USHL and AHL MapsI've created a map for the USHL so far. Let me know what you think. It's just a start, it could go in a completely different direction if you like. 100%; 50%. (The original is SVG and can be altered easily, these are just to show what it looks like so far.) vıdıoman (talk • contribs) 21:38, 4 December 2007 (UTC)
Here you go: Image:AHL Team Locations.png, Image:USHL Team Locations.png. I had a problem with the text display as an SVG so I had to convert them to PNGs but that shouldn't be a problem. Let me know about any changes that need to be made in the future. :) vıdıoman (talk • contribs) 14:31, 6 December 2007 (UTC)

SM-Liiga has a map, Image:SM liiga map.png. Elitserian has a template map, where the red location dots link to the respective teams page. vıdıoman (talk • contribs) 12:48, 7 December 2007 (UTC)
I didn't make the Finland map, it already existed. Here is the Australian map. If you look at the code for the Elitserien map it shows that it is using a blank image with the dots superimposed over it. You cannot view a larger version with the dots. vıdıoman (talk • contribs) 13:38, 7 December 2007 (UTC)

IIHFI've gone through and added the template to all the pages that exist for member nations (full members, that is). The hard part is going to be creating pages for all the members that don't have pages. We have to upload the logo, create the page, make sure the colors match, etc. That's definitely not going to be pretty, but it has to be done.

Kangwon Land didn't make the playoffs in their first year finishing 7th of 9 [3] (I realize the title says 04/05 but that is a typo on the AL's part, you can see the 05/06 year on the chart itself) and in the second season they defeated Anyang in the quarter finals, they didn't lose to them. They ended up losing to the Paper Cranes in the semifinals[4].--Crossmr (talk) 02:04, 5 December 2009 (UTC) GA reassessment of Traditions and anecdotes associated with the Stanley CupI have conducted a reassessment of the above article as part of the GA Sweeps process.

Kaiser matias (talk) 02:05, 24 January 2018 (UTC) Patt Quinn helpHI Jason! I am brand new to Wikipedia. And have no idea about all this coding, but I know a great deal about hockey and want so much to help with your Patt Quinn page. A lot of it I know personally but can verify from public sources. For example, he went to law school only one year at that private school back east. He finished up in San Diego and passed the California bar in 1968? He used his newly acquired legal knowledge to try to double deal on my team, the Kings with whom he had a contract, and use that contract to try to get a better deal w another team. That's how he got banned from the NHL. So his law school and bar admission dates are important. Oh there is so much more.. He was not a nice man. Almost all of the links are bad in the article, for a guy who was fired from every job he ever had and was banned completely from the NHL, you sure can't tell he was anything but an angel.

I am a librarian in Edmonton Alberta, and I'm working with an older fellow named Donald Gary McCallum born Sep 6 1939, aka "Big Cal" aka Don "Dunk" McCallum. Donald is hockey player whose got his own incredible story to tell (we are working on a short film, and book). The problem is in 1965 Ed Chenoweth gave him the nickname Don "Dunk" McCallum after the more famous "Dunc McCallum", and this is how he's known in the hockey community (he knows Don Cherry!). This is a problem, because whenever he tries to tell his story, Dunc McCallum 1940-1983 is the first google result and people (including journalists) assume he is lying, or crazy, or a ghost! He does not claim to be Dunc McCallum 1940-1983. However this article is making it impossible to tell his story. Rather than attempt to edit the article, or create an entirely new wikipedia article, and probably get it wrong -- I thought i'd ask you you to help by making a small edit. Something like "Not to be confused with Don 'Dunk' McCallum aka "Big Cal" AAA + WIHL + NOHA Hockey Player', or whatever you think woud be most appropriate. We have alot of evidence and material of Don McCallum's Hockey Career, and can provide such as necessary. We can also exchange contact information, but i'm not sure this is place? In the mean time you can get a rough idea of his career by checking the "About" section on his google plus page https://plus.google.com/114576262685036278812 — Preceding unsigned comment added by 198.161.203.11 (talk) 02:07, 6 March 2018 (UTC) Hello, Don and librarian, thanks for the questions.

