Notes/References

This appears to be mislabeled but another of example of highlighting every loss, or select loss, or wins is not what these entries are for.--BelBivDov (talk) 15:35, 22 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

External links

There are Nineteen entries in a "References" section, that do not appear to be used in the article, so are "future sources" or "External links". There was even a 2013 "External links" tag in the section.

Three seems to be an acceptable number and of course, everyone has their favorite to add for four. The problem is that none is needed for article promotion.

ELpoints #3) states: Links in the "External links" section should be kept to a minimum. A lack of external links or a small number of external links is not a reason to add external links.
LINKFARM states: There is nothing wrong with adding one or more useful content-relevant links to the external links section of an article; however, excessive lists can dwarf articles and detract from the purpose of Wikipedia. On articles about topics with many fansites, for example, including a link to one major fansite may be appropriate.
WP:ELMIN: Minimize the number of links.
WP:ELCITE: ...and access dates are not appropriate in the external links section. Do not use {{cite web}} or other citation templates in the External links section. Citation templates are permitted in the Further reading section.

Trimmed the section, removed the tag, and copied the links here should anyone wish to incorporate some into the article.
