AFD for a page you had PRODded
[edit]Hi there! You had proposed Treg Setty for deletion, and the PROD was deleted, but I just wanted to swing by to let you know that there is now an AFD nomination for the article, in case you are interested. Happy New Year! Dawn Bard (talk) 01:05, 1 January 2012 (UTC)
Why did u add this template to the article? I used reliable sources like the book of de:Philipp Heineken (Sportpionier). [1] --Yoda1893 (talk) 18:35, 3 January 2012 (UTC)

[edit]Hi, I cannot find where the content on Crisis or transformation is copied from. Could you please add a link or description why it is a copyright infringement? Thanks! Reaper Eternal (talk) 20:58, 3 January 2012 (UTC)
- Twinkle didn't let me post the URL in the G12 tag (spam blacklist) but I found it at http://vkon takte.ru/note2262432_9822430. (without the space)
The article is dated 2010. Cloudz679 21:12, 3 January 2012 (UTC)

AFC Ajax season 2005-06
[edit]Hey Cloudz679, thanks for wanting to help me with the article, the references for all statistics and information found in the article are referenced in the match reports, please let me know where you see any more information in the article, which is not available in the individual match reports. Thanks again. (talk) 11:17, 4 January 2012 (UTC)
- Transfers, I know there is a redlink to a national transfers page. Before that article is created it would be useful to have references for transfers. Also info about the training camp, for example. I think that one is quite important as it is in the lead section of the article. Thanks subzzee, Cloudz679 19:54, 4 January 2012 (UTC)
Well
[edit]What went wrong in this Yukie Sato article that I made? Even though I put more citations into this article than the Korean and Japanese versions. Komitsuki (talk) 13:42, 11 January 2012 (UTC)
- According to the guidelines at WP:MUSICBIO, articles about musicians should demonstrate notability in terms of at least one of the twelve points. A particularly important aspect is that the artist has charted. If you can demonstrate this with a reliable reference, I'm sure the article could stand. It is often useful to look at existing articles to see how it has already been done. For example, Aaliyah. Good luck and please contact me if I can be of further help, Cloudz679 14:02, 11 January 2012 (UTC)
- You can bring this deleted article back via my user page. I need to do more digging in order to collect better citations, as he's technically an underground artist. Komitsuki (talk) 14:05, 11 January 2012 (UTC)
- Usually, underground artists should not have their own articles on wikipedia.
If you would like a copy of the article for your userspace, you should contact someone from this group -- Category:Wikipedia administrators who will provide copies of deleted articles-- but it should probably stay in your userspace until reliable sources for Yukie Sato can be found (or are published). Cloudz679 14:08, 11 January 2012 (UTC)- In the first instance, you should contact the admin who deleted the page to request a copy. Cloudz679 14:12, 11 January 2012 (UTC)
- We're talking about Japanese-Korean underground artist, which he isn't really underground in American or in British terms. Please think like an Asian. It will help you further. ;) Komitsuki (talk) 14:14, 11 January 2012 (UTC)
- Well maybe you can update this Underground music with information so we can better understand each other! Thanks! Cloudz679 14:26, 11 January 2012 (UTC)
- Thank you for your suggestion. Maybe I'll bring this Yukie Sato article in 2 months. Komitsuki (talk) 14:51, 11 January 2012 (UTC)

