message: :Image:Northwestern si 1995.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is  other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page.  Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

message: I don't think splitting the article is necessary for the 2006 and 2007 teams.  I don't see why a 4-8 football team should get its own page.  If NU is nationally ranked or invited to a bowl game later in the season, a page for the 2007 team would be reasonable.  That hasn't happened yet, though.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Bolt Vanderhuge (talk • contribs) 20:17, 12 October 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Fair enough.  I thought there was a move on the College Football project to create pages for each season - that any season was notable enough for an article.  Hoof Hearted 14:50, 16 October 2007 (UTC)

message: This would be a good section to add. Not necessarily a line for each season, but a summary for each coach's total record with Northwestern. See Wisconsin Badgers football#Coaching history or Minnesota Golden Gophers football#All-time records for ideas.

message: I check pages listed in :Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of :Northwestern Wildcats football's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT⚡ 19:31, 4 June 2022 (UTC)

message: It's completely correct and good that the recent hazing scandal that resulted in Fitz's firing is included in this article. However, the current approach (cheekily listing a couple of the hazing practices that came to light after students came forward under "traditions") is probably not ideal. 
If it's to be included, it should be given a proper write-up. 12.249.24.134 (talk) 19:20, 3 August 2023 (UTC)
