Just Beginning[edit]

Just started this, I will be editing through the week Superbowlbound (talk) 05:10, 24 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Excellent start. The article looks great so far. I've been planning on getting this started so I'm glad someone else did. JohnnyPolo24 (talk) 13:19, 2 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I know for a fact that Blair is not the youngest of 4 children. He has a brother who is younger than him (Redbluegold (talk) 17:58, 26 June 2009 (UTC))[reply]

Also, the article says his nationality is Canadian. I do not think that this is correct. (Redbluegold (talk) 17:59, 26 June 2009 (UTC))[reply]

Article rating[edit]

I bumped it up to a B-Class article. I feel the only thing missing is a picture, which may take time. Anyways to get it to a GA we need to add some more info, and a few more sources. Also a picture is definitely needed. Superbowlbound (talk) 18:33, 2 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Feature in the Post-Gazette[edit]

External links modified[edit]

Hello fellow Wikipedians,

I have just added archive links to one external link on DeJuan Blair. Please take a moment to review my edit. You may add {{cbignore}} after the link to keep me from modifying it, if I keep adding bad data, but formatting bugs should be reported instead. Alternatively, you can add {{nobots|deny=InternetArchiveBot}} to keep me off the page altogether, but should be used as a last resort. I made the following changes:
