thread_title: Stubbing [[USA Rugby]]

message: I deleted the section as it seemed a bit pointless to list only three teams, two of which are virtually unknown outside of the Northeast region of the United States.  It also seemed silly to attempt to list all the teams, as there's thousands. hoopydinkConas tá tú? 19:24, 27 May 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Deletion of Member Teams section

thread_title: Out of date

message: There have been several edits and reverts recently re hatnotes. I'm not sure that the USA Rugby article needs any hatnote, but if we do add a hatnote, we should add a hatnote for the article that mistaken readers are most likely to be looking for when the land here. Readers may come to the USA Rugby article because they are looking for information about Rugby union in the United States or the United States national rugby union team. I'll think further about whether a hatnote is useful, and if so, which hatnote would have the highest chance of being helpful and the lowest chance of being confusing or directing readers to something they weren't looking for.

replies: text: People are more likely to end up here by mistake if looking for USA Rugby League (the whole point of a hatnote). Links to other Rugby union articles are better suited to the "see also" section of the article as hatnotes are not meant to be used for see also stuff. (Oh and yes, this is Special:Contributions/90.214.98.93 btw, Sky Broadband tend to reassign IPs when modem/router resets, nowt I can do about it unfortunately before you accuse me of socking again...). It's all got silly between us hasn't it CUA. Maybe we should have had a convo here before allowing all this to excalate into ANI report and false socking allegations. If you want a civilised adult convo here, I'm more than happy to do so and drama over this is needless really. 90.214.212.126 (talk) 21:32, 26 March 2016 (UTC)

text: Addition comment: If we can't sort this out between us here, I'm happy for a WP:RfC, so we can ask more members of the editing community here for imput and maybe a consensus we can both agree on. 90.214.212.126 (talk) 21:48, 26 March 2016 (UTC)
replies: text:  Your message above is encouraging, but at the same time you leave the message you make the same edit for the fourth time. So you are looking at a 3RR violation here. If you want to de-escalate things, and I take you at your word that you do, the best step you can take at this point is to self-revert, and then we can focus on having a productive conversation, preferably with you logged in under you regular RugbyXIII account and not an IP.

replies: text: If we are to talk civilised, you need to stop the edit warring/3rr accusations too. They are not helpful to either of us as we are BOTH involved in this dispute. You being a logged in editor does not give you rights to revert me, tell me off etc and it does not make your preferred version of the article more valid than mine. Let's leave the article as it was with User:Mattlore's edit for now as he is more neutral than us. If the community believes your way is best, it can be edited at a later date. I stand by my assertion that USA Rugby League is the correct hatnote per my above comment and as above, I'd welcome a RfC to establish a more clear consensus if you wish to go down that route. Finally, let me make this very clear, I am not User:RugbyXIII! I never have been and presumably never will be. I also do not share that users views on Rugby Union either. I actual like it as much as the next guy... So please, drop that. Thanks 90.214.212.126 (talk) 22:15, 26 March 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: As I've just stated on the ANI conversation; In my view, a hatnote distinguishing between an organisation called USA Rugby and one called USA Rugby League is a no brainer. It is relatively easy to confuse the two organisations (as it is the two Rugby codes). I would suggest you both stop editing this page until this conversation has been resolved.

replies: text: Thanks CUA, I've deliberately tried to avoid commenting on editing behaviour as others are better placed to judge on those matters. In terms of the outcome regarding the hatnote, it seems the right answer is to have a hatnote here as the two organisations are so similarly named. If this one was called USA Rugby Union then I would probably have a different view, but as it is using the generic Rugby term then a hatnote definitely seems appropriate.

message: I have protected this page for 12 hours to prevent ongoing edit warring. The only other option was to block all parties involved.
If the edit warring continues after the protection expires I will not protect again, but will instead block the person or persons involved. Get consensus on the talk page if someone reverts you. HighInBC 16:30, 27 March 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: I'll happily commit now to not reverting again. If CUA 27 removes or alters the hatnote again without consensus, even in say 6 months time, what action should I take? Thanks 90.214.212.126 (talk) 16:34, 27 March 2016 (UTC)
