:Nominator(s): Brindille1 (talk) 03:54, 2 May 2025 (UTC)

I'm nominating this list as a continuation of my project to improve pages for defunct MLS teams. Brindille1 (talk) 03:54, 2 May 2025 (UTC)

:Still planning on addressing comments on this- hope to have time to do so this week. Brindille1 (talk) 02:21, 19 May 2025 (UTC)

• Tables need captions, which allow screen reader software to jump straight to named tables without having to read out all of the text before it each time. Visual captions can be added by putting {{tq||+ caption_text}} as the first line of the table code; if that caption would duplicate a nearby section header, you can make it screen-reader-only by putting {{tq||+ {{sronly|caption_text}}}} instead.
• Tables need row scopes on the "primary" column for each row, which in combination with column scopes lets screen reader software accurately determine and read out the headers for each cell of a data table. Row scopes can be added by adding {{tq|!scope=row}} to each primary cell, e.g. |align=left|{{sortname|Joseph|Addo|Joe Addo}} [...] becomes !scope=row align=left|{{sortname|Joseph|Addo|Joe Addo}} [...]. If the cell spans multiple rows with a rowspan, then use {{tq|!scope=rowgroup}} instead.
• I appreciate the attempt to use the team colors, but the light yellow on light blue is extremely difficult to read for anyone with reduced vision (fails the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines for contrast, I used [https://accessibleweb.com/color-contrast-checker/] to check #ffff00 vs #0bbff2). If you keep the blue, the text should be black; if you want to keep the yellow, the blue needs to be much darker.
• Please see MOS:DTAB for example table code if this isn't clear. I don't return to these reviews until the nomination is ready to close, so ping me if you have any questions. This is not a full review, and does not result in a support vote. --PresN 13:30, 2 May 2025 (UTC)

• I would move "A total of 80 players appeared in MLS matches for the club, including 7 different goalkeepers. Additionally, Matt Nyman appeared for the club in the 2001 U.S. Open Cup." to the end of the second paragraph or even the start of the third. It just seems a bit odd that you mention that one guy appeared only in the Open Cup before you introduce what the Open Cup actually is.........
• "In its six season" - missing S on the end
• Diaz Arce is initially listed under D but if you re-sort the column he jumps up to be among the As
• "As of the 2024 season, Garlick holds the record for the most saves in a season" - the club record? the MLS record? the world record?
• "Below is a list of players who have not appeared in a league match, but have played for the team in other competitions." => "Below is a list of players who did not appear in a league match, but played for the team in other competitions."
• That's what I got {{smiley}} -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 16:20, 2 May 2025 (UTC)

• Add {{tl|Use American English}}
• The short description is just a tad long per WP:SD40. What about "Tampa Bay Mutiny soccer club players" or "Tampa Bay Mutiny soccer club player list" or something similar? Falls in line with the examples at WP:SDLIST.
• The alt text in the lead image does not provide adequate context per MOS:ALTCON
• The wikilinks to United States and Canada in the lead is likely a MOS:OVERLINK
• The same for the alt text context could be said about the other images
• I won't go into deep detail since I've seen it's already done above, but addressing color contrast issues and table captions are a must
• "Notes" ---> "Reference(s)" or "{{Abbr|Ref(s)|Reference(s)}}" in the column editors - more descriptive header
• I believe the flags in the tables are a MOS:SPORTSFLAG issue

Think that's all I have! TheDoctorWho (talk) 22:26, 2 May 2025 (UTC)

• All alt texts need more context.
• Some archive links are needed.
• I think that yellow on blue is a violation of WP:COLOR.
• Should more detailed positions, for example wingers, be added?
• I don't think GKs should be in their own separate table.
• "All statistics are for MLS regular season games only." should be in a EFN note.
• Ping when done. History6042😊 (Contact me) 12:44, 3 May 2025 (UTC)

Oppose. The current and archived table links do not verify the stats. This is because they are pointing to the wrong archived links. For example, Addo should be [https://web.archive.org/web/20241127223550/https://www.mlssoccer.com/players/joseph-addo/ this 2014 link] as the [https://web.archive.org/web/20241127223550/https://www.mlssoccer.com/players/joseph-addo/ 2024] and [https://www.mlssoccer.com/players/joseph-addo/ current version] do not have this data. I tried looking at the [https://www.mlssoccer.com/players/joseph-addo/stats/ career stats] and [https://www.mlssoccer.com/players/joseph-addo/match-log/ match log] but they are blank. Other examples that I checked that need fixing include [https://web.archive.org/web/20160305114829/http://www.mlssoccer.com/players/goran-hunjak Hunjak], [https://web.archive.org/web/20190327110709/https://www.mlssoccer.com/players/scott-budnick Budnick] and [https://web.archive.org/web/20190415134301/https://www.mlssoccer.com/players/matt-nyman Nyman]. Therefore, I think all of the 2024-2025 tables links needs to be adjusted to earlier archived versions with these stats. As the tables make up the majority of the list, this mainly fails verification.--MrLinkinPark333 (talk) 20:23, 4 May 2025 (UTC)
