Disambiguation link notification for December 18
[edit]Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited 1971–72 UEFA Cup, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Inter (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

East Germany
[edit]Please stop this disruptive editing and discuss this instead. Some of these pages have had the note for nearly 8 years, WP:BRD would suggest that contested changes be discussed further. East Germany no longer existed, which is adequately explained in a note at the top of the article. The inline notes don't need to crowd the tables of the remainder of the article in order to prove some point. S.A. Julio (talk) 14:08, 10 February 2019 (UTC)
- Also note my edits have not been WP:POINTy, unlike the disruptive where you blanked the flags and added invalid tags to the article. This is not a matter of sourcing information, a citation is not necessary for German reunification. S.A. Julio (talk) 14:15, 10 February 2019 (UTC)
- No, you seem to be refactoring my comments. If you really want I'll even provide a reference for German reunification (despite how unnecessary this would be). My edits have not been disruptive (unlike your aforementioned edits intended to prove a point), they are based on the fact East Germany no longer existed. You began your edits in January, which were contested. Read the nutshell of WP:BRD,
If your edit gets reverted, do not revert again. Instead, begin a discussion

1926-27 Coppa Italia
[edit]Although it was an interrupted edition, it was still an edition nonetheless. Do not skip over this in subsequent editions. Vaselineeeeeeee★★★ 03:41, 21 March 2019 (UTC)
- @Ballistiq: That is hardly a source. Can you find a written source? Please do so before doing further mass edits. Vaselineeeeeeee★★★ 21:28, 21 March 2019 (UTC)
- You've been reverted once again due to the failure to find a WP:RELIABLESOURCE to indicate this edition is not included in the number of editions. Vaselineeeeeeee★★★ 21:34, 21 March 2019 (UTC)
- Stop your revisions, and discuss first per WP:BOLD. Vaselineeeeeeee★★★ 21:35, 21 March 2019 (UTC)
- Can you please elaborate what you mean by official? According to who? Where are the sources? Vaselineeeeeeee★★★ 21:44, 21 March 2019 (UTC)
- We know it wasn't counted as a title, but what you're doing, by subtracting the number of editions by 1 implies that edition never existed, when it did and it is still an edition, just without a winner. Also, where are you getting the info from that those were second legs for the 1941 final for example and not replays? Vaselineeeeeeee★★★ 21:48, 21 March 2019 (UTC)
- What do you mean against its official position? You haven't given any written sources of its official position. What was there before you reverted 3 times before discussing is the status quo until shown reliable sources. Vaselineeeeeeee★★★ 21:53, 21 March 2019 (UTC)
- RSSF says "replay". Where is this 1943-44 Coppa Italia you speak of, cannot find any sources at all? And we can't imply anything, we need written sources. Vaselineeeeeeee★★★ 22:01, 21 March 2019 (UTC)

- I don’t understand why you don’t understand. Did you see the photo I showed you?--Ballistiq (talk) 22:02, 21 March 2019 (UTC)
- I did see that, but that is not a written official source, we cannot imply something for a photograph. See the lengthy discussion about using photos such as yours to imply trophy counts Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Football/Archive 122#Player Honours: Supercups in Trophy Counts? Vaselineeeeeeee★★★ 22:07, 21 March 2019 (UTC)
- I've asked for some input from some others. Next time, before reverting twice in quick succession, you have to discuss per WP:BOLD. WP:Wikipedia is not a battleground. Vaselineeeeeeee★★★ 22:27, 21 March 2019 (UTC)

- Sorry but you began to revert without discussion or explanations. Remember to verify your WP:SOURCES before editing to avoid such incidents. [1] Here on YouTube, the video of 2008 with a giant “60ª TIM CUP” (Tim cup was the commercial name of the cup at time). --Ballistiq (talk) 22:39, 21 March 2019 (UTC)
- Yes, and if you read WP:BOLD, you'll see it says if you make an edit and it gets reverted, you discuss. And WP:YOUTUBE is not a viable source. It's basically the same as your photo. We need a reliable source. Vaselineeeeeeee★★★ 22:41, 21 March 2019 (UTC)
- Ok, so here we go. I inquired with a user at it.wiki. Take a look at this reliable written source [2] indicating the 2016-17 edition as the 70th edition. Cancelled and interrupted have two different meanings. I will await your response within a reasonable amount of time before reverting, but as you can see, it is considered an edition.
