Thanks! Honestly, that particular red link stuck out at me because I'm a Dodgers fan and I remembered that Kennedy was in Koufax's perfect game (Vin Scully named all the fielders in his PBP of the ninth inning, which I've listened to approximately a hundred times). Until I saw it on the WikiProject page, I had no clue he'd even played for the Red Sox. You learn something new every day. Camanda (talk) 02:35, 21 January 2008 (UTC)

Yeah, sorry. I make a ton of edits (many of them minor), so I just blew through it and accidentally checked it off (I type with keyboard shortcuts). I meant to post my reason on the talk page, but it didn't go through the first time I submitted it. It should be up now. Thanks President David Palmer (talk) 14:18, 13 March 2008 (UTC)
Yesterday, Paul Pierce which was nominated by Basketball110 was selected as April's Collaboration. The nomination is avaliable here. If you were not able to vote, we look forward to you voting in May's collaboration which will be avaliable in late April. However, as of now Boston Celtics remains March's Collaboration. Please see the to-do list for the article on it's talk page. Thanks, Newsletterbot (talk) 01:29, 14 March 2008 (UTC)The above message was an automatically delievered message from Newsletterbot.

Thanks for deleting the articles that were at the WP:SOX for over 10 days. I think they were there for 2-3 weeks. Anyway, continue your work.--RyRy5(talk)01:27, 19 March 2008 (UTC)

Project News
There are currently no unassessed articles in the Wikiproject. This was done because of a great help and effort by Basketball110, and Stormtracker94. The main project page received a redesign that was blatantly was stolen from the Green Bay Packers Wikiproject. It is encouraged that all members keep both the main project page and the main project talk page on their watchlist to see any new information that may be posted there. The project currently has a total of twenty-two (22) members. It is suggested that you invite anyone who may be interesting in contributing in this project. When inviting someone please use {{WP CELTICS INVITE}}. If they do accept the invite, please welcome them with {{WPCELTICSwelcome}}. Our main goal for the project to bring Boston Celtics up to featured article status still stands. The article was chosen as March's collaboration and a good amount of effort was done improving the article by 8-Hype, Stormtracker94, and RC-0722. Your help is appreciated.
The project currently has one featured article: Bill Russell, and four (4) good articles: Bob Cousy, Bruce Bowen, Dennis Johnson, and Red Auerbach.
The project collaboration for the Wikiproject for March was Boston Celtics. April’s collaboration is Paul Pierce. The article could use some cleanup and significant improvements. The article was nominated by Basketabll110 and the nomination is avaliable here. It is recommended that you put Paul Pierce on your watchlist to track all changes that occur in the article. You will be notified with May's nominations are taking place.
The article has a tag for original research and one for a missing citation, that I can see. Try Googling around and see what you can find for citations for those statements. It's also tagged for cleanup. Try out Advisor to help you clean up articles. It will give you a list of issues it finds in the article and it will autofix those issues if you want it to.

Thanks for the advice here and on my talkpage. I also see your a really good contributer to baseball articles. Keep it up.--RyRy5 (talk) 17:12, 19 April 2008 (UTC)
I don't see what that has to do with your vandalism-reverting -- doing one doesn't mean that you can't do the other. I can understand you're busy with other things at the moment, but my point was that if you plan to stay involved in vandal fighting (and my guess is that you do, judging by various userboxes on your userpage), you should use Twinkle. It will offer you an alternative to rollback, auto-open user talk pages after reverting their edits, and recall the name of the page for you and give you a list of useful templates. It makes my life easier and it will do the same for you. I guarantee that. It's better than having to go back and sign talk pages, or leaving unsigned warnings everywhere when you claim in a userbox that you sign all of your posts. Camanda (talk) 03:45, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
I'll clarify. "I may consider using it. By the way, I'm busy closing articles at the WP:AFD. I just closed one here. Cheers." Thanks for the advice.--RyRy5 (talk) 03:49, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
Um. It says "Twinkle does NOT work with Internet Explorer and support for IE is not planned at the moment." I use IE. I guess I won't be using twinkle. But I will keep in mind your advice.RyRy5 (talk) 03:55, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
Thank you for your interest in VandalProof, Camanda. As you may know, VP is a very powerful
