What to do
You can always go to previous drafts and make pages for the players. I'd focus on the less recent drafts (1947-1995) as they need more attention than the recent ones. CHRIS 17:07, 30 April 2010 (EDT)CHRIS
RE: NBA Player Template
I think the second one looks better. CHRIS 12:37, 9 May 2010 (EDT)CHRIS
Some work that you can do
Hey Jdh87,
Since I know you are always up for a challenge, here's one. With the draft only 17 days away, I have been working to create pages for the candidates. I could really use some help with this. Some good sites you can use for information are:
http://www.nbadraft.net/2010mock_draft
http://www.nba.com/draft2010/prospects/archive/
Thanks again, CHRIS 07:45, 7 June 2010 (EDT)CHRIS
Jdh87;
Can you fix what Dunkalelic University did on June 23rd. I tried to go back to the history and set it right, but it did not allow me somehow to fix it in the history. Sorry about the screwup. Rdpruter.
Draft picks
Hey Jd, I can see that you have been working hard on correcting the teams the draft picks are on. But please do not do it until they have been signed by the teams. For example, Wesley Johnson has not yet been signed by the Timbs. Therefore, he is not with the team yet.
Cheers, CHRIS 15:19, 26 June 2010 (EDT)CHRIS
Kevin Cook Template
Could you make a template for Kevin Cook?
Thanks, CHRIS 22:38, 1 July 2010 (EDT)CHRIS
RE:Deleted Image
There are always things to be done around here, but here are the biggest things that need to get done.
1.) Look up "forgotten about" players like Boštjan Nachbar, Jackson Vroman, Bernard Robinson, Viktor Khryapa, etc. and correct what teams they are currently playing for.
2.) Create pages for players. Places to look for players are NBA Drafts, Current rosters, etc.
3.) Keep clicking the "Random page" button and just look around for any errors.
Thanks, CHRIS 01:33, 15 July 2010 (EDT)CHRIS
Shaq
Shaq never signed with the Celtics. It was Jermaine O'Neal who is now a Celtic. CHRIS 15:06, 15 July 2010 (EDT)CHRIS
Lorenzen Wright
The only reason I reverted your edits on the Lorenzen Wright page was because he was not confirmed deceased yet. They found a body, but cannot confirm it is Wright's. I know you are eager to add the latest information onto Hoopedia, so I just wanted to let you know. Keep up the great work! CHRIS 16:15, 29 July 2010 (EDT)CHRIS
Templates
Jd-
The reason I reverted the edits you made on the Heading page was so the gap between the article and the template could be removed.
I just wanted to let you know. CHRIS 15:57, 22 August 2010 (EDT)CHRIS
RE:Pétur Guðmundsson
Thanks, it's perfect. CHRIS 09:34, 25 August 2010 (EDT)CHRIS
Deletion of user pages
We cannot delete other people's user pages. That is their own page in which they can write what ever they please.
Thanks anyways, CHRIS 03:37, 2 October 2010 (EDT)CHRIS
RE: NBA Teams Project
Sounds great! If you can make a template for the teams entire roster that would be great. CHRIS 06:20, 1 November 2010 (EDT)CHRIS
Main page edit
Jon: Can you make changes on the main page. I can't seem to do it. The change I would like you to make is to change the date of the first national AAU tournament from 1897 to 1898. There is no basis for the 1897 date, other than the AAU has always used it. RDpruter

Response
I've used the Heading template ex:Lamar Heard, but didn't know of this one. Thanks for pointing it out. Don't you sometimes contribute to NBA wikia? I think I remember your username from thereHockeyben 23:03, 27 March 2011 (EDT)
Yep, i thought I recognized the name. I'm probably going to edit here instead of NBA wikia, considering there is much more content here.Hockeyben 23:06, 27 March 2011 (EDT)
Miami Heat roster
I think the Miami Heat roster is outdated. --Silver Knight 10:13, 28 March 2011 (EDT)
Favicon
How come the favicon.ico doesn't work? I tried to upload and it says ico not allowed or something. --Silver Knight 11:50, 28 March 2011 (EDT)
hoopedia pl
Hi. I have a question. Can you do hoopedie Polish? I am a former editor of the wikipedia.

- What is the difference between this and Wikipedia
American Basketball Players
Jon: Do you REALLY want to go down that road and create a hugely broad new category? I recommend that you not do that. A few years ago, Chris thought up a new category, the overly broad Defunct basketball teams, and Hoosier rightly dissuaded him from continuing with it. Rdpruter
Hey
My name is Awesome335. I am a new user here, and I noticed a problem with this website. Reggie Miller is featured on both the September 25th page and the February 29th page as the date of his birth, when he was ACTUALLY born on August 24. 1965. As these pages are protected, can you please edit this?
Thanks!

Suggestion
Shouldn't we add "something about Wayman Tisdale on the May 15 page, because that was the day of his death?

RE:Project
Sorry for the late reply. What is the project you started? Im interested in helping. --Hockeyben 19:23, 26 May 2011 (EDT)
IP
Hey. I am unable to access hoopedia via hoopedia.NBA.com, it just redirects me to NBA.com main page. I am only able to access it via the 157.166.250.30 ip address. Is it the same for you?Hockeyben 00:38, 20 July 2011 (EDT)
How? Contact them on their talk pages? Do you know what's causing the site to display this way?Hockeyben 00:41, 20 July 2011 (EDT)
Hmm... At least it's not only me getting this display. How do we notify other users?
Talk pages would probably be best. Some users have a feature that emails them one someone leaves a msg. -HB
RE:Category:Detroit Pistons draft picks deletion
I deleted it because the category:Detroit Pistons is supposed to include all players, coaches, and draft picks. CHRIS 14:25, 25 August 2011 (EDT)CHRIS
RE: Birth date and age template
I am honestly not sure how to fix this. Unfortunately, I am not sure of anyone that can help with this considering the lockout has yet to be lifted. CHRIS 06:14, 15 November 2011 (EST)CHRIS
Main Page Change
Jon, I noticed that you have Main Page access. Can you make an edit for me? You will see a bullet point "All Articles on African Americans and Basketball," which takes the user to Category: African Americans. I want to add a bullet point, following the bullet point, "Why are they So Good," for Jewish Americans; Something like All Articles on Jewish Americans and Basketball. which will take the user to the Category: Jewish Americans, which I had just created. Can you do that?
Thank you for continuing to contribute. You seem to be practically the only one. Chris does not seem to be around much anymore.
Best RDP
