Thanks for uploading File:Northwestern Mutual logo.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful.

Thanks for the new link - looks like you've found contradicting sources. The team says one thing, the league says something slightly different. I think the team is the slightly better source here, as stewards of their own identity, but didn't want to make the change without talking first. What do you think - team or league?

I noticed that you had added File:NBA Playoffs logo new.png to 2018 NBA Playoffs. I had to remove the image because there is no fair use rationale on the file description page for use on "2018 NBA Playoffs". Even though anyone could add a rationale, I still would not add the file even with the second rationale because I believe it would fail WP:NFCC#3a, which says that "Multiple items of non-free content are not used if one item can convey equivalent significant information", since the same logo will likely be used again and again at least for the next several years. Thank you. — MRD2014 Talk 02:07, 18 April 2018 (UTC)
Hello,
There will be some changes to the way wikitext is parsed during the next few weeks. It will affect all namespaces. You can see a list of pages that may display incorrectly at Special:LintErrors. Since most of the easy problems have already been solved at the English Wikipedia, I am specifically contacting tech-savvy editors such as yourself with this one-time message, in the hope that you will be able to investigate the remaining high-priority pages during the next month.
There are approximately 10,000 articles (and many more non-article pages) with high-priority errors. The most important ones are the articles with misnested tags and table problems. Some of these involve templates, such as infoboxes, or the way the template is used in the article. In some cases, the "error" is a minor, unimportant difference in the visual appearance. In other cases, the results are undesirable. You can see a before-and-after comparison of any article by adding ?action=parsermigration-edit to the end of a link, like this: /info/en/?search=Arthur_Foss?action=parsermigration-edit (which shows a difference in how {{ infobox ship}} is parsed).
If you are interested in helping with this project, please see Wikipedia:Linter. There are also some basic instructions (and links to even more information) at https://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikitech-ambassadors/2018-April/001836.html You can also leave a note at WT:Linter if you have questions.
Thank you for all the good things you do for the English Wikipedia. Whatamidoing (WMF) ( talk) 21:18, 19 April 2018 (UTC)

On 29 April 2018, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article 2015 White Sox–Orioles crowdless game, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that during the Baltimore Orioles– Chicago White Sox crowdless game three years ago today, announcer Gary Thorne called an Adam Jones at-bat in the hushed tone of golf announcers like Jim Nantz? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/2015 White Sox–Orioles crowdless game. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page ( here's how, 2015 White Sox–Orioles crowdless game), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

File:Anaheim Ducks wordmark logo.png is not a non-free file. It cannot be non-free because it is just letters. Files like this should be uploaded on Wikimedia Commons as they are public domain material. Otherwise uploading it as non-free would put the file in violations of WP:NFCC#8 as non-free files can only be used in one article. Corky 01:58, 7 May 2018 (UTC)
Hey. I saw that you updated several colors for old teams as can be seen here. I would like to know where to locate these logos in the NBA website?

Hi, I'm RonBot, a script that checks new non-free file uploads. I have found that the subject image that you recently uploaded was more than 5% in excess of the Non-free content guideline size of 100,000 pixels. I have tagged the image for a standard reduction, which (for jpg/gif/png/svg files) normally happens within a day. Please check the reduced image, and make sure that the image is not excessively corrupted. Other files will be added to Category:Wikipedia non-free file size reduction requests for manual processing. There is a full seven-day period before the original oversized image will be hidden; during that time you might want to consider editing the original image yourself (perhaps an initial crop to allow a smaller reduction or none at all). A formula for calculation the desired size can be found at WP:Image resolution, along with instructions on how to tag the image in the rare cases that it requires an oversized image (typically about 0.2% of non-free uploads are tagged as necessarily oversized). Please contact the bot owner if you have any questions, or you can ask them at Wikipedia talk:Non-free content. RonBot ( talk) 18:06, 23 May 2018 (UTC)

