HongKong-sport-bio-stub

Hi. Your changes to HongKong-sport-bio-stub have been reverted, since the new category you made was a re-creation of a previously deleted category. If you wish to create a new stub category, please propose it through Wikipedia:WikiProject Stub sorting/Proposals. Grutness...wha? 09:36, 27 January 2007 (UTC)

That's not really the point though. It is a previously deleted category, so could and would be re-deleted unless "formally adopted". I agree that it's very unlikely to be opposed, though, and I'd support its creation myself. It's more a "proper procedure" thing than anything else. Grutness...wha? 09:50, 27 January 2007 (UTC)
In any case, it's actually quicker to repropose it than take it to discoveries. At WSS/P it's all done and dusted in five days, whereas things can linger on the discovery page for months with people umming and ahing about them. Grutness...wha? 09:55, 27 January 2007 (UTC)

NONSENSE

This is the only warning you will receive for your disruptive edits Like kovaiek(i hope i spelled it correctly). If you vandalise Wikipedia once again, you will be blocked from editing. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Amongwatch (talkcontribs) 13:38, 8 March 2007 (UTC)

Your squad update of the Bosnia and Herzegovina national football team

Hello. Could you link me to the squad update source? It's not that I don't trust you, its just I'm looking for where the squad update is listed too. Thanks. Mehicdino 20:05, 17 March 2007 (UTC)


FIFA ranking updates March 07

Sterling work on updating the rankings. As one who has for the last few months trawled through a few days after each FIFA update changing the rankings of the pages of national sides whose own interested parties had not already done so, I know the task, and also the frustration of working through a list to find that some have been changed, and others have not. And so, have you, as far as you know, updated all of them, or did you concentrate on one Continent or one range of the rankings list? Are there many that stil need updating, and if you wish me to help, can you direct me to which they might be? Kevin McE 20:12, 14 March 2007 (UTC)

National team templates

I think it is time to try and build a concensus on these things once and for all. See Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Football#Lets standardize national team templates for what I hope is a fruitful discussion. Neier 13:09, 22 March 2007 (UTC)

Hi, seeing you have been involved in previous Afd debates I invite you to contribute to this discussion to clarify certain issues about football player notability. I think clearer guidelines are needed to avoid repeated inappropriate nominations for deletion and time consuming discussions. Cheers! StephP 17:44, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

Your revert has been acknowledged, but perhaps you should have simply edited rather than reverted. To use "To which" to start a sentence in reference to another sentence is unconventional. Thanks. --Qwerty (talk) 01:54, 31 March 2007 (UTC)

My bad... you did use the [Edit] button. Sorry. Do you know the citation on the 6th on the charts, not 10th, though? (I'm skeptical about content added by IP's most of the time.) Qwerty (talk) 01:56, 31 March 2007 (UTC)

Vote!

Following your contribution to the discussion on football player notability you might be interested in voting on this. Rgds, StephP 10:24, 31 March 2007 (UTC)


Vandalism

Any chance of backing up on this. Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Football#Vandalism_on_AC_Milan_article This guy has a major axe to grind. Niall123 08:19, 14 April 2007 (UTC)

Angolan footballers

I believe that players like Fernando Peyroteo should be classified as both Angolan and Portuguese. It is not based on national teams, but by nationality. It is a clearly a fine line with the old empires, but he was born in Angola and therefore, is Angolan by birth, Portuguese by ethnicity. Both should be included.--Thomas.macmillan 19:11, 14 April 2007 (UTC)

  • The difference between those players and Peyroteo is that Peyroteo was born in a Portuguese colony, while they were born in countries that did not share common citizenship. João Ricardo is another white Angolan that should be classified as Angolan, despite the fact that he played most of his life outside of the country. His national team experience does not matter in this situation.--Thomas.macmillan 19:23, 14 April 2007 (UTC)

The singer Luis Miguel

Just two Google tests,

356 for "Luis Miguel Gallego " OR "Luis Miguel Gallegos "

and

773 of about 106,000 for "Luis Miguel " singer OR musican

suffice to convince me that your move of Luis Miguel to Luis Miguel Gallego Basteri utterly ignored WP:COMMONNAME. I have not yet researched whether the correct title is

but if you don't fix it quickly, i will do so without further communicating with you.
--Jerzyt 20:39, 18 April 2007 (UTC)

I would consider your move from Luis Miguel to Luis Miguel Gallego Basteri as a highly controversial renaming of an article. Please do not take offense, but I am positive that you are not familiar with this topic, or Spanish culture in general. Here are my thoughts on this:

  • Luis Miguel is a singer of worldwide fame and much more notable than the other four Luis Miguels that you included in that disambiguation list.
  • Luis Miguel is much more of a public figure than any other Luis Miguel, since he is a Grammy winner and is often romantically associated with big stars, such as Mariah Carey, Daisy Fuentes, etc.
  • Please also note that "Luis Miguel" is his professional name, and that is why he is notable, he is not a scientist or politician or any other profession where a full name is used.
  • Also only one of the other Luis Miguels has an article, therefore people looking for "Luis Miguel" will be taken to that disambig page while almost all of them will be looking for the singer and not anybody else.
  • In addition, none of the other Luis Miguels go by "Luis Miguel" only the singer.

I will strongly suggest you moved the page back to Luis Miguel and create another Luis Miguel (disambiguation) page.

Don't need to add every single player in whole Internazionale's history; that one is supposed to be a list of "notable Inter footballers", i.e. players who have appeared at least 100 times with the club (or fell short of 100 in case), plus players which experienced considerable success with some other team. Players with a very short number of caps with Inter should not be included at all. The inclusion rule should be explained in the article itself, by the way, and is shared by all analogous footballers' lists in Wikipedia (I've originally taken from Arsenal's). --Angelo 03:42, 28 April 2007 (UTC)

Dear Matthew hk, I just want to thank you for catching my mistake on the Honduras-footy-bio/footybio. Good work with the editing and I look forward to work with you again.--Thomas.macmillan 05:17, 9 May 2007 (UTC)
