Personal blog on FA review for Peru national football team

Dear Parutakupiu,
Thank you so much for reviewing the Peru national football team article.
The comment on the blog was also raised during the GA review several years ago. The blog's writer, Mr. Jaime Pulgar-Vidal Otalora, replied on the subject and left the following message in the article's talk page (see [1]).
In short, he has a master's degree on Latin American history from the Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú (in Lima). Since 1988 he has worked as a sports analyst. Back in 2009 (when he wrote the message) he claimed to be a professor at the St. Ignatius Loyola Institute (also in Lima), where he taught a course on sports history. He has written four major articles for history books and journals, three of them focusing on the history of football in Peru.
I am not sure what he is up to lately (hopefully more successes), but I hope this clears up the matter (as it did back in 2009).
Best regards, and thank you again for reviewing the article.--MarshalN20 | Talk 21:22, 14 July 2013 (UTC)

Well, thanks for your prompt reply! It does clear any questions regarding the reliability of the author. Does that also apply to the other blog source in the stadium section? Parutakupiu (talk) 21:28, 14 July 2013 (UTC)
The blogs in the stadium section are from two Pontificia Universidad Católica del Peru (PUCP) professors. Orrego has a Phd on Latin American history, and Nomberto has a Phd on Social Science and works as an anthropologist. I haven't had the pleasure to message with them, so that is all I currently know about either of them. Regards.--MarshalN20 | Talk 22:03, 14 July 2013 (UTC)

Dear Parutakupiu,
I updated the article to the current MoS style (and the one you suggested) so that you may continue your review of it.
Since this is the current MoS guideline, I also think that it should be the one the article uses for the time being (unless the discussion in the FA talk page reaches a different consensus).
Best regards.--MarshalN20 | Talk 14:01, 16 July 2013 (UTC)

Kits

Hello,

I want to thank you for your continued support when creating kits for the pages I have created.

Can you create the kits for the following pages. You can do it whenever you can. The only reason I am asking is because you are the only person I know that created football kits and is good at it.


User talk:Alexgreene87 25 July 2013, 18:36 (UTC)

Hi, I'll try to do them this weekend. Parutakupiu (talk) 19:23, 25 July 2013 (UTC)

Congratulations!

I saw the FC Porto article got promoted to FA status. Congratulations!--MarshalN20 | Talk 00:37, 10 August 2013 (UTC)

Hey, thanks! Phew, it took a while but it got there. Hope your FAC gets more reviews in the meantime. Cheers, Parutakupiu (talk) 01:18, 10 August 2013 (UTC)

Law school of beirut source location

Hello and thank you for your amazing work! I noticed you added locations to the books cited in the bibliography. I did not omit this before but one reviewer asked me to either list the locations for all the books or remove them altogether to preserve uniformity. I like what you did but do you think that listing the name of the publisher such as the Cambridge University Press is sufficient and self-explanatory or should I also state the location in such instances? -Eli+ 12:16, 10 September 2013 (UTC)

You're welcome. You can remove them all if you don't want to take another issue to a FAC. If they ask you to add locations to all citations, then so be it. Parutakupiu (talk) 14:39, 10 September 2013 (UTC)

I like locations :P, I'll be adding the rest -Eli+ 16:02, 10 September 2013 (UTC)

Peru national football team, 4th FA Review

Dear Parutakupiu,

I hope the new year is off to a good start for you. If you have some time available, would you be interested in providing either comments, a support/oppose decision, or both at the Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/Peru national football team/archive4?

Since last time, the article has undergone a major copy-edit and is now much improved.

Thanks for your time friend. Best regards.--MarshalN20 Talk 22:49, 15 February 2014 (UTC)

Pictogramas

Olá Parutakupiu, estou a editar artigos de eventos multiesportivos e notei que pictogramas de alguns esportes estão em qualidade muito baixa, quando existem. Sei que você é o melhor editor da wiki mundial pra isso, então se não for abuso gostaria de pedir pictogramas para alguns esportes, quando você puder é claro:

  • Biatlo paralímpico
  • Esqui alpino paralímpico
  • Esqui cross-country paralímpico
  • Curling em cadeira de rodas
  • Hóquei sobre trenó
  • Fisiculturismo
  • Paraquedismo
  • Pentatlo aeronáutico
  • Pentatlo militar
  • Pentatlo naval
  • Surfe

