			== Birthplaces of Brian Viloria and Bob Foster ==

			Radam, you state that [[Brian Viloria]] was born in Cebu, Philippines on [[Talk:Brian Viloria\|his talk page]] whereas BoxRec and the [[wikipedia:Brian Viloria\|main wikipedia article about him]] say it was Honolulu, Hawaii, USA.

			You also state that [[Bob Foster]] was born in Lubbock, Texas on [[Talk:Bob Foster\|his talk page]] whereas the [[wikipedia:Bob Foster\|main wikipedia article about him]] says it was Albuquerque, New Mexico, USA.

			Can you provide any sources to support your claims so that possibly false statements can be corrected?--[[User:Emaster\|Emaster]] 21:02, 14 September 2009 (UTC)

	I see that you often make what seems like dozens of edits on the same page daily. In one edit, you changed the word "boxer" in the boxer code to something else, saved your edit, saw that it was the wrong thing to do, then switched it back to "boxer." Thus, it appears to me that you do not know about the "Show preview" button at the bottom of each edit window. It appears that you may just click the "save page" button instead after every little edit you make--thereby making a saved edit almost every other minute. But the preview button allows you to see what a proposed edit looks like before it actually gets saved into the database. Perhaps you should consider using that button more often than you are doing. --[[User:Ric\|Ric]] 22:17, 12 September 2007 (CDT)		I see that you often make what seems like dozens of edits on the same page daily.

			== Insert Boxer Code ==

			When creating a boxer page, remember to insert the "boxer code" at the very top of the page. The boxer code is the number that you can see at the top of any boxer's page, assuming you created the page coming from the BoxRec database. Put that number between tags, like this: <nowiki><boxer>12345</boxer></nowiki><br>

			Great contributions! Remember, however, when creating a boxer page, to insert the "boxer code" at the very top. The boxer code is the number (which you can see at the top of any boxer's page, assuming you created the page coming from the BoxRec database), such as Human:255431. Put that number between tags, like this: <nowiki><boxer>255431</boxer></nowiki><br>

			The boxer code will automatically insert the name, and all the other stats, from the BoxRec database. However, you have to manually enter the names of managers and trainers. Try it on the [[Human:255431\|Greg Adams]] page you just edited.