Firstly, I wanted to thank you for all your improvements to the page Governor's Cup (Florida). However I did want to ask about the shade of blue you are using for the Lightning in results table. As an avid TBL fan that has attended many games, I can categorically say that the shade of blue currently in their uniform is not anything close to the navy blue you switched to in the table. It's actually much closer to a royal blue, but a bit darker/richer than that. I understand that you might be going by a standard set elsewhere by another editor, but even with that in mind it doesn't really meet the eye-test. For my part, I don't plan on switching it on you, b/c that would be the pettiest of edit wars to get into. I'm just asking that you revisit the color choice. Kind regards and happy editing - Creativewill ( talk) 16:51, 3 June 2018 (UTC)
Hey, I'm currently in the process of writing a module to replace all the individual color templates. I dumped the existing templates into a data file at Module:Gridiron color/data, but I want to make sure that the data file doesn't get out of sync with the existing templates between now and when the module goes live. When you update the existing templates, could you update that file as well?
Each team is listed as an array of the format ["team name"] = {"primary color", "secondary color", "tertiary color", "alternative primary", "alternative secondary"}
. Alternative names are indicated using ["team alternative name"] = "team name"
Years are listed using XXXXthruXXXX
notation, and the module will take care of translating both the |year=
parameter as well as the the deprecated XXthruXX
notation. All colors are listed as hex-formatted colors with the # sign, as the module will take care of the formatting currently done for the various subtemplates (i.e. adding "background:" or "color:" or "/**/").
Thanks. --

Thanks for the work you put into 2018–19 NFC Championship Game. While I agree with the title you renamed it to, I moved it back to the old title for now since it's still up for debate, and I didn't want to officially change the title unless there's a consensus. Just wanted to invite you to the discussion page so you can share your thoughts. Regards -- WuTang94 ( talk) 16:49, 26 April 2019 (UTC)
Please do not remove the state from the team's city as you did in the New York Rangers' and New York Islanders' infoboxes and the the NHL's page. This is the standard for NHL and NBA pages. In addition, there was a user in the past who was running around using AWB doing the exact same thing and he got blocked several times for ignoring other users. – Sabbatino ( talk) 04:57, 11 May 2019 (UTC)
|location=
field in the infobox of the
Brooklyn Nets article, per this
edit diff. Honestly, I was only trying to make a
good faith edit in order to bring the Nets' article into line with other New York City area sports team articles, but I guess I must have forgotten what the
consensus was. IMO, it's too complicated to list the
boroughs in the |location=
field, unless there's apparently a specific consensus that has been reached by all editors involved. Should we poll other editors to gain a consensus for the |location=
field in the infobox for the
New York Islanders article as well? I'm only asking because apparently, the Islanders also play the majority of their NHL ice hockey games at the
Barclays Center.

for the NHL. I remember asking at
WT:NHL or the Islanders' talk page about it and editors were in favor of listing "New York City, New York" for the Islanders since Brooklyn is not a city and the parameter at ice hockey's infobox is for city. I do not think that the consensus would change this time so it is better not to waste time asking about it (of course you can do it if you want). –

The Los Angeles Chargers did indeed change their PrimaryStyle from navy blue to powder blue for the upcoming 2019 season. However, I think that the AltPrimaryStyle should be a navy blue background (with white text), instead of a gold background (with navy text). It's likely that the navy blue jerseys that were the team's primary home jersey in recent seasons will now be the alternate third jersey. DPH1110 ( talk) 20:55, 25 May 2019 (UTC)DPH1110
I did a partial revert on some of
your citation formatting at
2019 NBA Finals. Per {{

Please don't change reliable URLs to AP recaps, merely to have them point to the same content on NBA.com instead, such as this edit of yours on 2019 NBA Finals. First of all, it's unnecessary churn. Secondly, and perhaps more important, game URLs from NBA.com work differently depending on what country you are accessing it from, or perhaps whether you have League Pass or not. You might not have been aware, but this was brought up before at Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_National_Basketball_Association/Archive_31#Broad_pattern_of_editing_in_a_manner_that_is_counter_to_WP:V (see towards bottom).

Hello,
Google Code-In, Google-organized contest in which the Wikimedia Foundation participates, starts in a few weeks. This contest is about taking high school students into the world of opensource. I'm sending you this message because you recently edited a documentation page at the English Wikipedia.
I would like to ask you to take part in Google Code-In as a mentor. That would mean to prepare at least one task (it can be documentation related, or something else - the other categories are Code, Design, Quality Assurance and Outreach) for the participants, and help the student to complete it. Please sign up at the contest page and send us your Google account address to google-code-in-admins@lists.wikimedia.org, so we can invite you in!
From my own experience, Google Code-In can be fun, you can make several new friends, attract new people to your wiki and make them part of your community.
If you have any questions, please let us know at google-code-in-admins@lists.wikimedia.org.
Thank you!

