Talk:Ray Rice

message: Shouldn't his name be Ray Rice? I've never heard him called Raymell and nearly every page linking to this article links to Ray Rice. --Thomas.macmillan (talk) 18:48, 5 January 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Name

message: Recent edits make it sound like he's retired or out of the league. He was cut from a team and is currently suspended, but his career is not over. He's 27 and an elite running back- he'll most likely sign with another team.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.168.89.20 (talk) 19:51, 8 September 2014 (UTC)

replies: text: That's well known now but it would not be in a convictions section since he has yet to be convicted of the assault (as obvious as it was). The only conviction we can add currently would be the tinted windows fine which is not needed.--76.65.41.36 (talk) 02:16, 10 September 2014 (UTC)

thread_title:  Semi-protected edit request on 9 September 2014, Reference of Personal Profile of Ray Rice 

message: There's been some edit-warring about whether to refer to Rice as a free agent or as indefinitely suspended in the lede and in the infobox. Is there a chance a consensus can be reached here? Are "free agent" and "indefinitely suspended" mutually exclusive - could both be listed? What do reliable sources say? Cheers, Dawn Bard (talk) 18:38, 10 September 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: I think we've achieved some kind of understanding by maintaining the indefinite suspension in the opening paragraph, but showing "free agent" in the infobox, as other sports players in similar circumstances have historically been listed as free agents.  Personally, I think this whole issue is between Mr. and Mrs. Rice, however there was a video of their domestic altercation which is quite impactful.  Had there been a video of one of Michael Vick's dogs getting mauled, he probably would've been in worse trouble than he was.  Anyway, my point is that "free agent" in the opening paragraph does not at all accurately reflect Ray Rice's current status or future as an NFL player.  Terry Foote (talk) 18:52, 10 September 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: This makes sense to me; with the suspension mentioned in the very first sentence, there's no appearance of whitewashing in my opinion, and from what I've read so far, "free agent" is accurate, however unlikely it is that he'll play again. Who knows, maybe he'll end up in Canada. Unlikely, but Ochocinco is a Montréal Alouette at the moment, so it's perhaps not entirely impossible. My point is just that he'd be considered a free agent by the CFL. (It goes without saying that more discussion, dissenting opinions, etc., are still welcome.) Cheers, Dawn Bard (talk) 19:04, 10 September 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: The title "free agent" misinforms readers. He is currently "indefinitely suspended" from the NFL. Let's use that title rather than "free agent" unless he decides to play elsewhere. What do reliable sources claim him to be? If sources call him a "free agent" then I would support using that title; otherwise let's go with "indefinitely suspended".

thread_title:  Free agent vs indef suspended 

message: One paragraph starts off saying that both the man and his fiancee were arrested.  But there is no more mention of the woman's being arrested.  Why is that?  Were charges against her dropped?  Is the statement that she was arrested incorrect?  Is  what later transpired in terms of her arrest considered by Wikipedia as unimportant?211.225.33.104 (talk) 01:01, 17 September 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: I think police can arrest you without pressing charges. Like if 2 guys are fighting they arrest both until they sort out who started kt and press charges against him and let the other go. Not to say they got things right here. 13:18, 23 September 2015 (UTC)

thread_title:  Semi-protected edit request on 12 August 2015 

message: So since there has been long term edit warring (over time) regarding the NFL year that should appear in the infobox, I ask that we come to an agreement. 2013 was the last season he played active, as he didn't play at all during the 2014 season, unless you count the preseason. So what I'm asking is when do we consider the NFL season to "start"? (legally, it starts the day of free agency, but that wouldn't work here). Do we just consider who's on the roster week 1 of the regular season, or any time of the preseason? ~ Dissident93 (talk) 02:41, 10 September 2015 (UTC)

message: Has Ray ever been concussed? This massage guy brought it up claiming concussion trauma could lead to lack of force control (ie self defense parry becoming knockout punch) but I don't know if any actual MDs ever diagnosed Ray with anything like that. 64.228.91.102 (talk) 13:16, 23 September 2015 (UTC)
thread_title: Concussion

message: So user  continues to remove the year in the infobox image caption, simply because he doesn't like it. It has always been consensus to add the year (when known) to avoid any disambiguity. He has been warned by other editors, including myself, but refuses to comment on it. (Besides his badly written attempts on his talk page)
Does anybody object to having the year mentioned or not? Other NFL player articles have always had it written that way, which is why I keep reverting the edits, when normally I wouldn't be bothered over something so trivial. The rest of the article has pictures of Rice with the year included, but he doesn't seem to remove them for some reason. ~ Dissident93 (talk) 05:53, 14 November 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: In this case, I like having the year in the caption, because I think it's worth noting that the pic is six years old even though he was an active player just a couple of seasons ago. EricEnfermero (Talk) 06:12, 14 November 2015 (UTC)
