A fact from Carlos Correa appeared on Wikipedia's
Main Page in the Did you know column on 2 July 2012 (
check views). The text of the entry was as follows:
The following is a closed discussion of a
requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a
move review. No further edits should be made to this section.
– There is only one "Carlos Correa" on the English Wikipedia. The other pages currently listed at "Carlos Correa" are
Gabriel Correa (full name Carlos Gabriel Correa Viana),
Carlos René Correa, and
Carlos Rodrigues Corrêa. Given that the others have these name differences (i.e., none of the other pages are or need to be "Carlos Correa (specifier)", I suggest that the baseball player is the "primary topic" for "Carlos Correa", does not need the specifier, and the disambiguation page should be moved. –

Support. In addition to the above, the baseball player has received 95.6% of all pageviews of the four articles listed at the disambiguation page, and over 44 times the views of the second-most viewed (31,263 vs. 701). The disambiguation page also gets more views (1274) than any of the other articles, and the significant spike in views of the disambig page coincides with a significant spike in views for the ballplayer, but not for the other three. None of the other articles suggest that they could make a claim for long-term significance to counter the usage claim.

Support None of the other people seem to be most commonly referred to as Carlos Correa, so I'd support this even disregarding page views. —

Rookie of the Year Awards
With regard to the current edit war regarding the Info box awards, I am of the opinion that the Rookie of the YEAR awards do not replace or reduce the importance of the Rookie of the MONTHS award. The Year award is given in addition to the six Month awards. One does not negate the other. The fact that the player received a monthly award is worth noting for the readers information. Is their a general protocol for previous winners of both awards? Edit warring is not the answer!.

Carlos Correa is a shortstop with the San Francisco Giants. Please update this old outdated page. Several sources like MLB have stated he is going to SF. IF he was still a free Agent then The Padres could sign him and that is not the case. WIKIPEDIA needs to get with the times and stop with the old outdated news. Several sources on this transaction are online. [1][2] I hope one day Wikipedia is bought by someone who will allow it to be edited in real time and Have accurat news and not old facts. CORREA IS NO LONGER A FREE AGENT. HE IS GOING TO SF. GET IT TOGETHER WIKIPEDIA. — Preceding

Hello. Can I add "San Francisco Giants (2023–present)" subsection on this article? According to MLB sources
here and
here, Correa reportedly agree to a 13-year megadeal with the Giants last week but yet to be signed. He doesn't have a jersey number for the Giants yet. --

Definitely a good move to delay. He's now with the Mets pending a physical. Given what's happened, nothing should be changed until that physical is complete.

Yes. To everyone who has talked shit to me about waiting for a deal to become official every single off-season, especially that above IP who said "GET IT TOGETHER WIKIPEDIA": I told you so. –

I agree. The SF agreement is part of the story. They had a press conference scheduled and everything. What we need to know is why the deal fell through. –

The updated sources from MLB
here and
here stated that Correa reportedly agree to a 12-year deal with the New York Mets, which we just learned today that he probably scrubbed a 13-year deal with the San Francisco Giants
in disagreement. I'll say we will have to wait until the deal is finalized and official via press conference, then we will add "New York Mets (2023–present)" subsection on this article under the "
Professional career" section. If the deal is official with the New York Mets, when you add this subsection on this article for the upcoming 2023 baseball season, can we also include the details about his previous deal to the Giants? --

Mets deal looks shaky now too. Maybe there should be a whole new page - “The repeated failed attempts at signing Carlos Correa in 2022” lol

Once this is all wrapped up and he's officially announced, we really need to add some material about this three-team free agent saga. It's a notable part of his career, and the sources that have covered its many twists and turns are generally reliable (The Athletic, New York Daily News, SF Chronicle), etc. The Giants' front office has even publicly commented on the collapse of the deal they had. I fully agree with the general content policy of not reporting on unofficial deals before they are announced, but I don't think that should extend to ignoring an important incident in a player's career just because it involved failed contract negotiations. As I said, I think the appropriate time to add that material is after he has signed a new deal.

Of course we will discuss what happened with the opt out, the Giants and Mets, and then circling back to the Twins. And if the deal falls through with the Twins, we'll cover that too. –

this free agency extravaganza is a good lesson (and it's not over yet)
Lots of people complaining about how he's "official" with the Giants/Mets, latest news has him signing with the Twins. Let's all just chill out and wait for official news. We are not a newspaper, and as has already been proven 2x, Passan/Heyman's tweets aren't always 100% accurate.

I agree with your point generally, but per what I just posted, it's pretty clear that reporters who claimed there were deals in place pending physicals with first SF and then NYM were absolutely correct that such deals occurred; they just ultimately were not finalized because of the physicals.

This whole saga is a perfect example of why we don't update articles until after the physicals are agreed to and a contract is signed. Once he finally signs with someone (apparently back to the Twins now) and has a press conference we can and should write information from reliable sources describing the ordeal with the Giants and Mets as well. Since he appears to be staying with the same team we don't need a new section for it either.
