== Stadium of Light ==

Hi, I'm messaging you here because I saw the [[:Image:OldTraffordPlan.PNG|image]] you made of Old Trafford and was wondering if you could make a similar one of the Stadium of Light. The design of the stadium is [http://www.safc.com/tickets/?page_id=12682 here] but I lack the skills to create the image. Cheers. [[User:Sunderland06|<span style="color:red;">'''Sunderland06'''</span>]] ([[User talk:Sunderland06|talk]]) 12:06, 13 December 2008 (UTC)
:Ah ok, cheers. [[User:Sunderland06|<span style="color:red;">'''Sunderland06'''</span>]] ([[User talk:Sunderland06|talk]]) 13:14, 13 December 2008 (UTC)
::It looks good, but perhaps if there was anything I would change, it would be the lower tier, to make it into a single block without the gap, because although there is a gap its counted as just one tier. Also, the extended part of the West Stand is called the Premier Concourse. Cheers a lot. :) [[User:Sunderland06|<span style="color:red;">'''Sunderland06'''</span>]] ([[User talk:Sunderland06|talk]]) 20:58, 15 December 2008 (UTC)
:::Maybe you could fit the stand names in if you had North Stand, South Stand, West Stand and East Stand inside the according stands, instead of round the outside, and just having the Kronenburg Upper and Premier Concourse on the outside, with the lower tier being merged, it'd make a little bit more space for them to fit inside, but your choice.

Hi, I've left a comment at the Stadium of Light peer review about the stands. The bottom tier stands are named North, South, East and West. The upper stands are called Kronenburg upper (which is the higher tier of the North stand) and the Premier Concourse (on top of the west stand). Hope this clears it up a little bit. Tah. [[User:Sunderland06|<span style="color:red;">'''Sunderland06'''</span>]] ([[User talk:Sunderland06|talk]]) 22:29, 15 December 2008 (UTC)
:All that needs changing on the image, is the text Kronenburg Stand into "North Stand" and to remove the "Home end" part from the north stand and it'll be accurate.

== Sub-categories of football competitions ==

Hi,

I really don't think it's necessary to include the various World Cup articles directly in [[:Category:FIFA competitions]] as well as in the sub-categories. [[Wikipedia:Categorization#How to categorize an article|Articles should only be placed in the most specific categories they fit in]]. For that reason I think the additional cat should be removed from [[FIFA U-20 World Cup]]. Peanut has already removed it from [[FIFA World Cup]].

== Bradford City players ==

Hey PeeJay, the 'first team appearance' really refers to past players, not current squad members who have (yet) to make a league appearance...hope this helps! Cheers, [[User:GiantSnowman|Giant]][[User talk:GiantSnowman|Snowman]] 19:19, 15 December 2008 (UTC)
== Cristiano Ronaldo ==

You need to keep a close eye.  According to [http://soccernet.espn.go.com/news/story?id=603172&sec=england&cc=5901 ESPN Soccernet], Cristiano Ronaldo might be headed to [[Real Madrid CF|Real Madrid]] next summer.

This is the only route that the teams in the Round of 32 can now follow, for example if Manchester City were to win their game against FC Copenhagen they would play the winner of the match between Aalborg and Deportivo and so on.  <span style="font-size: smaller;" class="autosigned">—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/86.145.164.96|86.145.164.96]] ([[User talk:86.145.164.96|talk]]) 17:38, 19 December 2008 (UTC)</span><!-- Template:UnsignedIP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

== Unknown United players known? ==

At MUFCInfo.com, I found a few first names for some of the unknown players.  
* G. Felton seems to be named [http://www.mufcinfo.com/manupag/a-z_player_archive/a-z_player_archive_pages/felton_george.html George Felton]
* G. Foley is [http://www.mufcinfo.com/manupag/a-z_player_archive/a-z_player_archive_pages/foley_george.html George Foley]
* Rattigan is [http://www.mufcinfo.com/manupag/a-z_player_archive/a-z_player_archive_pages/rattigan_william.html William Rattigan]
* F. Sawyer is [http://www.mufcinfo.com/manupag/a-z_player_archive/a-z_player_archive_pages/sawyer_thomas.html Thomas Sawyer] (A F and a T might be confused and they both made their first appearance at the same match)
* J. Sneddon is [http://www.mufcinfo.com/manupag/a-z_player_archive/a-z_player_archive_pages/sneddon_john.html John Sneddon]
I know Stretford End doesn't have all this information, but could these players be some of the ones that are missing?  Thanks!  [[User:Patken4|Patken4]] ([[User talk:Patken4|talk]]) 18:20, 19 December 2008 (UTC)
:It's certainly quite likely that those names are correct, but I would be curious to find out where MUFCInfo.com got their info from. Not saying they're incorrect, but it would be prudent to check sources first. – [[User:PeeJay2K3|Pee]][[User talk:PeeJay2K3|Jay]] 18:23, 19 December 2008 (UTC)

::::I got a reply already!  The site gets their information from books, programmes, their own knowledge, matches, other people.  A variety of places.  Thanks.  [[User:Patken4|Patken4]] ([[User talk:Patken4|talk]]) 19:38, 19 December 2008 (UTC)
:::::See, the bits I'm worried about are the "their own knowledge" and "other people" bits. If this specific information can be attributed to books/match programmes/official media, then that's fair enough, but I wouldn't deem their own knowledge to be a reliable source. Can we get clarification about the sources for these specific names? – [[User:PeeJay2K3|Pee]][[User talk:PeeJay2K3|Jay]] 19:41, 19 December 2008 (UTC)

Dude, when Diarra completes his move to Real Madrid, how much will the fee be? – [[User:Mikemor92|Michael]] ([[User talk:Mikemor92|talk]]) 02:43, 18 December 2008 (UTC)
:Since he's going to have 'Lass' on the back of his jersey, should I put that on the transfer list instead of Lassana Diarra? – [[User:Mikemor92|Michael]] ([[User talk:Mikemor92|talk]]) 14:06, 22 December 2008 (UTC)
::I thought not, because if I actually put that on there, that would make me think I'm putting his girlfriends name on there. – [[User:Mikemor92|Michael]] ([[User talk:Mikemor92|talk]]) 14:22, 22 December 2008 (UTC)

== Thanks for the Barnstar! ==

Thanks for the Barnstar Award!  When I get a response about the five potentially known players, I'll let you know the answer.  I guess the only other potential player at this point is perhaps the James Cairns.  Thanks again!  [[User:Patken4|Patken4]] ([[User talk:Patken4|talk]]) 21:40, 20 December 2008 (UTC)

== [[Zoran Tošić]] ==

== Re: Blackpool F.C. season articles ==

Doesn't really bother me. I'd prefer to look for a season in a continuous list, rather than one that was interrupted by headings, but it's not a deal-breaker.

Please stop for reverting. Please check the draw result after 2005–06. All matches, including Qualifying rounds and the knockout stages, are ordered by draw order.

== Gary Neville ==

Hi! Left a message over at [[Talk:Gary Neville]], maybe you could read and leave your thoughts. Can't be 100% sure if he got a medal or not, so might be wrong to add 2008 CL to his honours section, but maybe it could be equally wrong to leave it out. Few other players in the same boat as him. Seems like the sort of think we can't really ever find out for definite unfortunately. [[User:Derry Boi|Derry Boi]] ([[User talk:Derry Boi|talk]]) 16:45, 27 December 2008 (UTC)

Why did you remove my contribution to that article? I know it's "unnecessary", but its OK, I mean it doesn't bother or harm anyone or something like that, so why remove it? If its only "unnecessary" - well, I think every second article in Wikipedia is '''unnecessary''', and we keep them.

== Jimmy Murphy (footballer) ==

I've expanded the [[Jimmy Murphy (footballer)]] article a bit and added his WBA playing stats. I've made a couple of corrections (his place of birth and when he joined Albion) so if these conflict with your sources please let me know and we can discuss and maybe footnote if necessary. 

