When you do get there

Congrats on 300K! Just in case I'm asleep when it happens. :/ Regards, John. Bringingthewood (talk) 01:01, 9 November 2024 (UTC)

Thanks! I think it already happened though. If you click my contributions and scroll down to edit count, it says 301,871. I see you hit 60K recently, ever closer to that elusive 100K. ~WikiOriginal-9~ (talk) 01:13, 9 November 2024 (UTC)

You're welcome and congrats anyway for the one you didn't reach that I looked at, lol. Yeah, but it will take a little while. I slowed down some, being that I make everything a job. P.S. Thanks again for doing a couple of edits tonight that I hesitated doing. One was removing (USFL). I thought leagues didn't really belong in that box. The other was Greg Reid, I thought I might screw up the photo positioning with that one. I had to laugh, HA, when I saw you did them both. Bringingthewood (talk) 02:22, 9 November 2024 (UTC)

Lol lol ~WikiOriginal-9~ (talk) 02:30, 9 November 2024 (UTC)

See you later and enjoy your weekend! John. Bringingthewood (talk) 02:39, 9 November 2024 (UTC)

Thanks for the free agent 'thank you', I didn't want to steal your edits. It took me twenty minutes and my IP address to figure out how you did that edit summary, lol. I left the slanted look for your edits .. you did it first. :) John. Bringingthewood (talk) 01:39, 12 November 2024 (UTC)

Oh well, it's slanted also .. it was the thought that counts.  ;) Bringingthewood (talk) 01:42, 12 November 2024 (UTC)

Loll, thanks. Don't worry about stealing my edits, there are plenty to go around. What do you mean by slanted? ~WikiOriginal-9~ (talk) 01:44, 12 November 2024 (UTC)

I didn't realize the edit summary has a slanted link look: free agent discussion. I thought it might have a straight up look on mine. I think the summaries do that automatically. Bringingthewood (talk) 01:50, 12 November 2024 (UTC)

Yes, it's automatic. I never really thought about it before but it looks like the entire edit summary is slanted, not just links. ~WikiOriginal-9~ (talk) 01:54, 12 November 2024 (UTC)

Hmm, good to know. How in the hell I remembered to do the slant just now is beyond me. Thanks again, and always remember, the only two sure things in this world: Death and me not reaching 300K. John. Bringingthewood (talk) 02:00, 12 November 2024 (UTC)

lol ~WikiOriginal-9~ (talk) 02:01, 12 November 2024 (UTC)

Almost forgot .. congrats on your 300K .. AGAIN! For the one I see. @@. I'll go away now. Bringingthewood (talk) 02:04, 12 November 2024 (UTC)

Now I can ask. Parnell Motley was left (American football) in the lead. Should I avoid putting gridiron for players who have an asterisk next to CFL teams in the infobox?. Not sure if they had to literally play a down in the CFL. Thanks, John. Bringingthewood (talk) 19:30, 19 November 2024 (UTC)

That was just an oversight, I meant to put gridiron there. Go ahead and do what you think is best. ~WikiOriginal-9~ (talk) 19:31, 19 November 2024 (UTC)

LOL, I was hoping you didn't say oversight. I was really trying to see the right way to do it. You seem to be leaning towards both asterisk or not. I hope that it's okay to leave Arena football as American. I see it's a gridiron variety. Still, it's whatever you believe is correct, I go with that. (HA, you changed it and I didn't even finish typing) Bringingthewood (talk) 19:41, 19 November 2024 (UTC)

I don't really mind either way (I thought gridiron is how you were going it, lol). I think I've done it both ways before though. If they didn't actually play in the CFL, we can just leave it as American if you want, I'm not going to go around changing that part. I was mainly just fixing "former American" and "free agent". And yes, arena football is just considered American on here. ~WikiOriginal-9~ (talk) 19:46, 19 November 2024 (UTC)

Fantastic, I'm not changing things either. I do agree, leave it as American unless they actually played in the CFL. That box on the left where it breaks down professional career teams made me wonder a bit. Seems like some really tried to go gridiron, lol. Thank God with arena being American. Well, you've done your duty for today .. I thank you. Enjoy your week! John. Bringingthewood (talk) 20:04, 19 November 2024 (UTC)
