Disambiguation link notification for April 11
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited 2015 Cleveland Indians season, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Carlos Carrasco. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

NFL results
Re. "remove unnecessary "results" section. No other season article has it and if someone is looking for a specific team's result they can go to that team's page", I have reversed your removal. The reason I created that section is precisely because it is manifestly totally unreasonable to expect people to have to open and read 32! articles just to find out basic information like this. You should also note that the tables provide links to those pages, should people want to know more about the specific game - so it hardly makes sense to remove those links simply because the pages they link to exist. There are many examples like this on Wikipedia where the same information is presented in different formats depending on the purpose - obviously there is a different purpose to listing a single teams results compared to all 32 for each week of the regular season. And of course, it is not reasonable to expect the information to exist in all season articles before it will be accepted in one - if that standard was universal, nothing would have ever been added to Wikipedia. Ricard62 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 19:44, 30 December 2015 (UTC)
- Before making such drastic and unprecedented changes, it is a good idea to open a discussion on the talk page to get input from other users. From the edit history on the season page, multiple other users agree that the NFL season page is not the place for the list of results, if such a place exists on Wikipedia at all.

Cleveland sports curse
Hi Frank, it's not a big deal to me whether the name change is mentioned on the curse page or not, but from a pure editing standpoint, the header for the section says "Lake Erie/ Cleveland Monsters" and then never mentions the name change in the body of the article, so it is confusing to any reader who is not familiar with Cleveland or hockey. I note also that the Monsters still have the Calder Cup but are now referred to in the press and everywhere else as the "Cleveland Monsters" while the article talks about them winning as the "Lake Erie Monsters". It's true that if the person clicks on the link they then get an article on Cleveland Monsters, which they then have to read to learn about the name change, but people may not read that far. Just seems weird to call them the "Lake Erie/ Cleveland Monsters" in a header and then just "Lake Erie Monsters" in the article without ever explaining the name change, and to me it is part of a general tendency on Wiki for editors who know a lot about their subject to assume that all readers will similarly be familiar. However, I'm not going to get into an edit war over it. Cheers, TheBlinkster (talk) 12:43, 2 November 2016 (UTC)

Ohio Wikimedians User Group - Invitation
Hi Frank Anchor,
I'm Kevin, one of the founding members of the Ohio Wikimedians User Group. Created in July 2016, we're working to be a central group of Ohio Wikimedians who organize and support offline events, promote the Wikimedia movement in Ohio, build connections throughout our state, and above all, support each other. We already have a handful of members and have worked to support multiple events, including Wiki Loves Monuments in the United States and several Art+Feminism edit-a-thons at universities throughout Ohio.
I wanted to reach out to you and invite you to join the Ohio Wikimedians User Group. Being a part of the user group will allow easy communication between active Ohio editors, notifications of upcoming events in the Ohio area, and, if you're interested, the opportunity to help organize events such as edit-a-thons or workshops. Some notes:
- All members receive a monthly newsletter with recent happenings, upcoming events, and more. Check out our April newsletter here.
- This Thursday at 8:30 EST, we're having our first online meeting. Check out our meeting page here for more details, an agenda, and a section to sign up if you'd like to join us. Topics will include introductions and brainstorming for future projects.
Right now we have a Wikipedia Takes Columbus photo event going on, a Wiknic coming up this summer, and opportunities to attend the upcoming Ohio Private Academic Libraries Conference. If you're interested in joining us, feel free to add your name here - and feel free to reach out to me (or post on the user group's talk page) with questions or discussions. Thanks! ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 07:29, 18 April 2017 (UTC)

Cleveland Cavaliers lead
Hi there, in relation to the lead section at Cleveland Cavaliers, it was written that way on purpose. The WP:LEAD "The lead serves as an introduction to the article and a summary of its most important contents" so it's going to have duplicate info and summarize the most important aspects of the article. In fact, when a lead is properly developed, it shouldn't have any info that isn't elsewhere in the article, but should also be larger than just the basic "this is the team, this is where they play, and this is the owner". The larger an article is, the larger the lead will be, and for the most part, the lead should be fairly stable needing minimal updates. In writing the lead for the Cavs article, I also looked at Toronto Raptors as a model since it is a Featured Article. It also uses a brief history summary as its bulk. The history section in the Cavs article, in turn, is also a summary of the larger History of the Cleveland Cavaliers article, more detailed than the lead, but not a copy of the main article. Within this article, it's reasonable for the history section to have a few subheadings or at least multiple paragraphs, just not the level of detail found at the main history article. --JonRidinger (talk) 18:51, 13 June 2017 (UTC)

NFL team drafts
I understand where you're coming from with this, but those teams owned those picks, at least for a while, and it's useful for readers to know at a glance why a certain team doesn't have a first-round pick, for example. – PeeJay 09:45, 22 March 2018 (UTC)
- Understood. Thank you Frank AnchorTalk 13:37, 22 March 2018 (UTC)
History of the Cleveland Cavaliers
Hi there. Regarding this revert – you re-entered your erroneous "Jamess" addition. Regarding my change to the section title in November – I don't need to provide a reason for a title change like that. Why is it you feel your title choice is specifically better? It's your opinion against my opinion. As you can see, I didn't change it back to "Perennial title contenders" again in the wake of your change here. I'm not one to edit war. I'm also getting a WP:OWNERSHIP vibe from your edits. I had checked the edit history from my edit on November 4 to present and saw the section title had been changed. I preferred my title (just as you prefer yours) and changed it back. Simple as that. Regarding your "explanation was not necessary" comment – I disagree, because if you had left an edit summary with something like "revert section title change" or with something more profound, I wouldn't have changed it back. Anywho, happy editing. DaHuzyBru (talk) 16:18, 28 March 2018 (UTC)
- Okay, no problem. And I do not intend to take an "ownership" position. Generally, history sections are defined by players, coaches, owners, etc. especially during winning times. The "Perennial Title Contenders" title is fine too. Just a little generic and non-specific in my opinion. Also, thank you for correcting my misguided revert to "Jamess" Frank AnchorTalk 16:56, 28 March 2018 (UTC)

Philly Special
Hello I am RavenLord64 the guy who put the Philly Special on the NFL Lore page. You seemed opposed to the adding of the Philly Special yet on the 5th of this month you undid an edit that removed it.

RavenLord64 (talk) 00:20, 8 April 2018 (UTC)
- I am still opposed to its inclusion at this point. However, I re-added it to the page out of respect for the discussion that is currently taking place on the talk page. Frank AnchorTalk 04:31, 8 April 2018 (UTC)