I noticed you changed his DoB from 27 October 1910 to 8 August 1910. My WBA-based sources have his DoB as 27 October 1910 though, so I was wondering where you got this info from? Cheers. --[[User:Jameboy|Jameboy]] ([[User talk:Jameboy|talk]]) 15:42, 1 January 2009 (UTC)

== Tevez loan ==

I noticed you removed my cited loan, on the Tevez article, saying "it is not a loan. you cannot be on loan from a company". Please note that football clubs are companys, and while not on loan from West Ham he is on from [[Kia Joorabchian]] (MSI). You can be on loan from companys per all these [[WP:RS|reliable sources]]. [http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/2316634/Parry-calls-for-loan-ban-after-Tevez-affair.html][http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/2007/aug/04/newsstory.manchesterunited][http://www.manutd.com/default.sps?newsid=441906&pagegid=%7BC7DF7CEC-3BC3-4859-A3FD-FE4AAD215DD8%7D] And more recently (this week) [http://www.independent.co.uk/sport/football/transfers/transfer-window-prices-high-as-football-refuses-to-be-crunched-1219942.html][http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/eng_prem/7785570.stm][http://www.google.com/hostednews/afp/article/ALeqM5iAVprqYV-saNKalT-99zwZ2NhgOQ].

== Sorting and linking of dates ==

Hi PeeJay, I noticed that you relinked dates in the English football transfers articles, citing the fact that they need to be linked for the sorting to work. I understand your concern; I implemented dates that are sorted ''and'' unlinked into [[List of English football transfers winter 2008–09]] using the {{tl|dts}} template. Could I ask you to consider doing the same for [[List of English football transfers summer 2008]]? Thanks, [[User:Dabomb87|Dabomb87]] ([[User talk:Dabomb87|talk]]) 16:01, 3 January 2009 (UTC)

== CL 2008 Edits ==

1. a lot of material was not relevant ot the match (and hence the article). 'reactions' was an open ended section that drifted off into things that had nothing to do with the match. this is an article on the 2008 final, not the whole 2008 CL, the city of moscow, or what arsene wenger, capello or joe bloggs said about the result.
2. the road to the final is given in the CL 07/08 article itself. extensively.
3. the intro needed tidying - how is the teams that play at the Luzniki stadium relevant to the match and the article?

i've explained most of the edits briefly, please use the talk page to discuss further.

[[User:Jw2035|Jw2035]] ([[User talk:Jw2035|talk]]) 21:43, 2 January 2009 (UTC)

:When writing an article, the writer should assume that the reader knows nothing of the subject. Obviously, in this case, this doesn't mean explaining what football is, what the Champions League is, etc., but it should require a short explanation of how the teams got to the final, a short piece about the match itself (as a concept) and its marketing/branding, and the aftermath with respect to the two teams. That is what we have at 2008 UEFA Champions League Final, and I think it's rather well done. It could do with a little trimming in the "Road to the final" section, but other than that, I believe you went a bit OVER THE TOP with your edits. – PeeJay 21:47, 2 January 2009 (UTC)

::explanaton of how the teams got there is in the CL 07/08 article. the match summary is unaltered and ok. 'aftermath' is too open ended - you could have reactions from everyone and anyone; look at articles on european cup finals from 20 years ago - do they record the reactions of minor journos, managers who werent even there, etc.. no they don't. quotes from the managers present, players, etc. may have a place here, but it's scope should be strictly limited - what was there simply rambled! it is not necessary to explain what the champions league is, where the logo came from (that's not a new thing btw), who plays at the ground, what a coincidence everthign is, who roman abramovich is and where he comes from, etc...see my point! [[User:Jw2035|Jw2035]] ([[User talk:Jw2035|talk]]) 21:53, 2 January 2009 (UTC)

besides, using the last 20 years worth of finals as a template, i could have justifiably pruned 2008, 2007, 2006 and 2005 down to along the lines of [[2002 UEFA Champions League Final|2002]], [[2001 UEFA Champions League Final|2001]], [[2000 UEFA Champions League Final|2000]] and so on. one paragraph, match summary and the teams is all that is really required [[User:Jw2035|Jw2035]] ([[User talk:Jw2035|talk]]) 22:00, 2 January 2009 (UTC)

yes, 2007 was a featured article. and guess what? no 'reactions' or 'aftermath' ramble. route to the final is a paragraph and a table. sectioned match summary. no cruft about who plays where, 'coincidences' or what abramovich had for breakfast. read the article and then have a look at my edits - i've brought the 05 and 08 articles far closer to the format of the 07 article and removed an awful lot of unnecessary and irrelevant trivia. please do not revert again without using the talk page [[User:Jw2035|Jw2035]] ([[User talk:Jw2035|talk]]) 13:51, 3 January 2009 (UTC)

look, i'm sure you've worked very had on these articles, adding fascinating lists of 'coincidences', 'reactions', 'quotes from wenger' 'what abramovich thinks' etc... but I'm working to the featured article 2007 which has none of this. this is not your pet page. either edit constructively or i'll just keep reverting [[User:Jw2035|Jw2035]] ([[User talk:Jw2035|talk]]) 17:29, 3 January 2009 (UTC)

just because 2 other people also disagree doesnt make the article any less crappy with the above elements. the others have been willing to discuss the final articles - you have simply reverted, often without explanation. [[User:Jw2035|Jw2035]] ([[User talk:Jw2035|talk]]) 17:41, 3 January 2009 (UTC)

well, happily, wikipedia has a history page and i've even taken the trouble to number the edits. all are perfectly justifiable. you are simply protecting 'your article' now. either be civil, be constructive or find somethign else to work on [[User:Jw2035|Jw2035]] ([[User talk:Jw2035|talk]]) 18:52, 3 January 2009 (UTC)

a)...

b) The transfer takes place within the territory of the European
Union (EU) or European Economic Area (EEA) and the player
is aged between 16 and 18. In this case, the new club must fulfi l
the following minimum obligations:

i) It shall provide the player with an adequate football education
and/or training in line with the highest national standards.

ii) It shall guarantee the player an academic and/or school and/or
vocational education and/or training, in addition to his football
education and/or training, which will allow the player to pursue
a career other than football should he cease playing professional
football.

iii) It shall make all necessary arrangements to ensure that
the player is looked after in the best possible way (optimum
living standards with a host family or in club accommodation,
appointment of a mentor at the club, etc.).

iv) It shall, on registration of such a player, provide the
relevant association with proof that it is complying with the
aforementioned obligations;

Without reading all the United sections again I can't be sure, but I don't think it has anything more. When I am king all non-fiction books will have indexes. I was a little surprised it has an article, but given its use as a rugby league ground combined with its use by United I don't object. The most likely book to have more information will be Simon Inglis' ''Played In Manchester''.

Hi PeeJay, I was wondering whether you had any ideas about how to cleanup the season articles for the Premier League because at the moment they seem to follow completely different standards. For example, some give season summaries for each of the teams (but in some cases, as for [[FA Premier League 2002-03#Arsenal|the review for Arsenal]] in 2002-03, they are much longer than all the others and Charlton do not even have a one line review). Some give statistics and others don't, the leads are of completely different lengths etc. I added the rest of the results for the 2002-03 article and feel this needs to be done for all the other articles. What are your ideas? Cheers. [[User:03md|03md]] ([[User talk:03md|talk]]) 19:14, 12 January 2009 (UTC)

[[User:Melinywig|Melinywig]] ([[User talk:Melinywig|talk]]) 20:32, 14 January 2009 (UTC)

If you can prove to me, by your OED, that stadium comes from latin and only latin then i shall concede to your "stadia"
My 1974 OED and everyone i've asked agrees with me, some of them studying latin.
i know people get confused about words from latin like some saying "a bacteria" when they mean "a bacterium" but i am not one of them.
[[User:Melinywig|Melinywig]] ([[User talk:Melinywig|talk]]) 22:15, 15 January 2009 (UTC)

Then My argument stands tall. Greek works adopted into Latin do not decline the same way in Latin as normal Latin words.
The word is Greek and therefore the plural is stadiums.
[[User:Melinywig|Melinywig]] ([[User talk:Melinywig|talk]]) 22:17, 15 January 2009 (UTC)

Have you ever considered that the word isn't second declesion Latin? In fact if it is a borrowed word it is more likely to be a masculine word in the third declension and therefore will not decline stadium/-um/-i/-o/-i/-a/-a/-orum/-is/-is. (Yeah i know my Latin)
Besides what you said is that the word is Greek so we have borrowed it from Greek and therefore it pluralises in the way we want it to, which is usually by adding an "s".
[[User:Melinywig|Melinywig]] ([[User talk:Melinywig|talk]]) 22:27, 15 January 2009 (UTC)

But it isn't tradition to do pluralise that way. If the word is from Latin then and only then should it pluralise the way you think it does. The word is Greek and therefore does not pluralise like a Latin word.