I'm going to ask Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Accessibility if "brightness difference" should be considered as a component of WP:CONTRAST. As I explained here, the contrast checker website you cited for the Dolphins colors only "failed" black font because its "brightness difference" was not high enough. White font failed the contrast ratio entirely, but passed the "brightness difference", which is why the website said white font "sort of" meets WCAG, but I do not see anything at WP:ACCESSIBILITY about brightness being a factor here.

Hello. Yesterday and earlier this week I changed the style of several NFL navboxes. I used 'Gridiron alt primary style' in the |basestyle=
and |abovestyle=
cells because it gave a nice looking contrast to NFLPrimaryStyle in the |titlestyle=
bar. Now all of sudden those two cells have the same style in many of the navboxes. See
Template:CardinalsFirstPick and even
Template:New York Jets which I never touched. Yesterday and several days before I believe, those lower cells were white with team primary colored text. All Cardinals, Jets and Colts navboxes did the same thing. The reason I'm asking you is I see you made some edits at
Module:Gridiron color/data. Do you know what happened? Thank you. --

|basestyle=
contrasted with the background color in the |titlestyle=
. Actually, now that I mention it, I reverted the wiki-code formatting for the team color codes for the teams mentioned earlier so that the background color in the |basestyle=
is now white with team colored text. I did this so as to provide a nice contrast between the primary color & white text in the background of the |titlestyle=
& the white background & primary team color in the |basestyle=
. It does look better this way. I also promise not to tinker with or change it back, unless the teams' themselves change their own color codes in the future.

I see that you have been flip-flopping on colors, such as with the Brooklyn Nets at Module:Sports color/basketball. I'm not here to argue for one color scheme vs. another. However, I suggest that your edit summary includes a rationale—preferably objective—on why you are changing the color. Then others will know the reason for the change. Perhaps that can also reduce the vacillation. Regards.— Bagumba ( talk) 06:21, 10 August 2020 (UTC)
|titlestyle=
contrasted with the background color for the |basestyle=
. Having said that, team colored text on a white background is not necessarily easy to see or read in a template, unless a |border=
is present also. You're right, though. I will do better to further explain my rationale in my future edit summaries.

Dear @ Charlesaaronthompson:,
Greetings. I was curious how you changed the footer colors for Template:1980 Philadelphia Phillies. How did you find that maroon color? Is there a resource page with all the colors you can use for templates? Could you please leave me a message telling me more about this? Thank you so much.

An editor has expressed concern about your editing at places such as Module:Sports color/basketball, in which you make and then unmake changes repeatedly. Obviously that module is not under TPE, but it still raises questions about the disruption of these types of changes makes. I chatted about it with another admin and while we find no action to take here, we just want to warn you to be more cautious in the future about your changes and the rationale behind them, especially if it relates to TPE templates.

Just an FYI, the team you moved as the
Cleveland Charge is not yet confirmed by any sources, including the one
you are citing. In fact, that cite is why it was named what it was (referred to by the Cavs as Charge NBA G League franchise
in the first sentence with Further details on the team name, logos and merchandise information will be announced in the near future
in the last paragraph). The team is still using "Charge NBA G League team"
the most recent press release. Per
WP:NAMECHANGES,
WP:COMMONNAME, and
WP:OFFICIALNAME, the name you moved it from fit the relevant guidelines more accurately. The articles I found that uses "Cleveland Charge" are currently speculative in nature. Thank you,

Hi, Charlesaaronthompson, how 're you doing? Effectively I bought a new computer, but I've had some problems of software and hardware compatiblities that made me impossible to edit and/or update the uniforms. The point is, all my uniforms had been created with CorelDraw v13 (that runs perfectly on Win 7, but my new PC has Win 10 installed); Unfortunately this version of CD does not run on Win 10 so I had to search another computer to convert my Corel files to previous versions that allow me to edit them on my new PC.
I'm working hard on it so I think it could be solved before the weekend. My aim is to have all ready to edit them and even create new uniforms on my PC. Please, be patient while I try to solve it ASAP. Thanks for your support and confidence! Fma12 ( talk) 22:06, 15 September 2021 (UTC)

