The Entire Article
This article needs heavy re-editing and also may need to be protected from being vandalized. It is factually incorrect and contains material that are clearly pranks.
-.) Someone has listed Ben Wallace as having won the award 9 times. -.) In addition, the 1982-83 winner is listed Turd Fergerson of the Watertown Red Raiders. Obviously not a realy person or team. It's just someone defacing the article. 69.251.238.117 ( talk) 02:34, 21 May 2008 (UTC)
This is moved from the article. Not sure what to do with this trivia-like info.
Teams with Defensive Player of the Year Award winners have typically performed well in the playoffs.
There seems to be an edit war going on over the addition [1] of two pieces of information about the winners of the award, and their other honors. I agree that the footnotes are trivial, but I'm certainly willing to listen to both sides of the discussion. Dayewalker ( talk) 04:23, 1 May 2009 (UTC)
(OD)As an aside to Crzycheetah, you are very much wrong about vandalism and the 3RR rule. Any editors good faith attempt to improve the wiki, including removing trivia (which is what his opinion of the footnotes was), is not vandalism and is not immune to the 3RR rule. Please read those sections carefully, I'd hate for you to get in trouble in the future. Dayewalker ( talk) 06:14, 1 May 2009 (UTC)
