Progress

In December 2024, I posted on your talk page about expanding all of my sports stubs: User_talk:Cbl62/Archive_2024#Stub_campaign. I have since expanded over 1,000 of my stubs. These 15 are the only sports bio stubs I have left. I saw you expanding some of your old stubs recently too. That's good work. ~WikiOriginal-9~ (talk) 15:36, 5 February 2026 (UTC)

• @WikiOriginal-9: Nice work on your part! I've still got a ways to go (User:Cbl62/Todolist), but I'm plugging away. Cbl62 (talk) 15:41, 5 February 2026 (UTC)

Bogle?

This is a question about something you did over 14 years ago, so I won't be at all surprised if your answer is "I've no idea", but if you can answer I'll be interested. In December 2011 you created the article Theodore M. Stuart. At one point in the article you referred to Stuart as "Bogle", as you can see at Special:PermanentLink/465140725, the original version of the article. Can you say what that was about? JBW (talk) 12:49, 8 February 2026 (UTC)

It remained in the article for 14 years. My searches have failed to find any connection between Theodore Stuart & "Bogle". JBW (talk) 12:52, 8 February 2026 (UTC)

• @JBW: This edit dates from a time when I was working on the early years of the Michigan football program. I started an article on Thomas A. Bogle Jr. one day before starting the Stuart article and apparently still had Bogle on my mind. I apologize for the mind-bogle-ing error. Cbl62 (talk) 15:41, 8 February 2026 (UTC)

  Thanks for the explanation. When I first saw it I thought it was vandalism, but I checked who did it, and nothing about your editing history suggests a vandal, so I decided it was more likely some kind of mistake. What I find most mind-bogle-ing is the fact that it remained in a fairly prominent place in the article for such a long time. In the last five years alone there have been over 1,000 page views: there must be loads of people who saw it and did nothing about it. JBW (talk) 18:31, 8 February 2026 (UTC)

Help with rivalry pages

Hello. I’m currently going through NFL rivalry pages to check if they have strong sourcing to meet GNG standards. I’ve come across two pages, Broncos–Steelers rivalry and Rams–Saints rivalry, where I haven't been able to find good high-quality sources after doing some google searches. However, I haven’t checked Newspaper.com, and I don’t have an account there. I know that you do, so if and when you have time, would you be willing to check Newspaper.com for any useful sources regarding those pages? I would really appreciate it. Thank you!

Proposed deletion of Kitty Wells' & Red Foley's Golden Favorites

The article Kitty Wells' & Red Foley's Golden Favorites has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Non-notable compilation, tagged for notability since 2020. Billboard source is only a passing mention, no SIGCOV found in a WP:BEFORE.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion based on established criteria.

If the proposed deletion has already been carried out, you may request undeletion of the article at any time. Ten Pound Hammer (they/them) • ^{(What did I screw up now?)} 16:03, 22 June 2026 (UTC)

Cleophus Cooksey Jr.

Hey there, just seeking clarification on this rollback with remark "..if nom still believes deletion appropriate, AfD is available". My original intention was to nominate for AfD, so I'm wondering if you meant that I shouldn't submit for AfD or if you meant something else by the remark. I followed the same steps as I did with this one, but I'm pretty new to the whole process and the easiest explanation is I messed something up. Just seeking clarification on the reason for reversion before nominating it again. Sesamehoneytart 03:49, 6 July 2026 (UTC)

• @Sesamehoneytart: I simply noticed that there was quite a bit of coverage about this serial killer, such that a speedy delete was inappropriate IMO. If you still believe deletion is appropriate, that would be better evaluated through the former AfD process. Cbl62 (talk) 03:54, 6 July 2026 (UTC)

  What I'm saying is that I didn't intend to nominate it for speedy deletion in the first place. Or if I did, it wasn't on purpose. Just want to verify it's okay to nominate it again for the same reason I did the first time around, and I'm only asking because I'll be going through the same process that ended in reversion and I really don't want to end up in an edit war. // Side note that I'll bring up in the deletion nomination (if it's okay to resend it) is that the article does have a large number of references on the page itself, but if you actually visit and read those references, it appears to be a product of churnalism; All stating the same facts without additional commentary, all referencing the same police statements, same facts and figures, etc. Sesamehoneytart 04:14, 6 July 2026 (UTC)

  Disregard, I think I found where I messed up. Sorry for the confusion and thanks for the quick responses Sesamehoneytart 17:24, 6 July 2026 (UTC)
