Cleveland Indians player articles

Hi ... I've recently caught the WP bug and decided to combine it with one of my other passions: The Tribe. I see that you've done some recent edits to Indians' player pages also. Since I don't want to step on your toes or duplicate efforts, I thought I'd drop you a quick note to introduce myself. Initially, I'd planned to just add infoboxes to players who don't have them and do some fact-checking. But I've gotten a little more ambitious and begun to make some more substantial edits to the articles. As a relative newbie, I'd appreciate any feedback you might have about what I've been doing. Here's my contributions page. Ciao. Sanfranman59 00:55, 5 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the note. Here's hoping that our Tribe is as much a pleasant surprise this year as they were a disappointment last. Just out of curiosity, why the interest in Boof Bonser (aside from the fact that he's got the funniest name in baseball)? Sanfranman59 00:08, 6 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the rating on the Jeremy Sowers article. What improvements do you think it would need to get the B rating? --Sanfranman59 05:47, 14 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

RE: 2007 Cleveland Indians game log

Actually, the first series was handled by 69.201.134.220. Everything else, the postponed series and last night's game I've taken care of. Anyway, it was no problem. --Ksy92003 22:02, 11 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

News from the diamond

The 79^th MLB All-star Game is scheduled for this evening.
The 2008 Home Run Derby took place yesterday. Justin Morneau defeated Josh Hamilton in the final round, 5 home runs to 3, although Hamilton broke a record with 28 home runs hit in the first round.

From the Editors

Baseball has a history unlike any other sport. It has been played in countless countries throughout the decades, and it will undoubtedly continue play for many more. On this eve, some the finest players the sport has to offer will take the field at the Yankee Stadium. Four popes spoke there, Pelé scored goals there, "The Greatest [football] Game Ever Played" was battled out there, John Philip Sousa lead a band there, George Costanza worked there; but what do all these events have in common? They fail to reach the level of greatness that the baseball that was played there did.

In 1923, a man named Babe Ruth decided to build a new house, and over the years, that house was a home to some of the greatest baseball ever played. If I were to list out all of these great moments, it would be longer than the bill for the New Yankee Stadium. So I'll sum it up by saying that we can remember these great moments by adding them to this place we've gathered at for future generations to read about, to learn about, to dream about; but more importantly we can watch tonight and we can remember how baseball is unlike anything else that we will encounter in our lives. — Black ngold29

Jim Jordan (Ohio politician)

Please do not restore material before ensuring that it is not a copyright violation. In this case the content added to the article says:

Jordan has been subject to speculation about a possible 2012 U.S. Senate race aimed at unseating Democratic U.S. Sen. Sherrod Brown, who will seek a second term.

and the source says:

Jordan, who was re-elected on Tuesday, has been the subject of speculation about a possible 2012 U.S. Senate race aimed at unseating U.S. Sen. Sherrod Brown, D-Ohio, who is expected to seek a second term.

Accordingly, I have re-removed the content. The facts can be used, but must be rewritten from scratch in order to avoid creating a close paraphrase copyright violation. VernoWhitney (talk) 01:20, 13 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
