Career[edit]

@David notMD@Meters@Praxidicae what are your thoughts on removing information about resignation. In my opinion, it provides undue weight to recent events as all other coaching information is simply team records. This is a BLP page Coachch45 (talk) 11:39, 2 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Yes this page is a BLP. but the material is not a BLP violation. We mention that he was appointed interim coach, and that he suddenly resigned a few months later, but for some reason you think it is undue to mention why he suddenly resigned. I have restored a limited portion of the material. Meters (talk) 17:50, 2 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The presentation of why he resigned to me is one sided. This could be damaging content? Maybe reference his side of the story using this article ? https://dailymemphian.com/article/26769/cedric-henderson-responds-following-resignation

in addition, why are we highlighting this but no other portions of coaching career, for example , him coaching his son.

this is why I said it is undue weight.

@David notMD see above post Elitebasketball23 (talk) 18:02, 2 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Meters can you give thoughts on my comment above ? Elitebasketball23 (talk) 21:22, 5 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Really? You ask why are we highlighting this but no other portions of coaching career We also mention his coaching history at Southwest Tennessee Community College,at Southwest Tennessee Community College, at Southwest Tennessee Community College, at Trezevant High School, and at Memphis Day Academy. How is it you see this as focusing on Collierville High School? Was he forced to quickly resign from any of his other positions for his behaviour? I've already significantly reduced the coverage.

And we already mention him having coached his son. Meters (talk) 22:06, 5 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I am not upset, just genuinely asking. I appreciate the decrease in content. Elitebasketball23 (talk) 22:12, 5 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