Thank you for uploading File:Sports Illustrated cover January 21 2002.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this file on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the file description page and adding or clarifying the reason why the file qualifies under this policy. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your file is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for files used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.
If it is determined that the file does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator seven days after the file was tagged in accordance with section F7 of the criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you. Ytoyoda ( talk) 17:35, 18 October 2021 (UTC)

I should remind you that WP:BRD quite clearly says not to re-insert content if you are reverted and start a discussion. The color codes for the Arizona Coyotes that I listed come from the logo in the Coyotes official website ( link to logo), while you insist on using the color codes from records.nhl.com ( logo from there). The same applies to the Philadelphia Flyers (which you changed also) and every other active NHL team. In addition, your obsession with color codes looks like WP:OWN, because this is not the first time that you do this. – sbaio 18:36, 24 May 2023 (UTC)

You have already been told more than once to stop playing with the "Undo" button at Module:Sports color/basketball.

I suggest you stop or I will have no other option, but to report your behavior. – sbaio 19:13, 19 December 2023 (UTC)
I'm done playing with the "undo" button as it is, and I plan to stop making repeated changes.– this is not the first time that you have repeated this so I do not really believe that it will not happen again after a while. But we will see. Now regarding the colors – we always use the "reproduction and usage guideline sheet" (you know that very well) unless a press release by the team states otherwise. This source does not say anything about green and white being the main colors so the NBA Media Central source is the only reliable source at this point. – sbaio 18:30, 21 December 2023 (UTC)

I just now saw that you have the most unthinkably extensive history of bad decisions and behavior, and corrective action taken against you, about editing templates. So I have to just echo that here for the record. You added one particular sports facility to the template for the entire top-level metropolitan area which already has "sports". It doesn't get a lot more obvious how inappropriate this idea was, for anybody ever, even for a new user's first edit. But especially after what you've already put everyone through and how much time and frustration you've wasted of how many volunteers for years. — Smuckola (talk) 03:50, 21 January 2024 (UTC)

I noticed that you had added File:NBA Playoffs logo new.png to 2018 NBA Playoffs. I had to remove the image because there is no fair use rationale on the file description page for use on "2018 NBA Playoffs". Even though anyone could add a rationale, I still would not add the file even with the second rationale because I believe it would fail WP:NFCC#3a, which says that "Multiple items of non-free content are not used if one item can convey equivalent significant information", since the same logo will likely be used again and again at least for the next several years.

Hello,
There will be some changes to the way wikitext is parsed during the next few weeks. It will affect all namespaces. You can see a list of pages that may display incorrectly at Special:LintErrors. Since most of the easy problems have already been solved at the English Wikipedia, I am specifically contacting tech-savvy editors such as yourself with this one-time message, in the hope that you will be able to investigate the remaining high-priority pages during the next month.
There are approximately 10,000 articles (and many more non-article pages) with high-priority errors. The most important ones are the articles with misnested tags and table problems. Some of these involve templates, such as infoboxes, or the way the template is used in the article. In some cases, the "error" is a minor, unimportant difference in the visual appearance. In other cases, the results are undesirable. You can see a before-and-after comparison of any article by adding ?action=parsermigration-edit to the end of a link, like this: /info/en/?search=Arthur_Foss?action=parsermigration-edit (which shows a difference in how {{ infobox ship}} is parsed).
If you are interested in helping with this project, please see Wikipedia:Linter. There are also some basic instructions (and links to even more information) at https://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikitech-ambassadors/2018-April/001836.html You can also leave a note at WT:Linter if you have questions.

