Blank:GM

From Sim Football Wiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search

To create a new GM page, edit the following link to contain the name of the GM (it will be case-sensitive), then open it in a new browser tab:
http://iltornante.com/nsflwiki/index.php?title=YOUR_GM_NAME_HERE&action=edit

Now you just need to populate the page.

When creating a new GM page, it might be helpful to use this as a guideline, replacing the relevant parts with information (and backstory) about the person in question. You can copy and paste this directly into the page you created, and edit the bits you need to.

If referring to a team in the DSFL, as a general rule any instance of "NSFL" can be replaced with "DSFL" in the below template and still work. For example, {{dsfly|3}} works the same as {{nsfly|3}}, except it will link to the corresponding DSFL season rather than NSFL.

To add a picture, put the filename you want to use (try and make it somewhat descriptive, like "PlayerName01.png") in the correct place in the template, and submit the changes. The filename you chose should show as a red link now, click it and upload the file on the page that loads.

Look at wikipedia for an example of what kind of stuff should go in these pages, if you're not sure. For example Bill Belichick or Marvin Lewis. For an example of a player turned GM, Bart Starr is a good example.

Everything between <!-- and --> (including the tags themselves) can be removed unless otherwise stated. If you have any questions, send a DM to 37thchamber on the forums.

'''<< Name >>''' (born mmmm d, yyyy) is a [[wp:American football|football]] executive who is the [[List of NSFL general managers|general manager]] for the [[<< Team >>]] of the [[National Simulation Football League]] (NSFL).  <!-- add a quick one or two sentence summary of their career here; e.g. "Before joining Team X, so-and-so had served as general manager at Team Y and Team Z, winning General Manager of the Year in {{dsfly|4|nolink}}." -->

==Early years==
Where were they born? Where did they grow up? Who were their parents? What high school did they attend? Did they play other sports before focusing on football?

Basic information like that. 

<!-- remove this section if they were never a player -->
==Playing career==
Played what position at college? Which college? Highly rated? Split this up by team if possible

===<< First pro team >>===
At most, there should be two or three sentences per season here. If you need to write more, it might be better to create a new article for any specific major events that require more details

===<< Second pro team >>===
If they played for multiple teams...

<!-- end of playing career section -->

==Coaching career==
<!-- the following is an example, but not every GM will fit this style, so remove the bits you don't want or need -->
===Early career===
Pre-NSFL stuff? Or maybe pre-coaching stuff? Maybe they were a player in the NSFL originally and had a season or two as a coach on staff before being promoted (fits as a nice in-context explanation for players whose users were part of a team's war room perhaps)

===<<Team One>>===
Summary of events and achievements at their first post

===<<Team Two>>===
Same but for the second team... duplicate this section for as many tenures as they have had.

==References==
