Talk:Western Suburbs Magpies

message: I'm commencing a project, tabulating "players of note" - those who have played Test/State footy and other notable Wests players. It's an incremental process so any objections/suggestions, please reply here.--Alexio 12:23, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

message: If you search the words "Western Suburbs" you reach an article for a New Zealand soccer team. I think there should be a disambiguation page. In addition to the Magpies there's also a Brisbane Western Suburbs Panthers rugby league team (maybe the same should go for Wests too). What do others think?--Jeff79 00:44, 9 May 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Pre joint venture were they commonly known as Western Suburbs, or the full name Western Suburbs Magpies?Theanonymousentry (talk) 12:23, 18 July 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: They were mostly commonly referred to as Wests or Wests Magpies, but I think full name is appropriate. Doctorhawkes (talk) 01:28, 19 July 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: I'd heard Wests, Western Suburbs and Wests Magpies, but never really the full Western Suburbs Magpies. Happy to be consistent though.Theanonymousentry (talk) 07:33, 19 July 2016 (UTC)

message: The list shows Shane Perry and Jason Taylor (rugby league). Are these different people than who their links take us to? Because they haven't played for Australia if they're not.--Jeff79 03:55, 10 May 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Fair use rationale for Image:Westsmagpies.jpg

message: Good job on the jumpers which I assume Windler did, but not sure about the positioning. Being left of page with infobox on right means for about 21 lines of copy we have a very narrow (5 word) window. Doesn't look good. How about I move them to the right under the Infobox ? -Sticks66 13:26, 29 September 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  Placement of Jersey box 

message: There is the sentence on this Magpies article
The club was one of the foundation members of the Sydney rugby football league competition in 1908. Founded at a meeting on 4 February 1908, they won only one match that season so were the League's first wooden spooners.
This means that one or another article is incorrect. Wiki has an article on Wooden Spooners which has Cumberland as the 1908 wooden spooners. They repeat this on the article about Cumberland itself.
But an article on the 1908 season agrees with this article that it's Wests that deserves the title.
Both sets of articles can't all be right.