Delete Korea Developemeant Bank FC
[edit]Why do you want to Delete Korea Developemeant Bank FC? This club is very important club of korean football history. I amd planning to make this article with many information. But I have to translate language. it takes long time. your job is wekepedia controller. But this is my just hobby. So please wait. Delete deletion tagPfrd (talk) 03:52, 12 January 2012 (UTC)
- If you want to create an article about an important Korean football club and translating it is taking too much time, I suggest you create it at the Korean wikipedia first, where you can develop it, then later on translate it into English. Cloudz679 12:17, 12 January 2012 (UTC)
Generally speaking, high schools are not deleted per WP:PROD. Googling for the high school name turns up facebook sites and so on which probably can't be used as sources, but at least suggest that the school is in existence. I'd suggest leaving the tags and hoping that someone will improve it at some point. ˜danjel [ talk | contribs ] 15:58, 12 January 2012 (UTC)
- Well, it's your call to remove the prod. I won't take it to AfD. Cloudz679 16:07, 12 January 2012 (UTC)
Brno
[edit]Hello. You might be interested in this section of Zbrojovka Brno website --> http://www.fczbrno.cz/cs/o-klubu/vyznamni-hraci/. It contains very well maintained profiles of club's best players. I think it is a great reference for creating new articles on Wikipedia. - Darwinek (talk) 11:00, 14 January 2012 (UTC)
- Thanks Darwinek, I will keep it here for the moment. Actually I have a list in my userspace, which is a collection of redlinks to players who played many Gambrinus liga matches so I could look at the Brno stuff later. Also there is the interesting situation at Viktoria Žižkov, who I expect will need lots of new articles when their new team starts playing next month! Cloudz679 11:51, 14 January 2012 (UTC)
- I fixed the mistake with caps/goals for Maroši. I would say the number 365 at the Zbrojovka Brno website would be accurate. From my experience, the stats there are very precise comparing to other websites. As for the lower Austrian clubs, I think it could be added to the text. I don't know if there are any conventions regarding the infobox. - Darwinek (talk) 12:05, 14 January 2012 (UTC)
References vs. external links
[edit]Hi there, wherever possible, please do not replace direct, in-line citations with external links, as you have done here. Thanks, GiantSnowman 18:06, 22 January 2012 (UTC)
- Hi, if you check the "reference" I removed, it contains only position, date of birth, parent club, type of transfer, goals scored and yellow cards. In other words, it wasn't actually a reference to the "cited information". The player was at Karlovy Vary because it is the farm team of Sokolov.[2] This does not verify that the player had a youth career at Sokolov. Cloudz679 18:40, 22 January 2012 (UTC)
- On closer inspection, that 'reference' was added by an IP used by Zombie433 (talk · contribs), who has been banned for adding fake & false info to article, so removing it was actually the right thing to do - sorry! Thanks, GiantSnowman 18:51, 22 January 2012 (UTC)
- No problem, I took the opportunity to add another reference to the article in question, so we managed to make something good from the situation. Thanks - Cloudz679 18:55, 22 January 2012 (UTC)

Football clubs
[edit]You are apparently trying to delete some Libyan second tier football clubs. I consider even second tier as an indication of possible importance. Do you have any particular reason why you think otherwise? I am detagging in the interim if I can verify first tier or second tier. Some you have tagged seem identical to second tier names except for the article, "Al-", and probably represent the same clubs. Please stop further tagging until we have a chance to discuss this. I'll look here. (I'm Aware that another admin, working from the other end of the list, has been deleting them; I think he is not closely enough following the standard for A7, & I have told him so. I wouldn't challenge prods,so it would be simpler to do them that way and help us avoid conflict. DGG ( talk ) 23:52, 22 January 2012 (UTC)
- Even the Libyan top division is not on the list of fully professional leagues. The articles I tagged typically consist of "X is a Libyan football club based in Y" plus a template or two. If these clubs are unreferenced and there is no assertion that they have played in the top flight, I am going to PROD them as you suggested. Of course finding references for the other clubs is another matter. Thanks for your comments. Cloudz679 06:29, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
- For notability, the problem is unreferenced vs unreferenceable, together with systematical bias, complicated by the difficulty of finding the exact names. They probably all could be referenced in local print sources with sufficient dedication, though the references might well not amount to substantial coverage--for that we both know is usually the case for similar clubs even for more easily documented countries. But they deserve being visible enough to give someone a chance to try--although when, as here, the articles were written some time ago, it becomes quite unlikely. Though not notable; the question is claim to importance, and saying a club is an organized league system is to some extent a claim of importance, enough that some few of them will possibly be notable, and speedy is for the hopeless. My feeling is that have an article on the league listing the clubs and their cities is usually the best solution and the template should be converted accordingly. I am of course reluctant to do such conversion when I am not sure of the subject and the names. DGG ( talk ) 09:28, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
- and, I apologize for my careless error in deleting your comment at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Davenport–Hingis rivalry (2nd nomination). It seems to have been a slip of the mouse; I must have meant to revert some other edit, probably one connected with the clubs discussed above. I accidentally duplicated it before I saw you had already restored it. I think I have fixed it now. And fwiw, I too am very skeptical of such rivalry articles not just in tennis but sports generally, which normally just duplicate material already present, unless the rivalry is really famous. DGG ( talk ) 09:28, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
Černý
[edit]I asked several Czech-speakers to help me with research. They did, and found sources (cited in the article) that clearly indicate that there was a Mr Černý who fit the description and whose first name was Karel, but that there was no Mr Černý who fit the description and whose first name was Pavel.