Wrong image for Lloyd PollockThe following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.
Hi - my name is Colin Stein. I am Lloyd Pollock's youngest grandson. The image for Lloyd Pollock posted on http://wecshof.org/inductees/lloyd-pollock, reproduced on your Wikipedia entry for him, is wrong. Can you please remove it, and replace it with this (http://wecshof.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/Lloyd-Pollock-Windsor2.jpg)? I have emailed the Windsor Essex County Sports Hall of Fame to ask them to remove the photo from their website as well, and replace with a correct image. In addition to seeing the clear differences in facial structure and features between the hockey player and the correct image of Lloyd, you can also compare his date of birth (1909) with the apparent year of the photo for this Windsor Spitfire player (would have to be 1940s or 1950s) - this player is a junior hockey player younger than age 25, whereas Lloyd would have been in his 30s or 40s. Lastly, Lloyd never played amateur or professional hockey. Thanks in advance for making the requested change. Colinmstein (talk) 03:26, 3 May 2020 (UTC) The discussion above is closed.

1954 LyndhurstsJust wanted to stop by and say great work on this article so far - I've always lamented the fact that our article on that team is so short. I have actually done a lot of research on the players of the team in the past years, for the SIHR (I even spoke to John Scott about the team & tournament years ago) and it's quite the story, as many of those early Canadian national teams are (the 1949 Sudbury Wolves who won 47-0 against Denmark at the 1949 Ice Hockey World Championships is another great one).

The sentence is "On the eve of the Olympics, Gilroy chose to allow the two players to participate as a gesture of sportsmanship towards Great Britain, and objected to Canada being portrayed as in protest."

I am planning on having a WikiConference North America sports panel December 12 3:00 EST. This is something that has never been done before and there are many sports which are "native" to North America and part of the America identity. What it seems to be is that we (you, me, and other members of WikiSports) will be in a Zoom (or other video conferencing app) to discuss our experiences in editing sports on Wikipedia. These can range from combating vandalism to how to best get permission to use sports photos. The organizers of WikiConference North America (WCNA) created an Etherpad surrounding planning which I will link here. if you Command F "sports" you will find the section.

Art Potter's birthHi @Flibirigit:, I came across your new page of Art Potter and realised you are missing his UK birth details.

Your addition there is interesting, but does not make much sense. When Canada lost to Czechoslovakia they had two remaining games, and only had one loss, so could have still won gold.

as E. A's grandson, I wanted to thank you for the very impressive and incredibly thorough Wikipedia pageI too have been doing research on my grandfather's hockey career, although with more emphasis on his coaching/management of Portage's franchise in the MPL from 1905-06, 1906-07 and 1907-08. I am familiar with the majority of the content mentioned in your write - up, including the wrangling with the entire Maritime region, the protest at the 1936 Olympics, his business and political ventures, etc. but certainly not all the detail that was contained in your article. I did discover a picture of the Smiths Falls 1901-02 Senior team for whom he played, the only evidence I have of his own PLAYING career. Smiths Falls was part of the epicentre of the game of hockey at the turn of the last century, being part of the Ottawa Valley. Note that most of the players on those old Portage's teams came from that area - Brockville, Renfrew, Ottawa plus Art Serviss and Skinner Poulon who were Smiths Falls natives. I also heard numerous anecdotes from my father ( Rex) while growing up in Portage as a kid (e. g., appointing Clarence Campbell as head referee for an Allan Cup final, and bringing him in for a briefing (via train) in our living room at 144 Garland St., P la P.

The thread is Dweisz94 continued disruption and not respecting AfD consensus. Thank you. The user above has now been reported due to their continued disruptive behaviour. I just thought I'd notify you of the discussion, as you were once involved in this in the past, with them directing a personal attack at you here. AP 499D25 (talk) 01:48, 15 March 2023 (UTC)
George NagobadsA couple weeks ago, you reverted an edit that I made to George Nagobads where I added a internal link to Latvia. Your rationale was: "revert as per MOS:GEOLINK, country names do not need links". I read GEOLINK and it says (underlining for emphasis): However, I scrolled further down to find MOS:OL, which is the more relevant subsection. To amalgamate the guidance given there as it pertains to countries: In any case, the Manuel of Style is pretty vaguely written on this subject, so I wanted to look into where the community stands on this issue. That sent me down a whole different rabbit hole where I eventually found this RfC on the MOS:LINK talk page from 2021. The consensus there was... ah, who are we kidding? There was no consensus on that page. I didn't realize that linking countries was such a contentious issue. I know for a fact that I've done it before, and while it isn't generally encouraged, it's not really outside of policy, either. My thinking was that adding links to countries was convenient for the reader (as it has often been for me), but if the Wikipedia community generally frowns upon the practice, I won't stand in their way.

