List of Houston Rockets head coaches[edit]

It's pretty obvious why I put the list here, so I won't bore you with the details. Comment away. Noble Story (talk) 10:17, 19 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Comments- Overall looks good. Few small things. The template {{Houston Rockets}} would help the reader move to other Rockets articles. The back/fore ground color in the list of San Diego and Houston Rockets are hard to read. I do know if those are the official colors, but it would be helpful to find another shade of blue/red. Thats it for right now, PG Pirate 13:24, 20 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I've redone the colors and added the template. Noble Story (talk) 07:46, 21 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

~~Comments~~ Made some minor edits, hope it's fine. The only thing I see missing is the fact that Rudy T won two NBA Championships. It should be mentioned either in the lead or in the table.--Crzy cheetah 06:10, 22 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I did add the info about the championships. However, re-bolded the title, as I think it should be bolded. Noble Story (talk) 06:18, 22 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Support Looks good.--Crzy cheetah 09:30, 23 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Weak support. It looks good, but it's so short it could be merged into the main article. GreenJoe 00:03, 28 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Please see Wikipedia_talk:FLC#Straight_repetitions_of_the_title_in_the_opening_sentence. Does the reader have to be told it's a list of Houston Rocket head coaches when he can gather that from the list's title?
"Rockets" sounds too much like a fan-term

It looks good and all, and meets the criteria but I actually agree with GreenJoe. It's so small that it should be merged. Therefore I'm going to be Neutral on this one. Matthewedwards (talk · contribs · count · email) 08:35, 29 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I've removed the bold, and I refer to the team as the Rockets because they were in both San Diego and Houston, and so I refer to them just as the Rockets. I guess I can't change your opinion about the size, so oh well. Noble Story (talk) 10:34, 29 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

** Yeah. It is good, and I don't want to knock what you've done but I don't believe that it fits as the best Wikipedia has to offer (from WP:WIAFL), rather it is just an easy list to produce because the scope is small. It would offer a whole lot more if this were moved to the Houston Rockets article. That's why I'm not opposing, because it is good, but I just can't support either. Hope you understand what I'm saying. Matthewedwards (talk · contribs · count · email) 06:35, 30 May 2008 (UTC) Changed my mind. Most head coach articles are fairly small lists. Well written, so Support Changed my mind again. See Wikipedia:Featured list candidates/List of Cincinnati Bengals head coaches where Crzy and Redlands described it much more eloquently than I did here. Neutral until something is decided.
