NHL: the claim "211 teams … faced a 3–0 deficit"
Under: National Hockey League ➝ Successful comebacks ➝ "211 teams … faced a 3–0 deficit". The problem is the reference doesn't say that. It doesn't say 211 teams. KingMidasTheSecond (talk) 04:41, 22 June 2024 (UTC)
- I found Nicholas J. Cotsonika, an NHL.com Columnist, saying "Of the 210 previous teams to fall behind 3-0 in the Stanley Cup Playoffs …". This makes the Oilers the 211th team. I'll fix the current incorrect reference.
- But we still have a problem. The text says "211 teams … have faced a 3–0 deficit … Only four of those teams overcame it …". This is now nonsense. The Oilers are counted in the 211 group but the outcome of their series is not yet decided. KingMidasTheSecond (talk) 04:58, 22 June 2024 (UTC)
- Text was saying 4 teams out of 211 overcame the deficit. This is incorrect. It's 4 teams out of 210. The 211th is now and we'll find out soon whether four or FIVE teams out of 211 overcame the deficit. KingMidasTheSecond (talk) 06:21, 22 June 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks for catching that, I had the page protected at WP:RFPP to keep IPs/new editors from prematurely adding the Oilers. Easier just to do so in a few days, when we actually know what category (successful or unsuccessful) to put them under. The Kip (contribs) 06:52, 22 June 2024 (UTC)

2024 Edmonton Oilers 2nd NHL Stanley Cup Finals after 0-3 deficit to win
Unless the 2024 Florida Panthers avoid the historic collapse, the 2024 Edmonton Oilers will become the 2nd Stanley Cup Finals after being down 3-0 to win the Stanley Cup Finals on Monday, June 24, 2024. 50.240.185.174 (talk) 20:17, 22 June 2024 (UTC)
- Cool. Let’s wait to add it until we know who actually wins/loses, okay? The Kip (contribs) 04:42, 23 June 2024 (UTC)
Why bold font in the very first sentence?
That bold font seems to have been there from the very beginning¹ and I believe most Wikipedia articles don't use bold font that way. I suggest we change it to regular font. (1) https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=List_of_teams_that_have_overcome_3%E2%80%930_series_deficits&oldid=947831887 KingMidasTheSecond (talk) 02:12, 24 June 2024 (UTC)
- Are you referring to the reverse sweep? Most list articles use the bold font to describe the article's title. Conyo14 (talk) 02:44, 24 June 2024 (UTC)
- I'm mostly referring to "list of teams that have overcome 3–0 series deficits".
- I am not seeing¹ what you assert — that "Most list articles use the bold font to describe the article's title". I also am not seeing such articles repeating their title in the first sentence.
- (1) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_lists_of_lists KingMidasTheSecond (talk) 04:28, 24 June 2024 (UTC)
- From your example, the first sentence says:
This list of lists of lists is a list of articles that are lists of other list articles.
. FurtherThis is a list of Canadians, people who are identified...
from Lists of Canadians. The sports lists in that article, most have the boldened title repeat in the first sentence. Not all, just most. Conyo14 (talk) 06:18, 24 June 2024 (UTC) - MOS:B and MOS:FIRST are the relevant guidelines here. That said, the lead here probably could be reworked; it's rather clunky right now. Hamtechperson 18:05, 24 June 2024 (UTC)
- From your example, the first sentence says:
Is it a 3-0 deficit or an 0-3 deficit?
I found no guidance from the Web on whether to write "a 3-0 deficit" or "an 0-3 deficit ". The mass media use each one, it seems.
Here's how Google (or the NHL?) reported the June 13th results¹. Edmonton Oilers (0-3) Florida Panthers (3-0) (FLA leads 3-0). It seems from the Oilers point of view the "0-3" conveyed the dire situation clearly. A player can simply say "We're 0-3". It seems we could say the Oilers were "0-3" in the series, or trailing/down "0-3", or facing an "0-3" deficit or hole. In each case the "0-3" seems like a stamp that conveyed the dire situation clearly.
I suggest we use the expression "0-3" more generally in this article, rather than "3-0".

- Gonna need more reliable, secondary, independent sources than a google search to change a title such as this to fit your ask. Conyo14 (talk) 06:19, 24 June 2024 (UTC)
- My post here wasn't about the title. It was about the expression "0-3".
- Also, my post contained an argument — which you seem to have completely missed. KingMidasTheSecond (talk) 20:53, 24 June 2024 (UTC)
- My answer is the same, you need WP:RS, WP:INDEPENDENT, and WP:SECONDARY sources to assist your claim. Conyo14 (talk) 00:30, 25 June 2024 (UTC)
- My claim does not require further assistance. It's a logical argument. Logical arguments are supported by logic. No source is required.
- Secondly, you're inexplicably demanding some kind of source from me while you're totally missing the fact that no kind of source is provided in defence of the "3-0" expression currently being used. KingMidasTheSecond (talk) 00:02, 28 June 2024 (UTC)
- I found instances in this article's history where contributors changed "3-0" to "0-3" and … guess who reverted those edits … without providing the slightest of "reliable, secondary, independent sources" to support their own preferred, counter-intuitive "3-0"? Could it be the same person who now demands … "sources to assist" … any argument (no matter how logical and self-evident) which favours changing back to the intuitive "0-3"?

Title of the article
I suggest: "List of comebacks from 0-3 deficits in best-of-seven series in professional sports".
I think it's preferable to (1) make clear it's in professional sports (2) use the "0-3" expression instead of "3-0" (3) use "comeback" rather than "overcome" because, to me at least, "overcome" seems to imply winning the series whereas comeback seems to imply returning to even the series.

- Do you have a source for that? Conyo14 (talk) 17:09, 24 June 2024 (UTC)
- How about these three articles on the series by the Latvijas Hokeja federācija (Latvian Ice Hockey Federation)?
