thread_title: VD and Censorship

message: The following should be included:
During the 2000-2001 season, Howard played for the Dallas Mavericks against the San Antonio Spurs in the second round of the playoffs. During a game, he slammed Spurs guard Derek Anderson to the floor, injuring Anderson, and was ejected. The Spurs easily defeated Dallas in the series but were swept by the Lakers in the next round, largely due to Anderson's injury. As a result, Howard is hated in San Antonio and is held responsible by fans for costing the Spurs the 2001 NBA Championship. --William S. Saturn (talk) 20:55, 19 May 2010 (UTC)

message: In the line: "On a team with All-star Michael Finley and future all-stars Steve Nash and Dirk Nowitzki, Howard was the highest paid player" - perhaps "future all-stars" should be replaced with "future MVPs" since this is accurate and more impressive.--William S. Saturn (talk) 07:51, 28 May 2010 (UTC)

message: Lead
*I think "man-games" needs a link or an explanation. I don't see anything to link to. I'm pretty sure "man-games" means the total number of games the team played multiplied by five. Also, the man-game numbers should appear in the main text if they appear in the lead since the lead is a summary. 
**Man game is not exactly the number of games multiplied by five, but in this case it is because we are talking about 5 guys.  During a season each player (man) can play in each game giving the possible number of games for that man as the number of games on the schedule.  There is no real link, but I am open to suggestions on addressing this issue.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR)  23:59, 1 September 2010 (UTC)

text: I think I could just add "another Chicago-area all-star" after Cunningham's name. This would be supportable but is not likely to be challenged, and it would make it more clear why Howard would be interested in Cunningham. Finetooth (talk) 17:40, 2 September 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: That is good for now. I am going to go into the Sun-Times archives in about an hour and see if I can help you any further.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR)  17:51, 2 September 2010 (UTC)

text: We could just delete the Prairie State Games sentence, which is the only one left in the paragraph that interrupts the logical flow of the prose. I'm not sure his performance in one game was of much significance. Finetooth (talk) 18:07, 2 September 2010 (UTC)

thread_title: Copyediting questions

message: *"During the 1992 summer, controversy arose when three Wolverines were found to have been paid $300 to participate in a charity basketball tournament and others, including Howard, appeared at several summer basketball camps together." The pay is a familiar no-no, but is appearing at basketball camps a no-no? I'm pretty fuzzy on the NCAA rules, so I wouldn't know one way or the other. If this is an NCAA rule, what problem is it supposed to address? Are they not supposed to go to these camps at all, or are they not supposed to go together? Or is it something else?

thread_title: Copyediting question (College career)

message: *"Temkin, Barry (1989-07-13). "On high schools". Chicago Tribune: p. 5, section ???." - Should a section name or number be added to each citation like this one with question marks?
*I think I found the article under a different title at online from the Tribune archive in the External links.  I have swapped it into the article.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR)  20:07, 5 September 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: What about the other 50 or so that end with three question marks? I don't think these will get through FAC. Here's a partial list of citations with the same problem: 21, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 36, 37, 38, 48, 49, 52. This is by no means the complete list. I was hoping you had handwritten notes or something with this data included. Finetooth (talk) 02:51, 6 September 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: I don't know why I put the question marks, but we now have the Tribune archive in the external links and can find links to all these articles.  What I had to do for the one above was go to the archive.  On the right side the articles are by date.  At the bottom on the right you will see a 1|2|3|4|5|next option. Click any of those.  At the top you will see the page number is the last character of the url. To go past 5 you have to do so manually by changing the URL.  All articles can be found I imagine.  You can start if you want. On Tuesday, I will have time to help out. I will do the odd ref numbers if you like.  Then we can remove the print edition page numbers.  I added the question marks because I know the Tribune has sections and these sports stories are usually in the sports section, which is not section one.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR)  04:00, 6 September 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Tony, I just don't have time to do this. I have many other things to do on Wikipedia as well as many outside responsibilities. I think the article is ready for FAC except for these tedious citation chores and perhaps adding a bit more about Howard's personal life, as noted above. I've been glad to help, but I don't actually need to be a co-nom or get a star for this. All I did was a careful c/e, mostly just a very careful proofreading. If you can find another co-nom who is willing to finish out this last part and maybe cast another set of eyes over the article, I won't mind at all. Finetooth (talk) 04:58, 6 September 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: I would not even feel right about not having you as a co-nom at this point.  You only have 5 days from when you start an article to get it up to WP:DYK standards.  Since I am in the WP:CUP I have to add a bit to a bunch of articles that I started in the last few days that are in this template.  I could lose 50 or 100 easy CUP points if I do not do this.  After I fill in a few more of the low hanging fruit from this template I will fill in the refs at Juwan Howard and add in the personal stuff.  I should be able to do some of that on Tuesday.  I am shooting to get this up at FAC before the end of the week. I assume you are watching this page. You will see me swap out the refs and fill in some personal stuff.  I think you should be along for the ride at FAC.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR)  06:09, 6 September 2010 (UTC)

