Cleanup

  • Information could be more organized --Nonsensical 01:23, 8 July 2007 (EDT)
  • Needs citations --Nonsensical 01:23, 8 July 2007 (EDT)
  • Lots of uncertain information should be verified before going into the article, remove all the blanks and question marks. It'd be best if the unverified stuff could be moved onto the talk page until it can be confirmed/verified somewhere. --Nonsensical 01:23, 8 July 2007 (EDT)
    • I feel like a lot of what's here either can't or won't be verified any time soon. Better just to add a disclaimer to the top than to banish most of the contents to the talk page. Pacman 17:33, 8 July 2007 (EDT)
  • This raises a point that might be relevant to several pages at wikicu, namely: people who are current students might be recruited/encouraged to help cleanup pages relevant to their own groups. Does anyone want to be in charge of contacting these people and alerting them to the existence of such a page and the opportunity to contribute? Foobar 18:22, 8 July 2007 (EDT)
    • And does anyone think this appropriate or inappropriate? Foobar 18:22, 8 July 2007 (EDT)
      • I was thinking exactly this, since this is how I got fooled into becoming a contributor on this crazy site. I think we could recruit a lot of people if we start sending out e-mails to group leaders in August, when they're preparing to fight for incoming freshmen to join their group. The great thing about doing it all at once is that lots of activity will spur on more activity. I'd be happy to be in charge of contacting people in August. I don't think it's inappropriate at all. It's a free service to students to benefit nobody but Columbians and I feel like a lot of groups will be happy to be on board. --Nonsensical 18:27, 8 July 2007 (EDT)
      • I think it's appropriate, and I'll definitely participate in sending out emails. I also intend to put up lots of flyers.  − Reaganaut  19:24, 8 July 2007 (EDT)
  • This is Steve Kane (skanelaw), CC '80. As I & the other "old timer" Ultimate players are not particularly adept at this wiki thing, I put up the site & asked 20 players from the late 70s & early 80s to edit away. That is why I put in [confirm] & blanks, hoping that someone with a better memeory than me would revise/correct (which several did). I thought this is what wikis were designed to do. However, if we have broken any wiki rules or etiquette, sorry. Later this week I intend to go through my files & get scores & season results & rosters onto the wikicu entry. There are also a few Spec articles (maybe 10), I would like to try to upload. If any of this is problematic, let me know. Thanks for all your hard work.
