Transfermarkt
[edit]Happy New Year. Just to let you know that you last edit to the Fulham season article is invalid as Transfermarkt is user generated content and not considered a Reliable source, so can't be used for transfer fees. This is also the consensus at WP:FOOTY. Any questions, let me know. JMHamo (talk) 18:59, 1 January 2015 (UTC)
Disambiguation link notification for January 4
[edit]Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited 2014–15 Fulham F.C. season, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Lee Evans. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

It's not just results (Reply)
[edit]Actually, that's not true. We're volunteers and we can add whatever we like as long as it's within policy. The Rambling Man (talk) 21:12, 19 August 2015 (UTC)
- Thank you The Rambling Man, I do believe I can edit a section in full but not all other sections. Skyblueshaun (talk) 21:18, 19 August 2015 (UTC)
- @The Rambling Man: and @Skyblueshaun:, without wishing to sound rude, what is the point of updating articles like that if not all of it is going to be done? It is like adding the winner to (say) 2015 Hungarian Grand Prix, but not the full race result. Spa-Franks (talk) 21:19, 19 August 2015 (UTC)
- We all do what we can. The Rambling Man (talk) 21:20, 19 August 2015 (UTC)
- @Spa-Franks:, That is not true, You can add all off one section like I edited all of 2015–16_Fulham_F.C._season#Championship section, but as Wikipedia volunteers we do not have to edit all sections. Skyblueshaun (talk) 21:22, 19 August 2015 (UTC)
- In the case of the latest result for the 2015–16 Sheffield Wednesday F.C. season you only included the goalscorers and the attendance. When you update it could you please include any bookings and dismissals as well because they are also included in the round by round results list - Coradia175 (talk) 21:59, 19 August 2015 (UTC)
- Yellow cards are NOT A MUST DO in match summaries. Skyblueshaun (talk) 15:42, 28 August 2015 (UTC)
- There was absolutely no need for the bold capital letters. I was only politely asking you to include bookings and sendings off considering the vast majority of match summaries I have seen actually do include them - Coradia175 (talk) 17:51, 28 August 2015 (UTC)
A barnstar for you! (reply)
[edit]Thanks very much for the barnstar!
You're extremely welcome for the back up. I'm pleased to see that editors are co-operating to keep the football team season pages up to date because I think that they're really useful resources - but I do agree with your point. I don't think it's very fair to just do the results and leave other editors to update the statistics which are generally much more time consuming. I always read the match reports in detail to make sure that all of the statistics categories are updated accurately and it does take a bit of time!
Best wishes - Coradia175 (talk) 22:41, 28 August 2015 (UTC)

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page. For the Election committee, MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 14:23, 24 November 2015 (UTC)
Alguersuari
[edit]I'm sure you know that Twitter and Instagram are usually very poor sources indeed. You're treating this as cast-iron fact when nobody really seems to know whether it's true or a joke. You added it to Buettler's article with no source whatsoever, and then reverted me saying you fail to see how it's unsourced. Well, not adding a source for your edit makes it unsourced. Hope that's clear. Now you've added Twitter and Instagram sources there as well and I don't think it's sufficiently reliable. I've sought assistance here [1]; maybe you should weigh in. My personal opinion is that you're being premature and this should wait for a clearer confirmation from a more reliable source, given that this is an encyclopedia. Bretonbanquet (talk) 16:47, 28 February 2016 (UTC)
- You've also claimed that Beuttler was "openly gay", which he wasn't, and that he publicly announced his homosexuality, which he didn't. The existing sources do make that clear. Bretonbanquet (talk) 16:55, 28 February 2016 (UTC)
WikiProject Eurovision: Important Announcement
[edit]| WikiProject Eurovision Important Announcement
 Dear Project Member Following a project community discussion, which was raised over the use of English translation columns on annual contest articles, and advice from the lead coordinator of The Guild of Copy Editors, who are extremely knowledgeable in regards to all editing practises and manual of style policies. A consensus decision has been reached to fully remove ALL English translations, as such content falls under the prohibition on original research, even if it seems helpful to the reader. This is because we have now to assume that every reader has access to automated translation tools that can always give them a sense of the meaning of the title in their native language; it is not Wikipedia's job to provide those tools for the reader. Which therefore means we are no longer to include an English translation column, nor are we to provide translation by any other means on contest articles. Such information is currently in the process of being removed, and a new table formatting and layout style is being rolled out across all articles. Please view the new guidance on table layout at Wikipedia:WikiProject Eurovision/Format and Guides#Article layout. An example of the new table layout style can also be access via the collapsed section within this message. Thank you. |

Hello, I'm TylerBurden. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Nico Rosberg, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Especially important on WP:BLP's and good articles where much work has gone into making sure everything is referenced.