Hi, I'm RonBot, a script that checks new non-free file uploads. I have found that the subject image that you recently uploaded was more than 5% in excess of the Non-free content guideline size of 100,000 pixels. I have tagged the image for a standard reduction, which (for jpg/gif/png/svg files) normally happens within a day. Please check the reduced image, and make sure that the image is not excessively corrupted. Other files will be added to Category:Wikipedia non-free file size reduction requests for manual processing. There is a full seven-day period before the original oversized image will be hidden; during that time you might want to consider editing the original image yourself (perhaps an initial crop to allow a smaller reduction or none at all). A formula for calculation the desired size can be found at WP:Image resolution, along with instructions on how to tag the image in the rare cases that it requires an oversized image (typically about 0.2% of non-free uploads are tagged as necessarily oversized). Please contact the bot owner if you have any questions, or you can ask them at Wikipedia talk:Non-free content. RonBot ( talk) 18:06, 23 May 2018 (UTC)

Firstly, I wanted to thank you for all your improvements to the page Governor's Cup (Florida). However I did want to ask about the shade of blue you are using for the Lightning in results table. As an avid TBL fan that has attended many games, I can categorically say that the shade of blue currently in their uniform is not anything close to the navy blue you switched to in the table. It's actually much closer to a royal blue, but a bit darker/richer than that. I understand that you might be going by a standard set elsewhere by another editor, but even with that in mind it doesn't really meet the eye-test. For my part, I don't plan on switching it on you, b/c that would be the pettiest of edit wars to get into. I'm just asking that you revisit the color choice. Kind regards and happy editing - Creativewill ( talk) 16:51, 3 June 2018 (UTC)
Hey, I'm currently in the process of writing a module to replace all the individual color templates. I dumped the existing templates into a data file at Module:Gridiron color/data, but I want to make sure that the data file doesn't get out of sync with the existing templates between now and when the module goes live. When you update the existing templates, could you update that file as well?
Each team is listed as an array of the format ["team name"] = {"primary color", "secondary color", "tertiary color", "alternative primary", "alternative secondary"}
. Alternative names are indicated using ["team alternative name"] = "team name"
Years are listed using XXXXthruXXXX
notation, and the module will take care of translating both the |year=
parameter as well as the the deprecated XXthruXX
notation. All colors are listed as hex-formatted colors with the # sign, as the module will take care of the formatting currently done for the various subtemplates (i.e. adding "background:" or "color:" or "/**/").
Thanks. --

What are your reasons for changing the Celtics' colors? That NBA.com source only mentions that those colors are part of the new "City Edition" uniform and does not say anything about the changing of team's color scheme.

|location=
field in the infobox of the
Brooklyn Nets article, per this
edit diff. Honestly, I was only trying to make a
good faith edit in order to bring the Nets' article into line with other New York City area sports team articles, but I guess I must have forgotten what the
consensus was. IMO, it's too complicated to list the
boroughs in the |location=
field, unless there's apparently a specific consensus that has been reached by all editors involved. Should we poll other editors to gain a consensus for the |location=
field in the infobox for the
New York Islanders article as well? I'm only asking because apparently, the Islanders also play the majority of their NHL ice hockey games at the
Barclays Center.

WT:NHL or the Islanders' talk page about it and editors were in favor of listing "New York City, New York" for the Islanders since Brooklyn is not a city and the parameter at ice hockey's infobox is for city.

The Los Angeles Chargers did indeed change their PrimaryStyle from navy blue to powder blue for the upcoming 2019 season. However, I think that the AltPrimaryStyle should be a navy blue background (with white text), instead of a gold background (with navy text). It's likely that the navy blue jerseys that were the team's primary home jersey in recent seasons will now be the alternate third jersey. DPH1110 ( talk) 20:55, 25 May 2019 (UTC)DPH1110

Please don't change reliable URLs to AP recaps, merely to have them point to the same content on NBA.com instead, such as this edit of yours on 2019 NBA Finals. First of all, it's unnecessary churn.

Hello,
Google Code-In, Google-organized contest in which the Wikimedia Foundation participates, starts in a few weeks. This contest is about taking high school students into the world of opensource. I'm sending you this message because you recently edited a documentation page at the English Wikipedia.
I would like to ask you to take part in Google Code-In as a mentor. That would mean to prepare at least one task (it can be documentation related, or something else - the other categories are Code, Design, Quality Assurance and Outreach) for the participants, and help the student to complete it. Please sign up at the contest page and send us your Google account address to google-code-in-admins@lists.wikimedia.org, so we can invite you in!
From my own experience, Google Code-In can be fun, you can make several new friends, attract new people to your wiki and make them part of your community.
If you have any questions, please let us know at google-code-in-admins@lists.wikimedia.org.