text: I have swapped out the print refs for online refs.  Out of the dozens I could not find two in the Trib archives and had to go back to the ProQuest source.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR)  22:27, 6 September 2010 (UTC)

message: I think there needs to be something about Howards grandmother passing away on the day he signed with Michigan added to the artical. Then how the coaches showed up to give him support at the funeral. Here is some refs about that. http://mitchalbom.com/d/journalism/2904/tonights-nightthe-tall-man-middlelost-and-found-family  http://mitchalbom.com/d/journalism/3189/great-recruiting-chasehow-determined-u-m-wom-howard-and-webber this guy wrote a book with the info in it and here is a transcript from "The Fab Five" from ESPN Films http://livedash.ark.com/transcript/the_fab_five/33/ESPN/Friday_March_25_2011/574923/ Theworm777 (talk) 11:08, 13 March 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: * I see "Howard's grandmother died of a heart attack a few hours after he announced that he would attend Michigan" is in the start of the high school section, but it dont show how the coaches show up to give him support there and happened during his senior year. He also signed his letter of intent that day not just announce he was going there. Theworm777 (talk) 12:36, 13 March 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: *Do you have a suggested summary that you feel should be in the article? You seem to be more familiar with this issue than I. Would you care to take a stab at this issue?--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR)  14:11, 13 March 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: * On Nov. 14,1990 Howard's grandmother died of a heart attack a few hours after he signed his letter of intent to attend and play for Michigan. http://mitchalbom.com/d/journalism/3189/great-recruiting-chasehow-determined-u-m-wom-howard-and-webber Coach Fisher, his wife, Angie, and Coach Dutcher, showed up to give him support at her funeral. Them being there was important to Howard,http://livedash.ark.com/transcript/the_fab_five/33/ESPN/Friday_March_25_2011/574923/ who has said "It was like I lost one family, and I got another one". http://mitchalbom.com/d/journalism/2904/tonights-nightthe-tall-man-middlelost-and-found-family After her death, he moved in with his high school coach, Richard Cook, during his senior year.
Is something like I think it should be.But I am not sure where it should be at either after it says he announced he would attend Michigan on Nov. 2nd or at the end of the lead of the High School section also not sure if the 3 new sources are good enough. Theworm777 (talk) 17:25, 13 March 2013 (UTC)

replies: text: The source provided in the article says that it is. And unlike other biographies there appear to be no sources listed in the book itself. However, I have seen on Albom's website that it is listed as non-fiction so the question is now moot. DrKiernan (talk) 12:15, 12 May 2015 (UTC)

message: Hey! I saw you removed the section about the altercation with Gard – it is a recent event, but there have already been calls to fire him from his position as a result of that. (There are also countless twitter posts, though I doubt those contribute at all to this discussion, though there is this.) Seems like a pretty significant event that has gotten lots of recent news coverage – sure, it's recent, but that doesn't mean it's not able to be included. However, I am all ears for whatever you have to say here! Skarmory (talk • contribs) 00:56, 21 February 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: No doubt there is news coverage and random calls to fire him and twitter responses. But that's not what an encyclopedic biography is about. If this becomes enduring or there is some actual response that impacts his employment or status, then it would seem to be notable for inclusion. Until them, WP:RECENT seems to suggest avoiding any significant mention. --ZimZalaBim talk 02:04, 21 February 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: Okay; I suspect he'll get suspended eventually, which I assume would qualify under "impacts his employment or status". Until then, it can stay out, and if that never happens it'll stay out forever. Thanks! Skarmory (talk • contribs) 06:31, 21 February 2022 (UTC)