Are you stalking my pages?
[edit]Hello there my fellow Portsmouth fan (dont worry, you guys will be back in the Prem in 2013-14). I have noticed that you have taken an interest into my pages that I have created recently. Now I am not like past Indian Football or Indian Sports wikipedians who try to edit Indian Sports pages and does a very poor job and ignores all warnings. I will take action and I will challenge my point strongly. I understand when I am wrong (example: The missing reference of Freiman Peixoto) but I do try my best. Anyway I am just wondering if you are patrolling all my created pages because when I check my watchlist (which I check around 100 times a day) I have been seeing edits on my pages from you lately and they have mostly been stuff saying that all my pages should be deleted, I need better references and all that which I am fine about but I am just wondering if you are just going to my page and just looking every page I make and looking for something I did wrong. That is all. Cheers. --Arsenalkid700 (talk) 18:36, 29 January 2012 (UTC)
- Thank you for that message mate. Also thank you for not reading my message as if I was angry because when I reread it I thought if someone read it they would think I am angry. Anyway I do see what you are saying and I will read the page you sent me. By the way was that link I put in the deletion discussion for Life Sports enough to prove the reliability of Life Sports FC (same for Kohima Komets) because they do mention them as pro and the Morung Times (the news paper they come from) is a very well known reliable paper from the North East of India. Cheers and thanks for the advice. By the way, dont worry about Portsmouth, once a buyer comes in you guys will go on a role. I really do miss the Portsmouth supporters South American type of support with the bells and horns. --Arsenalkid700 (talk) 19:01, 29 January 2012 (UTC)
- Hahaha. I can not stop and laugh at that. Thanks for finally taking notice. Cheers. --Arsenalkid700 (talk) 19:16, 29 January 2012 (UTC)
Indian Football Notability
[edit]Hey mate, I just wanted to say that after all the things going around with the notability of my articles on Indian Football and stuff I decided to create a page which lists the notability guidelines for Indian Football. Yes this may be very unneeded right now but as I think we both know, the Indian Football system is really messed up and sometimes the Wikiproject Football rules are hard to understand when it comes to deciding whether I should make this article or not because Indian Football does not really have a set football system. Here is the article... User:Arsenalkid700/Indian Football Notability. I would love your reply back on the page and feel free to change anything. This page just makes everything more simpler in my opinion and ends unneeded confusion over whether this Indian Football topic is notable for a wikipedia page or not. Cheers. --Arsenalkid700 (talk) 22:33, 30 January 2012 (UTC)

- Just below that it says "For the sake of clarity, debates should be bundled only at the start or near the start of the debate, before most of the discussion." But yes, the wording could be clearer. GiantSnowman 17:40, 10 February 2012 (UTC)

