Because when I check the Defensive lineman section he’s not on there
Yeah, that's what I meant, don't know for sure of any other missing ones. Feel free to add him if you like, otherwise I'll get around to it later.
The database overhaul has reduced the recommended page length. This page will be a little tricky to deal with, as the best short-term solution will likely be to make two new pages (one Defense, one Special Teams). Not sure what will become of this page afterwards.

That's the most logical split to me as well. Once split, the old page can be cutlisted.
Looks like the site has reverted to the old page length standard, not getting the alert anymore. Glad we weren't too hasty. We'll return to this if the issue returns.
Tracking the kicker career percentages game by game feels futile. For the active kickers, we should probably make them generic ("is in the top five" or "hovers among the most accurate ever" or something). They're so tightly bunched that one missed kick causes changes all over the top five.

This is the correct take. Think updating at the end of the season is fine, but I'll avoid week-to-week moving forward.
I think I'm going to go through and abbreviate everything I can on this page and the other ones as well to cut down on characters where possible.

I hope not everything. But yeah, position things that are mentioned in every entry can be shored up for repetition's sake.
That was what I was going to abbreviate to two-four letters, as they get redundant and takes up precious space.
"Linemen" folder is getting long; in favor of split between ends and tackles?

Eh, seems fine, but it's a little tougher than some other positions. Reggie White for instance played significantly as both end and tackle.
I think a split would be nice, but I think the tackles and ends thing is tricky, as some players played both positions equally well. I think splitting the folder into an A-M and N-Z or the equivalent is a little easier, but whatever works for you guys.
I'm considering adding Mose Kelsch since he's regarded as one of the first pure kicking specialists to play in the NFL. However, while he has a very interesting story, his career in the NFL was pretty short and he was more of a Pittsburgh legend than anything else, so I'm not sure if that quite warrants an inclusion. Thoughts?

Are there any Hall of Famers who still don’t have an entry here? Len Ford seems to be the only one
