His number may have been #7 before, I don't see Cleveland Browns roster page saying he is #7 with his new team. Tarl N. (discuss) 03:26, 16 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Correction, 49ers. He is explicitly listed in the 49ers roster (sorry for the confusion with Cleveland) with no number: http://www.49ers.com/team/roster.html . Tarl N. (discuss) 23:00, 16 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

It appears that someone, with this edit, made up a bunch of numbers for 49ers players. The team does not agree. I backed that change out. This isn't uncommon, every year we get jokers who like to assign numbers to players, I have to wonder if it's part of some fantasy football ritual, where they gain some advantage by having the numbers they picked in Wikipedia. In any case, do not simply take information from one place in Wikipedia and place it somewhere else. If it's missing somewhere, check the original sources to make sure it's good before replicating it. Tarl N. (discuss) 23:22, 16 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Undoing vandalism

When you see that a page has been vandalized, such as Adam Thielen was, click the "View history" tab to check recent edits to the page. When you find the edit that messed it up, you can click "undo" to revert that edit to the previous version of the page. It's a lot better and simpler than trying to fix it manually.
