Re: Bruins Stat Box
[edit]Sorry, the term I'd intended to use was "deprecation". I hadn't noticed my mistake until now. You might have noticed that the right side of the table isn't uniform with the rest of the border -- that is, the right hand side of the frame has a white background and a section of frame missing in the top corner. This wasn't previously the case (I know this for certain, since I coded the template originally for the 2008–09 season). It wasn't until a recent Wikipedia site update that the code I'd previously used became deprecated. After I noticed it I decided to adopt the layout currently used by most other NHL team season pages. I hope that clarifies things. Don't hesitate to message me again with further questions.

Thanks, sorry for the delay in responding, not really sure how to converse on here. Yeah, I updated all 35 pages last summer and will continue to do so during the offseason.

Greetings,
I see that you changed Noon to 12:00 p.m. on the 2014 Penn State Nittany Lions football team page. Per WP:TIME, Noon is the proper representation of this time of the day.
Thanks! BenYes? 20:46, 30 September 2014 (UTC)
red links
[edit]WP:REDLINK is quite clear; red links to topics that might conceivably have articles should remain. Articles like 2011 NCAA Division III Women's Ice Hockey Tournament, 2014 CHA Women's Ice Hockey Tournament, Scott McDonald (ice hockey), etc., certainly qualify; others may be less certain but the redlinks do no harm. Powers T 12:11, 11 March 2015 (UTC)
- I will agree with you on the Division III tournament possibly being deserving of an article. Currently women's ice hockey conference tournaments do not have Wikipedia pages. As for players, the only women's ice hockey players normally considered notable enough to have their own articles are those that either are, have, or will be playing for their country's senior national teams. If you think it would be a good idea to have these articles exist, why don't you create them? For the tournaments you can probably copy formats from the National Collegiate tournaments page (especially the 2014 and 2015 tournaments). It might, however, be a good idea to run at least one article of each type (Division III NCAA tournament, conference tournament, and players/coaches) through the article creation system to ensure they are notable enough. Regardless of what happens, I would ask that you manually add back in the links rather than reverting my edit, as I also made some formatting changes and factual corrections (such as removing the part about having no losing seasons as this year will almost certainly be one). Please let me know what you decide. Hydra88 (talk) 12:39, 11 March 2015 (UTC)
- Several yearly CHA tournament articles already exist, such as 2011 CHA Women's Ice Hockey Tournament, as well as articles for almost every recent men's conference tournament; I think there's a clear precedent there. I admit I don't have the patience to systematically create multiple articles in a sequence, complete with appropriate references, but removing red links is pointless; it only makes it harder to properly link an article once it does get created.
- Unfortunately, I must object to your request that I manually undo your destruction of these links. That's a lot of extra work that never should have been needed in the first place. I would, rather, request that you re-do your edits without removing the red links; as the guideline page says, "Do not remove red links unless you are certain that Wikipedia should not have an article on that subject."
- -- Powers T 01:30, 12 March 2015 (UTC)
- I have restored some of the redlinks. I did not restore all of them as I am confident some of them were not notable enough for Wikipedia. My reason is as follows: I closely follow the women's hockey team at Clarkson University, and, even though they won the national championship last year, I would not consider any but a few of them for more than a second as being notable enough to warrant a Wikipedia article. I understand if you disagree, but I am trying to be as reasonable as possible here. I agree that the national tournaments are deserving of pages, as are the coach and one or two players (see my edit summary for why I did not restore the conference tournament links).
- Additionally, not every individual redlink for topics that have been restored has been restored, as linking to the same topic five times a in a single section is probably unnecessary. Hydra88 (talk) 02:09, 12 March 2015 (UTC)
- Thank you for restoring some redlinks.
- I'm afraid I don't understand what Boston College's page has to do with anything. There isn't a lot of consistency among ice hockey articles; compare, for example Miami RedHawks men's ice hockey. I'll concede that conference tournaments aren't usually linked in the infoboxes, though I have no idea why; the national tournaments usually are. And in either case, it's downright weird to link some national tournaments (as you did with 2007) but not others (2011, 2012).
- Out of curiosity, in the event that articles are eventually written for any of these topics you've delinked, how do you expect the links to be re-established?
- On a separate topic, why did you expand the recent-seasons table to 100% pagewidth? That seems far too wide. Powers T 15:39, 12 March 2015 (UTC)
- Firstly, some interfaces (like mobile and tablet) get squashed when the table is how it was. Maybe in should be a bit narrower than 100%, but it needed to be a little bigger in my opinion. I linked to each tournament once in each infobox at the highest level achieved, (thus 2012 is in national championships, 2011 in Frozen Four, and 2007 in appearances). As for re-linking the articles, I do not see them being created, but if they are, someone will have to relink them. I have noticed on occasion in the past something has an article but for which there is no link, and I normally add the link. My guess would still be that if those articles were created, they would be challenged on account of lack of notability. Hydra88 (talk) 16:09, 12 March 2015 (UTC)

