Hi there! You have a custom signature set in your account preferences. ] have made your current custom signature invalid.

Ray "Boom Boom" Mancini is possibly one of the nicest guys you'll ever meet, but just don't back him in a corner. This gentle guy once killed a man in the boxing ring. He was so broken up about it, he retired from boxing. I dedicate his portrait to you. --<font color="navy" size="2">David</font> ''']''' 19:10, 30 December 2008 (UTC)


'''The problem:''' Your signature contains a syntax error or obsolete HTML tags.
:I would go more for ], who was captured on camera standing over a ] player who had literally died on the field. Butkus didn't actually kill the guy, it was heart failure. But I recall something Butkus once said: "I would never hurt anyone. Unless it was something important, like a National Football League game." ] <sup>'']''</sup> 19:15, 30 December 2008 (UTC)
::In fact Butkus was actually signalling for help, for the fallen player, ], at that game in 1971. This year, of course, the entire team metaphorically did a Chuck Hughes. ] <sup>'']''</sup> 19:19, 30 December 2008 (UTC)
:::Do you think it would be too trivial to have an article on famous sports deaths? --<font color="navy" size="2">David</font> ''']''' 19:21, 30 December 2008 (UTC)
::::I don't know about an article, but certainly there's room for a category. "Famous sports deaths" is a little broad. How about athletes who died during the season, on or off the field. I'm thinking of Reds catcher ], for example, who committed suicide during the 1940 season, the only recorded mid-season suicide; or ], Angels, 1978, the only recorded murder of a ballplayer during the season; or the most obvious, ], Indians, who died after being hit in the head by a ] pitch in 1920. ] <sup>'']''</sup> 19:31, 30 December 2008 (UTC)
::::: This is begging for a category! You'd have to be the one to do it. Two subjects I can't contribute anything to are sports and math, and I even thought it was dicey when I interviewed ], the "Mets Poet". Although I do get ] fever, but I don't think that counts. --<font color="navy" size="2">David</font> ''']''' 19:36, 30 December 2008 (UTC)
::::::Turns out there is already a similar category, "Deaths among active Major League Baseball players", which Bostock, Hershberger, Chapman, and a bunch of others already appear. They apparently took the approach of "not yet retired", so for example ] and ] are on the list. However, there is no similar category for football players (or if there is, Hughes is not on it). In the case of boxing, there have been (not surprisingly) a number of deaths resulting from matches, including Mancini's victim, ], who is in the category "Deaths due to injuries sustained in boxing". ] <sup>'']''</sup> 19:42, 30 December 2008 (UTC)

==The Used Page==
Hi, you seem to have helped me since I joined here. There is a user 'Landon1980' that keeps removing information from the used page. If I revert it, they change it back. All this information is properly sourced and accurate and I try telling them that but they do not listen. What could we do about this because I think that they are vandalizing the page by not allowing updated information on it. Thanks.

Custom signature fix needed

Hi there! You have a custom signature set in your account preferences. Changes to Misplaced Pages's software have made your current custom signature invalid.

The problem: Your signature contains a syntax error or obsolete HTML tags.

The solutions: You can reset your signature to the default, you can fix your signature, or you can do nothing.

Solution 1: Reset your signature to the default:

  1. Find the signature section in the first tab of Special:Preferences.
  2. Uncheck the box (☑︎→☐) that says "Treat the above as wiki markup."
  3. Remove anything in the Signature: text box.
  4. Click the blue "Save" button at the bottom of the page. (Do not click the red "Restore all default settings" button, which will reset all of your preference settings, not just the signature.)

Solution 2: Fix your custom signature:

  1. Find the signature section in the first tab of Special:Preferences.
  2. Click the Learn more button next to the error to learn how to fix the error.
  3. Update your signature to fix the error.
  4. Click Save to update to your newly fixed signature.

Solution 3: Do nothing:

  1. In accordance with a recent request for comment, all invalid signatures will be changed to the default, which looks like "Example (talk)", one month from now.

If you have followed these instructions and still want help, please leave a message at Misplaced Pages talk:Signatures. Thank you! MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 06:05, 2 February 2024 (UTC)
