List of NCAA Philippines basketball champions

[edit]

Self nom. I figure it is stable and well-referenced. The images are tagged nicely. Used inline citations. Looks good to me. Circa 1900 06:26, 16 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • Oppose. The images are not tagged nicely. {{coatofarms}} is a very crapy template which basically says "we have no idea what license to use. But since we have to do something, we will use fair use." In other words, this template is a fair use template. And you cannot use fair use images for decorations. And even if you could you would need fair use rationalles. Smaller things: table widths are inconsistent, please spell out all the schools everywhere, I would like to see reasons for suspension for differen seasons (eg 61-65 of Juniors), how come nobody hosted the NCAA tournament in 83-84 (and some other years), a short summary section (which school won how many times) would be nice. I do give you credit for nicely citing references. Renata 14:30, 16 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
    • I have now removed the images, since I can't think of a tag suitable enough. Also, I've standardized the table widths. By the way, the summary can be found at NCAA Philippines Basketball Championship article. Only the 1936 season doesn't have an explanation why it is suspended, while only two years did not have hosts. Those 2 things may do a little researching for I can't find the reasons on the net.

Question: Is the {{Univ-logo}} tag appropriate enough? Circa 1900 11:31, 17 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, it is better to retag those logos with univ-logo. However, again, this is a fair use template and you cannot use fair use images for decoration (as in this list). If you are going to retag the images, could you please also write the rationale.
IMHO, the summary section would do better in the list than in the article. I would replace the table with prose outlining the main points and directing to the list for details. This way your list gets more stuff to list and the article gets rid of ugly-looking list :) I would also expand that table to include how many times a team palyed in the championship. Also, if you could make a summary of what schools won the title several years in a row, it would be really nice. And being a complete nitpick, the lead is a bit too short.
But the list looks much better now. A couple more edits/improvements and I will support it. Renata 14:21, 17 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Looks like the images would have to be removed altogether. About the summary section, some of the earlier seasons have lost their records already (especially those before WWII), so finding information about those, and hence, about the number of times the team played for the championship maybe impossible. However, your other suggestions, such as the summary, the schools that won several years in a row and the lead has been addressed to. Circa 1900 16:37, 17 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
What I meant by "how many times a team palyed in the championship" was how many seasons the team was member of the championship and not how many matches it played in total. Sorry for confussion, and very nice changes, hence...
