  • 03:3703:37, 2 March 2022 diff hist +2,111 N Bill Cunningham (sportswriter)Since I've updated the 1921 SMU football page, and the related pages, I wanted to at least have a brief bio on E. W. (Bill) Cunningham, who's at the center of all of these changes. This Wikipedia "holding spot" for this Bill Cunningham was the right place to do that.
  • 03:3503:35, 2 March 2022 diff hist +239 SMU Mustangs footballThis change with the 1921 SMU season aligns with all of the other changes I've made regarding those various related Wikipedia pages. W. A. Cunningham was never a coach at SMU, as he's been mistaken for E. W. Cunningham, who was the interim head coach (Kelley was never a co-head coach). Please see the other pages for Rix, W. A. Cunningham, 1921 SMU football, Victor Kelly (actually, Kelley) for the other changes to align everything together.

  • 17:4217:42, 27 February 2022 diff hist −141 J. Burton RixThese changes align with changes I've made to entries for 1921 SMU football, W. A. Cunningham, & Victor Kelley (Kelly). Rix only coached the first 2 games in 1921, & was replaced by E. William (Bill) Cunningham (not W. A. Cunningham) for the rest of the season. I've added the correct citation & edited his coaching record to reflect just 2 games in 1921. There is list of "Bill Cunningham" entries in Wikipedia, but this Cunningham's entry is uncreated. He was Boston sportswriter for his career.
  • 17:0317:03, 27 February 2022 diff hist −57 Victor KellyVictor Kelley was not a co-head coach at SMU in 1921. He remained an assistant when Rix resigned after the second game. E. William (Bill) Cunningham took over as the head coach for the remainder of that season. I've corrected the facts in the 1921 SMU football entry, including the citation that Cunningham was the head coach (and no one else). Also his name is misspelled as "Kelly" on the Wikipedia entry -- don't know how to edit that. It was "Kelley" and his nickname was "Chock."
  • 16:4916:49, 27 February 2022 diff hist −1,005 W. A. CunninghamW. A. Cunningham was never a coach at SMU. He has been mistaken for E. W. (Bill) Cunningham, who was the caretaker coach for the balance of the 1921 season after Burton Rix resigned after the second game. See my edits and reference in the 1921 SMU Football entry for confirmation.
  • 16:3316:33, 27 February 2022 diff hist +252 1921 SMU Mustangs football teamI have corrected the coaching record for the 1921 SMU Mustangs, including the reference of Cunningham being the new (and only) head coach. This also clarifies the fact that W A Cunningham was never a coach at SMU.

I think it is more fitting of the encyclopedic style that you are seeking and I certainly agree my first go-round was more of a story. I hope this meets with your approval so that this can blend into Jefferson and Dixie football team articles better. I will also do a short article on Somerville Law to add that context. I also appended the Golden Cyclones Wikipedia article to update its transition to Dixie-that update was approved already. Thank you.
