How long until page is unprojected?

How long until the page will be unprojected so non extended confirmed users and administrators can edit again? If i recall correctly when Tom Brady first retired, the page was projected and a week later, it went back. How long does it take for pages like these? Just curious. MichaelFansz (talk) 20:35, 16 March 2022 (UTC)

MichaelFansz, the protection logs show that Eagles247 applied a three-year autoconfirmed protection on March 1 and then Bagumba upgraded it to ECP on March 9, with an expiration of tomorrow, at which point the page will be fully unprotected. I believe we should keep the autoconfirmed protection in place. With the hopes that they approve, I'll reduce it to autoconfimred right now as the transaction is now official. – Muboshgu (talk) 20:44, 16 March 2022 (UTC)

We can always readjust if it's still not stable e.g. jersey numbers, etc.—Bagumba (talk) 21:45, 16 March 2022 (UTC)

See

Told you he was a bronco. Way to finally get it. 2601:283:4B80:5760:A13C:E6BE:1E67:33B7 (talk) 00:16, 17 March 2022 (UTC)

Yeah, like we told you, he became a Bronco today, after 4pm Eastern time. – Muboshgu (talk) 00:22, 17 March 2022 (UTC)

Just because you say something doesn't make it true. He wasn't at the time of the previous edits, simple as that. Hey man im josh (talk) 00:51, 17 March 2022 (UTC)

Trade context

I've replaced cited information about the background and motivation for Wilson's trade to the Broncos. The editor who removed this material wrote that it was "irrelevant", but I disagree as the context of the tade decision is relevant to the trade and to Wilson's career. This editor also described the information as "conflicting", but that's to be expected in a controversial situation. The references I offer come from both sides and are balanced. The trade itself is a significant inflection in Wilson's career, so a few sentences about it can not be considered WP:UNDUE. -- Mikeblas (talk) 20:06, 9 April 2022 (UTC)

Incorrect home sale amount

Article linked is wrong. Wilson's house house still on the market for $26 million - it didn't sell for $36 million. 173.175.232.97 (talk) 02:28, 18 October 2022 (UTC)

First paragraph

How are the Seattle Seahawks not mentioned in the first paragraph of his biography? He won a Super Bowl with them and is arguably most famous because of what he did this team. Needs to be included there, forget his college background and whatever else. Bdavid1111 (talk) 16:32, 28 November 2022 (UTC)