PFHLai (talk) 15:38, 2 April 2023 (UTC) ApologiesHey, I'm sorry for calling you a troll. I got worked up over this. Your reasoning just frustrated me a bit. I'm staying off that section now. Conyo14 (talk) 02:54, 5 May 2023 (UTC) June 2023Most of the users you interact with are well familiar with an edit summary (I've been editing for 17 years)...we simply find certain edits so miniscule and uncontroversial that we often omit them. You trolling certain users' talk pages can be considered disruptive editing, per such policies as WP:HOUNDING and WP:HUSH. Furthermore, they can be perceived as hypocritical, as most of YOUR edits don't include an edit summary either. So try not to throw stones from a glass house, please, and leave us editors alone about our edit summaries or lack thereof. Thank you.

See MOS:DATETIES. "For any given article, the choice of date format and the choice of national variety of English". The key is national variety of English. Finland does not have a national variety of English so DATETIES does not apply. DATETIES is effective for countries such as US, UK, and India. I don't read or write Finnish, but I don't think a Finnish person would write today's date as "29 October 2023" since "October" is probably not a Finnish word.

IP edit-warringConcerning the IP (104.157.207.107)? I believe you have a case for edit warring. They'll not stop until they're blocked. GoodDay (talk) 17:50, 30 December 2023 (UTC)
Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Liverpool PrivateersHello. This AfD has been under attack by a few LTA vandals. The version I have AGF'd your edit is the correct one. I requested ECP for the page, which has been done. Have a good day. ~~~~ Aloha27 talk 20:30, 26 May 2024 (UTC) List of IIHF World Championship medalistsHello there, I'm writing here because it seems we're in a disagreement regarding the statement about Russia's non-participation in the IIHF WCs, and also I don't want to start edit wars so I decided to reach out to You here. With all respect as a fellow user, I really don't see how the statement that Russia is currently banned from IIHF events for political reasons (or any reasons at all) is related to the medal content. The table is about how many medals each country has won, the note clarifies that Russia is a successor state to the USSR. I really don't see how is the fact that Russia is currently banned from participation relevant to this information. Cheers 〜〜〜〜 Shallov (talk) 17:33, 28 May 2024 (UTC)
Sourcing of easily verifiable, uncontroversial claims: Wayne GretzkyNext time, I suggest you either tag such a claim with a citation needed template or add a source yourself.

There's absolutely no way a reasonable person would look at it and say "That has nothing to do with Don Cherry." Literally all of the sourcing is devoted to Cherry.

Stephen 01:38, 17 August 2024 (UTC) Otters tagNo, it's not a personal attack. If you can't quantify your statement with facts, then it's mere opinion and the tag needs to be removed. You have no factual argument, and not one time did you explain yourself. This paragraph from the Penguins article is also written in "colloquial" sports talk: "In 1980, the 13th-seeded Penguins took the Bruins to the limit in their first-round playoff series. The following season, as the 15th seed, they lost the decisive game of their first-round series in overtime to the heavily favored St. Louis Blues. Then, in the 1982 playoffs, the Penguins held a 3–1 lead late in the fifth and final game of their playoff series against the reigning champions, the New York Islanders." Paleorthodox (talk) 12:02, 22 October 2024 (UTC) Brampton SteelheadsHey Flibirigit. You archived what I wrote about the Brampton Steelheads new mascot. You said no valid source was cited which is true but that's simply because I cannot find an online source at the moment. I am currently working for the Steelheads and saw the mascot change occur, hence me adding it, do I have to wait until it's officially reported on and can be linked to a source before updating the wiki?
