FYI, Template:NCAA Division III women's basketball tournament navbox is only missing 1997 NCAA Division III women's basketball tournament for completion.- TonyTheTiger ( T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 18:49, 9 March 2024 (UTC)
User:DaHuzyBru & User:Rikster2 can you see if anything needs to be in the infoboxes for Craig Lathen and Martell Bailey. I do not recall if I ever inquired about these guys and am thinking about GA nominations for them for the WP:CUP.- TonyTheTiger ( T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 13:47, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
User:DaHuzyBru & User:Rikster2, Chris Hill (basketball), can you add any WP:ICs from WP:RS for prose in this professional chronology.- TonyTheTiger ( T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 06:31, 27 March 2024 (UTC)
There seems to be an inconsistency/internal disagreement whether to use the full state name or the state's postal code for a player's hometown--currently it seems just as an estimate to be somewhere between a 25/75 split and a 33/67 split in favor of postal code. I'm planning on starting the project to make it uniform but I just want to get a gauge of what you all think might be better. I consulted WP:MOS just to be sure and in the abbreviations subpage it mentions using full name in body text, postal codes being permitted for tables but needing to use a tag on the first instance of each state, but I don't see anything about templates, which to me feels kind of like a weird in-between? I'm leaning towards postal codes just for consistency with the recruiting charts above the roster templates (and I think overall it looks cleaner), but I just wanted to get some input before making as many changes as this will be (a ton of teams across a ton of years), as well as the fact that if I go the opposite way from what consensus would've been it'd be quite a lot to clean up (which I'd happily do myself as the maker of said mess, but it's better if avoided of course).

template on first occurrence.
Just an FYI I have gone ahead and started taking care of this, in favor of postal abbreviations; I've done the first few teams needing the fix in the America East and I'm just gonna work my way through the conferences from the standings section of 2023–24 NCAA Division I men's basketball season. Was hoping to find a full alphabetical list (perhaps in a category) but this honestly is just as fine. As long as all teams are listed it works.
As an aside I'm intending on doing this for any game logs if they need them as well, though I didn't notice the issue with those, even on pages that used full state name in the roster template. Greenday61892 ( talk) 01:21, 23 March 2024 (UTC)

At Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_College_Basketball/Archive_10#4_or_5_Assistant_coaches, User:CalDoesIt presented a July 1, 2023 rule change that allowed up to 5 assistant coaches. As I watch Dusty May fill out his staff, they talk as if he is still limited to 3 assistants and the next hire would fill out the staff. Are they going back to 3 next year?- TonyTheTiger ( T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 21:41, 8 April 2024 (UTC)
How are we going to handle the second list of non-covid exception players since the source only goes down to 152 games now and next year will probably stop at around 155 or 156?- TonyTheTiger ( T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 04:09, 10 April 2024 (UTC)
I am pretty sure the NCAA does not keep a separate list on non-COVID era games played leaders. If not I struggle to see why the second list would be there. There is no list of games played leaders from before freshman eligibility Rikster2 ( talk) 16:35, 12 April 2024 (UTC)
2024–25 Michigan Wolverines men's basketball team has two holdovers from Juwan Howard's tenure who have a 5th year of eligibility remaining. I don't believe we are suppose to keep 5th year players on the roster until they announce that they will return. Another editor is including them on the roster until they announce that they will not return. What is right?- TonyTheTiger ( T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 23:34, 23 April 2024 (UTC)