- Thanks for the review and responding quickly to my fixes. :) --LauraHale (talk) 11:41, 18 February 2012 (UTC)
- Thanks for the compliment. :) I like creating new articles, though my writing sucks. (I can generally get the sourcing, but making it readable and well sourced it PITA.) I'm hoping to review a few DYKs in the next few days. Just a few things to finish first. ;) --LauraHale (talk) 12:11, 18 February 2012 (UTC)
- I think I crunched the numbers at one point. About 10% of the articles I create, I take to DYK. (Or rather, I've created something like 500 articles and taken about 50 of total articles to DYK.) I have some mild over compensation issues trying to make sure material that may fall on the margins passes WP:GNG. Hence, articles end looking like the have content. I would have taken every one else on the Australian Institute of Sport team to DYK, but sadly, 16 year old and 18 year old basketball players are pretty boring. :( Thus, hard to be inspired to write more in depth. I like taking articles about female sportwomen to DYK though. :) And probably not going to take anything to FA. I could probably take two to GA tomorrow if I wanted to spend a day editing them. --LauraHale (talk) 12:29, 18 February 2012 (UTC)

Re: Multiple PRODs
[edit]I must admit I did not attempt to engage IQual when he/she first appeared on my radar a little less than a year ago, since I didn't realise then just how many non-notable articles he/she has created. This being said, IQual has engaged me when he/she didn't understand what I was doing, and based on recent editing behaviour (new creations, contesting or not contesting PROD's) I think he/she has got the hang of what's notable and what isn't. It's just a matter now of clearing out the non-notable stuff created earlier. So as to avoid a duplication of efforts, I've checked every BLP created by IQual on or after 23 January 2011. For those that haven't been PROD'ed, I've been able to confirm their notability. I appreciate you imput. Sir Sputnik (talk) 21:55, 9 March 2012 (UTC)

When removing content, please specify a reason in the edit summary and discuss edits that are likely to be controversial on the article's talk page. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the content has been restored, as you can see from the page history.

A bit surprised
[edit]Hi there CLOUDZ, VASCO here,
regarding this WP:FOOTY bit i brough forth (see here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Football#N.C3.A9lson_Marcos), not quite sure i understood your reply mate. I don't set time limits for people to reply, my frustration stems from the fact many (many! not one, not two, not ten, MANY) of my queries have born and died without one word of feedback whatsoever, i really don't know what to make of it.
On a more technical approach, i was not worried about using foreign sources man, i was worried the content i added was not deemed encyclopedical. Kind regards too, keep it up - --Vasco Amaral (talk) 10:31, 22 March 2012 (UTC)
- I don't know what to say about the lack of response at WP:FOOTY, I usually get at least a couple of replies, although in the past I have chosen to contact editors directly, depending on the issue. Regarding the info you added to Nelson Marcos, I think it is most likely unencyclopaedic and shouldn't be there. Another comment I have, looking at the article, is that the car crash seems to be quite important to this article, but there is no reference for it. Good to see people like you making Wikipedia a better place. Thanks for the feedback. Cloudz679 11:25, 22 March 2012 (UTC)
- Will try to get refs for the car accident, 99,999999% chances it'll have to be in Portuguese. Cheers! --Vasco Amaral (talk) 13:02, 22 March 2012 (UTC)
- Only thing i found was this, hardly encyclopedical web methinks (see here http://www.bigsoccer.com/forum/showthread.php?t=198542), plus a forum and comments. It also contains a link to Record - that is indeed reliable! - but it is dead, D-E-A-D :(
If you do think it is good to go, then no problem with me. Happy one, "see" you - --Vasco Amaral (talk) 09:54, 23 March 2012 (UTC)

Rob Gier
[edit]He does NOT play for Global FC!! Why don't you try finding a source which actually says he has made any appearances for the club! You won't find a any! Just as the way Philippine media say Gier's international teammate Jason de Jong has already Ayr United. Just because its been reported he "joined" the club, doesn't he actually has!

