From BR Bullpen

We now have information on 100 leagues! Basically all could use more information, but some have fairly in-depth histories. Pretty impressive...

We'll have all of them eventually ! We should strive to at least indicate three things for each league: dates of operation, geographic area (it's not always obvious from the name) and level. That will create a base from which people who actuallyknow something more can build on. --Philippe 03:41, 26 Dec 2005 (EST)

About six months to get to 100 and another 4 days to reach 150. We're cooking with gas. I think we've gotten the majority of minor leagues covered now. --Mischa 20:14, 29 Dec 2005 (EST)

The pace is definitely dropping off as we're running out of 20th-21st century minor leagues to cover. We've gotten another 50 in the past 9 days to reach 200, but there isn't too much left. Now, once we get a good source for the 19th century... - --Mischa 20:01, 7 Jan 2006 (EST)

At some point, we went over 250 leagues. It will be a long time until we find another 50, I think. - --Mischa 20:03, 16 Mar 2006 (EST)

The text says "most foreign leagues have working agreements with the majors." What is the nature of the agreements? --Just me 17:11, 27 Apr 2006 (EDT)

In terms of rights to players. American teams can't just sign somebody off another club's roster without compensation. - --Mischa 17:35, 27 Apr 2006 (EDT)

Just when I thought I was done with all the "cities represented", we have a discrepancy in the Eastern Shore League. Anybody have other sources for Laurel and Northampton? --Just me 20:56, 28 Apr 2006 (EDT)

Here is a dsicussion thread that eventually talks about classifications in the minor leagues before 1902. Anyone else heard of that? --Just me 14:58, 4 July 2006 (EDT)

Well, I guess my March comment was off. We're now at 300 leagues. Wow. - --Mischa 20:28, 22 October 2006 (EDT)

Over 350 since my last check. - --Mischa 20:01, 26 November 2007 (EST)

At some point, we've gone over 400. - --Mischa (talk) 12:23, 19 August 2013 (EDT)

Added. Please use the correct category and it will show up right. - --Mischa 21:39, 15 October 2008 (EDT)

Standings[edit]

Many of the Standings Charts on the League pages list incorrect managers. The last names are correct, but first names have been haphazardly changed to avoid "red links" at the cost of accuracy. I have been trying to correct as I see them, but its going to take a systematic effort to go through them. --Jeff 21:04, 4 September 2010 (EDT)
