I think that a single undifferentiated column of honorees looks like hell. Not user friendly and not good looking on a proper computer screen. IMO, A single lined list of over 800 names (potentially) is bad formatting. 7&6=thirteen ( ☎) 20:29, 7 March 2016 (UTC)
Many of the citations to the AHoF's inductee profiles appear to listing the year said person was inducted in place of the year that the web pages were actually published. Since the World Wide Web wasn't invented until the early 1990s, we should never really see a publication year of 1969 for a web-only source. Now, if a website is republishing an older source, that's different, but I do no think that is the case here.
Louis Chevrolet may have been inducted in 1969, but there is no indication that
his profile page was written in 1969, so the year should be stripped. In fact, since there is no indication at all of when that profile was written, the best practice would be to use |date=n.d.
to explicitly indicate that it has no date of publication. In that case, an access date is of paramount importance. This, and every other example, needs to be fixed lest we give our readers false information about our sources.
