List of Gillingham F.C. players (1–24 appearances)

Nominator(s): ChrisTheDude (talk) 21:51, 31 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

With the 25-49 appearances list now having two supports and no outstanding issues, I now bring this here to complete the trinity. I have incorporated all the feedback from that FLC into this list too..... -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 21:51, 31 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Addressed comments from - Yellow Dingo (talk) 06:33, 7 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

"2016–17 season" → "2016–17 season" per WP:EASTEREGG
Work in ref 6 should link to BBC Sport
Unlink work in ref 8 as cricinfo is already linked in ref 7 per WP:OVERLINK

— Great list and I'm happy to support and have left a few comments that can be implemented if you see fit. - Yellow Dingo (talk) 06:28, 6 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Done all those -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 08:04, 6 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Threeohsix:, @Lemonade51:, @NapHit:, you guys all commented on the 25-49 list, any thoughts on this one.....? -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 07:52, 17 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose. Sorry, but I've got to oppose on criterion 5a. No-one's ever satisfactorily explained to me why this comes under Visual appeal, but the criterion requires that "a minimal proportion of items are redlinked". There are roughly 175 redlinks, which is approaching a third of the notable players, and more than 20% of the list as a whole; I can't see that as a minimal proportion. I've added a few comments below. cheers, Struway2 (talk) 09:52, 24 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

there are one or two rows missing their row scopes (Osadebe, List, possibly others)
Osadebe's Soccerbase ref belongs to someone else
It doesn't seem to say anywhere what the source(s) are for career years or nationality.
As you've included nationality for all the players, rather than just those who played international football, are you defining it as their nationality at the time they were at Gillingham, or their current/latest nationality?

Unfortunately, while I could probably fix the other items quite easily, I just don't have the available time at the moment to create new articles on over 100 players, so I think this one will have to be chalked up to experience, sadly........ -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 10:18, 24 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
