Have People lost interest in keeping this page updated? 144.140.31.5 05:54, 28 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

What would you like to be updated? The stats are generally kept up-to-date, but I wait for the results on the official site to be registered as "official" before I get my information if they're not already updated. AlbinoMonkey ^(Talk) 10:38, 28 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

2005-06 League Records, but as you said, you wait for the official stats so that's fine. I was just impatient. 144.140.31.5 06:32, 29 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Can you please tell us the locations of the crowd attendances please? For example, please say the stadium used. We want to know how big a crowd our soccer is pulling statewise. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Sliat 1981 (talk • contribs) .

Seperate Statistics Article

The following discussion is preserved as an archive of a proposal that was opposed. Please do not modify it.

Proposal:

For stats like biggest win, yellow cards, assists etc would it be better to put them in a seprate page called A-league 2005-06 Statistics (we should still leave awards and goalscorers on original page though).

Proposed by Boltonfan22.

Feel free to discuss. Decision time will be 09:00, 12 August 2006 (UTC), unless extension required to finish discussion.

Oppose - In my honest opinion (which is more-often-than-not wrong), I think they should stay on the main page. The last thing we need is more pages linked off the A-League one, and the stats info currently adds quality and informative content to an otherwise-shortish page.

Oppose - I think they should stay on the main page as well. Perhaps an overall statistics article that goes more indepth, but I think the season stats are best left here. -- Chuq 09:13, 9 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose - I think the current page is not too long. And the 2005-06 League Records section is only about one-quarter of the current page length. -- Wantok 09:49, 9 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose - I agree with all of the above comments. The statistics are an integral part of the main article. Similarly, I don't think a separate statistics page would add much. ViXx 15:04, 11 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I closed this. It looks pretty obvious to me that the split isn't going to occur. Daniel.Bryant 05:01, 12 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Incorrect figures

Seems the Home attendance figures were wrong for Queensland, Melbourne, Perth, Central Coast and New Zealand. The figures in the Rounds sections and the totals in the table now add up and they also match the A-League websites. It's no wonder they were wrong, some websites are out by a lot. See http://soccernet.espn.go.com/stats/attendance?league=aus.1&year=2005&cc=3436 for example. --Squilibob 15:30, 29 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Interesting. I have found errors in this table before, and unable to find where the problem was occurring, I painstakingly entered the figures from each game result into a spreadsheet and calculated them all myself. Can you see where I got it wrong? Note - one of the summary pages on the A-League site includes the first couple of weeks of finals, so it is incorrect (for this purpose). This wouldn't effect Qld, Melb, Perth or NZ though.. also I notice that some figures are calculated automatically - wouldn't it make more sense to calculate the average from the total, rather than the other way round - less chance of rounding errors that way. -- Chuq 20:47, 29 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

You're right. It makes much more sense to use the totals instead of averages and it's easier to update too, so I've changed it so that is how it works. Thanks for your spreadsheet, it seems that Newcastle was also incorrect from before, that means only Sydney's figure was correct from the original table! How did we miss all those incorrect figures before? The averages on your spreadsheet are out because they don't seem to divide total by number of games played. For 2005 it is 920219 / 84 (4 games per round * 21 rounds) which is 10,955. --Squilibob 00:15, 30 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

On second thoughts it would be easier to have the number of games, and then the crowds for each game. Then both the total, the average, the maximum AND the minimum could be auto-calculated! I'm no expert on MediaWiki's math functions though so it may not be possible. Maybe the stats were changed by a subtle vandal and we didn't notice.. also, I know some of the cells on my spreadsheet are useless (eg. L23, K24 and L24) - there is another column missing from my spreadsheet image but I'm guessing it contains the 10955 figure! (Not at home now so I cannot check - but will later) -- Chuq 01:57, 30 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The figures are still incorrect. If the Central Coast finals figure of 17 000+ is included, why aren't the Sydney finals figures of about 30 000 and 40 000 included- the max for Sydney is much less in the attendence figures table. 202.67.75.206
