Hi Muboshgu. I saw your most recent edits. Finally, someone opened their eyes and saw the problems with the cites that I repeatedly mentioned in my edit comments and on Cresix's talk page. :) In terms of "wide coverage", that is an objective fact, not subjective or POV. Have you read Clint Eastwood at the 2012 Republican National Convention? Here are a few quotes from that article, which of course are fully supported by the sources and the facts:
Clearly, that article and the sources absolutely verify that the speech received wide media coverage. It's a fact, not an opinion. Would anyone who's familiar with the speech say that it did not receive wide media coverage? Of course not. The problem with the wording in Clint Eastwood, as it stands now, is that it gives no indication whatsoever how "big"/prominent the speech was in the media (newspapers, television, online, etc). It is the most famous speech Eastwood has ever given, and will certainly be the one he's most remembered for. Yet reading the article gives no indication of that at all. It needs to do that to accurately reflect what happened. In any case, thank you for being the first editor to recognize the problems with the cites that I had alluded to many times. When someone deletes an entire edit, including all the good parts, it indicates that it's personal rather than to help improve the project. Thanks. --76.189.97.91 (talk) 22:09, 8 September 2012 (UTC)
I've dropped a few comments about minor issues. Overall, you've done a great job in improving the list and getting it to where it is now.
Could you return the favor and review the FLC I nominated. It's just one review away from getting promoted. Cheers! —Bloom6132 (talk) 11:23, 9 September 2012 (UTC)
This is to make you aware that User:Activist copy and pasted my and Cresix's comments from Cresix's talk page and his own talk page into the Clint Eastwood talk page, as if Cresix and I posted them there ourselves. Here's the edit. I couldn't believe it when I saw it because I knew I hadn't posted those comments there. Activist did not have my permission to do that, and I assume he did not have Cresix's permission either. I removed Cresix's and my comments from the Eastwood talk page. Activist also copy and pasted his own comment from Cresix's talk page, including the original date/time posted. I'm not sure what can be done about this, but I'll leave it up to you and Cresix to decide. I don't know Activist, but I told him in my edit comment never to do that again. I do agree that the empty chair speech content needs to be expanded a bit in the Eastwood article, but what Activist did is ridiculously inappropriate. I'm writing you about this since you are the one who started the Eastwood talk page thread. I also wrote Cresix about this. --76.189.97.91 (talk) 20:49, 9 September 2012 (UTC)

I was about to promote this to a prep area but I noticed your approval note said "I would suggest using ALT1 after a slight rewrite for clarity", which to me means that you have a problem with ALT1 as it is, but still think it superior to the others.
Approved hooks are currently at a premium: there are 15 to fill 9 slots, and a lot of them deserve consideration as lead slots which means they're less likely to be chosen: Happy Wheels is a prime target. Please consider making that rewrite yourself; I've just failed at my own attempt, so I'll hold off promoting it for now, but I think you're more likely to end up with one of the other hooks (or, worse, an unedited ALT1).

Muboshgu, I was going through the list of DYK nominees, looking for missing QPQs, and I think you oversupplied for Joe Molloy. It's a double-hook nom, but you supplied both a single review (Happy Wheels) and a triple-hook review. The triple was more than sufficient. Feel free to remove Happy Wheels from that one and use it elsewhere. (Not that we couldn't use more reviews, mind you, but I didn't want you to waste one unless you really wanted to.)

Hi Muboshgu, I figured I should let you know that the photo you uploaded does not include Paul DePodesta – this is what he actually looks like. I re-captioned the photo on Billy Beane's page, and removed it from DePodesta's, because it isn't really relevant anymore. I totally understand the mistake - I've done the same exact thing when a Flickr uploader mislabled their photo. I just wanted to make sure you didn't think I removed it for no reason. Thanks.

Since both of us have worked on this list fairly equally (you with the refs, me with the lead), would you like me to co-nominate this with you? I understand that you currently have two FLCs running, but I have none at the moment. So we could potentially get this passed in time for you to count this towards the WikiCup. The only things needed to be fixed are some of the citation formats; if you could fix those (and maybe find a source for the second last sentence of the lead), I could start the nomination.

