Luxembourg Clubs in European Competitions[edit]

@Riley2323: I was in the process of compiling this list based on the new consensus of displaying European two-legged ties from the Project Football Talk page. As other countries have this as a separate page, I was going to add it once I completed the list of matches. See the current progress on my User Page here: Luxembourg football clubs in European competitions, which has the structure based on the existing Northern Irish football clubs in European competitions page (etc) but with this new 1st/2nd leg H/A format. I'll use your list to complete mine as it's much easier to use this rather than going through each competition myself as I was currently doing! I hope to have it completed in the next few days. --Philk84 (talk) 15:10, 5 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Done the new dedicated page is now in place, ready for Dudelange's group game against Milan. --Philk84 (talk) 20:28, 10 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Verification and Exapansion[edit]

Hi @MarnetteD: and @Mr Guye:, I'm just curious what is expected from your tags saying this article needs verification and expansion? I'm currently trying to update some Luxembourgish Football Wikipedia pages to be more like other nations with more information and references when I can find them, but any input you can give on this would be appreciated. Does it just need to have more links to external sources (and not just have content taken from other Wikipedia pages), and more content similar to other "Football in ..." pages? Being based in Luxembourg and a keen football fan, I would hope I can improve this article to fill in the blanks wherever they are, but being fairly new to Wikipedia I'd appreciate the guidance. Thanks, --Philk84 (talk) 19:06, 10 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, autocorrect. That's meant to be @Mr. Guye:. --Philk84 (talk) 19:08, 10 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Philk84. I only ran the program that fixed the bare urls. I'll have to leave it to Mr Guye to explain what he is looking for re: the other tags. Thanks for your work on this article. MarnetteD|Talk 19:10, 10 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Philk84 and MarnetteD: The article's body consists almost solely of tables and statistics about Luxembourg's ~~performance in the sport~~ teams and its league structure. It lacks content on the history of association football in Luxembourg and the influence of association football on Luxembourg's culture. And I'm not sure if it could be plausibly found, but information on why association football is so popular in Luxembourg could be helpful. — Mr. Guye (talk) (contribs) 22:53, 14 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Mr. Guye: Thanks, I'm looking into expanding it with the same kind of content as in the Football in England article, but I'm also doubting what can be found online. I'll see what I can find. --Philk84

@Philk84 and MarnetteD: And thank you for the work that has been done already. I've removed the tags asking for more verification. — Mr. Guye (talk) (contribs) 22:57, 14 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
