	Your links to an Australian library really does us little good. Such as you just did in the [[Nat Fleischer]] page. It is one thing to name the source, but the library link is useless to the rest of us in the world who do not have access to that library. Why have you made these links? --[[User:Ric\|Ric]] 22:43, 26 October 2006 (CDT)		Your links to an Australian library really does us little good. Such as you just did in the [[Nat Fleischer]] page.

			hi Ric - I've been away from this for some time.

			I thought the library links through to the free service might be useful to someone - even if only to establish bibliographies of works about a boxer (I'm a librarian). If you click on the "get this item" links you can find out which libraries hold it but if you're not a member of those libraries, you can ask your library about getting it in on "interlibrary loan", or check out the other options offered to purchase online via bookshops etc. Sorry if this wasn't obvious...

			Cheers.

	~~Why~~ the ~~move of Griffo to Alberts? Wasn't he better known as "Young Griffo"?~~ --[[User:Ric\|Ric]] ~~21:46, 17 Aug 2005 (CDT)~~		Just the films. --[[User:Ric\|Ric]] 18:25, 21 Aug 2005 (CDT)

	~~Sorry, I'm new! Couldn't find him at all when I search on his real name.~~

	I completely disagree with listing Young Griffo as Albert Griffiths. This is an encyclopedia, he should be listed under the name that you would expect to find him listed under, in an encyclopedia. This is not consistent either, with what we have done with other older boxers, who often use pseudonyms.--[[User:Matt Tegen\|Matt Tegen]] 00:45, 18 ~~Aug 2005 (CDT)~~

	~~NLA~~: Also check out the [[Help:Contents\|Help]] page for how to insert "boxer codes." Then go back and see if you can "tweak" your new Bell page. The boxer code will insert most of what you have, except the manager/trainer info, ~~which you must insert manually. You might want to look at the text put in other boxer pages for how to format manager & trainer info/text on boxer pages. Have fun! --[[User:Ric\|Ric]]~~ 21~~:54, 17 Aug 2005 (CDT)~~

	~~== "reducing" links ==~~

	You might also consider reducing the "length" of your reference links. Most, if not all, of your links have many words within them. One way to make the link smaller is like I did with the ones in the Colin Bell [[Boxer:Colin Bell:040048\|page]]----[[User:Ric\|Ric]] 01:58, 18 Aug 2005 (CDT)
