[edit]Hello, I'm Bagumba. Your recent edit to the page Boris Diaw appears to have added premature information about a reported sports transaction, so it has been removed for now. The transaction is based on anonymous sources and/or awaiting an official announcement. If you believe the transaction has been completed, please cite a reliable source or discuss your change on the article's talk page. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Also, the source you cited stated that it was a "pending trade" that hasn't been completed. —Bagumba (talk) 00:35, 7 July 2016 (UTC)
@Bagumba: Hi there Bagumba. Thanks for the correction; I was unaware of the standard (as I'm only a very occasional contributor) and won't do anything like that again. The NBA's July moratorium is a bit of a weird thing, where many transactions are basically considered completed, with players tweeting about their new teams and websites updating rosters -- but, yes, none of these contracts can actually be signed until July 7. I have no problem waiting until the ink's actually dry, and indeed I'm sure someone will beat me to it when the time comes. :) Volucris (talk) 05:25, 7 July 2016 (UTC)
