Local football articles

Hope all is well on your end. How is the Sundram article coming along? I noticed that your sandbox is now about Craig Bellamy while the mainspace article about Sundram has barely changed. --Hildanknight (talk) 17:10, 1 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Work on the Sundram article is on hold. I'm contributing to the Bellamy article since I'm reading his autobiography atm and as his article is mostly detailed, it would be an easier task to fill in the blanks compared to the much longer time it would take for Sundram. LRD NO (talk) 10:24, 2 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Noticed that you moved the Bellamy article to mainspace and your sandbox is now empty. Since Wikipedia has many English editors writing about English football (far better than we ever could), I think we should focus on Singaporean articles to counter systemic bias. Looking forward to eventually seeing the complete Sundram article in mainspace. Thanks again for your contributions and all the best! --Hildanknight (talk) 16:48, 19 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

2013 Singapore Cup knockout phase

This league Singapore EPL Fan Club League appeared on the newspaper a couple of times already. The fixtures are published time to time as well. Voxsports, the Singapore media, has also published highlights of the matches for the entire season. (HealthSX (talk) 06:08, 18 June 2014 (UTC))[reply]

The main article did not state the match details (the goalscorers) for simplicity as it was loaded with information already. There is no need to delete the page and it should retain as it has existed since last year and there is clearly no need to delete. (HealthSX (talk) 13:08, 18 June 2014 (UTC)) It has been practised by other tournaments on Wikipedia as well, one example is the World Cup, I think it's okay for it to stay the way it is.

Thanks buddy!

Hi there, pleasure to have you on Wikipedia, thanks for sharing your inputs, I appreciate it, please feel free to drop me any more comments if there are any discrepancies. Thanks!

RE: Local football

Hi there,

I am surprised, how did you manage to find out? I will try my best to contribute photographs as far as I can, but my organisation will be my first priority. I cover more on interviews and previews/reports rather than on taking photos. HealthSX (talk) 13:32, 23 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Enner Valencia

I would like for you to tell me where exactly you think he still plays for FC Pachuca. You say I have an unreliable sources but do you know my source? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Miguel0071 (talk • contribs) 19:15, 12 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

All the sources I see online points to Valencia still in negotiations with West Ham, and no deal having been confirmed yet. Nobody has said you have a unreliable source, only your edit was unsourced. There's a difference, and yes I don't know your source cos you didn't provide one. If you have a source or reference pointing to Valencia having signed a contract and being a West Ham player, you should include that in the article. Otherwise, as per WP:RS policy, it is liable to being reverted. LRD NO 19:46, 12 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Divock Origi

Don't remove the Lille B stats from the infobox; B team appearance are also shown in the infoboxes of footballers, e.g. Lionel Messi or Jasper Cillessen.

A barnstar for you!

	The Technical Barnstar
	Incredible how you got it so similar, thanks for the help. All the best, Mat ty.007 15:01, 24 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Ayoze Pérez

Sorry, but you are wrong, mate. See here, the both stats are with the first-team, and yes, the B-team stats were wrong, but according to here he scored 11 goals overall for them. I'll be correcting the page.

Also, I'm sorry for the language. MYS 77 ^✉ 13:49, 26 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I think you made a confusion about Segunda División B and CD Tenerife B. The first is a division where Tenerife's main squad played in 2012-13, while the second only played in Tercera División or less (excluding two seasons in Segunda B too). MYS 77 ^✉ 13:53, 26 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

No problem, mate :) Cheerio, MYS 77 ^✉ 14:41, 26 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Didier Drogba

Hi man, yeah sorry about that. Should have waited!

Facunda Ferreyra

Someone had already changed it and I was just adding references, sorry LRD NO. And you didn't need to delete the part about him scoring six league goals in five starts for his club last season. That is a fact that should be included in his bio. Rupert1904 (talk) 20:07, 1 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

No worries. Daily Mail tends to jump the gun regarding transfers so I'd wait for more reliable sources. Apologies if one of your valid edits got reverted in the process as there's plenty of correcting done on that page today. LRD NO 20:11, 1 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Understandable, I hadn't checked to see if Newcastle had confirmed it yet so I apologize for not looking for that first before adding the Daily Mail confirmation. Cheers! Rupert1904 (talk) 20:14, 1 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Seriously?