== [[Munich air disaster]] ==

Hey, looking at the article, it looks like all of the points have been taken care of except for one I made about Cantona; the sentence: "From then on, it seemed to some that the match had ceased to be primarily a tribute to the Busby Babes and more about Cantona." - is a very bold assertion by an encyclopaedia. I think it needs to become "...was criticised by the press as ceasing being primarily a tribute to the Busby Babes, and more a testimonial to Cantona." This would need to be sourced, I'm going to assume that source 52 covers it. It's one of those which seems obvious to those of us who actually follow English football, but needs some external verification for [[WP:OR]] grounds. I also want to say thta I'm not looking at the article on prose grounds, as I consider that my weak point, so you may want to ask for some feedback on readability etc. from those experienced in the area of FAs.

== Disruptive editor ==

Hi there PEEJAY, VASCO from Portugal here,

Just witnessed your "interactions" with [[User:Bruninho]], which led to an exhaustive revert battle in [[Gerard Piqué]]'s article. Well, let me tell you a little story about this "user" (contributions here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/Bruninho):

His former user name is [[User:Bruno P.Dori]], who had the following editing habits: 99,99999999999% percent of his "contributions" (seen here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/Bruno_P._Dori) consist in players connected past or present with [[FC Barcelona]]. Also, he has the habit of overusing caps in infoboxes and enlarging them needlessly (Piqué is a good example, but others such as [[Sergio Busquets]], a page which had to be protected due to his continuous disruptions (see here http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Sergi_Busquets&diff=260741413&oldid=260737132), [[Sergio García de la Fuente]] or [[Damià Abella]], also formerly at BARCELONA, are also good options).

He writes no edit summaries, and does not respond to messages, as you very well know by now, and as Piqué is a shining example (i have had my share with him as well), if you revert something 5 times he will revert it 6, without any interactions whatsoever. Well, as i was saying, the account BRUNO P.DORI was finally blocked (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Bruno_P._Dori) and now he has this one, BRUNINHO. Charming, eh?

Another good tip may be this, which i already presented, without any success, at several reports pages (WP/ANI, WPFOOTY, etc): i have found over 40 different IP for this "user" so far, of which i now present to you the registered ones: (Sockpuppets - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Suspected_Wikipedia_sockpuppets_of_Bruno_P._Dori), some of those and new ones can be found at [[Antonio Longás]] and [[Albert Jorquera]] (see? BARCELONA players at some point), two articles that also had to be protected. Also in LONGÁS' article, he proves his disruption patterns: in "current club", he writes one thing, in last club in infobox, which is also current, he writes a different name, and if someone dares to revert it, he re-reverts it how many times necessary. This not to mention the enormous "CENTRAL MIDFIELDER / ATTACKING MIDFIELDER" in player position...

Make no mistake, this guy is not willing to work as a team and has endless ways to evade a block, he will not engage in any dialogue...Pityful.

Also regarding PIQUÉ's article, i saw that you removed the FC's in infobox, which led to my commenting (there, but also now) i do not understand (i have seen it in various articles) why is it a problem to display those two letters when they take up absolutely no space at all?

P.S. Incredible!!!! Visited now PIQUÉ's article, before clicking "save page" here, and BRUNINHO, anonymously, has already reverted your actions (the chart you keep removing and infobox with caps). See what i mean?

Keep up the good work mate, have a nice week,

Hi PeeJay - I've been attempting to write a merged 'England v Argetnina (1986)' article and I can't for the life of me work out why the line-up section won't go into two columns. I was trying to create a system whereby I could generate an 'edit conflict' so that I could compare the wikicode to see where I've gone wrong. Hence having to make a couple of minor changes (Match details > match detailsx) so I could generate the change.

== How can something vital be of mid importance? ==

Hi, I have seen your remark on my talk. I think this will be a challenge for this particular project. In my opinion, this project aims at the whole of Wikipedia (i.e. no specific project); and within Wikipedia aims at improving the articles of utmost importance (top 100, 1000, or 10000). Hence, in my view, compared to normal standard in Wikipedia, this project tags only articles that are of High (or even more) importance to Wikipedia as a whole. 

I agree this is a tricky position, but I stand by it. I would not mind if in this difficult light, the importance label was not used in this specific project (as it is not in many other project). [[User:Arnoutf|Arnoutf]] ([[User talk:Arnoutf|talk]]) 22:44, 1 February 2009 (UTC)

== Gerard Piqué ==

Hi there PEEJAY, VASCO here,

In the [[Gerard Piqué|article mentioned in title]], i am sorry if i occurred, inadvertently, in an edit war. It was me who did last edits, anonymously (sometimes i don't log in, just enter WIKI and "edit away"), and hope this is only a misunderdstanding.

In my view, a "winning goal" is a/the goal that is decisive in that given moment, and PIQUÉ's was not (it was, as i wrote in edit summary, the 3-0). Or in that case, as ''Barça'' scored 3, then all of them were winners, not just his.

Since i respect your work, i will not revert it anymore (except for the wikilinks i provided and were removed when you, possibly, clicked "undo"), rest assured i am no vandal like BRUNINHO, with his endless IP addresses.

Take care, have a nice week, from PORTUGAL,

== Disruptive editor ==

Hi there PEEJAY, VASCO here,

I bring to you a highly disruptive editor, anonymous IP 92.4.253.48  ("contributions" here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/92.4.253.48). I checked, out of sheer hazard [[Bruno Alves]]' article and, there it was: POV/WEASEL, but the most important, this person inserts info that is not true, at all. For instance, it says there that he bought the club [[Varzim Sport Club]] alongside his brother and bought [[João Vieira Pinto]] (38 years old) out of retirement. By the way, if you check ALVES brother's article, [[Geraldo Alves]], you will see that my anonymous IP removed a lot of info, which was full of the three things i duly acuse him of (POV/WEASEL/LIES), you will see it says ("said") in "PERSONAL LIFE" that he is married to actress [[Lúcia Moniz]] and they have two sons, one named BRUNO to honour his brother. What a load of rubbish!! I checked several sites on this singer/actress, and it is not true.

Also, and in another striking pattern of this person's obsession, he also inserted that former players João Pinto (already mentioned in this message, above) and [[Ricardo Sá Pinto]] (both retired) now play for Varzim (also mentioned above)...LIE!!! I mentioned pattern because the ALVES brothers were born in that city ([[Póvoa de Varzim]]) and began playing football at that club. He also operates with many, many IP, and also gave me a hard time with [[Arnaldo Edi Lopes da Silva]] and [[Juanfran]] (both AEK players, as GERALDO ALVES, more patterns).

I hope something can be done, cheers and keep up the good work,

== Request ==

Hi there PEEJAY, VASCO here,

sorry for keeping bothering you, but here is a request (i would not if i knew how to handle things myself, i like teamwork and, besides, i think i already told you i don't have whole of a lot of luck in my reports to WP/ANI, they are pretty much ignored or scolded, even after i registered):

Could you please (or if you don't want or don't have that ability please tip someone or tell me how to do it), block some more of BRUNO P.DORI aka BRUNINHO lots of other anonymous IP that have surfaced? He keeps engaging in infobox wars (nearly, if not, 100% of his editing space) and writing no summaries or messages. Most of those new IP can be found at [[Albert Jorquera]], [[Antonio Longás]], [[Sergio Busquets]] and, as you already had the painful experience of knowing, [[Gerard Piqué]].

Also, could you add those new addresses to the list of sockpuppets? Last time i checked it contained 26 and, almost 1 month after, still 26, when he has nearly 40 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Suspected_Wikipedia_sockpuppets_of_Bruno_P._Dori)

Thank you very much in advance, and please note again i am only asking this favour because i do not know how to proceed with those things myself,

*Sorry indeed, i guess i really did bother you with my request. I guess you could at least have told me how to deal with it myself (i.e. add the anonymous IP to the sockpuppet list), but i guess the lack of feedback means i am being a nuisance, when all i really want is to stop that idiot vandal in its tracks, and i guess he has given you enough proof of how he can be in PIQUÉ's article (by the way, if i sometimes seemed a bit rude and "not-compelling" in my edit summaries in there, i apologize) but, if i am not getting any teamwork here (and it has happened with other folks too, don't know what i doing wrong - am i writing in poor English, am i being unpolite?), i'll leave that vandal (BRUNINHO, BRUNO P.DORI and approximately 50 IP) be, he is sick and the head and does not deserve any attention, the only thing he does merit is having his IPs blocked on sight, one after one, until he quits, but...I guess living in [[Brazil]] does have its wiki-advantages.