Atenciosamente, Wallinson (talk) 02:44, 9 March 2014 (UTC)

Olá Wallinson. Não queria deixar-te pendurado sem resposta, mas queria avisar-te que não tenho disponibilidade imediata para fazer pictogramas. Ainda para mais, não conheço alguns deles nem as suas características particulares, o que implicaria alguma pesquisa para poder idealizar um desenho que seja associável com esse desporto. Mas vou tentar não me esquecer do teu pedido. Se passar muito tempo sem eu dar uma resposta, não hesites em relembrar-me. Cumprimentos. Parutakupiu (talk) 16:52, 9 March 2014 (UTC)

1988 Giro

Hey Parutakupiu ,

You reviewed the article 1988 Giro d'Italia for me for FA maybe a year ago, but the nomination stalled and eventually didn't pass. Now I have it up again for FA and one person has put in a solid review. I was just wondering if you could run through it again, provided you have the time and would like to. Thanks for your time, Disc Wheel (Talk + Tontributions) 02:43, 19 May 2014 (UTC)

Teofilo cubillas picture

Hi, first of all awesome work with the FC Porto page, as a fan of the club im really happy that someone did such a nice work. Im still a newcomer on Wikipédia and i think that the picture of Teofilo Cubillas that i put earlier would look great on the page but i dont know how to properly license it, if i can license it correctly can i put the picture in replacement of the current one? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tesd52 (talkcontribs) 01:04, 9 July 2014 (UTC)

Thanks for the words. As a Porto fan myself, it was long overdue that the club's page on English Wikipedia had a proper history section. It was a long task, but the final result is worth it (I guess). About the picture: as I said in the edit summary, I hope I could use that (and many other Porto-related images around the web) in the article, but the use of images here is very restricted, particularly those which have a copyright or whose copyright status and source (place obtained) are not known. For example, the Cubillas picture you uploaded was taken from a blog – which is not accepted in Wikipedia, since images in blogs are probably picked from somewhere else and usually the author is not referenced, etc. The date of creation of the image is also important since it can allow you to know if a copyright exists or not under certain conditions. Again, the Cubillas picture was taken between 1974 and 1977 (when he played in Porto) – under Portuguese law, if the image has copyright restrictions (imposed by its author) these would only disappear after a time corresponding to the "life of author + 70 years", meaning that you can use the image freely only 70 years after the author's death. In this case, this criterium is not fulfilled yet, so the image is still probably under copyright (even if we don't known its author...)
This is all very complicated and I have a hard time understanding it also, but there are Wikipedia guidelines that can help you with that. Also, you can ask if an image is OK to be used here before uploading it. Bottomline is: 1) really old images are OK to use in Wikipedia because that "life of author + 70 years" is well surpassed, and 2) images in public domain or another free-use licence (the author releasing copyrights under certain manageable conditions, such as mentioning the author's name) are usually uploaded not to Wikipedia but to Wikimedia Commons (free image database). Cheers! Parutakupiu (talk) 01:59, 9 July 2014 (UTC)
I understand, probably I won't use this image because i can't find one that isn't on a blog so let's just leave the one that is now :) but again really nice work and I hope that this season we have more trophies to put on the page, cheers.

Bias

I can smell you are a fan of FC Porto. 85.246.179.195 (talk) 15:58, 22 July 2014 (UTC)

I don't hide it from anyone, I even have a userbox saying it in my userpage. Now to what made you say that: yes, I concur that the words used to describe both Porto and Lisbon are POV. However, they were not my words, but those used by FIFA in the source articles, so I was merely quoting. Still, I will not go against your edit, because I agree that it removes bias and reestablishes neutrality. Thanks. Parutakupiu (talk) 16:52, 22 July 2014 (UTC)

F.C. Porto honours

Put back the runners-up dates, all of the other big clubs like Real Madrid or Barcelona have those dates on their pages, its important and its considered an accomplishment also. Cheers. Tesd52 (talk) 13:05, 16 August 2014 (UTC)

