Project-wide naming conventions re History section

@MHS1976:

There is ongoing WP:DE of this article, including removal of an established, project-wide naming convention. Specifically, Misplaced Pages:WikiProject College football has created a general format for ~300 CFB team articles (Alabama Crimson Tide football, Akron Zips football, etc), inclusive of a "History" section with multiple "Coach Name era (19YY–19YY)" type subsections. As repeatedly noted, this naming convention can be observed on team articles such as linked at List of NCAA Division I FBS football programs.

In this specific article, the comprehensive use of "XYZ era" subsections is stable to 2014 and even earlier when the History section was smaller/contained fewer subsections. Changes to this established structure have been flagged with both DE and MOS:HEAD issues.

As such, I have both initiated this Talk (as your issues have project-wide relevance beyond this specific article) and reverted to the stable convention, pending further discussion of your concerns, here. To the extent there is a grammar issue(?), that would have project-wide implications rather than merely local to this specific article. What do you think? UW Dawgs (talk) 20:25, 25 June 2018 (UTC)

No excuse for using poor English. Thanks! — Preceding unsigned comment added by MHS1976 (talkcontribs) 18:30, 5 July 2018 (UTC)
