Talk:Brian de la Puente

Untitled

Deletion Proposed

Fails Wikipedia notability criteria for American football; has never played in an actual game. A clear-cut candidate for deletion.Mwinog2777 (talk) 22:43, 3 October 2010 (UTC)

Notability De la Puente played in all 16 NFL games for all 3 seasons from 2011 through 2013, and should no longer be marked for deletion.Dreslough (talk) 21:03, 7 April 2014 (UTC)

Deletion of year ranges from section headings

As my colleague editor has deleted (twice, so I thought I would open up discussion) the year ranges from section headings in this article, I've opened the question of whether it is imperative to delete such year ranges here.--Epeefleche (talk) 20:38, 8 April 2014 (UTC)

I'm not aware of any specific guidance in MOS on this, but I think the inclusion of date ranges in headings such as these is fine. It helps to follow the chronology of event and is a commonly used device. For example:

• American Broadcasting Company#History
• Triple J#History
• Steven Spielberg#Career
• China#History

Repeating what I wrote at WT:MOS, I don't have a strong opinion one way or the other about whether the dates should be included in the headers as well as in the text, but I do question the necessity to have so many sections here. De la Puente was on many different team rosters, but usually on the practice squad, and he never played in a game until he got to the Saints. (Then he improbably ended up as a highly-rated starter on the top-rated offensive line in the league, which is what makes his story interesting.) I personally find the multiplicity of small sections distracting; I suggest consolidating everything before New Orleans into one "Early NFL career" section. --Arxiloxos (talk) 13:53, 9 April 2014 (UTC)