Hi there PEEJAY, VASCO here,

Sorry if my reaction seemed to be a little odd (in the sorts of "nobody likes me, what shall i do?"), it's just vandals like this really get me going, and i see nothing seems to stop him (so far).

I also hope i am not putting any extra "pressure" on you with all these requests, everybody (well, not everybody if you count BRUNINHO ;)) does the best they can, just "wiki-whistle" if you need anything i can help you with.

In the FA Cup, all of the rounds after the qualifying rounds (with the exception of the Semi-finals and Final), follow the form "[Ordinal] Round Proper", as you can see [http://www.thefa.com/TheFACup/TheFACup/NewsAndFeatures/Postings/2008/06/FACrounddates_0809.htm here]. – [[User:PeeJay2K3|Pee]][[User talk:PeeJay2K3|Jay]] 00:25, 11 February 2009 (UTC)

This may be the convention on the FA website, but this is not the standard convention for other types of competition which contain qualifying rounds on Wikipedia. see [[World Snooker Championship 2008]] also the word proper is not necessary in this context as it ads nothing to the explanation please see other national football competitions for the way this dealt with.--[[User:Lucy-marie|Lucy-marie]] ([[User talk:Lucy-marie#top|talk]]) 00:35, 11 February 2009 (UTC)

This is not the FA and standardisation among articles on Wikipedia  under the same subject matter: in this case national association football competitions should be achieved, otherwise confusions results when trying to compare different competitions.

Because it is unnecessary as the qualifying rounds identify themselves with the word qualifying, simply having first round after the qualifying rounds have been completed creates no confusion, whereas what does the word proper actually mean, is there an improper first round that also occurs? Also it is not in line with other association football articles on knock out competitions please see [[UEFA CUP]] as an example.--[[User:Lucy-marie|Lucy-marie]] ([[User talk:Lucy-marie#top|talk]]) 00:52, 11 February 2009 (UTC)

:Each competition season article uses the round-naming scheme as defined by the competition organisers, e.g. the FA for the FA Cup or UEFA for the Champions League. Furthermore, every FA Cup article uses the same round-naming scheme, so by changing the 2008-09 FA Cup article, you are creating inconsistencies yourself. – [[User:PeeJay2K3|Pee]][[User talk:PeeJay2K3|Jay]] 01:00, 11 February 2009 (UTC)

== (NEW)Football vandal ==

Hi there PEEJAY, VASCO here,

Being this a football "user" and you a member of "the force": Check out this new contributor, JESSEMON111 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/Jessemon111), he logged in today. Incredibly, while most vandals seem to almost exclusively edit anonymously, this idiot (don't fret, i know where i'm heading) went through the trouble of registering to write foul language, lies, the whole ordeal. 

Here's an example (http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Salvador_Ballesta&diff=prev&oldid=269917615), hope he can be put offside. By the way, that BRUNINHO and his endless IP show no signs of slowing down, i have received advice that sometimes, it's better to just stay put a little bit, ignore the vandal, let them bore themselves out, and then arrange what's to be arranged.

Well I think it would cause confusion if someone is listed as a winner of a national title without playing for a national team. I would think being part of a World Cup squad or a Copa America or Euro even if you don't play somehow should show up in a players infobox, just because there are probably a few examples of players (especially in bigger footballing countries) who never get capped but still is part of a World Cup squad, perhaps even winning it. &mdash; [[User:Chandler|<small>CHAN</small>]][[User talk:Chandler|<small>DLER</small>]][[Special:Contributions/Chandler|<sup>#10</sup>]] &mdash; 22:38, 16 February 2009 (UTC)

== Sympathy ==

Hi there PEEJAY, VASCO here,

I just heard the sad news that you received a minor block, regarding the edit war on [[Gerard Piqué]]. I understood the point of view of the person who blocked (KEVIN), stating that it takes two to edit-war and you were as much a culprit as the vandal (by the way, i already "info'ed" Kevin about the dirty deeds of BRUNINHO aka whatever).

I said i understood the blocker's reasoning, but i also think a person who engages in on-sight revertings, as much as needed, without answering to a single message or writing one edit summary whatsoever, so i am on your side in this issue, hope it turns out well for you mate, not for the vandal. Kevin also said he thinks edit wars over one single word (Centre back, Centre Back) are not worth it, i also understand the logic, but take a look at this example in which the vandal does not limit his infobox enlargements to "just one word": (http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Oscar_L%C3%B3pez_Hern%C3%A1ndez&diff=269404297&oldid=268728923); sometimes it seems as if it's done on purpose...

By the way, his anon IP account is reaching obscene levels (i also tipped KEVIN about this), and i don't know if this any end in sight...(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Suspected_Wikipedia_sockpuppets_of_Bruno_P._Dori)

Cheers, keep up the good work, keep (as i) fighting vandals (especially mute ones),

== Flags ==

You know, I'm pretty certain that the flags-in-infoboxes thing only relates to not having it where people are born and/or died. I've read [[WP:MOSFLAG]], and nowhere does it state that flags cannot be used to designate sporting nationality. Otherwise, why would the {{tl|fb}} tag - which I believe was actually made by [[WP:FOOTY]] to make linking to national team articles easier - have a flag in the syntax? --[[User:JonBroxton|JonBroxton]] ([[User talk:JonBroxton|talk]]) 22:43, 4 March 2009 (UTC)

::Right - I remember that conversation too - but I'm 99.999% certain that the discussion only related to having flags next to, say, the country where players are born, or next to the name of the domestic club. In that circumstance, I absolutely agree - it messes with row alignment and looks awful. However, for national teams, I don't think it applies. [[WP:MOSFLAG]] clearly states that flags should not be used to designate places of birth/death - and I fully agree. However, the fact that the{{tl|fb}} tag actively includes a flag in the syntax doesn't go against the flags guidelines; the only reason I was putting one on Terry Cooke's page is because there is no {{tl|fb}} tag for England U21's, so I added the flag manually to be consistent. --[[User:JonBroxton|JonBroxton]] ([[User talk:JonBroxton|talk]]) 22:53, 4 March 2009 (UTC)

Hi there PEEJAY, VASCO here, 

Good news, BRUNINHO finally emerged: his mothertongue is indeed Portuguese and he "opened" his message account, and i was the first honoured. There, he told me he was not a vandal, but an inexperienced newbie (although i am still baffled with the 50-so IP, but now the "mood is straight" i am not going to ruin the deal), and offered to work as a team, even offering to decompress (some of) the infobox enlargements he had done (he said he has only one topic, FC BARCELONA - no news there - and wants everything to be well documented).

I guess we could say this could be the beginning of something "wiki-tastic"! Let's just hope for it...Have a nice week, from Portugal,

All reliable sources may say that Mr Cockburn was born in 1923  - That they are wrong means that they are not reliable!

Two sources for you to check.

http://.www.cheshirebmd.org.uk
His birth in 1921 - his parents wedding at St Johns Hurst in 1909



On a personal note, my father (born 1922) played football with him. Dad is still alive if you want his phone number  -  I went to Stamford Boys so if you would kindly check: friends reunited you will see that he is on their famous pupils. 

Please return it to how it was and please check reliable sources.

[[User:Velpremus|Velpremus]] ([[User talk:Velpremus|talk]]) 00:09, 12 March 2009 (UTC)

:Hi PeeJay - I have looked at the sources quoted above which '''do''' confirm the date of birth as 1921. [[User:Velpremus]] has already emailed www.englandfootballonline.com with his evidence and they have changed their website to give the Date of birth as 14-Sept-1921 (see [http://www.englandfootballonline.com/TeamPlyrs/Plyr_C.html]). Michael Joyce (www.allfootballers.com and "Football League Players' Records 1888-1939") also gives the date of birth as 14/09/1921, so I'm coming round to the opinion that all the other sources have got it wrong - they do tend to copy each other, especially if there was an error in the original registration papers. When I have time over the weekend, I will e-mail Michael Joyce and ask him for his sources. I may even apply for a copy of the birth certificate, although that will cost me £7, but if Wikipedia is to have any integrity, these details must be correct.  Cheers.   [[User:Daemonic Kangaroo|Daemonic Kangaroo]] ([[User talk:Daemonic Kangaroo|talk]]) 05:06, 12 March 2009 (UTC)


I have emailed MU and asked them to change the date - As I said before my dad (born 28-7-1922) was in the same class as Henry at junior school and they played together as youths till dad got injured and had a football life in the local leagues - Henry went on to better things, he made his United debut with my Sunday School teacher at the local Methodist Chapel: Bert Whalley (Lived in a terraced house on Portugal Street A-u-L) he as you know he died in the air crash.

