Talk:Atlantic 10 Conference

message: Is it correct to call these schools "basketball only members"?  Aren't they members for everything except football? john 08:17, 16 Mar 2004 (UTC)

message: ===A-10 logo===
Someone needs to upload the general A-10 logo, and place it in the article as a supplement (NOT a replacement). The logo currently in the article is for the football conference only, and looks nothing like the general conference logo. Dale Arnett 04:21, 27 Jan 2005 (UTC)

message: Why are the football stadiums still listed for all the schools, even though the conference doesn't even sponsor football anymore? All the teams that made the switch are listed with their respective stadia at Colonial Athletic Association. Oughgh 23:19, 16 July 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I've thought about this myself. On related notes, the I-AA football conferences template should be removed and the map of conference members should be updated to reflect this change. On the other hand, I think I have seen other "I-AAA" conference pages with football stadia listed where appropriate, even though the conference doesn't sponsor football. If no one else responds to this, I'll start making the changes. Boneillhawk 01:07, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

message: it seems that the conference's website uses Atlantic 10 not Ten. Perhaps the page should be moved to Atlantic 10 Conference. Smith03 17:42, 12 September 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Ten or 10

message: The page has a section for "Atlantic 10 Rivalries".  I have some problems with this section.
# We need other A-10 fans to chime in on this, but the rivalries seem to be to be primarily focused on men's basketball.  This is definitely true for the rivalries mentioning UMass.  UMass was and is a rival with URI, and was a rival with Temple.  So if these are men's basketball rivalries, maybe this whole section should be part of Men's Basketball, and not a section on its own.
# Present vs Past tense.  There is little tense used in this section.  It needs to be improved for clarity.
# I question the need for this section entirely.  Perhaps these "rivalries" should be mentioned on the individual school pages.  Generally, any member of your conference is somewhat of a rival anyway, as you regularly face them.
Anyone else care to comment?--MikeUMA (talk) 04:02, 11 March 2010 (UTC)
thread_title: Rivalries

message: I noticed that conferences in List of NCAA conferences have articles, usually including a membership timeline. While some of the decisions made for each conference make some sense, there is a wide variety of styles for the various timelines, particularly involving color choices, but also other matters of style that could be more consistent.
for example, a school with a yellow bar means:
* An associate member in one sport (if part of the BE)
* A former member of the conference (in the SEC)
* A future member of the conference (in the SEC and Big West)
* A football only member (in the Sun Belt)
* A team that has moved to another conference (in the WAC, NEC)
* A full member of the Big Sky
Some graphs have captions, some do not, and none are centered.
To see the variety of styles, review Current conference timelines
I think it would be worth discussing how best to provide some measure of consistency, recognizing that there may be legitimate reasons for some differences from a standard presentation (for example, some conferences show the name of the new conference for former members. In some cases, this makes sense, in other, it may not.)
I've produced a draft of how the timelines would look with some consistency added.
Please see Draft proposal of conference timelines.
I propose a discussion to see if there is consensus on improving the consistency.
Because it would not be practical to have this discussion on each and every conference talk page, I suggest centralizing this discussion at the Talk page of Project College football SPhilbrick(Talk) 12:49, 12 March 2012 (UTC)
