Trim the lead

[edit]

The lead needs someone with a talent for trimming content. The lead is way too bloated and includes a lot of unnecessary details that should only appear in the body. Unfortunately, trimming leads is not a skill I possess. The lead should summarize and highlight only the most important content from the rest of the article. Look at any other NFL team's article, even the oldest teams, and you'll see that their leads are nice and concise, and hit all the important highlights. The other content that isn't lead-worthy can be included in the body if its not already there. So, who's really good at condensing a lead? 2605:A000:FFC0:D8:FDF2:3EB5:8751:7A62 (talk) 19:39, 2 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I'll second that. I was going to start a new discussion here for that so thank you for doing that! Facts707 (talk) 07:54, 13 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Including more modern cultural changes for the Cincinnati Bengals

[edit]

I created two additional headings underneath the "culture" section of the Cincinnati Bengals page, and was informed to post my additions here for review and post. The two headings I included are "Harambe", which gained prevelance when Sam Hubbard, the Bengals' defensive captain mentioned him in a podcast regarding Super Bowl 56, and "Joe...", which detailed the differing nicknames that the Bengals fandom have given to their breakout star quarterback Joe Burrow, who broke the team's playoff drought. [[1]] holds the information I wish to add, and [[2]] holds the original information of the page. Thank you for your time. --Lharg (talk) 01:35, 14 March 2022 (UTC)Lharg[reply]

Minor Edit

[edit]

In the sentence “After the first two conference championships they lost to the San Francisco 49ers in both Super Bowls XVI and XXIII” The “Super Bowls” Word should have a comma between the L and S and there should be no link in the word that directs you to the Super Bowl History Page and all that. 71.38.106.38 (talk) 02:30, 25 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your message. We can place commas after certain words, but we don't place them in the middle of a word. The Super Bowl link is helpful for the general reader who may not be that familiar with the term. Larry Hockett (Talk) 02:40, 25 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

game balls?

[edit]

Is it worth creating a para for this game balls thing[1]? Valereee (talk) 21:51, 24 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
