Dude, I don't know who this DizzyD guy is, but either he wasn't present at the 2007 Braves Hall of Fame ceremony or he was just a non-notable spectator. I kindly ask that you stop revising the David Justice page to include the fact that he was in attendance as it is irrelevant and non-notable. I have no concerns over any other pages you may be contributing to.DJustice23 (talk) 15:05, 12 December 2008 (UTC)
I know for fact that he was present, because I was there. While it may not be relevant to you, it may be to others. Also, this is like the only page I watch and/or care to edit. David Justice has been my idol since I was 4 years old and I will continue to watch this page to ensure that it is completely accurate. It should be noted that I was the one that added the information regarding his current wife, his kids (which I had all of his kids correctly noted, and then someone messed it up), and his fraternity. Please keep the page to be edited by a David Justice professional, such as myself. .DizzyFLIPPINd
I'm glad to see that we have a mutual role model in David Justice, and while I can't claim that he's been my idol since I was 4, I can tell you that I have followed his career since his last year in Richmond when they won the International League title in 1989. Over the last fifteen years I have interviewed six former big-leaguers and four current (as of Dec-08) big-leaguers to contribute to Justice's biography. The highlight of my journey was in August 2007 when I drove sixteen hours to Georgia to interview Justice himself and congratulate him on being enshrined.
I was there as well, as were tons of Justice's former teammates, members of the media, fans and general well-wishers, none of whom are notable enough to require that they be listed individually. Why would we specifically note that "Dizzyd" attended, when a) he/she was not the focal point of the ceremony, b) this was in recognition of a sporting accomplishment, not a musical event, and c) he/she was not even mentioned throughout the entire event? I'm not going to get in a pointless revert war with you, but consider the fact that you're doing your idol a severe disservice by drawing attention away from David Justice in his own wikipedia article.
Not to nit-pick, but what exactly makes you a "David Justice professional?" Professional implies that you get paid - how much do you make for dropping the name of an unknown rapper in your idol's wikipedia page? While I like to think that my collection amounts to a David Justice museum - and myself as something of an expert on his career - I make my money as a sports writer and novelist. It's too bad, because I think the rest of the work you've done on the article is great and there are so few David Justice fans out there, I just have to wonder if your decision regarding Dizzyd is a result of poor judgment, tasteless self-promotion, or both.
