If you are going to make a lengthy edit to this long table, please consider first adding the {{ inuse}} tag above the table so that other authors know that you are making a lengthy edit. Johntex\ talk 22:42, 12 July 2006 (UTC)
Why were my cell corrections overwritten? It was a pain doing that but it made the table look much better since it was complete. I like the addition of current coach, but my edit should not have been overwritten.-- NMajdan• talk 14:10, 12 July 2006 (UTC)
I think it would be better to list items as they exist as a page name. For example, Dan Hawkins (coach) instead of Dan Hawkins. This way, someone could use the table and simply cut and paste the name and not have to worry if there's a disambig or other type page they should be linking to. -- Mecu 15:55, 12 July 2006 (UTC)
Does anyone know if there is a standard on how the athletic pages should be named? There seems be be some that are School Athletics and some School Nickname. I personally think it should be School Nickname instead of the other way unless there's a name conflict like Texas Longhorn and Troy Trojans, then they could have the Athletics appended onto School Nickname Athletics.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Mecu ( talk • contribs)
Do we want to tag (add {tl|WikiProject College football}}) to the athletic pages of schools? Certainly the football pages, but I'm only half convinved we should tag the athletic pages. -- Mecu 16:03, 12 July 2006 (UTC)
"Maryland Terrapins" used to redirect to the University of Maryland page. I changed it so it redirected to University of Maryland athletics. When people search for "Maryland Terrapins," they probably usually are meaning the sports teams and not the university. I changed the redirect to reflect that.-- NMajdan• talk 20:01, 12 July 2006 (UTC)
Did the same thing with Texas A&M Aggies.-- NMajdan• talk 19:18, 13 July 2006 (UTC)
If we have the coach template on a page, do we still need to have a succession box on that page as well? See Bob Devaney as an example. He has the Nebraska and Wyoming coaching templates, but he also has succession boxes for both schools. Are they still needed?-- NMajdan• talk 21:47, 12 July 2006 (UTC)
I suggest that we are better off limiting the number of colunms on this table. Specifically, I don't think a column for web colors is needed. While these colors may be useful for templates related to the particular school, I think that information could better be stored on a talk page related to the university or their athletics program. Johntex\ talk 00:06, 13 July 2006 (UTC)
Given the recent additions of LSU pages and the existing Nebraska pages, what does everyone think about having just the years as wikilinks to the articles? This would save a lot of room in the cell and prevent the row from growing too large. So, instead of 2006 Oklahoma Sooners football team the link would just be 2006. It would be on the same row as the team so there shouldn't be any confusion regarding which team it is referring to.-- NMajdan• talk 16:29, 18 July 2006 (UTC)
Would any mind if I added a column for the logo image? It would be referenced like Logo inline and not displayed of course. With the season pages and the week-by-week format including a small image of the team, I think it would be handy to have this on the table as well. But I could see it taking up too much space as well. -- MECU≈ talk 18:13, 27 July 2006 (UTC)
I've started a template under my userspace for "supplamental" information. Links to the football page of the official website, the media guide(s), and the images (instead of here, though I'm waiting for the Fair Use debate to end before doing that really because otherwise it would be very limited use). If you'd like to help find information or can fill in any gaps (it's fairly bare right now) please do. If anyone thinks this might be better under the project, I'd be fine moving it. User:Mecu/CFBSupplementryTeamTable MECU≈ talk 04:34, 12 August 2006 (UTC)
For the teams that have a season template, I have removed all the years, except the current year. If you generate a season template, please do the same. -- MECU≈ talk 13:07, 23 September 2006 (UTC)
Why is one of the two major college programs known as USC referred to as South Carolina on the table, with the corresponding link South Carolina Gamecocks football, while the other is referred to only as USC, with the corresponding link USC Trojans football? Shouldn't the latter article be renamed Southern California Trojans football and the table entry disambiguated? Regards, PhilipR 19:42, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
Since there are now more and more I-AA and even a couple of Div-II team pages being made, would it make sense for this to become the I-A or 'FBS' Master Team Table and for somebody to put together a I-AA or 'FCS' Master Team Table? Then people could start filling in the teams and years for those schools as well as their interests dictate. I would like to start doing this but want to know if other people approve, since it would mean changing the name. Intrepidsfsu 07:29, 8 May 2007 (UTC)
Once the Division I FBS navboxes were created the season column was deleted because they could be viewed in the navboxes. (see above) I have a proposal to scrap the year column and add a column to list whether or not head coach articles, and season articles have been created my example [1].- UCO2009bluejay ( talk) 17:25, 24 August 2015 (UTC)