Hi Muboshgu, you recently removed a deletion tag from Bill Geivett. Because Wikipedia policy does not allow the creator of the page to remove speedy deletion tags, an automated program has replaced the tag. Although the deletion proposal may be incorrect, removing the tag is not the correct way for you to contest the deletion, even if you are more experienced than the nominator. Instead, please use the talk page to explain why the page should not be deleted. Remember to be patient, there is no harm in waiting for another experienced user to review the deletion and judge what the right course of action is. As you are involved, and therefore potentially biased, you should refrain from doing this yourself. Thank you, - SDPatrolBot (talk) 16:53, 1 October 2012 (UTC)
We're over half way through the final, and so it is less than a month until we know for certain our 2012 WikiCup champion. Grapple X (submissions) currently leads, followed by Sasata (submissions), Cwmhiraeth (submissions) and Casliber (submissions). However, we have no one resembling a breakaway leader, and so the competition is a long way from over. Next month's newsletter will feature a list of our winners (who are not necessarily only the finalists) and keep your eyes open for an article on the WikiCup in a future edition of The Signpost. The leaders are already on a par with last year's winners, but a long way from the huge scores seen in 2010. That said, a repeat of the competition from 2010 seems unlikely.
It is good to see that three-quarters of our finalists have already scored bonus points this round. This shows that, contrary to criticism that the WikiCup has received in the past, the competition does not merely incentivise the writing of trivial articles; instead, our top competitors are still spending their time contributing to high-importance articles, and bringing them to a high standard. This does a great service to the encyclopedia and its readers. Thank you, and good work!
The planning for next year's WikiCup is ongoing. Some straw polls have been opened concerning the scoring, and you can now sign up for next year's competition. As ever, if you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is at good article candidates, a featured process, or anywhere else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews. Questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. Good luck!

You, however, seem to be someone I can work with. I'm currently working on Foster's article. I'm probably going to Ken Henderson's next.--71.54.247.55 (talk) 12:49, 5 October 2012 (UTC) --J.S.
Hi, Muboshgu. I have a couple of questions for you.
1) When linking an article to Portal:National Football League, I see the icon. However, when I link it to the redirect Portal:NFL, instead I get the generic puzzle piece instead of the NFL icon. Why is that and how could it be remedied?
2) If I was try getting an umpire article or article(s) to GA status, how long do you think the articles would be expected to be? After all, umpires don't get nearly as much coverage as players, so there isn't nearly as much to write about in many cases. You have plenty of GA experience, do you know what the expectations would be regarding umpire pages?

Re: Freddie Lindstrom. Since I have had no luck getting PM800 to answer my post questioning the two paragraphs and eight footnotes he added to Freddie Lindstrom, I turn to you again because you're the one who deleted my previous additions to his version. In an earlier note PM800 told me all his footnotes were reliable, and if I had questions to go to them. So I did. Here are the results: Footnote 30, correct. 31 (Richard Barbieri, Hardball Times) makes no mention of Lindstrom. 32 and 33 (Jay Jaffe, Baseball Prospectus)in e-mail Aug 24,2012 agrees that his charge of "croneyism" by the Veterans Committee's so-called ringleader Frank Frisch highly unlikely since Frisch died 3 years before Lindstrom's nomination. Jaffe also said he had no evidence to support the claim. 34, correct, but a blanket accusation of the committee's choices in general, not of croneyism toward former Giants and Cardinals. 35, unable to verify because of restricted access. 36 (Clark Booth, Dorchester Times) in e-mail Oct 5, 2012 says "I don't actually have any issue with Freddie being in the HOF," he said. "Mainly I argue for more people to be elected, not fewer. I think Freddie was a good choice." 37, James has all the right in the world to his opinion that Lindstrom is the worst third baseman in the Hall. But others such as Hall of Fame sportswriter Red Smith, Bob Broeg and Fred Lieb called him a worthy choice (attribution available, if you're interested). All I ask is that the unsubstantiated "croney" charge be deleted and that we add Dan Popoloski's 11/11/2011 Bleacher Report ranking Lindstrom 13th in a list of the 15 best 3d basemen in MLB history. Wouldn't that be fair comment and not a violation of WP:NPOV? Thanks for your help. 74.248.63.124 (talk) 15:59, 12 October 2012 (UTC) 74.248.47.55.