Eric Dier will wear number 25 for Spurs this season. Common sense doesn't need to be verified. Hugo Lloris hasn't had his squad number confirmed but as Spurs supporter I'm well aware of situations at the club to know he'll be wearing number 1 next year. It's not life or death & I'm not vandalizing pages with far our information I know to be false. Give me a break and stop changing my edits. THANK YOU. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Hotspurfc82 (talk • contribs) 16:19, 9 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia works on verifiability supported by reliable sources and not by personal opinion ('common sense' needs to be verified too). The consensus is that unless the numbers are officially announced by the club, all squad number edits are unsourced and will be reverted. For that purpose, numbers used in pre-season friendly (including dressing room pics) and training kits are not accepted, and will be reverted by most experienced editors. Fwiw, it was another editor who understands the process that reverted your edits on Lloris. Neither did I imply your edit on Dier as vandalism (different from unsourced), even if a full explanation was clearly given on the edit page.

Please take the time to familiarise with WP:RS before you continue with your edits. Thank you. LRD NO 16:26, 9 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

2014-2015 Tottenham Hotspur

If you actually did your research on the official Tottenham website and not act like a know-it-all, you would realise that Emmanuel Adebayor scored at 28 minutes instead of 29 and Roberto Soldado scored at 65 minutes instead of 66. Also, Ben Davies does not have an official number (#33 is just a temporary one) and Aaron Lennon and Younes Kaboul are ACTUALLY legitimate vice-captains of the club. Please respect the changes I made, or rather, please respect facts about the club and not remove every edit that was done. McDpZ Spurs (talk) 06:37, 10 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The official Spurs match report[1] had conflicting times for the goals scored in the summary and the main report and that's where the issue occured when I did a quick check. It would help if your other edits were sourced so that they can be verified. Apologies if I had removed valid edits as I had to deal with a clear vandal on the same page just before you.

Career stats

Hello. Had a hard day IRL yesterday and haven't properly woken up yet, so please excuse me not being very bright. From what I remember of that last discussion, there was a fair amount of misunderstanding and/or lack of clarity over terminology. I'm not sure that the words "listing seasons chronologically" clearly reflect any consensus reached, and in practice I can't see either/any party changing from their preferred format just because it's on the player MoS.

If you do see a clear consensus, please feel free to clarify the MoS accordingly, but do play safe and make sure you post on the talk page what you've done and why ;) Again, apologies if I'm not making much sense. cheers, Struway2 (talk) 09:47, 12 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Ah. A good-faith interpretation of the Oct 2012 discussion outcome could be:

several people explicitly agreed with the basics of the proposed table;

and, no-one explicitly agreed with my preference for strict-chrono sorting;

therefore, consensus for the basics of the proposed table including club/chrono sorting.

Not sure I agree with that logic, but I can see that people might. (And I changed my personal opinion on sort order somewhen between then and Jan 2014, but that's by the by.) When – 15 months later – a loan row was added to the MoS-page table, it became clear there was opposition from experienced editors, and the resulting discussion was inconclusive. If you're sure we do need clarification, maybe add your summary of the Jan 2014 discussion to the MoS talk page thread, leave the table unchanged, and add another note to those already below it, "Although a majority of editors prefer... some editors prefer... (link to discussion)" sort of thing? whatever your interpretation is. Worst that can happen is it'll be reverted and we can have another go... cheers, Struway2 (talk) 11:57, 12 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Chelsea squad numbers

Hi, I was using the former link and going by the updated positioning of Aké, Courtois and Moses, and had presumed the reason the numbers themselves hadn't been updated was because of an error. But we should know the numbers anyway by end of business today. Mattythewhite (talk) 00:13, 14 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The Ginger Pirlo

Accepted nicknames are a feature of many Wikipedia pages, why should Jack Colback be an exception? The accuracy of the nickname can be backed up by many sources.Chairboy73 (talk) 12:15, 28 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