Why did you undo my edits to [[2010 FIFA World Cup]]?  I converted the match schedule to footballboxes so it would be easier to input results.

I saw your earlier revisions deleting footballboxes.  I don't think the article gets too big with footballboxes.  It goes from 37k to 40k.  Also, there are no separate group pages where footballboxes would be more appropriate.  Without them, you lose important info:  the time of day for matches and match number.

:Aha, right. I couldn't find any, but I've not worked on football articles so don't know where to look for reliable sources.

Hi there PJ, VASCO here,

I am sorry for the edit conflict in [[Gerard Piqué]]; it's just it was the first time i saw an infobox so needlessly (in my modest point of view) elaborate that i "panicked" and reverted. After, i saw the same pattern in [[Sergio Busquets]] and opted to "stay put", only working in storyline.

Yet, could you please tell me why some infoboxes are the way they are (nationalteams1, nationalteams2, etc, etc)? I already sent a message explaining/inquiring/apologizing to [[User:Commander Shepard]] (seen here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Commander_Shepard#INFOBOXES), which i think, at least by consulting Piqué's edit history, was the original provider of new infoboxes.

== William / Billy / Lot Jones ==

You recently moved [[Billy Lot Jones]] to [[Lot Jones]] using common name conventions as your rationale. While several variations on his name seem to be used in various places, if my books are anything to go by Billy Lot Jones seems the most common. [[User:Oldelpaso|Oldelpaso]] ([[User talk:Oldelpaso|talk]]) 14:31, 13 April 2009 (UTC)
:Yeah it is definitely a nickname, no doubt caused by playing for Wales sides in which he was neither the only Jones or only Billy. Books which use Billy Lot Jones include ''Manchester City the Complete Record'' (and several other books on City by the same author) and the Billy Meredith biography. ''The Manchester City Story'' uses Lot Jones and ''The Maine Road Encyclopedia'' goes with Willy Lot Jones. I guess now I've dug them all out I ought to expand the article... [[User:Oldelpaso|Oldelpaso]] ([[User talk:Oldelpaso|talk]]) 14:55, 13 April 2009 (UTC)
::At the moment I favour Billy Lot Jones, but I'll wait until I finish expanding the article in case any additional information comes to light. [[User:Oldelpaso|Oldelpaso]] ([[User talk:Oldelpaso|talk]]) 16:02, 13 April 2009 (UTC)
:::Perhaps he was known as Lot in Wales and Billy Lot in Manchester, but that's speculation on my part. As both get used I guess the choice isn't that important. [[User:Oldelpaso|Oldelpaso]] ([[User talk:Oldelpaso|talk]]) 09:25, 18 April 2009 (UTC)
== List of Welsh rugby union players ==

Took me an hour or two; cut and paste job and a bit of formatiing between Excel and Word. I'm hoping it will eventually look like the list you began, my only concern is the cap information. We are so short of Wikipeadians on WikiProject rugby, without having people to update the caps issue for present players. The list needs formatting and the ability to sort. I would have split the groups up like the Irish list, but then you can't sort all the players. 

What help are you looking for?

*OK, I've added a column with surnames first, so we can sort the players like your original table, plus I've added DoB and DoD. I've added caps (but will probably only add to those players who have retired from international rugby). Plus I've added the scoring types, as points can't be correlated between the eras. I'll populate as I go along. [[User:FruitMonkey|FruitMonkey]] ([[User talk:FruitMonkey|talk]]) 18:07, 19 April 2009 (UTC)

== Deletion of FA Cup Final 1990 Replay entry re last all-English line-up ==

I would like to discuss your removal of a fact from the 1990 FA Cup Final entry (i.e. that the line-up of the Crystal Palace team in the 1990 Replay was the last all-English line-up in an FA Cup Final). You say it is of no importance and say that for many years other British nationalities have been in Final team line-ups. I would say it is important as it would be surprising to many people that the last all-English line-up occurred as recently as 1990 (and not 1975 with West Ham as many people suppose). Moreover, it is the English FA Cup and it is therefore in my view perfectly legitimate to point out the last occasion when an all-English line up was fielded. I would respectfully suggest that you undermine your own argument in favour of deletion by saying that many Scots, Irish and Welsh were in teams over the years. Surely the fact that an all-English line- up was playing as late as the 1990s makes it notable and thus of at least some importance. You also undermine your argument by saying that teams reaching the FA Cup Final "rarely" fielded all-English sides (surely all-English sides were commonplace since the inception of the competition in 1872 and for several decades thereafter) Moreover, in the 1975 FA Cup Final entry, it is mentioned that West Ham were the last all-English club to win the FA Cup - if you feel that such facts are unimportant, why have you not deleted this from the 1975 page? If you do not remove the 1975 fact, then your logic for deleting the 1990 fact is highly flawed and contradictory. If you do not remove the 1975 fact, then there is no reason why the 1990 fact should be removed.

I disagree with your deletion for the reasons given. However I appreciate you giving your reasons as opposed to an unexplained deletion, even if they are, in my view, flawed and the original 1990 fact should be restored at the earliest opportunity. Thank you. [[User:Dave205|Dave205]] ([[User talk:Dave205|talk]]) 02:08, 22 April 2009 (UTC)

Hi PEEJAY, VASCO here,

sure mate, no problem, i will "interfere"; i only wanted to ask you this first: could you be more specific about what you want him to stop doing? This has to be very clear, since i will be posing my question in Portuguese.

"See you" in a couple of hours, cheers,

VASCO AMARAL - --[[User:NothingButAGoodNothing|NothingButAGoodNothing]] ([[User talk:NothingButAGoodNothing|talk]]) 16:29, 23 April 2009 (UTC)

*Done!! When/if he answers (although he has talked to me sometimes, not feeling very confident about this one tough, as i think he will interpret this as an overt criticism of his work), i'll get back at you, mate. Greetings galore!!

VASCO AMARAL, Portugal - --[[User:NothingButAGoodNothing|NothingButAGoodNothing]] ([[User talk:NothingButAGoodNothing|talk]]) 19:01, 23 April 2009 (UTC)

*Hi there PJ, VASCO here again,

Let's see if i can translate BRUNO's answer in a "qualified" manner: He said he does not do it intentionally, he only changes it whenever PIQUÉ plays with BARCELONA. It just happens to be he has everything filed in his computer, makes changes there, and then copy/pastes to WIKIPEDIA. He says that, due to your doubts/complaints, he will now copy your changes to his computer archives, then proceed from there, ending all problems.

My mate PJ, as i told BRUNINHO previously, not taking anyone's side, i merely translated both person's request and pitched in as intermediary. I hope this matter can be solved.

Best regards, have a nice weekend,

Hi... I'm not into soccer etc., just came across the [[Eric Cantona]] article after reading a news article. So I have no axe to grind. But that General/Specific separation of references seems entirely novel to me. I have never seen it before. It seems to me as if some editor just made it up out of his/her own head...

== A little help for rv ==

Hi,

I noticed you're quite involved in soccer-related article so I'm asking you for a little help. After a recent change patrol, I have been watching the contributions by [[Special:Contributions/90.200.3.230|90.200.3.230]] ([[User talk:90.200.3.230|talk]]) for some days and most them are deletion of information and vandalism of soccer-related pages. I reverted many of his edits and warned him again today. I hope this will make it stop vandalizing. But don't worry about this, i will keep a close watch on him. 

However, I have some troubles asserting if some of his edits are good contributions or vandalism. I can't access sport-related website so i can't check date changes such as [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Paul_Robinson_(goalkeeper)&oldid=287911141] or [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Michael_Carrick&oldid=287909981]. Moreover there are some things i'm not sure about like this one [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Gerard_Piqu%C3%A9&oldid=284177627|one] (it seems Piqué had a contract with M.U on the date of the final, but he doesn't appear in [[2008_UEFA_Champions_League_Final]]). In theses cases I did nothing.