Curiously, it's mostly the big Spanish club articles that have runner-up places. All other big European teams (e.g. Manchester United F.C., Chelsea F.C., Liverpool F.C., Manchester City F.C., A.C. Milan, Juventus F.C., FC Bayern Munich) don't have that. The guideline at WP:FOOTY allows the inclusion of runner-up placings, but also leaves the option to omit them if the club has plenty of titles. I think Porto has already many titles to have also the second places included. I just don't feel then that the section is properly titled as "Honours" then... maybe "Achievements" would be more adequate. OK, I will put back the content. Parutakupiu (talk) 14:32, 16 August 2014 (UTC)
Thanks for putting it back, i know that english and some italian clubs don't have the runners-up titles in their pages, but many leagues have them. For 'our' club is good not only because it's easier for people to have access to all of FC Porto finals, but for example the 1983–84 European Cup Winners' Cup was the first european final that we have reached so it's an important achievement. Maybe it would be a good move to name it "Achievements" because of the runners-up section, but "Honours" sounds better to me I don't know so I will leave that to you :) Anyway I think the page it's better like that so thanks again for hearing my opinion. Tesd52 (talk) 21:45, 16 August 2014 (UTC)

Porto Canal

Hi I need your opinion on the Porto Canal page, I was thinking about putting a small section with the logo and small text about the channel (with an entry to the main article) in the main page of F.C. Porto between the Organisation and the Personnel sections. The section would be called Media. If you don't think it will look please let me know, it is just an idea for now. Cheers. Tesd52 (talk) 17:27, 22 August 2014 (UTC)

Seems like a good idea, although I'd leave out the logo as its not a free-use image and should only be used in the channel's article. By the way, you add also mention the magazine Dragões in that section. Parutakupiu (talk) 18:47, 22 August 2014 (UTC)
Done it, on more thing is there a way of legalize the image so that we can use it in the main page? Tesd52 (talk) 21:24, 22 August 2014 (UTC)
Good news: you can use the logo image afterall, it has a free-to-use license. :) Parutakupiu (talk) 20:29, 22 August 2014 (UTC)
Nice i'm going to put it then, thanks :D Tesd52 (talk) 21:31, 22 August 2014 (UTC)
Thanks i couldn't put the logo right. Cheers Tesd52 (talk) 00:22, 23 August 2014 (UTC)

Re: Pre-2004/05 UEFA Cup season style

Looking at the 2002–03 UEFA Cup, I think dividing the matches into two or three articles is the most reasonable choice. Right now we divide the Europa League matches into three articles, so a similar partitioning will look something like this:

  1. Qualifying round
  2. First round and second round
  3. Round of 32 to Final (24 teams from UEFA Cup + 8 third placed teams from Champions League group stage, so this is consistent with the knockout phase of the UEFA Cup/Europa League after the group stage has been introduced)

Or we can combine #1 and #2, or #2 and #3, and get two articles, depending on the number of matches in each group.

As for UEFA.com's partitioning, I think it is just their retrospective way of organizing the matches, and it is not intuitive at all (plus the number of matches in the final eight is too small anyway). Chanheigeorge (talk) 15:38, 24 August 2014 (UTC)

Well, "knockout phase" is a bit strange since the first two rounds are also knockout. The similar article for the 2004–05 use the name 2004–05 UEFA Cup final phase, so maybe "final phase" is better. Chanheigeorge (talk) 16:14, 24 August 2014 (UTC)

Baku 2015

Hi! Just noticed all the reorganization of Baku 2015 wiki page with the change of the name overall... Is there any reason behind?

Hello. The reason for the article name change is that, for Wikipedia purposes, it should not include the host city name. Check similar articles for other major sport/multi-sport events (Olympics, World Championships, World Cups, etc.) so you can see what I'm saying. However, other common namings, like "Baku 2015" or "Baku 2015 European Games", can still be mentioned in the lead. Regarding the overall reorganization, it seemed to me that some related sections could be reunited under the same topic, and that's what I did. Regards.

Hi Parutakupiu!

I'm not sure how much you know about past seasons, but I was wondering if you could help me find all the captains for the personnel and kits section? I have managed to find information about managers, kit manufacturers and shirt sponsors (excluding Vitória de Setúbal) for all the clubs via research, but I have only managed to find captains for the major clubs (Benfica, Porto and Sporting CP) and two mid-table clubs (Boavista and Vitória de Setúbal).

