Time to remove "personal perspective" template?

edit

Although the article could use more supporting links (and I will continue to work on those), I think that sufficient supported facts have been added to this page since 2012 that the "personal perspective" template at the top could be removed.

I weeded out some of the weaselness, but it still sort of reads as a puff-piece. If you can bring it back down to earth, it'd be much appreciated. Rgrds.-Bison X (talk) 22:27, 16 June 2022 (UTC)Reply
I tracked down support for a couple of the statements, including the box score for the game with Babe Ruth, and inserted them. I have ordered the book his SABR bio author referenced frequently, so I should be able to support some of the other statements within two weeks and will attempt to focus it more on his overall career and life and less on anecdotes.

Sounds like a plan. In other news, I noticed that the essay template (what you referred to as "personal perspective" template) was added in 2012 by a 64.85 dynamic IP. That was the dynamic IP I edited under for about 10 years before I created this account. So, what goes around comes around, I guess. Rgrds. --Bison X (talk) 20:11, 17 June 2022 (UTC)Reply
In case you drop by before I finish: I've done some work on the Playing Career section. I plan to move some of the Legacy material (with supporting endnotes) up to the Playing Career section, delete anything I can't find support for, and add a few facts regarding his post-playing life. Thoughts or comments welcome. Lhpeebles (talk) 18:20, 8 July 2022 (UTC)Reply