So it would be very nice of you if you could check theses cases and other contributions by this IP that I didn't revert so that we can be sure no hidden vandalism stay on theses articles. 

Thanks in advance,

Really? I thought it was the home team which got first choice and I doubt that Barcelona would not want to wear their classic home kit (they could technically choose to wear their away shirts - Milan did this a few years ago against Liverpool). 

I was just looking at a picture from Middlesbrough game from two weeks ago. The socks are basically all white. [http://soccernet-assets.espn.go.com/design05/images/jb2/giggs_get350.jpg] I don't see any blue on them, like how the socks are shown on the [[Manchester United|United article]]. --[[User:Tocino|Tocino]] 21:39, 6 May 2009 (UTC)
:We could wait for confirmation from ManUtd.com, but I think that there's less than 1% chance that Barcelona will choose to wear their away kits, so IMO it's pretty safe to put the kits back on the article now.

== Quadriple? ==

first of all when you won the world club cup in 1999 along with a 18 point win in the title race in the same season, did you or any other united fan label that as a double win? No. Is that stastistic labeled as a double win in the history of english football books? No. Will 90% for Man U fans label the world club cup as part of a quadriple win? Porbably not for some of the Man United fans I know because they only played 2 matches.  <span style="font-size: smaller;" class="autosigned">—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/80.195.21.194|80.195.21.194]] ([[User talk:80.195.21.194|talk]]) 00:07, 14 May 2009 (UTC)</span><!-- Template:UnsignedIP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

== Response to 'quadriple' ==

Because the press are not really intellegent. In the league cup you can play up to 6 to 7 games to win as does the F.A Cup, Champions League 13 games plus if you pre-qualify. Premier League obviously 38 games, World Club Cup used to be 1 game now 2 games if you are from europe as Man u are. Some United fans (usually the glory-hunting fans who don't live in Manchester or Salford and know nothing about football) will count as a quadriple but the real fans who live in Manchester & salford and parts of lancashire will not count the world club cup as part of a quadrible because it is worldwide tournament and not part of UEFA football tournaments as well as it not being neccessary hard work playing a maximum 2 matches.  If you have a look at the article on the quadrible it mainly would constist of the domestic league, the 2 domestic cups and the Champions League.

what are you with the media or something pal? because your last statement sounded like i ain't supposed to have an opinion on the media. well i do I think reffering to a tournament which only lasts 2 matches as part of a quadrible is not very good considering and also like I said if you have a look at the wikipedia page the quadrible it doesn't say nothing about the world club cup being neccessary part of a quadrible. anyway as a united fan yourself does it surprise me that you now count the world club cup as part of a quadrible, now that you are going to win the Premier League and very possibly the European Cup when 10 years ago United didn't count the world club cup as part of a double? Of course not.

how come it's played in tokyo then first of all? the same venue that United played in 1999 when they beat cornthians and as far as I know the intercontencal cup changed to world club cup because it is played in the same month as the previous tournament all except it has been expanded to include 6 teams now. Oh and do me a favour, I can't spell quadruple (up until then) don't criticise other people's writing pal. not everyone is perfect.--[[Special:Contributions/80.195.21.194|80.195.21.194]] ([[User talk:80.195.21.194|talk]]) 00:44, 14 May 2009 (UTC)

Oh tell a lie you're right it's being moved from Tokyo next year to Dubai so they won the inconternal cup in 1999 but I am still sure that both trophies are joined up to make the World Club Cup because in the Interconternal Cup does not exist anymore and World Club Cup did not happen for 5 years from 2000 onwards. So hence why did United not count that as a double in their record books or the media infact?

== media coverage ==

a bit hypercritical though isn't it? because United are about to break every record in English football history they like to include it as a quadruple. but yet because they oupted out of the f.a cup, got humalited by villa and real madrid in the league cup & european cup respectively the press thought 'well it's only a double isn't it why bother counting it'. anyway wikipedia seems to agree under the title 'the quadruple' that mainly it includes the European cup along with the three domestic trophies.

The interviewer is David Parry-Jones, the author of "The Rugby Clubs of Wales" (Ref. 1), and the interview corroborates several of the biographical details in the article.

Thanks for the heads-up, I'll be more than happy to make a few factual additions to the article. As far as self-promotion goes; in the spirit of disclosure: the interview was conducted by David Parry-Jones on behalf of the Wales Video Gallery before my company was in any way involved in the charity. I immediately saw the potential of Wikipedia to make this information freely available to any and all interested parties. As far as I was aware, the interview was as material as, for example, the photo at sporting heroes and didn't require any textual content to be inserted to the article to justify making it available. I didn't think there would be anything unethical about linking to it, as I was simply providing free access to the material in line with the Deed of Trust of the charity.

== Irish Flag ==

You contradict yourself by saying that Ireland partake in the Heineken cup and that Ireland have won it four times with 2 runers up. What you are arguing is that Ireland never won it, rather, the IRFU did and in  that case Ireland should be replaced with IRFU. Since the IRFU is an Irish organisation and all the players are contracted to it, they therefore play under the Irish Flag, Irish rugby is not governed by politics! I suggest you agree to stop reverting edits or remove all the international flags from the clubs since they all host international players.  <small><span class="autosigned">—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Rickibal|Rickibal]] ([[User talk:Rickibal|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Rickibal|contribs]]) 13:45, 24 May 2009 (UTC)</span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

I don't know how you think you can argue this since you are not Irish. You reverted another edit I made to Trevor Brennan in the Stade Toulousain article. Not contracted by the IRFU, he was an Irish International and therefore is Irish and should have an Irish Flag beside his name. The IRFU is not an international body, it is Irish. The Ulster players, when they play for Ireland, they do not play under the Union Jack or under the IRFU flag, they play under the Irish flag. If you have ever been to an international, the flags in the stadium are the national flags not the flags of the rugby body. Similarly, the Ulster players with British citizenship have a choice to play for England or Ireland, there is not one british player in the lineup. Also, when Ulster win anything, the Heineken Cup for example, that win is not designated British, its not designated  Northern Irish, nor is it designated from multiple nationalities, it is designated Irish. I really don't see how you can stand by your argument.  <small><span class="autosigned">—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Rickibal|Rickibal]] ([[User talk:Rickibal|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Rickibal|contribs]]) 14:07, 24 May 2009 (UTC)</span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

Thanks for the reply.  Going by that reasoning, the whole article is then incorrect as United has not entered into a 2009-10 season yet.

I find your reasoning sound, PeeJay, and your action unfortunately far from that. The article in the current state, gives no information at all, and is in fact less than a stub. Rather than deleting the addition I made, you should have suggested me to change it to suit the rest of the article. Also, the reason you suggested for deleting my addition was the presence of POV, and of weasel words, and thereby the previous mail. Also, while the structure can (and will) change, I would like to know how a description of a football match would not be a minute-by-minute description (of course unless it is a stub).

Hello PeeJay2K3. You are one of the editors who was working on this article just before it was protected. Your own set of reverts put you deep into edit warring territory. I was dismayed by the lack of explanation given for anyone's edits. If the dispute restarts after protection lapses, those editors who have no recent posts on the article's talk page will get extra scrutiny from admins. Further revert warring will not be handled sympathetically, and it may not take four reverts before action is taken.

I see you're running into the same issue witb Bruninho on Gerard Pique's article as I did on [[Albert Celades]]'s article. It's always the same with him - he ignores WP:FOOTY consensus with team link piping by having the "FC" in place, reverts any changes instantly without explanation, fails to enter into any conversation... he has probably the worst case of [[WP:OWN]] I have ever come across on here.