Vandalism on FC Porto main page

Hi Parutakupiu, could you please help me? Some IP users vandalized the squad section, I put the current squad back to normal but I can't seem to fix the out on loan section... If you could, can you try to fix it and if possible could you put a block to prevent these types of vandalism from these people, thank you. Tesd52 (talk) 12:30, 16 February 2015 (UTC)

Fixed the section. As for blocking IPs, I don't have such powers, but if they insist on vandalizing the page, you can request page protection at WP:RPP or using the Twinkle (TW) command. Parutakupiu (talk) 13:19, 16 February 2015 (UTC)
I understand but thank you for fixing the section, if they keep doing this I will request that. Tesd52 (talk) 17:15, 16 February 2015 (UTC)

Doubt

Hello Parutakupiu, from Portugal (I imagine like yourself),

a polite question: why was the PORTUGAL INTERNATIONAL FOOTBALLERS category removed from the Danilo Luís Hélio Pereira article? He is a full international as of now (I am 100% against the use of naturalized footballers, but the fact is that he is), maybe just a human mistake on your part, happens to the best.

Happy editing, happy weekend --84.90.219.128 (talk) 17:26, 3 July 2015 (UTC)

You're right, my mistake. I forgot he has already debuted for the senior team. Thanks for reverting. Cheers. Parutakupiu (talk) 17:33, 3 July 2015 (UTC)

Help in copyedit

Hi, I noticed you're edit in Benfica in European football, which was a noticeable improvement. I edited that article with text, because I've visited other pages for comparison and Porto page on the subject is very good, a featured article. The Benfica managers I remodelled was also heavily inspired by your Porto managers. Can you copyedit the remaining article on European football? I don't doubt you can be unbiased, and your skills in article development are far greater than mine, so say something. --Threeohsix (talk) 21:51, 12 June 2015 (UTC)

Olá. Yes, I can help you copyediting the rest of the article, no prob. Parutakupiu (talk) 22:25, 12 June 2015 (UTC)
Thanks, it's looks much better, easier to read. When you have the "raw information", you just need to tweak it to improve it. It's takes way longer to write from scratch. I may came by to ask you for help copyediting other articles. --Threeohsix (talk) 11:09, 14 June 2015 (UTC)
You're welcome. Yes, the effort is much bigger when you have to start from zero – I know that too well. But it's also sometimes tricky to turn around some prose to give it more clarity without losing important information. Anyways, all depending of my availability, I'll have no problem with helping you with other articles. Parutakupiu (talk) 17:08, 14 June 2015 (UTC)
Hey man, I'm back to ask you're help. I've done some tweaking on the 1992–93 S.L. Benfica season, and I need you're skills for copyedit. I've tried to be real careful with readability, NPOV and such, but some weasel words might appear. Tell me what you think.--Threeohsix (talk) 17:20, 1 July 2015 (UTC)
I'll give it a look in the next days. Parutakupiu (talk) 00:16, 2 July 2015 (UTC)
Sick work! You must work very closely with the English language, with the way you turn the prose around. I try to give it consistency and readability but sometimes it is really hard to display everything without forgetting something. And even worst when it is a poor season for the club, you can just ignore the facts. Can you please, do the same in the following seasons? I've developed until 1998-99, and I want them to look the best as possible.--Threeohsix (talk) 20:00, 6 July 2015 (UTC)
Thanks. Yeah, I work on a daily basis with English so it gets more and more natural. Still far from a native level though. I can't promise that I'll copyedit all of them, but I'll do what I can, with the available time I have. Parutakupiu (talk) 08:59, 7 July 2015 (UTC)

Request for feedback

I noticed you're FLC in WPF. Looks pretty good, you should have no problem promoting it. I think you should add the WikiProject Portugal tag to it, since it's content related to Portugal. On a different subject, can you give a Peer review to Wikipedia:Peer review/S.L. Benfica/archive1? I didn't request it, but I'm afraid it's not bringing in much attention and it's a subject i'm interested. Thanks in any case.--Threeohsix (talk) 13:27, 26 October 2015 (UTC)

Threeohsix, from my experience PRs don't catch as much attention as FACs or FLCs. Usually, I do what you did and contact directly editors that are within the topic to help me out. I will see to it in the next days. ;) Parutakupiu (talk) 13:37, 26 October 2015 (UTC)

Feedback request in Clube Atlético Mineiro

Hi Parutakupiu! I've expanded an association football club article in the past few months (Clube Atlético Mineiro), but as I'm not an experienced editor and English is not my native language, I fear it may contain many problems unnoticed by me. I've listed it for a Peer review request, but I see Peer reviews don't get much attention. I understand you are an active experienced editor and reviewer of association football articles, and also a Portuguese speaker, and as such I'm here to ask your help in that Peer review. Thanks in advance! Felipe Bini (talk) 14:36, 4 November 2015 (UTC)

Oi, Felipe. I'll try to give it a look in the next days. Parutakupiu (talk) 15:59, 4 November 2015 (UTC)

Hi!

