Clemson doesn't report its football team being a conf member in this year. Only one of four games involved possible conf members. And we've repeatedly seen that a school can be a conf member without one of its teams in a given sport being a member for a specific season. UW Dawgs (talk) 08:43, 14 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Well, we haven't seen that for sure yet with SIAA or SAIAA schools; it's mentioned in the aub yearbook with the football coverage, and the bloody president of the SIAA at one point was W. M. Riggs. I trust a contemporary source more than the media guide. Cake (talk) 09:05, 14 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

pg 200. What's your RS? UW Dawgs (talk) 16:12, 14 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The Glomerata, as linked in the article.... It's a contemporary source unlike the media guide citing nothing a century after the fact. Cake (talk) 07:34, 15 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

It is so very apparent your source only remembered the years they were SIAA champions, not just in the SIAA, as I've stated multiple times now. Cake (talk) 07:36, 15 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@MisterCake: Your edit asserts Clemson football is a member of the SIAA conference in 1898 and also reverts my tagged request for a Template:Better source. My citation of Clemson's 2016 Media Guide, pg 200 shows 1898 Clemson football was not part of SIAA or any other conference -contrast the 1898 visual treatment with 1900, 1901, 1938, 1953, and later years where the conference name and conference W-L-T record are explicity broken out.

Do you have a WP:RS which supports your change asserting 1898 Clemson football participation in SIAA? UW Dawgs (talk) 08:35, 15 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

This has to mention football explicitly because...? Cake (talk) 10:14, 15 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Please produce a link to whatever source(s) you believe support your contested 1898 Clemson/SIAA edits so they can be reviewed. UW Dawgs (talk) 16:44, 15 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