:I honestly don't know what we can do. Yes, he is a regular contributor, but I do often wonder why he doesn't just stick to working on the Portuguese WP - an exuse I often hear for his lack of dialog is that he doesn't write or speak English... in which case, why is he editing an encyclopedia in a language he doesn't speak? I don't edit the Finnish WP, or the Hungarian WP, for that very same reason. Also, if the language barrier makes him incapable of understanding consensus, how is he ever going to edit properly? This is a case in point... a consensus was reached with link piping on teams, which he either ignores (which makes him a bad editor), or he doesn't understand (which makes him a good editor on the wrong site). --[[User:JonBroxton|JonBroxton]] ([[User talk:JonBroxton|talk]]) 17:54, 6 July 2009 (UTC)

== BRUNINHO ==

Hi there PJ, VASCO here, longtime no "see", hope all's fine by you,

Regarding the user at hand, per [[User:EdJohnston|Ed Johnston]]'s request, i'll update you: I messaged BRUNINHO after ED asked me too, and he responded. His "beef" his the following: he feels that too much emphasis has been being put in [[Gerard Piqué]]'s article, with all the other players from FC BARCELONA being "left to die" (that is to say, he says - not my view, i am only conveying what he said - all other BARCELONA players are allowed to have FC BARCELONA in boxes, safe PIQUÉ).

I remember you once told me you had no preference on whether it should be "FC" or "no FC", and i'll tell you (with a Portuguese example at hand) that this club, alongside Portugal's [[F.C. Porto]], is often/commonly referred to with the FC's upfront, although it is also "spoken of" without...Confusing i'll admit it. Following ED's suggestion, i guess it could also be cool to present (maybe it has already been, but not in these molds) a WP/FOOTY discussion. What are your views mate?

I think (am sure in fact) BRUNINHO might also have some major problems in the knowledge of English, maybe this has caused some quarrels that could have been avoided. Count on me as a wiki-translator whenever needed. Have a great week,

*Hi there PJ. Man, some apologies are in order, even though you thanked me for my SOCK post: in my sentence there (it's already been corrected) i first said "...i have no reasons to believe his judgments regarding the MAURICY sockpuppetry...", when i meant "...no reason NOT TO BELIEVE..."!! Sorry about that one :)

Also, i see that it is sad, even though i told BRUNINHO about your approach towards MAN.UTD players (such as he has one towards BARCELONA players). Other than MAURICY, as [[User:JonBroxton|Jon Broxton]] points out in the sock investigation page, BRUNINHO continues to "go all cylinders" in both CRUYFF and PIQUÉ, anon now (has to be him, and the IP is from Brazil).

This past year, i have been dealing with a much much worse case, PARARUBBAS. This guy, as BRUNINHO, did not write one summary, did not engage in no talkpage conversation, removed REFS/EXT.LINKS without a word, etc. Opposed to BRUNINHO, he did try to write in English, with appalling results. Here is a summary of this "masterpiece" (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Sockpuppet_investigations/Pararubbas/Archive). He has now ceased, at least from what i am aware of, to open accounts, but still "contributes" anon.

I do concur with you mate, it's getting rather silly, and i am getting really tired of this.

All the best for you, take care, i'll let you know if he replies (although i SERIOUSLY doubt it this time - i told him about the PIQUÉ/CRUYFF stuff, he went out and edited anon!),

Hi PEEJAY, VASCO again,

Per [[User:Bruninho|Bruninho]]'s request, i now add the (translated) message he sent to my talk page, in its totality (also per request):

"Hey VASCO, BRUNO here.

First, sorry i took so long to reply. I know you want to help and i acknowledge. It happens these last few days have been really hectic for me; you can also see i have  edited very little during that time.

I see there are some editors "in your case". My god, these fellows are pushy, everything has to be their way. It looks as if it's some kind of "society", where everything is pre-arranged and you can't get in and change stuff.

Honestly, i have given up arguing about the FC/no FC discussion. It will stay that way, some players with FC, some without. Everything will be a mess, but since it's what they want...

Another thing: i am not [[User:Mauricy]] nor somebody else. So tell them to stop the investigations and everything else. I am minding my business now, have been editing very little this last days (as opposed to them, i have a social life: work, girl, friends, etc...). Therefore, it article changes come about, it will not be me...

Please note well, i am ASSURING i will not change it more. I don't want any trouble, only for them to stop threatening and harassing me. If they leave me be, i won't disturb anyone.

I would like for you to write all that for them (preferably the entire text). And sorry again for putting you in the mix.

Also, the regulation strongly differentiate the qualifying '''phase''' and the play-off round. Please be attention that I am talking the word "phase" instead of "rounds". That's why I split the play-off round out of qualifying phase, as it is only a qualifying round, but not a part of qualifying phase.<br />
Also, plenty of articles shown that play-off round is out of the qualifying phase. Please be kind to refer to the Article 7.01, 7.02, 7.03, 13.01 (Turf standard requirement), 19.05 (Names at the back of shirt, which would not forced to be printed before), 19.11 (Competition logo must appear since play-off round instead of group stage).

== Updates / Doubt ==

Hi there PJ, VASCO here, hope all's fine by you,

First things first: THANK YOU VERY MUCH for replying to previous issue (i sent five "memos", you were the only one answering). By the way, i don't think BRUNINHO has stopped, i have seen some anon edits (from Brazil) in past/present FC BARCELONA players (A or B sides) with the everpresent "subject" FC/no FC. Either way, i'm backing off from this, have had enough, having had to deal with the other vandal i told you about. Also, as BRUNO's edits are not seen as "bona fide" vandalism, it's not all that worrying (the other "user" was much much more worse!), methinks ;) It's just sad that he may be coming across as an unreliable person (i.e. checkuser showed he and MAURICY are same person, he denies it)...

My doubt: there is chap (anon and without a single edit summary to make it "better") that has been inserting (at least [[Juan Manuel Mata|here]] and [[Alexis Ruano Delgado|here]]) unofficial honours in player pages (i.e. friendly tournaments). I would like to know: is this "encouraged", non-allowed or indifferent? Problem is this guy seems unreachable, much more if he has a dynamic IP (in addition to already mentioned - no summaries).

Also from MATA's article, to give you an idea of how people are in their "contributions", more worried in making their mark on the wiki-world than improving article, look at this charmer i removed:

"After some exhilerating performances during the 08-09 season, Juan Manuel Mata was heavily linked with a move away from Valencia C.F. Recent reports in the media have often suggested that Rafael Benitez is keen to bring the left sided player to Anfied in a bid to rectify the problem position. However, these reports are yet to be confirmed."

PEEJAY, just look at the end of the sentence!! What on earth are these people thinking of? They write stuff here as if they were talking to a friend in a bar...

Again, ty for your time, i'll see you around,

The original shot is uncredited and may have been taken any time after about 1923, but I was "ultra honest" in saying "circa 1930".

Hi there PEEJAY, VASCO here,

I shall spend my time on Wikipedia as I wish. If I wish to spend it futilely reverting edits that are contrary to policy, then I will do so. Your vendetta against me for something that doesn't really affect you in any way is frankly laughable. – [[User:PeeJay2K3|Pee]][[User talk:PeeJay2K3|Jay]] 19:20, 12 August 2009 (UTC)

:Too bad that you don't see that your revertions are counterproductive. And watching IPs set them back to reality is what is so laughable about you. [[User:Brudder Andrusha|Brudder Andrusha]] ([[User talk:Brudder Andrusha|talk]]) 19:25, 12 August 2009 (UTC)

How is it counter-productive? The match result is not ratified until the referee submits his report to the relevant association, so any changes that take place between the start of the game and the submission of the report are plainly wrong. If you have a problem with this, take it up with the people who draft Wikipedia policy and the IPs who keep mistakenly reverting me. Either way, your problem with me is misplaced. – PeeJay 19:28, 12 August 2009 (UTC) 

:Its counter-productive because its inevitable that the information displayed will reflect what the referee - and not just but media. Since you believe it is wrong why don't you disappear for duration of games and then come back and is see if the information is wrong. I reckon you'll surprise yourself to no ends that the information will be correct. Also you tend to be hypocritic in your entries. How is it that for football you play the dictator for the end of the match but for cricket I noticed you don't wait for the end of the game? Whats the difference? The match is not complete - so why aren't you playing the big Field Marshall. Obviously you'll make the rules and excuses up as you go along. Also I don't miss you in the Western Hemisphere. If you're so intent on not having live updates then why don't you stay up and play big editor tonight when CONCACAF will play their qualifiers. What are you scared to venture out of your playing field or do you just WP Policy to suit you entrade. I don't have any problems here in WP, because I'm far too old to be bothered with boys like you who really do have problems. BIG PROBLEMS in life!

