles.
• Go through Unassessed lacrosse articles and add class and importance parameters (see assessment for details)
• Tag lacrosse-related articles with {{WikiProject Lacrosse |class= |importance= }} on their talk page, filling in class and importance
• Create new and expand existing articles on international lacrosse. Create an article for Lacrosse in Ireland
• Find members of HOF who already have articles and properly link them
• Images for articles in Category:Wikipedia requested images of lacrosse
• Create and improve articles about Tewaaraton Award winners. They are all notable enough for articles. See {{Tewaaraton Trophy}} and tewaaraton.com.
• Find a criteria for creating articles about lacrosse players for WP:ATH. A conversation on the talk page was started. Add opinions there to get to a consensus for what the criteria should be.
• Expand articles on the Women's Professional Lacrosse League and each of it’s teams.

Note that pages tagged with a class of "Image" do not appear in this table.

The assessment system allows the WikiProject to monitor the quality of articles in its subject areas, and to prioritize work on these articles. The class and importance should be filled in on the parameters of the {{WikiProject Lacrosse}} template on the article's talk page.

These guidelines can help to determine what class should be assigned to an article.

Please feel free to add yourself here, and to indicate any areas of particular interest.

League and team logos should contain this:
{{Non-free logo|sports logos}}

Note that logos (teams, leagues, etc.) require a "Fair use" tag and rationale. Here's the page from Image:BaltimoreThunder.png as an example:

{{Non-free media rationale
|Description    = Logo of the [[Baltimore Thunder]] lacrosse team (now defunct)
|Source         = http://www.logoserver.com/MILLNLL.html
|Article        = Baltimore Thunder
|Portion        = Entire image
|Purpose        = for fair use:
*This image is a low-resolution image of the logo.
*This image does not limit the copyright holder's ability to profit from the original source, nor will it dilute the importance or
recognition of the logo in connection with its organization.
*This image enhances the article in which it's displayed, as it provides an immediate means of visual identification of the subject to
the reader more capably than the textual description alone.
*Use of the logo visually identifies the organization in a manner that mere prose cannot, and meets all criteria in WP:NFCC.
|Resolution     = Yes
|Replaceability = Not replaceable

There are two player templates; one for actual rosters and another for lists.

The {{Player}} template should be used for rosters and roster templates, where the {{Lacrosse player list}} template should be used for lists.

{{Lacrosse player start}}
{{Lacrosse player list | no=num | pos=pos | nat=Canada | name=name | other=other }}
{{Lacrosse player mid}}
{{Lacrosse player end}}

Which looks like this:

No. Position Player num pos name (other)

No. Position Player

{{Field Lacrosse Leagues}}:

group, I noticed that it was tough to find info on the players. I'm guessing a player playing at the World's should be notable. I'll look to add a squad list to the 2014 World Lacrosse Championship. Any templates for the National teams? --Coppercanuck (talk) 21:50, 14 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Dear lacrosse experts: Is this a notable lacrosse team? Should we be looking for reliable sources, or should the page be deleted as a stale draft? —Anne Delong (talk) 15:06, 16 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, this is a notable lacrosse club... it is professional, features multiple National Lacrosse League alumni, and is a team in the second strongest pro box lacrosse league in the world. DMighton (talk) 02:29, 2 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, DMighton. I have delayed the deletion of the draft for six months to give time to find some references. —Anne Delong (talk) 02:41, 2 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hello there! As you may already know, most WikiProjects here on Wikipedia struggle to stay active after they've been founded. I believe there is a lot of potential for WikiProjects to facilitate collaboration across subject areas, so I have submitted a grant proposal with the Wikimedia Foundation for the "WikiProject X" project. WikiProject X will study what makes WikiProjects succeed in retaining editors and then design a prototype WikiProject system that will recruit contributors to WikiProjects and help them run effectively. Please review the proposal here and leave feedback. If you have any questions, you can ask on the proposal page or leave a message on my talk page. Thank you for your time! (Also, sorry about the posting mistake earlier. If someone already moved my message to the talk page, feel free to remove this posting.) Harej (talk) 22:47, 1 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