As for Ascot United's squad, [5] Gier is still on the list!! Banana Fingers (talk) 18:25, 25 March 2012 (UTC)
- There doesn't seem to be any reason to suggest he hasn't gone to the Philippines as reported in various sources as I have already explained. What part of that is difficult for you to understand? Where is any evidence that he's still at his former club other than a non-league squad list which may very well be out of date? Playerhistory and Soccerbase have nothing past 2008/09, National Football Teams has him at Global. Cloudz679 18:28, 25 March 2012 (UTC)
- Playerhistory and Soccerbase doesn't cover leagues such as the Hellenic Premier League! National-football-teams.com must've followed that report that he's supposedly signed for Global and then listed him as a Global FC player. By your logic that these stat websites don't have anything past 08-09, he's been unattached since 2009, which is obviously false! I could also reverse what you've said to me... What other evidence do you have that he actually plays for Global FC other than a report saying he's supposedly signed for them? Banana Fingers (talk) 18:42, 25 March 2012 (UTC)

Cyrus35334 tried to appeal the block saying it was his "cousins" account and that Slamdunk hated me and therefore vandalized my user page [6]. From past and even current comments, Cyrus3533 also hates me (I don't care at all if he does) which included racist comments. [7] (this was also in January). Sure, I've said some stuff as well, not just in this case but at the end of the day I don't do racist digs. That's just not cool. So, what do you think? Perhaps its his turn to taste being blocked? lol. Especially if this is a case of a sock puppet. I actually thought of this back then but didn't bother doing anything. But now, seems like a good idea to bring it up. Banana Fingers (talk) 20:11, 2 April 2012 (UTC)
Bahrain 10-0 Indonesia
[edit]OMG!! Kill me now!!!!! FFS!!!! You make it seem like the video I've provided is fan made or something like that! Here you go then, the FULL MATCH here!! I'm not making anything up!! I didn't pull any of those videos out my ass you know! Not only has FIFA messed up their match report in terms of the wrong scorer. They messed up the exact minute of the goal! If you watch the video, or at least go to the part where the goals were scored, everything is pretty much correct as per the match report EXCEPT Al Alawi's third goal which is erroneously listed as Abdul-Latif's and was scored in the 66th minute. Abdul-Latif did score in the 71st minute (needs to re-edited on the page) and there is no scorer in the 75th, which again, the report erroneously lists!! Funny thing as well is that, you love hiding behind WP:V yet I've just provided CLEAR evidence which quashes supposed accurate information from a supposed trusted site! WP:V is on my side this time, not yours! Banana Fingers (talk) 20:54, 3 April 2012 (UTC)
- LOL!!! You clearly are hiding behind WP:V!!! They way you hide behind it, is like some goody two-shoes. It's idiotic to say the least!! Youtube may not be a reliable source per say but like I've said, what I've provided isn't fan made or anything like that. It's the ACTUAL MATCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! If that can't be used to prove what actually is accurate in contrast to something which is supposedly accurate.... then Wikipedia is a farce... a massive one at that! And you're living in it! Banana Fingers (talk) 21:12, 3 April 2012 (UTC)
- And you don't think I know that?!?!?! ffs! However, clear video evidence should trump a report which is suppose to be accurate but has mistakes!! I'd provide you with other PUBLISHED sources but knowing you, you'd just hide behind, well, this is a FIFA match report and it is widely accepted.... and all that bs! Yes they're widely accepted but they're not perfect! And in this case I've just proven they're not yet I'm getting barred from correcting it! Banana Fingers (talk) 21:34, 3 April 2012 (UTC)

As you changed the relegation to a relegation play-off i guess you are into czech football? :) Soccerway lists two second leagues, looking back to last year, it seems only the ČŽFL is eligible for promotion, is that right? Or was there an additional play-off between both 2nd league winners last year? Before the winner played Pardubice? -Koppapa (talk) 07:50, 12 April 2012 (UTC)

