Talk:Paul Brown

message: Would someone tell the schmuck who continually refers to Ohio State as THE Ohio State University that he is incorrect.  The only people who use this term are the arrogant fans and alumni of OSU--thus that makes it a violation of NPOV.
I don't know about that.  All of the colleges copyright notices include the word "the" before Ohio State.  The Ohio State University's logo actually includes the word "The" as well.  The Ohio State University — Official website Giddeanx (talk) 18:31, 24 July 2008 (UTC)

message: I do not understand why Paul Brown is included in this category.  The Southern Manifesto was a document denouncing 'Brown vs Board of Education', signed by some Southern Congressmen and Senators.  The only things I am aware of connecting Paul Brown to this subject are his name (coincidence) and that he helped end the color line in pro football.  Is there something that directly connects him to the battle to desegregate schools?Clubiguana 05:00, 22 April 2007 (UTC)

message: Two of the paragraphs in here conflict each other on the naming of the Browns. The second to last in the Ohio State part, and the first one in the Cleveland Browns Part.

replies: text: The former paragraph also appears in Cleveland Browns. I've added a tag to call attention to the contradiction. White 720 (talk) 03:16, 21 January 2009 (UTC)

message: The part of the infobox that lists his former teams says he was a player, not a coach. Somebody should probably fix that. 67.161.188.134 (talk) 23:44, 17 June 2010 (UTC)

message: 1) you left out http://nypl.bibliocommons.com/item/show/10675453052_pb,_the_paul_brown_story not a good job there; that's a published work - this alone should not make it a good article
* This is an autobiography, and as such is a WP:PRIMARY source. Wikipedia policy generally prefers secondary sources over primary ones except for with straightforward statements of fact and such. It wasn't necessary to use this source here, since there are plenty of secondary sources that cover all the relevant material. --Batard0 (talk) 06:17, 7 September 2012 (UTC)

message: Massively complicated stuff there. I do not think it is treated that well in this article. I certainly do not believe it is GA stuff, that being said, it's a very, very, very complicated issue. 66.234.33.13 (talk) 02:32, 7 September 2012 (UTC)

message: A failure in this article to account for how Paul Brown dealt with Jim Brown's perspective on race relations during his career will prohibit this article from ever being considered FA. I am sorry. 66.234.33.13 (talk) 02:44, 7 September 2012 (UTC)
