Hi -- do you expect to be able to get to this soon? It's been five weeks now; if you are too busy, I suggest I fail this and when you have a chance to renominate, I'll look at it as soon as I can after that. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) 01:36, 5 February 2015 (UTC)
- I've gone ahead and failed it since it's been so long. I'd be happy to look at it quickly if you renominate it again, when you have time to work on it. Good luck with the article. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) 01:40, 11 February 2015 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of international youth squads page
Hi DavyK. Please can you come and weigh in with your opinion on the proposed deletion of 2013 AFC U-22 Championship squads at Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/2013_AFC_U-22_Championship_squads. It's likely to have an affect on the African equivalents in future (2011 African U-17 Championship squads was deleted in the past). TheBigJagielka (talk) 20:04, 22 February 2015 (UTC)

Hi there DAVY, from Portugal,
1 - "two years previous" exists in English language; 2 - we don't need to say "club" all the time, it's implied. But hey, don't worry, your version stays. I also apologize for reverting you without an explanatory summary, should have done that.

Speedy deletion nomination of 2015–16 in Kenyan football
Hello Davykamanzi,
I wanted to let you know that I just tagged 2015–16 in Kenyan football for deletion, because it appears to duplicate an existing Wikipedia article, [[{{{article}}}]].
If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.
You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Onel5969 (talk) 19:06, 11 April 2015 (UTC)

Messi–Ronaldo rivalry Page Move
I am a regular editor on Messi–Ronaldo rivalry and actually compiled a significant part of the initial article. Thanks for shortening the page name, but can I ask you what made you change the order of the names around? Shouldn't Ronaldo-Messi rivalry be easier to find since the original article was Cristiano Ronaldo - Lionel Messi rivalry? Thanks Imperial HRH2 (talk) 00:41, 4 May 2015 (UTC)
- @Imperial HRH2: I switched the order of the names because other such articles order the names in alphabetical order e.g. Djokovic–Nadal rivalry, Djokovic–Murray rivalry or Murray–Nadal rivalry in tennis. Davykamanzi → talk • contribs • alter ego 15:16, 6 May 2015 (UTC)

Pelé
Why does retired come before Brazilian? SLBedit (talk) 13:57, 14 July 2015 (UTC)
- @SLBedit: Basic English grammar. The order of adjectives in English:
- 1. Observation/opinion (e.g. retired, beautiful, etc.)
- 2. Size (e.g. big, small, etc.)
- 3. Shape (e.g. round, square, etc.)
- 4. Age (e.g. young, old, etc.)
- 5. Colour (e.g. red, blue, green, etc.)
- 6. Nationality (e.g. Brazilian, English, etc.)
- 7. Material (e.g. metallic, wooden, etc.)
- 8. Purpose/qualifier (e.g. passenger [seat], digital [camera], mobile [phone], etc.)
- Davykamanzi → talk • contribs • alter ego 16:56, 14 July 2015 (UTC)
- That's not "basic" English grammar because I have never read that. SLBedit (talk) 20:39, 14 July 2015 (UTC)
- @SLBedit: Well I learned that in primary school so I figured it's basic grammar. Davykamanzi → talk • contribs • alter ego 21:06, 14 July 2015 (UTC)
- I have checked a dictionary and several books, and none mention that. Thanks for the English lesson. SLBedit (talk) 21:18, 14 July 2015 (UTC)

Discontinued param
I'm not sure there was consensus for the {{infobox vg}} "discontinued" param... – czar 19:55, 25 July 2015 (UTC)
- @Czar: There wasn't, but I felt the need to add it for the sake of recently discontinued online games like FIFA World and Need for Speed: World and the confusion being caused by IP editors due to the lack of such information in the infobox, so I just went ahead and took the WP:BEBOLD route. Davykamanzi → talk • contribs • alter ego 20:23, 25 July 2015 (UTC)
- Be Bold isn't an override for no consensus, though. Anyway, we'll see if anyone else feels strongly about it. – czar 20:35, 25 July 2015 (UTC)
- Wasn't discussed, no consensus for it, remove the field. You are abusing the templateeditor capability. Darkwarriorblake / SEXY ACTION TALK PAGE! 22:29, 26 July 2015 (UTC)

Ojuelegba (Wizkid song)
Greetings Davykamanzi, I appreciate your contributions to the Ojuelegba (Wizkid song) article. I had to move the page back to its original title because Ojuelegba is a metropolitan subsection of Lagos mainland. There's also a song by Fela titled Ojuelegba. I left a hidden note in the edit mode, but I'm not sure you read it before deciding to make this change. This source should clear things up for you, regards.

Nicknames: no consensus for your edits
Hi, Dave. I have reverted your recent "nickname" edits to the Katie Ledecky and Missy Franklin articles. Contrary to popular misconception, there is not now, nor has there ever been a consensus that the Michael "Mike" Smith construction in the lead sentence of our bio articles is mandatory or even desirable in all cases. In many cases in which the nickname is a simple and commonly used diminutive of the subject's given name, including it in the bolded statement of the subject's full name is unnecessary, redundant, a little bit goofy, and insults the intelligence of our readers. Please review the recent MOS discussion @ Wikipedia talk:Manual of Style/Biographies. In fact, in the absence of a Wikipedia-wide standard, several WikiProjects, including those for golf and swimming have explicitly rejected the Michael "Mike" Smith construction as redundant, and have included a nickname parameter in the infobox for golfers and swimmers. Thanks. Dirtlawyer1 (talk) 22:32, 9 August 2015 (UTC)
Martin Hansen
Please do not add commentary or your own personal analysis to Wikipedia articles, as you did to Martin Hansen. Doing so violates Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy and breaches the formal tone expected in an encyclopedia. Thank you. GiantSnowman 08:11, 12 August 2015 (UTC)
Diagram
Hello, I like the look of the football field diagrams you've created. If I was to send you an image of a diagram from a book on Australian rules football, do you think you could create an svg version based on it and upload to Commons? The diagram is intended for the playing style and captaincy section of the Tom Wills article. It is my plan to eventually nominate it as a featured article, so I think the diagram needs to be up to scratch and I just don't have the talent for that. Cheers :) - HappyWaldo (talk) 13:15, 23 August 2015 (UTC)
- @HappyWaldo: Maybe I could, but I think I'd actually have to know something about Australian rules football to do the diagram justice, plus I don't really have the time at the moment, so I'm not sure whether I can do it. You could send me the image if you like, but I doubt I'll be able to recreate it in svg. Davykamanzi → talk • contribs • alter ego 19:53, 23 August 2015 (UTC)
- Don't worry, the diagram is fairly simple in design. Here it is. It depicts a tactical manoeuvre performed in 1860. Back then the sport (like other football games) was very primitive. Not many rules, no set field dimensions, no markings on the field like penalty areas and such, no set number of players. If you can create a version of it, one little detail to keep in would be the kick off posts (they are represented by much smaller posts either side of the goal posts). It may be difficult to read, but in the bottom right of the page is an arrow with the word "Kick". The bottom left is a measurement, but as I said, field size was very random back then, so it can be left out. Feel free to make the field green like on your association football diagrams. Cheers! - HappyWaldo (talk) 02:23, 24 August 2015 (UTC)
