[edit] Questions that Wikipedia readers want anwered

I heard that Terrell's brother once assaulted a pregnant woman, and as a result she lost the baby. Is there any truth to this?

Yes, it's true. It happened in 1993 in San Diego. Terrell actually talks about it in his book, "TD: Dreams in Motion". (Viewport 17:35, 28 February 2007 (UTC))

[edit] Other discussion

Regarding these two additions, I think it would be better to stick to the facts and not opinions and speculation. Maybe compare Davis’ career with the first four years of Hall of Famers’ careers, and let readers draw their own conclusions. —Fleminra 02:55, 4 November 2005 (UTC)

As per Wikipedia:Cite sources and Wikipedia:Neutral point of view, such opinions and speculation should be removed. Zzyzx11 (Talk) 02:59, 4 November 2005 (UTC)

With regards to mentioning Ricky Watters in referencing Davis' Pro Football HOF nomination, citation is needed. Specifically, there are lists I have found that contradict this statement and do not include his name anywhere, e.g.:

http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/news?slug=ap-famesemifinalistslist&prov=ap&type=lgns

Perhaps they were talking about the "preliminary" nominations? These are nowhere near a final list or ballot, at any rate it needs to be removed or revised for accuracy with a reference. See Ricky Watters discussion page where question was originally posed.

[edit] TD: Dreams in Motion

Everybody, please note, I added the "Early Life" & "College" sections with information giving by Terrell Davis' own autobiography "TD: Dreams in Motion". I have no idea how to reference that in the reference section, but all that info is true, per his own words. (Viewport 22:30, 1 March 2007 (UTC))

[edit] Class of article in project templates

GA status must be done via a requested review at Wikipedia:Good article candidates per the instructions on that page. You can't rate an article as GA if you have done a good bit of editing to the article yourself, and GA reviews must include on the talk page which good article criteria have or have not been met. --Roswell native 18:38, 9 March 2007 (UTC)

Therefore, I have removed the WPBiography class and I have reverted the GeorgiaUS status back to "Start" class - although this might have enough info to be a "B" class article, it really needs to use some inline refs to be a "B" in my mind for GeorgiaUS.