Hey there, just wanted to let you know it appears the Chargers have fully let go of navy blue as their color scheme. In Module:Gridiron color/data, it should be removed anywhere from the current scheme in the table. (which appears to be one of the last two codes, can't remember the exact name but it is the text color on the secondary color code) and probably replaced with powder blue.-- GalaxyFighter55 ( talk) 05:55, 25 March 2020 (UTC)

I'm going to ask Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Accessibility if "brightness difference" should be considered as a component of WP:CONTRAST. As I explained here, the contrast checker website you cited for the Dolphins colors only "failed" black font because its "brightness difference" was not high enough. White font failed the contrast ratio entirely, but passed the "brightness difference", which is why the website said white font "sort of" meets WCAG, but I do not see anything at WP:ACCESSIBILITY about brightness being a factor here.

Just so you know, you don't need to include the "LLC" in the "publisher" parameter of citations. Per Template:cite web/doc, "Corporate designations such as 'Ltd', 'Inc.', or 'GmbH' are not usually included". Although "LLC" is not listed there, it is also a corporate designation and is thus covered by that statement. – Pee Jay 06:54, 11 June 2020 (UTC)

Hi Charles, how're you? I'm here again hoping you clear me that point: the Buccaneers uniform I designed ( this) was removed from the team article alleging they are "inaccurate" ( view edit here), so my question is... why? I designed it based on photos showed at the official Buccaneers website.

Hello. Yesterday and earlier this week I changed the style of several NFL navboxes. I used 'Gridiron alt primary style' in the |basestyle=
and |abovestyle=
cells because it gave a nice looking contrast to NFLPrimaryStyle in the |titlestyle=
bar. Now all of sudden those two cells have the same style in many of the navboxes. See
Template:CardinalsFirstPick and even
Template:New York Jets which I never touched. Yesterday and several days before I believe, those lower cells were white with team primary colored text. All Cardinals, Jets and Colts navboxes did the same thing. The reason I'm asking you is I see you made some edits at
Module:Gridiron color/data. Do you know what happened? Thank you. --

|basestyle=
contrasted with the background color in the |titlestyle=
. Actually, now that I mention it, I reverted the wiki-code formatting for the team color codes for the teams mentioned earlier so that the background color in the |basestyle=
is now white with team colored text. I did this so as to provide a nice contrast between the primary color & white text in the background of the |titlestyle=
& the white background & primary team color in the |basestyle=
. It does look better this way. I also promise not to tinker with or change it back, unless the teams' themselves change their own color codes in the future.

I see that you have been flip-flopping on colors, such as with the Brooklyn Nets at Module:Sports color/basketball. I'm not here to argue for one color scheme vs. another. However, I suggest that your edit summary includes a rationale—preferably objective—on why you are changing the color. Then others will know the reason for the change. Perhaps that can also reduce the vacillation. Regards.— Bagumba ( talk) 06:21, 10 August 2020 (UTC)
|titlestyle=
contrasted with the background color for the |basestyle=
. Having said that, team colored text on a white background is not necessarily easy to see or read in a template, unless a |border=
is present also. You're right, though. I will do better to further explain my rationale in my future edit summaries.

Just an FYI, the team you moved as the
Cleveland Charge is not yet confirmed by any sources, including the one
you are citing. In fact, that cite is why it was named what it was (referred to by the Cavs as Charge NBA G League franchise
in the first sentence with Further details on the team name, logos and merchandise information will be announced in the near future
in the last paragraph). The team is still using "Charge NBA G League team"
the most recent press release. Per
WP:NAMECHANGES,
WP:COMMONNAME, and
WP:OFFICIALNAME, the name you moved it from fit the relevant guidelines more accurately. The articles I found that uses "Cleveland Charge" are currently speculative in nature. Thank you,

