Missing Jerseys from Jersey History
[edit]The Jersey History is missing 3 Jerseys. I have no idea how to make these templates. If anyone knows how, that would be awesome.

- It would be best to contact someone who puts the jerseys on the articles. The template for the jerseys is here: Template:Basketball kit. Johnny Au (talk/contributions) 00:38, 1 February 2021 (UTC)

Franchise history -> Background Buffalo Beauts is incorrect, it should be the Buffalo Braves. 89.135.192.225 (talk) 12:17, 6 August 2020 (UTC)
Section 1.9 : 2018–2019: Arrival of Kawhi Leonard and first championship
[edit]Shouldn't there be a more encompassing headline than that? Something perhaps more inclusive and relevant to the current team? rather than just suggesting the Raptors first title was all Kawhi when in actuality it was a team effort with a lot of people's hands in it? The current title pays zero respect to Nick Nurse and Siakam for example. I think when we look back at this era the names Nurse, Siakam along with Lowry will be thought of heavily. Also we are clearly in a unique era in Raptors basketball, why does it just say 2018-2019, it should be 2018-Present.
Something like this "2018–Present : First Championship and the Nick Nurse, Lowry & Siakam Era"
Kawhi obviously being talked about in the section too but I think there is a better way to describe the current era we are in, notably because the era is still ongoing, it doesn't make much sense to cap it at 2018-2019 nor to award the heading solely to just one player. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2607:FEA8:3EDF:E22A:38B6:D9DF:B7CD:8D12 (talk) 18:55, 7 September 2020 (UTC)
- That would be a good idea. However, I would rather wait for another opinion first. Johnny Au (talk/contributions) 00:16, 8 September 2020 (UTC)
- Given that the Raptors have been eliminated in the second round of the 2020 playoffs, it would be a great opportunity to update the heading. Johnny Au (talk/contributions) 00:19, 14 September 2020 (UTC)
- Done but not by me. It has been simplified. Johnny Au (talk/contributions) 03:04, 19 September 2020 (UTC)

New Raptors logo
[edit]The new Raptors jerseys have been added to the main side box, shouldn't the new logo be added too? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2607:FEA8:3EDF:F06D:64FA:199B:4DFC:6610 (talk) 16:22, 18 October 2020 (UTC)

FA concerns
[edit]Looking at this older FA as part of the ongoing FA sweeps. There is a very large quantity of uncited text in this article, which does not meet WP:FACR. If this is not corrected, a Featured article review may be needed. Hog Farm Talk 15:03, 6 April 2021 (UTC)

Siakam is All-NBA
[edit]Under the awards and accolades section of this article, it is claimed that all Raptor All-Stars with the exception of Antonio Davis and Pascal Siakam are also All-NBA players. This is incorrect as Pascal Siakam was voted to the All-NBA 2nd team in 2020, making Davis the only All-Star without this accolade.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Ianwatling (talk • contribs) 22:10, 12 August 2021 (UTC)
