Euroleague stat table

edit

Hi! Please, review your work and study more on how to present a valid information before hitting "save" button. Here are some of the notes when you import stats from the Euroleague.net website on wikipedia:

  • FG% - make a sum of 2PM and 3PM and then divide it by the sum of 2PA and 3PA. Then, you'll get true FG%;
  • Stay concentrated when imputing BPG (it is left of FPG);
  • Minutes per game - if in stats you see for example 14:51, that means 14 minutes and 51 seconds. You don't have 100 seconds in minute, so you need to divide seconds with 60, to get true decimal number for MPG;
  • If you see for example 13 PPG, add in table 13.0 PPG for better visual presentation;
  • Career PIR and MPG - One of the ways, count total minutes / PIR player had in every season and divide them by number of games player played in his career to get true career MPG and PIR respectively;

Thanks!--AirWolf talk 00:08, 6 October 2014 (UTC)Reply

Very nice work, you got it now, keep going. I really really aperciate your work. If you have some free extra time, please update Euroleague statistics for even more players.--AirWolf talk 11:00, 12 April 2015 (UTC)Reply

Thanks!

I just saw that you cropped one of my photos and created a specific photo of Murphy Holloway. That was very cool and pleasing to see! And then I saw that you write articles about players in our Israeli basketball league. Keep up!!! HaGamal 19:30, 2 January 2018 (UTC)Reply

  Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give Israeli Basketball Premier League Discovery of the Year a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into another page with a different name. This is known as a "cut-and-paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is legally required for attribution. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.

In most cases, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page (the tab may be hidden in a dropdown menu for you). This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Requests for history merge. Thank you.

Birthplaces

edit

Just a note, but RealGM.com and eurobasket.com are not reliable sources for birthplace for American basketball players. These sites take the “hometown” field of college biographies and use it as “birthplace.” Hometown isn’t birthplace, it’s just where the player lives at the time of the bio. As a result of this practice, these sites routinely get place of birth wrong and can’t be used. I deleted place of birth for Marquis Wright (basketball) for this reason. College bios often (but not always) list place of birth at the bottom (in a “personal” section). Other typically reliable sources are USABasketball.com and Basketball-reference.com if the player played in the NBA. Thanks. Rikster2 (talk) 15:13, 17 August 2018 (UTC)Reply

Hi, I'm RonBot, a script that checks new non-free file uploads. I have found that the subject image that you recently uploaded was more than 5% in excess of the Non-free content guideline size of 100,000 pixels. I have tagged the image for a standard reduction, which (for jpg/gif/png/svg files) normally happens within a day. Please check the reduced image, and make sure that the image is not excessively corrupted. Other files will be added to Category:Wikipedia non-free file size reduction requests for manual processing. There is a full seven-day period before the original oversized image will be hidden; during that time you might want to consider editing the original image yourself (perhaps an initial crop to allow a smaller reduction or none at all). A formula for calculation the desired size can be found at WP:Image resolution, along with instructions on how to tag the image in the rare cases that it requires an oversized image (typically about 0.2% of non-free uploads are tagged as necessarily oversized). Please contact the bot owner if you have any questions, or you can ask them at Wikipedia talk:Non-free content. RonBot (talk) 17:11, 25 August 2018 (UTC)Reply

Hi,

Nice talking to you.

Combo guard by definition is a guard that can also play in the shooting guard role no matter what's his size.

Due to the lack of shooting abilities of the subject in matter he cannot play this role but rather forced to alongside another point guard (with shooting abilities)[P. Stoll] due to "Israeli Law".

This is a minor edit but IMHO position and position definitions are important in having a clear understanding of the game of basketball.

Regards — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rpz79 (talkcontribs) 15:16, 13 February 2019 (UTC)Reply

Hi @Rpz79:, Sorry but I don't agree with that, shooting guard doesn't necessarily mean that they're the primary shooter/scorer. It's more of an "off-guard", where they play off the ball. Avery Bradley is a great example of that.