Hi, Charlesaaronthompson, how 're you doing? Effectively I bought a new computer, but I've had some problems of software and hardware compatiblities that made me impossible to edit and/or update the uniforms. The point is, all my uniforms had been created with CorelDraw v13 (that runs perfectly on Win 7, but my new PC has Win 10 installed); Unfortunately this version of CD does not run on Win 10 so I had to search another computer to convert my Corel files to previous versions that allow me to edit them on my new PC.
I'm working hard on it so I think it could be solved before the weekend. My aim is to have all ready to edit them and even create new uniforms on my PC. Please, be patient while I try to solve it ASAP. Thanks for your support and confidence! Fma12 ( talk) 22:06, 15 September 2021 (UTC)

Hey, Charlesaaronthompson. I'd like to wish you a wonderful First Edit Day on behalf of the
Wikipedia Birthday Committee! Have a great day! Chris Troutman ( talk) 21:06, 12 January 2023 (UTC) |
Ok fair enough, however I'm 99.9% certain silver will be added on that sheet seeing as how each uniform kit now displays it. GalaxyFighter55 ( talk) 04:00, 21 April 2023 (UTC)
I should remind you that WP:BRD quite clearly says not to re-insert content if you are reverted and start a discussion. The color codes for the Arizona Coyotes that I listed come from the logo in the Coyotes official website ( link to logo), while you insist on using the color codes from records.nhl.com ( logo from there). The same applies to the Philadelphia Flyers (which you changed also) and every other active NHL team. In addition, your obsession with color codes looks like WP:OWN, because this is not the first time that you do this. – sbaio 18:36, 24 May 2023 (UTC)
Thanks for uploading File:Chick-fil-A Kickoff Game logo.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. -- B-bot ( talk) 02:06, 16 July 2023 (UTC)

Please do not change the templates and tables to use blue as the primary color; per the brand statement, green is still the primary color for the team and blue is secondary. Sounder Bruce 02:28, 12 December 2023 (UTC)
You have already been told more than once to stop playing with the "Undo" button at Module:Sports color/basketball. You have made the same change regarding Boston Celtics colors almost 30 times since April 2022 and that is very annoying. I suggest you stop or I will have no other option, but to report your behavior. – sbaio 19:13, 19 December 2023 (UTC)
I'm done playing with the "undo" button as it is, and I plan to stop making repeated changes.– this is not the first time that you have repeated this so I do not really believe that it will not happen again after a while. But we will see. Now regarding the colors – we always use the "reproduction and usage guideline sheet" (you know that very well) unless a press release by the team states otherwise. This source does not say anything about green and white being the main colors so the NBA Media Central source is the only reliable source at this point. – sbaio 18:30, 21 December 2023 (UTC)
Happy First Edit Day! Hi Charlesaaronthompson! On behalf of the Birthday Committee, I'd like to wish you a very happy anniversary of the day you made your first edit and became a Wikipedian! The Herald (Benison) ( talk) 02:35, 11 January 2024 (UTC) |
I just now saw that you have the most unthinkably extensive history of bad decisions and behavior, and corrective action taken against you, about editing templates. So I have to just echo that here for the record. You added one particular sports facility to the template for the entire top-level metropolitan area which already has "sports". It doesn't get a lot more obvious how inappropriate this idea was, for anybody ever, even for a new user's first edit. But especially after what you've already put everyone through and how much time and frustration you've wasted of how many volunteers for years. — Smuckola (talk) 03:50, 21 January 2024 (UTC)
Okay so then at another glance, I see more. You just can't stop. All WP:FANCRUFT must be compulsively interlinked. here and here. If I look through your edit history more, how much more WP:TRIVIAl abuse of templates am I going to find or are you going to revert yourself and stop? — Smuckola (talk) 03:55, 21 January 2024 (UTC)
You linked a song to the Chiefs team template, because the song was played at the stadium once. OMG, that's just desperately unreal. WP:TRIVIA WP:FANCRUFT — Smuckola (talk) 04:16, 21 January 2024 (UTC)
@ Primefac: I don't know if you handle this stuff, but I sure can't! — Smuckola (talk) 04:23, 21 January 2024 (UTC)
@ Smuckola: OK. I get it. I'm sorry. I'll revert myself and stop. I need to know what other articles you need me to revert so I can stop. Charlesaaronthompson ( talk) 04:25, 21 January 2024 (UTC)
The article Jazz–Nuggets rivalry has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
Not a notable rivalry, as evidenced by the used source as well
