[edit] edditing mistakes
On Your edits of nfl players who have been released you are putting that they played for a team until 2007 but really they didnt play for the team in 2007. For example with the Eric Moulds you put he played for the Texans from 2006-2007 but he only played one season for the Texans and that was 2006. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Bucs10 (talk • contribs) 00:05, 1 March 2007 (UTC).

[edit] 2007 NFL Draft
While I don't have a direct quote, comparing the first two rounds of the official draft order (Round 1 and Round 2), you see that (for example), St. Louis drafts 13th in the first round, and 20th in the second round. Same goes for the rest of the teams, too. Hope that helps! If you have any questions, please contact me at my talk page. Ian Manka 11:09, 2 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Your edits on 2007 Cleveland Browns season
I'd like to ask you as politely as possible why you made the changes you did in the article 2007 Cleveland Browns season. Not only are none of your changes sourced, but you completely changed the format of several of the sections. There really was no reason to make the changes you made at all, as you did nothing to improve the article whatsoever. I don't see why, as a new user, you felt the need to go into an article and make the changes you made, when there was no need to make them in the first place. I'll keep your free agent table in there; other than that, I'm reverting your edits, because they make the article extremely messy, and it's not organized at all. (And once again, nothing is sourced.) So I hope you'll understand why I'm reverting your edits and won't resort to an edit war with me, as I've been keeping track of the updates to the article. If that happens, I'll have an admin lock it. Thanks. Wlmaltby3 01:45, 12 March 2007 (UTC)
- Also, I'd like to point out that I can't find the signing of Brian Russell anywhere. It's not on NFL.com, the Seahawks' website or even the Browns website. So I think you may have gotten a player confused. Wlmaltby3 01:48, 12 March 2007 (UTC)
- There's no reason you can't edit the article. But there should be a uniformity to all articles, and your edits didn't have uniformity. Do you know what I'm trying to get at? It's not that they weren't good edits; they just weren't thought out well enough to have implemented them that fast. (Especially completely changing someone else's edits that didn't need to be changed in the first place.) That's why I kept your basic idea but left them in the previous format. No harm, no foul. I might've come off harsh, but the main reason was because I was mad about Brian Russell being signed by the 'Hawks, and yet I couldn't find any sources at all. Stupid, I know, but then again, I'm known to be jumpy. Wlmaltby3 14:18, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