Invitation to diacritics guideline discussion at WT:BLP | |
Hi, you were one of 100+ Users who has commented on a living person Requested Move featuring diacritics (e.g. the é in Beyoncé Knowles) in the last 30 days. Following closure of Talk:Stephane Huet RM, a tightening of BLP guidelines is proposed. Your contribution is invited to WT:BLP to discuss drafting a proposal for tightening BLP accuracy guidelines for names. In ictu oculi (talk) 00:04, 20 April 2012 (UTC) |
Feel free to duplicate this invite on the pages of others who have commented, for or against. In ictu oculi (talk) 00:08, 20 April 2012 (UTC)
- re Category:People from Kralupy nad Vltavou, sorry about the couple created in error while cleaning up BLP stubs, have fixed and noted that author requests either speedy rename or deletion. In ictu oculi (talk) 21:57, 24 April 2012 (UTC)
Transfers at Real Madrid Castilla
[edit]Transfers have never been included on football club pages for those clubs in the Primera División or the Segunda División; they are posted in a yearly Spanish transfer page, but they generally do not include transfers of lower level clubs in the Segunda División B unless the player is moving to/from higher level club. I have included such transfers on this page since I have joined and apparently, the experienced editors have not frowned on this practice. These transfers are from the Madrid site, Futbolme & Transfermarkt. I would gladly reference them. Raul17 (talk) 18:51, 26 April 2012 (UTC)
- Your statement is not true; there players that are on professional or amateur contracts. Merchán, Óscar Plano & Mandi have amateur contracts and the rest rest of the squad are pros: CASTILLA & JUVENIL A Raul17 (talk) 20:45, 26 April 2012 (UTC)
Your GA nomination of Leoš Janáček
[edit]The article Leoš Janáček you nominated as a good article has passed ; see Talk:Leoš Janáček for comments about the article. Well done! There is a backlog of articles waiting for review, why not help out and review a nominated article yourself?
Please note, I'm using a template and I don't favour the "There is a backlog of articles waiting for review, why not help out and review a nominated article yourself?" bit, so ignore it if you so choose. Pyrotec (talk) 22:15, 19 May 2012 (UTC)
Cloudz679, you are invited!
[edit]You're invited to be a part of Wikipedia:WikiProject University of Belgrade, an attempt to better organize information in articles related to the University of Belgrade. To accept this invitation, click here! Articles related to other universities in Belgrade, Serbia and Southeast Europe may be discussed as well. This helps share information and foster knowledge about higher education in the region. |
I was thinking you could add something about Czech universities, as we are seeking to share information. --Comparativist1 (talk) 19:19, 27 May 2012 (UTC)
Greetings Cloudz679. Seeing as you have some knowledge of Czech, can you confirm that Edgar Malakyan has signed a contract for Viktoria Plzeň or he's on trial and hasn't signed yet? Source. Thanks. – Kosm1fent 06:54, 15 June 2012 (UTC)
- Nothing about signing a contract, just that he is on a trial. Nothing official on the Plzen website either. Will be changing the Wikipedia article to reflect that. Cloudz679 10:49, 15 June 2012 (UTC)
- Thanks! I kind of suspected that, but with Google Translate you can never be sure. Cheers. – Kosm1fent 10:55, 15 June 2012 (UTC)

Hi. Can you restore article about football club of FK Dukla Banská Bystrica B please, this team is reserve team of the Corgoň Liga club FK Dukla Banská Bystrica. This team plays in Slovak 3. level - 3. liga.[1] 3. liga is a notable league. In reserve team - FK Dukla Banská Bystrica B, players also play with professional contracts as for example: Branislav Pindroch, Viktor Budinský and Patrik Johancsik[2] IQual13 13:28, 5 August 2012 (UTC)
Hey man... Debreceni VSC II is notable team for example also FC Dinamo II Bucureşti, so why not FK Dukla B Banská Bystrica ?