Hey, I opened up a project called Wikipedia:WikiProject Israeli Football You should join. There isn't a lot currently on the to-do list, once it's finished we can close the project and just keep the articles sustained with new info. Most of it is just translating from the Hebrew Wikipedia. IsraeliIdan (talk) 11:06, 20 April 2019 (UTC)Reply

Hi @Zvikorn:, Sorry but I'm more into basketball than football. Good luck with your project! :) Guy

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Maccabi Rishon LeZion (basketball), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Jonathan Williams (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Question about loaned players

edit

Since TLV loaned Sahar to hod hasharon why is he listed in the depth chart IsraeliIdan (talk)

Hi @Zvikorn:, how are you? Sahar was loaned to Hod Hasharon as a part of a two-way contract, He appears in Maccabi's roster here - http://maccabi.co.il/team.asp and here as well - http://basket.co.il/team.asp?TeamId=1000. Sahar was also listed in the last few games, just like the one they had today against Nes Ziona - http://www.fibalivestats.com/u/IBBA/1367054/bs.html.

I'm good thx for the answer, could you link me to a page that enplanes the two way contract in the Israeli leagues. (Preferably in English) thx IsraeliIdan (talk) 20:36, 20 October 2019 (UTC)Reply
Edit: Be sure to sing your post using four tildas (~) and when replying use a colon. IsraeliIdan (talk) 20:38, 20 October 2019 (UTC)Reply
Hi @Zvikorn:, Couldn't find any information about the two-way contracts (or the "Kartis Kaful") in English, but there's actually a Wikipedia article in Hebrew about this rule: https://he.wikipedia.org/wiki/הכרטיס_הכפול and the Israeli Basketball Association terms and conditions in the following PDF file. Basically, the rule allows teams from the Israeli Premier League to loan players (who are below 22 years old) to a lower divisions teams for player development purposes, while they can play and practice for both of the teams.

Israeli MVP question

edit

Hello! After I created Charles Minlend I took a look at the page Israeli Basketball Premier League MVP. The 1994–95 winner is cited as "Moran Mintz". I can't find anything on this guy. If I go on the basket.co.il website, and I look at every Israeli player who played that season, no Moran Mintz appears. I was only able to find this and it reads that this guy only played 4 games and averaged 2.2 points per game in 1994–95, which appears to be a bit underwhelming for an MVP winner... I can't understand what happened here. Is it a hoax? Maybe originating from the Wikipedia in Hebrew? Even if I google his name, the only results are wiki and that basket.co.il profile. Do you have any clue about this (sources that may help assessing if the information is correct or not, etc.)? Thank you in advance! --Triple 8~enwiki (talk) 03:05, 19 November 2019 (UTC)Reply

Hi Triple 8~enwiki, You're absolutely right. The MVP actually was Derrick Gervin (according to this website - http://safsal.co.il/?page_id=2085). I guess it was a typo in the Premier League official website (https://www.basket.co.il/awards.asp?cYear=1995&mode=) because Hanoch Mintz won the coach of the year award that season. Thanks for letting me know about that! --Guysela25 (talk) 08:27, 19 November 2019 (UTC)Reply

Hi - Would you have any sources on the Israeli career of Terry Fair? If so would you want to collaborate on an article for this recently-deceased player. This article says he played in Israel for a decade. Thanks. Rikster2 (talk) 21:26, 8 February 2020 (UTC)Reply

Hi Rikster2, How are you? I've created the page. I covered his college and Israeli League career. I couldn't find any information about his career from 1983 to 1985 unfortunately. Please let me know if you need anything else.--Guysela25 (talk) 14:02, 9 February 2020 (UTC)Reply

Greg Cook

edit

Hi, would you be able to verify whether this Greg Cook is the same mentioned in the Maccabi Haifa B.C. article as a player from 1982 to 1985? I see him appearing in boxscores on basket.co.il like this, but if I try to click on his profile an error message is shown. Do you have any way of verifying if it's the same guy? Thanks! --Triple 8~enwiki (talk) 12:15, 29 February 2020 (UTC)Reply
