Tyler Rosenlund on the National Team page

I would like to know why you decided to remove his name from the list of Canadian players listed. Although it appears now that he did not make the game v. Martinique for some reason despite being previously on the starting roster, he featured in the next exhibition against Vejle Boldklub and played a little over a half. Seeing that you have players with no caps on the Canadian roster (Asmir Begović, Roberto Giacomi), I don't see why he still doesn't deserve to be on the list since he's had playing time in their last game.

TFC Page Lock

Yeah, I was the one who requested it be protected from editing because of an edit war on the subject of the nickname "Redcoats". However, I wasn't the one who chose to fully protect it, that was the moderator's decision, given that it's an edit war which was getting pretty nasty. Further, he protected it for 72 hours so it will be automatically unprotected at 1144 hrs (UTC) on Friday. That too was his decision. I intend to update the page with the latest information when it comes unlocked. If you get there before me to edit it, that's fine, but I'll be swinging by to take care of it so you don't have to worry about it. Lucky Strike (talk) 20:11, 10 April 2008 (UTC) Lckystrke

RE: Texas Fest

Sorry I didn't get back to you sooner. I hope you weren't offended. Normally, I'd agree with medalling but 3rd of 4 doesn't seem like that great of an accomplishment. I also concur on the CCC, and I'd add that in the future (once the Canadian Championship is done with) we should probably only stick to "real" matches, excluding friendly tournaments and/or pre-season ones.

Canadian soccer team

Hey, thanks for your message. I took a look and worked out what the problem was: all the headings were of the wrong order. The primary headings had only one = whereas, per WP:HEAD, primary headings should have two (==), sub-heading three (===), etc. No heading should ever have only one equals sign in front and behind. That's why I undid your edit. All sorted now. — Lincolnite (talk) 18:35, 1 June 2008 (UTC)

DYK for List of combined European club champions

On 2 December, 2008, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article List of combined European club champions, which you created or substantially expanded. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page.

Inuit

I noticed your addition and I changed the reference. While the CBC is a good reference I thought that this was a bit better as it includes a map of the entire area. I also added this as it seems to be the best explanation that I could find. Interesting thing is I have never heard that term before and neither have the two other people that I could call at 11:00 pm but it's been in use since at least January and possibly longer.

Image copyright problem with File:1913 wanderers.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:1913 wanderers.jpg. You've indicated that the image is being used under a claim of fair use, but you have not provided an adequate explanation for why it meets Wikipedia's requirements for such images. In particular, for each page the image is used on, the image must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Can you please check

• That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's description page for each article the image is used in.
• That every article it is used on is linked to from its description page.

Notification: changes to "Mark my edits as minor by default" preference

Hello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have (or very recently had) enabled.

On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (consensus discussion). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was true. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to false in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and you will still be able to manually mark your edits as being minor in the usual way.

For established users such as yourself there is a workaround available involving custom JavaScript. With the script in place, you can continue with this functionality indefinitely (its use is governed by WP:MINOR). If you have any problems, feel free to drop me a note.

Thank you for your understanding and happy editing :) Editing on behalf of User:Jarry1250, LivingBot (talk) 19:20, 15 March 2011 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for September 17

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited 2007 FIFA U-20 World Cup, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages David Edgar and Adrián López (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). 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.

Nomination of Mundialito, Artemio Franchi trophy and FIFA Confederations Cup statistics for deletion

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion template from the top of the article. Kevin McE (talk) 23:52, 23 January 2013 (UTC)

Bahamas national team

According to this source on the official CFU profile, Paul James is Canadian. http://www.cfufootball.org/index.php/member-associations/9183-bahamas

The old link was dead because the CFU recently revamped their website and got a new domain. Your source clearly says he is from Guyana but perhaps he moved to Canada and gained citizenship at some point. Also, the Paul James that you linked to in the intro paragraph links to a disambiguation page and the info box still links to the Canadian coach.

Invite to the African Destubathon

Hi. You may be interested in participating in the African Destubathon which starts on October 15. Africa currently has over 37,000 stubs and badly needs a quality improvement editathon/contest to flesh out basic stubs. There are proposed substantial prizes to give to editors who do the most articles, and planned smaller prizes for doing to most destubs for each of the 53 African countries, so should be enjoyable! So it would be a good chance to win something for improving stubs on African sportspeople, including footballers, athletes, Olympians and Paralympians etc, particularly female ones, but also male. Even if contests aren't your thing we would be grateful if you could consider destubbing a few African articles during the drive to help the cause and help reduce the massive 37,000 + stub count, of which many are rated high importance (think Regions of countries etc). If you're interested in competing or just loosely contributing a few expanded articles on African Paralympians, Olympians and committees etc, please add your name to the Contestants/participants section. Diversity of work from a lot of people will make this that bit more special. Thanks. --MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 21:13, 6 October 2016 (UTC)
