Recent edits

First off, welcome to Wikipedia. I appreciate your contributions, but you've gone about them pretty hap-hazardly. In the edits to Sidney Crosby and Evgeni Malkin, you added the statistics of the current season despite numerous disclaimers advising you not to do so. This is because editing stats leads to a lot of trouble- by the time a user reads them, they are usually out of date and incorrect. Wikipedia isn't an up-to-date sports database- save the updated stats until the end of the season and/or playoffs.

Second, your addition/removal of material from the Sidney Crosby article was not appropriate. His nickname "Sir Sidney" is fairly well known (particularly because of its use by Mike Lange), and "Darryl" was sourced later in the article. While I understand it's useful to document a player's career as thoroughly as possible, detailing the workout and its results between seasons is a bit too much- imagine if Wayne Gretzky's article went into that much detail! As an encyclopedia, Wikipedia's purpose is to provide an overview of a topic that deals largely with the major aspects. Anyway, if you have any questions, feel free to ask me on my talk page. Just add your comment to the bottom of the page, and sign it with four tildes (~~~~). --Wafulz 05:25, 25 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

now properly sourced. Thank you for your edits. If you look through the edit history, you'll see that there was enough vandalism to cause a temporary block on editing yesterday, so I'm a bit cautious with this article. -Superbeecat 20:25, 3 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Copyrighted material

Please do not add copyrighted material into articles, such as TSN's scouting reports. Also, don't add the round that a player was drafted- the overall pick is all that is needed.-Wafulz 18:05, 4 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

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.
