@ Confused
Like Issac said, Wikipedia don't allow new pages unless they have references etc. It's generally harder to get those players that only played 1,2,3,4 seasons in the NBL on wikipedia. Unless they also played overseas.

There's actually a HEAP of players that are not on Wikipedia some little known others actually played a large part of the league early on.
Also wikepedia won't allow you to upload things like old newspaper clippings, magazine clippings etc.

This way i can allow any player to have their own page. Not only that but i have every player stats from every team. Defunct teams included. Something Wikipedia does not have and would not allow as there is no online reference to it. I have the info direct from the league HQ.

"Any chance on getting info about former NBL venues? There is info about some of them on Wikipedia such as Apollo, Melbourne Park (Rod Laver & Vodafone), BEC, Acer Arena etc but other venues like Albert Park Stadium, the old Wollongong Snakepit, Kingborough Sports Centre (Hobart) and Bankstown Basketball Stadium have none and info about them isn't always the easiest to find."

There will be some info on some of the older venues. Snake Pit, Kingborough Sports Centre etc. Still getting some pics of some of the other stadiums.

"Will there be live game reports in the wiki as well as player profiles, team profiles etc.?"

There will be player profiles, i have all stats from every team & every player. Eventually there will be a profile for each player. There's over 5,000 players that have played in the league so there's a fair chunk to get through. Once i've gotten up around 50-60% of the players i will launch the site.
All teams (old & current) have their own profiles.
As for live game reports, from this year onwards there will be a section for that, with old box scores. Eventually i will update older game reports from previous seasons, but these are pretty hard to come by. Thankfully i have close to every Pro Basketball Today released, which covers abour 70% of the 90s. 80s, you'd have 0 chance. The NBL doesn't even have these.

Just wondering what everyone thought about the most improved player award for this year would be. My tip would be either Okur or Caron Butler. Both have improved scoring and rebounding and have been along with Arenas, Boozer and D. Williams the reason the jazz and Wizards are right up there this year. Your thoughts.....