Proposition 32 is a controversial ballot measure in California. It is best left as neutral as possible. What was posted, though cited, was clearly promoting one agenda over the other and therefore not accurately reporting the proposition which has both pros and cons. Unless you want a war of words, which will make the article unwieldy, I suggest a simple, neutral summary be used. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ahavtiyah (talk • contribs) 20:35, 15 October 2012 (UTC)

How can the croneyism charge in Lindstrom's case be true if Frisch died in 1973 and Lindstrom was inducted in 1976? This claim apparently goes back to Bill James more than 30 years ago with no attribution or evidence except his own opinion. He lumps Lindstrom in with earlier Giant and Cardinal players inducted during Frisch's tenure. The HOF Veterans Committee under Frisch also added players from the Phillies, Indians, Cubs, Boston Braves and Red Sox who are not counted among the croneys. Footnote 31 (Hardball Times, Richard Barbieri) does not mention Lindstrom. Footnotes 32 and 33 (Jay Jaffe, Baseball Prospectus)agrees he has no evidence of Frisch's involvement. Footnote 36 (Clark Booth Dorchester Times) says he wants more players elected, not fewer, and that Lindstrom was a good choice. How much does it take to right an obvious wrong? 74.248.35.47 (talk) 19:58, 25 October 2012 (UTC)

Hi Muboshgu. Could I trouble you to find who established the trophy. The websites I visited only mention when it was created and who votes for the winner.

Reason for the mess on additions to Legacy: I kept screwing up the footnotes back slash. Could you point out where further verifications are needed. Thanks. And thanks for the Dick Young piece. I hope you noticed, though, that Young trashes all 12 members of the "Old Croney Committee," not just Frisch or Terry. As president of the BBWA at the time (1976), he was an outspoken opponent of the committee for diluting the writers' right to name HOF members. They, in turn, came about because the BBWA was so slow to add new entrants. After all, the annual gathering at Cooperstown needed someone to showcase, and 75 percent of the BBWA was about as likely as our present U.S. House of Representatives approving Obamacare. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.248.43.197 (talk) 22:37, 27 October 2012 (UTC)

The 2012 WikiCup has come to a close; congratulations to Cwmhiraeth (submissions), our 2012 champion! Cwmhiraeth joins our exclusive club of previous winners: Dreamafter (2007), jj137 (2008), Durova (2009), Sturmvogel 66 (2010) and Hurricanehink (2011). Our final standings were as follows:
Prizes for first, second, third and fourth will be awarded, as will prizes for all those who reached the final eight. Every participant who scored in the competition will receive a ribbon of participation. In addition to the prizes based on placement, the following special prizes will be awarded based on high performance in particular areas of content creation. So that the finalists do not have an undue advantage, the prize is awarded to the competitor who scored the highest in any particular field in a single round.
Awards will be handed out in the coming days; please bear with us! This year's competition also saw fantastic contributions in all rounds, from newer Wikipedians contributing their first good or featured articles, right up to highly experienced Wikipedians chasing high scores and contributing to topics outside of their usual comfort zones. It would be impossible to name all of the participants who have achieved things to be proud of, but well done to all of you, and thanks! Wikipedia has certainly benefited from the work of this year's WikiCup participants.
Next year's WikiCup will begin in January. Currently, discussions and polls are open, and all contributions are welcome. You can also sign up for next year's competition. There will be no further newsletters this year, although brief notes may be sent out in December to remind everyone about the upcoming competition. It's been a pleasure to work with you all, and we hope to see you all in January! J Milburn (talk • email) and The ed17 (talk • email) 00:34, 1 November 2012 (UTC)
