   Pass/Fail:

• Lead might need expanded a little.
  • Expanded a bit.
• change "former American" to something else.
  • Changed.
• Jersey number needs a ref.
  • Added.
• New high school infobox formatting.
  • Done.
• Full name in body with ref.
  • Done.
• Added cats: Coaches of American football from Colorado, American football punters, American football placekickers, Colorado State Rams men's basketball players, Colorado State Rams baseball players, Basketball players from Colorado, Baseball players from Colorado, Baseball shortstops
• link football, basketball, and track in early life
  • Done.
• "He enrolled at the Colorado State College of Agriculture and Mechanic Arts (now known as Colorado State University) – Colorado A&M" shouldn't the Colorado State parentheses go after Colorado A&M.
  • Done.
• Change Colorado State in infobox to A&M.
  • Done.
• "he called "the region's best passer" was named an honorable mention all-conference selection at the end of the year." Change to "he was called "the region's best passer" and named an honorable mention all-conference selection at the end of the year."
  • Done.
• link golf and tennis on first instance
  • Done.
• "Hainlen was selected in the 19th round (188th overall) of the 1949 NFL draft by the Washington Redskins" change to "Hainlen was selected by the Washington Redskins in the 19th round, with the 188th overall pick, of the 1949 NFL draft."
  • Done.
• link NFL training camp.
  • Done.
• Why does it say Redskins 1950 in the infobox?
  • Removed it – although there should be probably a discussion at some point on whether it is appropriate to include the years when the players were there in the offseason (e.g. currently, if someone was signed in e.g. May 1950 then released in June 1950, we'd list them as '1950' in the infobox, but if they were there in 1949 as well we'd list just '1949', which seems a bit odd imo).
    • The infobox years get really cluttered if you do it like. If you went to Josh Johnson's page and did that, the infobox would look a little silly and be less informative. Most NFL players get cut in camp the next year. There would be very few one-year infobox spans if we did it like that. Yankees10 removes them too.
• Anything on later life? He's almost 100 years old, there's might be something.
  • I don't remember finding any other coverage on his later life.
    • Fair enough. ~WikiOriginal-9~ (talk) 18:21, 27 October 2024 (UTC)
