Please do not change his article to say he "will be" a free agent until he actually becomes one. Right now he's a member of the Bears and the article should reflect that. Eagles 24/7 (C) 01:04, 9 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hey there Zappa,

I ended up archiving my entire talk, but I did respond here. Not sure how much I'll be around after finishing up a few things over the next few days, but I will try to help with the list. Cheers.

Userpage

Hi Justin,

It's a good idea not to give away too much personal information about yourself. I've just removed a few items on your user page which I hope you won't mind.

Do take a moment to read this guide. Do feel free to ask me if you have any questions.

- Happy editing, Mailer Diablo 13:18, 2 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, I guess I got carried away. ZappaOMati 14:05, 2 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you!

For creating concussions in American football, an article I requested. It's a very important subject and you have gotten off to a fine start with it. --Jprg1966 (talk) 17:51, 26 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Concussions in sports - all about America, but presented as if it's about the whole world

Please be aware that Wikipedia is a global encyclopaedia, read by people all over the world. Your efforts on Concussions in sports, and your sources, are almost exclusively about the USA (with a tiny inclusion of Canada because of the nature of ice hockey). If that's the extent of your knowledge, that can be OK (although I would encourage you to look more broadly). Perhaps we can hope that editors from other countries will add content about their sports so that the article becomes more correctly designed to be about the whole world.

But I encourage to try to write your content with some mention of the fact that it's all about America, and not the whole world.

I'll try, unless I manage to find a reference from another country. ZappaOMati 23:26, 3 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Missed my point. Yes, when I have time to put something together I can add content about other parts of the world, but when I do I will highlight what country I'm talking about, and find unambiguous sources. You haven't done so. And your sources are often unclear on it. For example, the source for your recent addition on boxing doesn't make it clear whether the 659 deaths were for the whole world, or just for America (which would be my guess). In a global encyclopaedia, this matters. HiLo48 (talk) 23:36, 3 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I'll put in the country for the ones that I can find. ZappaOMati 23:39, 3 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