deletion of a page
[edit]About Lionel Messi career statistics. I also want to delete the page, but I don't know the template for removing the page. It was created after some statistics are deleted in the Messi main page, but later the stats were recovered, so the seperate stats page can be deleted. Maybe a speedy deletion is better. Ftj1357 (talk) 13:08, 13 October 2012 (UTC)
Hi Cloudz. I don't think this was 'vandalism'. People working on the article made a good work and this was just an innocent mistake, IMO. I have concerns over some claims in the article ("His political talent was suddenly put to use. Czech society appears to be in need of political leaders whom the voters have confidence in over the long term – particularly his integrity and his seriousness in the fight against corruption" for example) but the overall shape of the article is not bad. --Vejvančický (talk | contribs) 06:52, 22 October 2012 (UTC)
- You're right, taking another look, it's unlikely to have been vandalism, although it is strange to have a death place on a BLP. The article looks very POV but I would rather stay out of it completely! --Cloudz679 10:00, 22 October 2012 (UTC)

Michael Tayo
[edit]Might it not be better to search for references rather than blindly prodding articles? It took me five mins to find evidence that he played for Air India in the I-League, a simple google search provided match reports. Fenix down (talk) 17:43, 3 November 2012 (UTC)
- Rather than "blindly prodding articles" I actually went to the link on his page and found no usable information. Sure in theory five minutes is enough time to find (or not to find) info for a player, but if you read thousands of players' articles as I do, there is not time. Fortunately, in a display of true Wikipedia teamwork, you have restored the page to a usable condition. Well done. Cloudz679 17:48, 3 November 2012 (UTC)
Removing reference at Kris Trajanovski
[edit]Please don't assume bad faith. The reference you removed was not bad, the host of the website has reassigned the url. Hack (talk) 11:01, 4 November 2012 (UTC)
- None of the three references about his "three goals as a substitute in Australia's 16-0 win" are valid and according to the match report he scored four goals. I assume you will be taking care of that. Thank you. Cloudz679 11:08, 4 November 2012 (UTC)
- It appears in the PDF document published by the Football Federation Australia. The online status of the document is irrelevant. Hack (talk) 11:13, 4 November 2012 (UTC)
- Despite your approach not seeming to facilitate the improvement of this article, I have made some changes at the page in question. Perhaps if you spent more time working on the article and less time on my talk page, the article could benefit further. Cloudz679 11:28, 4 November 2012 (UTC)
- The sources don't agree with each other or with themselves. The official stats credit him with 10 career goals - four and three against Tahiti and three against Cook Islands. His OzFootball profile also credits him with 10 career goals. Hack (talk) 14:56, 4 November 2012 (UTC)

Re: Michael Tayo
[edit]Hello Cloudz. Hope your doing well. Yes Tayo played 1 season in the I-League with Air India back in 2008. I remember as I think he was the 2nd top scorer for Air India that season. Other than that he has mainly played in the I-League 2nd Division. Cheers.--Arsenalkid700 (talk) 13:44, 4 November 2012 (UTC)
Article assessment
[edit]Hello. I was wondering if your assessment of the article Frank Womack as low-importance at WP:Football was a slip of the finger? The article says he captained Birmingham for seven seasons in the English First Division and went on to manage Grimsby and Leicester also in the top division. I'd have thought that might warrant mid-importance? Keep up the good work, by the way: people willing to do the behind-the-scenes stuff don't always get the credit they deserve. cheers, Struway2 (talk) 16:05, 5 November 2012 (UTC)
- Yes, looks like it was... don't know how I missed that, especially since it's clear he won the second division! You're absolutely right, thanks for pointing that out and please let me know if there are any more. Usually when in doubt I leave the importance blank (seems to be quite subjective, anyway!) Thanks, Cloudz679 16:38, 5 November 2012 (UTC)
Thanks mate
[edit]Hey, forgot to thank you for helping me getting the India task force onto the WikiProject Template. You have no idea how much that means to me (Yes I take Wiki that seriously sometimes).

Nicole Wray's unreleased albums
[edit]Unreleased albums will be included since it is stated in the article. It is unfair that thousands of other wiki articles have valuable pieces of information like Nicole Wray and hers is excluded for whatever reason.