[edit]Thanks for the edits to the Clarkson page. They look good. Clarkson is my favorite team as well as my alma mater. — Preceding unsigned comment added by TitleIXHockey (talk • contribs) 02:18, 16 December 2016 (UTC)
Thanks for the message. I've completed Div I team pages for 2014-15, but it's a huge undertaking. If you look at the 12 ECAC teams (St. Lawrence is awaiting approval), you'll see a sort of standardization...I was trying to get the womens' teams up to par with mens', or at least nearly par. The Clarkson standard is better, but I'm not sure that it's replicable for all of Div I; a huge task even for a team of writers/editors. Take a look. If you think that you'd like to take on ECAC for the past 2 seasons, including this year (or more, or less as you like) that would be great. I'd love to collaborate. I'm almost caught up for the CHA conference, and Hockey East is my home conference, but I'm good with whatever. Also, take a look at 2014-15 NCAA Division I women's ice hockey season, as it's a pretty good snapshot, or at least I hope so. Thanks, Bill McKenna (talk) 23:32, 25 January 2017 (UTC)
Per your advice, check out 2014-15 Providence Friars women's ice hockey season. I like the result, and I think it's a good standard to set.It'll take a while to upgrade, but quality matters.Bill McKenna (talk) 03:10, 27 January 2017 (UTC)

Hello WHOCKEY editors! The Women's Football/Soccer Task Force uses periodic newsletters to keep its members looped in on task force happenings and adopting the practice may serve useful for WP:WHOCKEY – let’s give it a try! If you have any feedback or ideas regarding the WP:WHOCKEY newsletter, please post on the news talk page. This newsletter is sourced and minimally altered from the WOSO April 2018 newsletter created by our own Hmlarson. Drawing further inspiration from WP:WOSO, work has begun on a few initiatives that will emphasize making more WHOCKEY links blue (similar to the work that WikiProject Women in Red does) and filling in the gaps within various league, team, and player, etc. articles. The hope is that the initiatives will make it easier for editors to find the pages and topics of most interest to them. Initiative pages are currently in the works and will be fully functional by the second week of the month. If you're interested in collaborating with others to make more links blue, once the initiatives are up and running, you’ll be able to sign up on an initiative page and help grow the lists, add potential references, resources, and create the articles. If there is a subject that you feel ought to have an initiative of it’s own, creating your own initiative is welcomed and encouraged.
WP:GNG takes precedence over WP:NHOCKEY (which only includes players on women's national teams at the highest tier of IIHF competition)? Often times there is enough media coverage to meet WP:GNG or other notability guidelines. Be sure to tag the task force on the talk page of new articles with: {{WikiProject Women's sport|icehockey=yes}}
During the spotlight on diversity, editors are encouraged to celebrate the array of identities represented within the sport by improving or creating bio pages for ice hockey people of various cultures, ethnicities, heritages, religious beliefs, sexual orientations, gender identities, abilities, and other diverse characteristics. Next month kicks off the NOV-DEC-JAN spotlight on Collegiate Leagues!

Happy Spring WHOCKEY editors! After more than a year without international women’s ice hockey, we’re finally just a month away from the 2021 IIHF Women's World Championship! The IIHF Worlds, in partnership with the Olympic Games, are the most watched annual women’s ice hockey tournaments in the world and spark more interest in the women’s game than any other events. We have a great opportunity to enrich the fan experience by offering up-to-date and informative articles about players, national teams, and other subjects related to the tournament. The only women's players included in WP:NHOCKEY are players who have competed in the Top Division of the World Championship – meaning a bevy of player bios will get to be created in the next month. Hungary is set to make its Top Division debut and Denmark is returning to the Top Division for the first time since 1992. What an exciting time to be editing! Articles related to the 2021 Worlds that are in need of creation, updates, or edits are collected at the National Teams & International Tournaments initiative page. Please add to the list if you find something in need of attention so we may collaborate and help one another in the coming weeks.

What a wild ride the 2020–21 season has been! Many leagues were able to complete the season despite the need for alternations and amendments with respect to COVID-19. Hearty congratulations to all of the league champions – 2020–21 is definitely one for the history books.
