I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page.

Parallel teams

Prishtina and many other clubs in Kosovo had 2 parallel teams during the 1990s. That fact is ignored here in our Wikipedia articles, and also at rsssf.com. The thing is that at the beginning of the 1990s there was one FK Priština competing in the Yugoslav leagues until 1999, and another KF Prishtina, sort of illegal, parallel, underground, rebel one, composed by ethnic Albanian players, which played in the unrecognized Kosovar League. In 1999 after the NATO intervention, the rebel ethnic Albanian KF Prishtina took over the stadium and other facilities which belonged to the "Yugoslav" FK Priština. This article mixes both of them. That is most easily visible because mentions the results in the Yugoslav league system and also mentions the titles won in the Kosovar league (listed under the Kosovar Superliga). Both happened simultaneosly, and that was possible obviously because there were two distinct clubs playing completely separately, one as FK Priština playing in the Yugoslav First and Second leagues, and another one KF Prishtina playing only in the Kosovar League. FK Priština is the successor of the pre-1990s club, while the nowadays club is in fact the rebel club created in the early 1990s. FkpCascais (talk) 20:40, 8 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

That should probably be brought out in the article, but to my mind should the kosovan titles be removed from the honours section as not actually won by this club? Fenix down (talk) 20:58, 8 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The ideal situation would be to have two separated articles, one for the club which competed within Yugoslav league system until it disappeared in 1999, and another for the one created in the early 1990s and that competed in what was the "illegal" Kosovar league until 1999, and became Kosovar Superleague since then. Until 1999 the FK Priština was playing in the current stadium, and that year after NATO intervention, the rebel KF Prishtina moved to the city stadium and plays there since then. The problem is that the current club claims the entire history for themselves, even including the contradiction that the titles and results in the Yugoslav league are overlapped.

Some time ago one editor fixed an equal problem that existed with another Kosovar club, KF Trepça. Now the content is adequately divided between KF Trepça and FK Partizan Kosovska Mitrovica. FkpCascais (talk) 21:21, 8 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Would that be the right thing to do? It would need proper sourcing as I am not seeing that distinction in the current article but then that's part of the problem I guess. Two articles would seem to be appropriate as the kosovan team seems to be a completely different entity. If you can source that properly I have no problem with a similar treatment being done as per the two teams you note above. Fenix down (talk) 21:40, 8 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I will try to find the sources and bring them here. It is not an easy task cause Kosovar Albanian sources claim the entire history for their clubs (and there are not many sources for Kosovar football unfortunately), while there must be Serbian sources but I will have to dig into them. I was aware of this situation for long time now, but I let things go and I just kept expanding the existing articles whenever I could. But if we start going into detail of seasons and the 1990s start being overlapped, it becomes impossible not to solve it. I also hope by opening this question here that maybe more editors can help, if not, I will bring here the sources I find during the next days. FkpCascais (talk) 02:10, 9 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Well I don't see any problem in principal. You could always bring it up at WT:FOOTY if you want to try to appeal to a wider audience. Fenix down (talk) 18:47, 10 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Separating this article in two

I see I had to restore some valuable content which was somehow deleted. I thought it was vandalisation, but now I see Kosovar editors did it and fully comply with it. The point is to erase the past, specially the 1990s. And I see why, because by early 1990s nationalist Albanians which supported independence formed a clandestine club that played in a parallel unrecognised league (similar as with FK Trepča/KF Trepca). So editors erased this sections already preparing for the inclusion of the clandestine KF Prishtina. So lets do it. Lets divide the article, and make an article about FK Pristina that played in Yugoslav league system fom fundation till 1999, and make a separate article for FC Prishtina that played clandestinelly during 1990s when it was formed, and took possession of FK Pristina property in 1999. I am OK with it. Any thoughts? FkpCascais (talk) 22:26, 23 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The fact is that by early 1990s many Albanian players left FK Priština and formed a clandestine club which played in the unrecognised Kosovar league. Other Albanian players stayed in the club and played along Serbs, Montenegrins, Bosnians, Macedonians, and others, in Yugoslav league system all way until 1999. So we have here almost a decade of two parallel clubs named Prishtina. National-Football-Teams.com already separated the two, putting in one side the one that played since fundation till 1999 (here), and on other side the one created in 1991 and that took the city stadium in 1999 after Kosovo war and plays now in Kosovo League (here).

Proposed merge of Plisat into FC Prishtina

No independent sourcing to establish fans meet WP:GNG. All material is derived from their facebook group Slywriter (talk) 01:42, 4 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Agree. Best Alexandermcnabb (talk) 13:31, 4 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I've gone ahead and carried out the merge as it seems uncontroversial. N.b. that the "Supporters" section of this article already had 90% of the content included at Plisat, albeit without reference. Further development of content about Plisat can be carried out here until the section is long enough to warrant splitting. _signed,Rosguill ^talk 22:24, 4 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
