Tommy Browell

I think I've now got a cast-iron source for his birthdate, in a book written by Manchester City's club historian. Oldelpaso 19:36, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

Is this vandalism or what? You clearly don't understand how the template works so please desist. Kanaye 22:28, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

Why did you change my edits? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.53.78.127 (talk • contribs)

Mental retardation - again

Take a look at the bottom of this page: 2003-04_in_Scottish_football. Then here: 1963-64_in_Scottish_football. Then try to figure out why your edits are disrupting the the function of the template. Kanaye 13:27, 20 March 2007 (UTC)

Bloomfield Road and Blackpool FC

Despite what any article states, the capacity at Bloomfield Road IS 9,491. For instance, the game between Blackpool and Carlisle United in December 2006 was announced as a Sell Out - 9,491, which the club have also recently confirmed is the official capacity. Tangerines 21:21, 26 March 2007 (UTC)

Re: "Gardening at Night"

When he was frustrated, his guitar was still out of tune. So I think he may have had difficulty tuning due to the amp, but it's still true that he struggled with the tuning.Lord Kelvin 02:56, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

Popups

I know it's easy to hit the "rv" in popups when you want to revert something to a previous version, but please don't do so. [2] This was not vandalism, and as such I think it's proper to provide a reasoning with your edit. The usage of flags is not a disputed matter, and the fact is that in Infobox Television it's even advised atm... --TheDJ (talk • contribs • WikiProject Television) 18:47, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

David Gray template

Thanks for replacing the dashes with bullets on this template. I was looking at it earlier and couldn't work out what looked wrong with it, but it was the dashes! :) —Serein 20:52, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

Stalmine

Thanks for the edits. I thought it was time to try and sort the Stalmine page out and it does hopefully appear much better now. Next to take some photographs of the village! Tangerines 22:59, 4 April 2007 (UTC)

Blackpool F.C. seasons

No problem, I will check and see what I can find out for 1992-93 up to 1995-96. Looking even further back, I am sure that when Jock Dodds died recently the Blackpool Gazette mentioned him being top scorer in some of the 2nd World War years. I will have a look at that too see if it was listed. Tangerines 18:29, 5 April 2007 (UTC)

Hmm, so far I have got from the official club site -

• 1992-93 Dave Bamber
• 1994-95 Tony Ellis

But neither give the number of goals scored. Is it in order to add them, and add in the number of goals later? Tangerines 18:35, 5 April 2007 (UTC)

Wikipedians from Blackpool

Good idea to change it to "from" with it then being more inclusive than just "in". However, the Userbox with the orange background to the left made it stand out, and made it more Blackpool related (even though it should be tangerine really) whereas, as it is now, it doesn't stand out. Orange would really be best in there somewhere as it was before. Tangerines 19:53, 5 April 2007 (UTC)

Acoustic guitar

Yes, all info in the previous Acoustic guitar page are now in Acoustic guitar (disambiguation). How do you like it? Anyep 10:49, 9 April 2007 (UTC)

Blackpool F.C.

Hah hah, I got carried away in my excitement!! Only 5 point off automatic promotion and my euphoria got the better of me! Although having said that the section on the recent years could do with some more about Simon Graysons tenure. ♦Tangerines BFC ♦·Talk 22:19, 10 April 2007 (UTC)

Blackpool

Just wondering what you think of the addition of all the societies, associations & clubs, as it just seems to be a very random list that has been inserted into the section by User:Bpoollad22. I have tidied the section up, but still feel it is a bit odd. Especially considering no website link nor link to a wikipedia page (none of the groups listed have a wikipedia page anyway) has been provided. ♦Tangerines BFC ♦·Talk 01:46, 7 April 2007 (UTC)

Replied here.

My point was nothing to do with the users edits, just what you thought about having a "Clubs, societies and associations" section on the Blackpool page as you have contributed to the page a lot more than I have. ♦Tangerines BFC ♦·Talk 21:34, 12 April 2007 (UTC)

Replied here.

Cheers, maybe that section just needs an eye kept on so that it doesn't escalate into a free for all. The groups added all seem fine, as I think they have been copied and pasted from the Blackpool Council website. I know I've seen that list before somewhere! One last thing (sorry), do you know much about adding images? I am ok adding them to wikipedia, but I am unsure as to what the wikipedia policy is on the number of pictures that can be added to each arcticle? Thanks ♦Tangerines BFC ♦·Talk 22:03, 12 April 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for that. I noticed that many of the local, Fylde Coast area, pages, such as Blackpool and Stalmine and pages about local football clubs grounds and clubs, have very few pictures. As I have quite a few good quality pictures that I have taken of areas such as Bispham Rock Gardens and so on, I thought of adding a few to the various pages to try and improve them. ♦Tangerines BFC ♦·Talk 22:15, 12 April 2007 (UTC)

The Gazette dropped the word "Evening" from its title a while back now. No idea why though. It is now either "The Gazette" or "Blackpool Gazette" as both are used, see here Gazette website ♦Tangerines BFC ♦·Talk 00:38, 13 April 2007 (UTC)

Blackpool F.C.

Hi, it was announced today on the official site that striker, Matthew Blinkhorn has been recalled from Morecambe F.C. due to the injury to Ben Burgess (and the fact that Blinks has scored 8 goals in 12 games for Morecambe!). I really don't know how to even begin to move a player from the loans bit to the main squad and if this then removes him from the Morecambe page. Is there any way you could do it (check the official site here - http://www.blackpoolfc.premiumtv.co.uk/page/News/NewsDetail/0,,10432~1010622,00.html which will confirm his return. Thanks ♦Tangerines BFC ♦·Talk 22:36, 13 April 2007 (UTC)

Hey no problem, I had a look at it in the end and realised that I would be able to move his name into the squad. I did forget though to remove his name from the Morecambe page!♦Tangerines BFC ♦·Talk 20:24, 17 April 2007 (UTC)

Sorry

Hello. You recently posted a comment on my talk page regarding my posting of an unreferenced tag on an article that apparently didn't need it. I'm very sorry if it caused you any problems. If you could please tell me in which article(s) my mistake can be found, I will happily remove the tag. Yours truly, Boricuaeddie 16:35, 11 April 2007 (UTC)

No worries; I've fixed it. - Dudesleeper · Talk 17:04, 11 April 2007 (UTC)

Hello, again. I'm sorry, but I'm afraid Ian Gore still does not properly cite its sources. I will once again tag it. Please do not remove the tag until the problem is fixed. Please refer to WP:CITE to learn how to properly cite sources. Yours truly, Boricuaeddie 01:40, 14 April 2007 (UTC)

Amended. (Please link to the specific section of a WP article in future. I know this is going above and beyond for some users, but it is helpful to others.) - Dudesleeper · Talk 00:17, 16 April 2007 (UTC)

I'm sorry, but I found your comments here rather troubling. I'm sorry if I insulted you by implying something I'm sure I didn't mean when I suggested you refer to WP:CITE to "learn" how to cite sources. Pleas excuse my comments, since I was only trying to tell you where you could find the guidelines for properly citing sources. I hope you can forgive me. Yours truly, Boricuaeddie 22:17, 16 April 2007 (UTC)

You don't need to apologise quite so often, but it beats the alternative, I suppose. - Dudesleeper · Talk 22:28, 16 April 2007 (UTC)