Hi! Regarding the incidental corrections {{Querylink|Adam Eckersley|qs=&curid=2523400&diff=309776813&oldid=296545687|I made}} at [[Adam Eckersley]]: I think the consensus on Wikipedia is to use the n-dash for sport results (see these [http://www.google.com/search?q={{urlencode:manual of style sport scores hyphen dash site:en.wikipedia.org}} search results]{{#if:{{NAMESPACE}}|{{ns:0}}|<span class="messagebox" style="padding: 0; font-size: xx-small; color: #000000;">''[[Template:Google]] should not be used in articles as Google links are not considered appropriate for an encyclopedia.''</span>}}), and that applies when external titles are quoted as well.

== Excess kit detail ==

Hi. I saw that you'd done some good work tidying up the images for the current Chelsea kits, getting rid of logos, etc. I'm not sure how to do this, so wherever I find these types of images I've just been changing to a simpler version from the kit pattern list. This often gets undone. So, do you think that you might be able to look at a few files where editors have insisted on creating a unique and overly detailed version of a kit for (presumably) their club? Here's a few I found recently:

Hi PeeJay2K3, Thanks for stepping in to deal with the IP on Garth Crooks. I thought at one point I had got him to calm down but his last run of outbursts told me it was time to cease the debate and walk away. Anyway interestingly the point he was raising has at least some merit. Although the Everton FC website calls [[Mike Trebilcock]] a Cornishman both the Wikipedia article (uncited though) and several fanzine sites claim he was the first black player to play and score a goal in the FA Cup. I will post on [[WP:FOOTY]] to see if there is an authoritative account somewhere. Cheers.[[User:Tmol42|Tmol42]] ([[User talk:Tmol42|talk]]) 10:28, 13 September 2009 (UTC)

== Skysports Annual 2008-09 ==

Saw on the booklist that you have a copy. Could you possibly do me a favour if you have the time, and look up the U-21 internationals section, where they give team lists for the home countries' games, and see if David Howland played for Northern Ireland U-21s in any match that season apart from those listed at [[David Howland#International level]]?

== Removal of PROD from [[List of Premier League football club sponsors]] ==

Hello PeeJay2K3, this is an automated message from [[User:SDPatrolBot|SDPatrolBot]] to inform you the PROD template you added to [[List of Premier League football club sponsors]] has been removed.

Please consider [[User_talk:TheBigJagielka|discussing your concerns]] with TheBigJagielka before pursuing deletion further yourself.

== FAR of MCFC ==

Just a note to say that your comment at [[Wikipedia:Featured article review/Manchester City F.C.]] (since been deleted under housekeeping) has now been moved to the [[Wikipedia:Featured article review/Manchester City F.C./archive2|current FAR page]]. You placed your comment on an old redirect page so it has now been moved to the current page. Any further input would be helpful particularly after the recent cite improvements. (Probably best before the derby this weekend clouds emotions either way, particuarly if "stamper" is playing ;))Thanks, [[User:Woody|Woody]] ([[User talk:Woody|talk]]) 23:52, 15 September 2009 (UTC)

== re: Edits to [[Template:Manchester City F.C.]] ==

Is there a new manual of style going around for these templates? I see you edited ours. I have to say (slightly tongue-in-cheekly, and with no malice, I assure you) that I prefer our previous one. However, if there's some MoS mumbo-jumbo that some guy has made up, I'll defer to the new trend. <span style="border:1px solid black;padding:1px;">[[User:Falastur2|<span style="color:#000000; background:#AAD0FF;">'''Falastur2'''</span>]]</span> <sup><b>[[User talk:Falastur2|Talk]]</b></sup> 20:43, 20 September 2009 (UTC)
:No, no. Your edit was fine, you didn't lose anything, I have no reason to hold you to account. I just don't like the new style ;) I just liked the old thing and am not a big fan of the left-alignedness and the extra classification involved. But you pointed out the real problem - there's a Manual of Style now - so I'll stick with it. I'm sure I'll get used to it eventually.

::Haha. I actually like keeping navboxes open, so long as they don't get excessively long. But since it's entirely optional I guess my case isn't really that strong ;) <span style="border:1px solid black;padding:1px;">[[User:Falastur2|<span style="color:#000000; background:#AAD0FF;">'''Falastur2'''</span>]]</span> <sup><b>[[User talk:Falastur2|Talk]]</b></sup> 21:36, 20 September 2009 (UTC)

Hi mate, I have been working on creating navbox templates for the seasons in English football, adding the preferred "Club seasons" section instead of "Transfers Over £10million". Could you take a look at them (I have done quite a few for the last 10 years) and amend any links or ommisions. I have been adding the team names to the template so that it serves as a record of the season, but left them as black-links until the articles are created - I hope this is OK. Thanks.

== Danny Drinkwater ==

PeeJay, the whole think about isolating the quotation marks from being bolded is complete nonsense, so I think you should just leave it alone frankly. The thing about the dates is that I prefer that method which I have used since I first used this site nearly 4 years ago.

== Fifa ranking ==

Hi, why did you revert my comment in the criticism section of the FIFA ranking page?! It's a perfectly valid criticism, and by reverting it you're calling it 'nonesense or vandalism'!  <span style="font-size: smaller;" class="autosigned">—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/18.111.6.5|18.111.6.5]] ([[User talk:18.111.6.5|talk]]) 05:43, 30 September 2009 (UTC)</span><!-- Template:UnsignedIP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->
I rewrote my comment, made it a bit more objective by taking out my suggestions, and leaving just the criticism of the current system. If you want to remove it, you have to give arguments why you think it's not true. However, the point I made is true mathematically, and math doesn't lie, there's no subjectivity involved here.  <span style="font-size: smaller;" class="autosigned">—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/18.111.6.5|18.111.6.5]] ([[User talk:18.111.6.5|talk]]) 06:21, 30 September 2009 (UTC)</span><!-- Template:UnsignedIP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

My friend, I searched all over the internet and couldn't find anyone who noticed this issue. Now you don't need to have it verified by an article somewhere, because you can do the math yourself, as I show in the example, and you can verify it. I think no one noticed this, but it's blatantly unfair. And mine are not just concerns, they are mathematical truths, so I don't see the need to go look for a reference for them. It's like your asking me to find a reference for 1+1=2.

So out of respect for you, I won't change it till I get a response from you.  <span style="font-size: smaller;" class="autosigned">—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/18.111.6.5|18.111.6.5]] ([[User talk:18.111.6.5|talk]]) 15:22, 30 September 2009 (UTC)</span><!-- Template:UnsignedIP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

Have had similar problems with, I suspect, the same "editor". Most notably at [[Tommy Godwin (footballer)]]. I think its ridiculous to link a site which cannot be checked without paying to access it.

== Ray van der Gouw ==

Hi there PEEJAY, VASCO here,

Longtime no see, hope all's fine by you. About my edits at [[Raimond van der Gouw]], i'll explain about the infobox, since the rest is pretty much clear: my approach for its compression was the following - and since you told me "WEST HAM UNITED and RCK WAALWIJK are no longer than MANCHESTER UNITED": i compressed to WEST HAM, RKC and AGOVV because i thought those sufficed, being the names of clubs (WEST HAM is in London, RKC is from Waalwijk (and the same for AGOOVV)), but i could/would never compress MAN.UNITED to MANCHESTER, for obvious reasons, mate.

That said, don't worry, i will never revert that box again, i respect your approach, just wanted to let you know on my "tactics". By the way, about MANU's last match, do you know why was [[Ben Foster (footballer)|Ben Foster]] benched? Kind of weird to "rotate" your keeper in a CL match :) And still about the main point in my message, like i said, no worries, i am not BRUNINHO/MAURICY/LAVOTANOVO/etc, etc, your last version at van der Gouw, at least from my "perspective", will stay untouched.

Greetings, keep up the good work,

VASCO AMARAL, Portugal - --[[User:NothingButAGoodNothing|NothingButAGoodNothing]] ([[User talk:NothingButAGoodNothing|talk]]) 15:43, 1 October 2009 (UTC)

Hehe, I realized that... Quite funny, even though [[:no:Rommen|I live]] 500 m from where [[:no:Romsås|he grew up]], I've never seen him play! ...until today! But I think he did quite well, the small amount of time that he got! Also nice to see two Norwegian players in United-jerseys again, brings back memories from the period with [[Henning Berg|Berg]], [[Ronny Johnsen|Johnsen]] & [[Ole Gunnar Solskjær|Solskjær]] (aka. the Treble season).
