message: The red/sand colors that exist on the template are way too intense and at a quick glance do not remotely match the colors used on the team's website. I'm trying to correct these colors by adding those provided by SSUR.org (http://www.ssur.org/research/TeamColors/Baseball/MajorLeagueBaseball/MajorLeagueBaseball.htm), as they are dedicated to researching uniforms in team colors in all sports throughout history. I would think they are the most reliable source to derive colors from, as the MLB team sites don't seem to use a consistent solid color, but rather different shades and various gradients. Surely you can see the old red is more like maroon and the old sand is like a bright gold, when in reality, the colors are faded brick red and sand. Y2kcrazyjoker4 (talk) 19:59, 31 July 2009 (UTC)

Talk:Orgetorix

message: Well this is a pleasant fantasy spun by a juvenile. I'm sorry, son, I like to encourage the writing efforts of children. You should definitely feel a part of our community. Thank you for putting this up. However, although many youths contribute to WP at an adult level - who is to say precisely where maturity begins and ends? IQ tests are something of a fraud - this is more of a children's story. I'm going to start bringing the level up now. Unfortunately about all we know of Orgetorix is what Caesar says. He is important for having single-handedly started the Gallic War. Maybe there is some archaeology out there, or some etymology. Cassius Dio and Orosius got their information like everyone else from Caesar. So, I don't know if enough can be said to justify a separate article. Maybe it should be under Helvetii.

Talk:Jersey City Skeeters

message: There were multiple Jersey City clubs in the NABBP "by 1870". Which one? By 1885 when Jersey City joined the Eastern League, such affiliation implied exclusive territory. If that club was identical to or descended from a particular NABBP member in Jersey City, then the particular 1870 club should be identified and the descent asserted, at least.
No Jersey City club fielded a strong team, much less amateur champion in 1869 or 1870, the two seasons with official amateur/professional distinction. So I have cut the claim to win one NABBP amateur championship "by 1870", the association's last season. Amateur champion so early as 1872 is possible but the successor amateur association (NAABBP, established 1871) is unknown today, after its first year. Does anyone here know about it, or about a Jersey City club success?
Marshall Wright lists one Jersey City club for 1870 under the name "Champion" as in Champion Base Ball Club (for example). Maybe it won a local or regional title. Maybe author misinterpreted the name.
