Updates to Dorley's International Appearances, November 2018[edit]

Because I have had difficulty convincing an administrator that my good faith edits and updates to Dorley's international appearances are not, for some reason, "vandalism," I wanted to make the reasoning and process behind my updates public. If anyone judges these updates incorrect, flawed, or akin to vandalism, please explain how and why below and update the page according to information you believe is more solid and/or appropriate. I have no problem with someone disagreeing with an update. But I think it's unproductive simply to revert a good faith edit/update that is based on confirmed information. Please see below for my explanation of why Dorley's international appearances should be listed, as of 20 November 2018, as 11.

As of 20 November, the following link shows his total appearances as 10: https://www.national-football-teams.com/player/59788/Oscar_Dorley.html. This match report from Sunday's match (18 November) shows that Dorley featured for Liberia: http://www.espn.com/soccer/lineups?gameId=501747. If we add this additional appearance to the total found in the first link, which has not been updated to include Sunday's match, we find that Dorley does, in fact, have 11 caps for Liberia.
