replies: text: Walton is not officially the Lakers' head coach until the Warriors' current season ends. The reason why this article is semi-protected in the first place is because many other editors were prematurely changing his team to Lakers in the infobox. --A guy saved by Jesus (talk) 23:07, 30 April 2016 (UTC)

message: When dealing with reported signings, why not say "It was reported that Luke Walton agreed to a coaching position with the Sacramento Kings. The signing has not been officially confirmed or announced." or something along those lines?
Concerns about Wikipedia incorrectly labelling something that later turns out to be a false rumor obviously have merit, and his wikibox shouldn't be purple until an official press conference, but reporting substantiated rumors as unconfirmed seems preferable to disallowing any mention of the report entirely.
Much like the LeBron James article, in my opinion ignoring highly-reported news in the fear of being wrong is an example of Wikipedia 's bureaucracy preventing it from being an accurate source of information. 2600:1:9937:91C6:6493:2BFD:1BE5:E131 (talk) 03:58, 15 April 2019 (UTC)
