BRFA overlapping WikiProjects Basketball & College basketball

Adrien Nunez was not a notable basketball player by conventional metrics, but he was one of the highest NIL earners in the first year of NIL. He now has 6.5 million TikTok followers. I am working on a draft of his page and want to get advice on proper formatting of two infoboxes and understand if there is a way to get his stats in the infobox (61 points in 62 games).-TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 07:56, 28 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I embeded the hoops ibx, similar to how you already did the music one. Otherwise, multiple dangling ibxs alwasy seem tacky. —Bagumba (talk) 08:24, 28 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Juwan Howard main image

[edit]

I added an image to the Michigan coaching section of the article. Since it is my own image, I will leave it to others whether to swap it with the current main image.-TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 05:15, 29 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Conference tournament in schedule?

[edit]

For some conferences only a limited number of teams compete in the conference tournament (Ivy League 4 of 8, Big Ten & ACC 15 of 18). Should we include the conference tournament in the schedule now if it is not a guaranteed game? See 2024–25_Wisconsin_Badgers_men's_basketball_team#Schedule_and_results and 2024–25_Oregon_Ducks_men's_basketball_team#Schedule_and_results where it is included vs. 2024–25_Michigan_Wolverines_men's_basketball_team#Schedule_and_results and 2024–25_Princeton_Tigers_men's_basketball_team#Schedule_and_results.--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 07:04, 2 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Probably not a big deal to leave it in, and only remove it once it's official that the team doesn't qualify. Since we know that 50% of Ivy teams make it and 83% of ACC and Big Ten teams do, I feel like it makes more sense to delete just three teams' rows once it's official as opposed to deleting all 18 and re-adding 15 later on.

Are there other DI conferences where this is an issue? P.S. I am still scratching my head as to why 16th out of 16 gets a tournament bid in the SEC and Big 12, but 16th out of 18 does not in the B1G and ACC.-TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 04:37, 3 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not sure honestly. Each conference's autonomy can lead to funky scheduling, I suppose. SportsGuy789 (talk) 17:05, 3 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

inclusion of insignificant players

[edit]

Many team pages (for example, 2015–16 McNeese State Cowgirls basketball team) list a score of player names, none of which were significant and still remain insignificant. Do we really need to list them all and all their heights and high schools? Is that really encyclopedic? Kingturtle = (talk) 21:06, 16 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

if a team season article exists, then yes rosters should exist with roster information. The only issue is if people starting creating articles of non-notable players. The make-up of the team is an important fact for a team season article. Rikster2 (talk) 21:25, 16 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
