Talk:List of career achievements by Wilt Chamberlain

message: Onamatopeia started this page as part of his project to improve the Wilt Chamberlain article. This is great I can't wait to see what he does with the article considering his work on Bill Russell. Quadzilla99 10:55, 14 February 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Just for the record, essentially all of this content came from the Wilt Chamberlain article prior to Onomatopoeia's recent updates.  Myasuda 12:46, 2 March 2007 (UTC)

message: I've begun the process of systematically adding Chamberlain's records to this article in a list format, somewhat more line with the format at Career achievements of Michael Jordan which I've recently cleaned up following some bad edits.  I find the list format a bit easier to scan for information.  I plan to add some annotating information back as I go (e.g., in some cases I'll provide the next entry on the list if it helps add context).  Expect to see a few rough edges for a bit . . . I'll have it cleaned up shortly, however.  Myasuda 04:34, 24 March 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm pretty much done with this round of edits.  My edit activity on this article will proceed at a more reduced pace for the foreseeable future.  If you have issues with the format, please bring it up here on this page.  Myasuda 19:13, 24 March 2007 (UTC)

message: Regarding Ogp's cite tag for the Hairston / Chamberlain factoid, it's certainly a legitimate request.  Although it's a true statement, I (unfortunately) can't find an on-line link that supports it.  I first encountered this somewhat surprising fact in an old Basketball Digest trivia quiz . . . but I've lost that particular issue many years ago.  I have, however, tracked this particular stat in the years after that Basketball Digest issue came out and no other one-team tandem has matched it.  Yeah, I am familiar with WP:NOR, but this type of tracking can be backed up by citing the Basketball Digest issue (if I could locate it) plus a brief consultation with  for the subsequent seasons (in which 1,000+ rebounders are relatively uncommon).  In other words, to validate the statement only requires one to perform a handful of queries and cross-referencing -- well below the threshold of effort of what I would ordinarily construe as "research".

message: Although it was originally started as a catalog of Wilt Chamberlain's career achievements, this article almost immediately became a repository for material pulled out of the oversized Wilt Chamberlain article: .  As such, the article name is somewhat misleading with respect to its content.  Not only is it considerably more than just a list, but most readers would probably also not expect the sections of "Chamberlain-Russell rivalry" and "Reputation" to be found in an article on Chamberlain's career achievements (so I don't think simply reverting to the article's original name  is an adequate solution).  
Is there a better name that can be given to this article?  Or should the non-list material be moved elsewhere, such as back to the Wilt Chamberlain article?  Can a new article be created from at least some of the non-list material?  Perhaps a combination of these proposals?  Or are other editors content with the status quo?  — Myasuda (talk) 11:15, 4 February 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: There is a book, The rivalry : Bill Russell, Wilt Chamberlain, and the golden age of basketball, on the rivaly with Russell.  That topic Russell–Chamberlain rivalry should easily be a standalone article.  The main bio should have a neutral writeup on Chamberlain's legacy including the classic knock that he was not a team player and was not Russell, but his individual skills surpassed everyone.  The bio has lots of details on individual season, but lacks critical discussion on his legacy.  Wilt_Chamberlain#Legacy currently is just a list in prose, with no/minimal analysis.  IMO this article should be primarily a list with text diffused into other articles.—Bagumba (talk) 02:35, 7 February 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree with these comments and support this proposal. — Myasuda (talk) 02:11, 8 February 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: I've gone ahead and move the sections under discussion back to the Wilt Chamberlain article.  See Talk:Wilt Chamberlain#Material contained in the .22List of career achievements by Wilt Chamberlain.22 article for more information. — Myasuda (talk) 22:22, 20 February 2012 (UTC)