I made some changes on Sousa's IPA entry, to match other Portuguese sportspeople entries. I hope you agree with it.

Best regards, SOAD KoRn (talk) 00:17, 3 November 2015 (UTC)

Hi SOAD KoRn. I guess its fine, although I've seen that, for example, Rafael Nadal has the IPA pronounciation of his full name. Darn, all that work... (kidding :P). Regards (and congrats for maintaining his page at such a high level!) Parutakupiu (talk) 00:29, 3 November 2015 (UTC)
Yeah, I know it takes loads of time (I remember the 1st time I did it)! That's why I really wanted to know your opinion :)
Thanks! It is my hope that one day my work in Portuguese tennis pages reaches the level of quality of your contributions in football and Olympics. Best regards, SOAD KoRn (talk) 00:45, 3 November 2015 (UTC)
You're getting there, SOAD KoRn. Give me a call if you ever take João Sousa's page(s) through WP:PR, WP:GAC or WP:FAC. Be glad to help, if I have the time. Cumps. Parutakupiu (talk) 01:18, 3 November 2015 (UTC)
I deeply thank your support! When the time comes for it, I will definitely keep you in touch. Best regards, SOAD KoRn (talk) 15:55, 3 November 2015 (UTC)
One question popped my head: I see that you refered the WP:PR. During Sousa's article failed GA nomination earlier this year, it was recommended to send the article for WP:GOCER. Which one do you believe would be more helpful right now? (Btw, thanks for copy-editing Sousa's career statistics. I'm thinking about taking it through WP:FLC sometime soon) SOAD KoRn (talk) 02:55, 5 November 2015 (UTC)
In terms of feedback, you'd probably be better served on WP:GOCE (the backlog at WP:PR is kinda big...), but they would only help with a very specific aspect (prose quality) from the many that you need to bring an article to a level of excellence. Still, you always have WP:GAC and ultimately WP:FAC for those other points, and João's article is at a more than adequate level to face such evaluation processes. Parutakupiu (talk) 10:26, 5 November 2015 (UTC)
Good points, I agree with you. I moved forward with a WP:GOCE request just now, I really feel the article asking for it. The other issues could be addressed after that first process is done. I will keep you posted! SOAD KoRn (talk) 14:34, 5 November 2015 (UTC)
Just wanna inform you that I just put Sousa's career statistics on WP:FLC :) Regards, SOAD KoRn (talk) 15:31, 6 November 2015 (UTC)

Belgium NFT: c/e request

Hi, I've noticed how you helped MarshalN20 in copy-editing the Peru national football team article towards FA-status, and how you enriched the prose of S.L. Benfica-related articles. I think you can give the good article Belgium national football team the last push it needs before I'd nominate it as FAC, so I warmly invite you to take a look. Cheers, Kareldorado (talk) 09:27, 1 November 2015 (UTC)

FAC

To keep you updated: this article you helped to improve further is now a featured article candidate. I'm curious how it will be accepted (hopefully not bashed too hard). Kareldorado (talk) 10:37, 21 November 2015 (UTC)

WIP: Portuguese tennis records

Hi Parutakupiu! Hope you're doing great :)

I've been recently working on a project to introduce a list with every major Portuguese tennis records (see here in my sandbox). I'm thinking about moving it in the next days into the main Wiki area, under the tentative name List of Portuguese tennis records and statistics. I would be moving along with it this Tennis in Portugal template.

I would like to have your opinion on the list, whether it might be accepted or not by the community, as well as some insights on which criteria we could adopt for Portuguese players notability on the template.

Cumps, SOAD KoRn (talk) 20:06, 25 November 2015 (UTC)

Olá SOAD KoRn. I'm good, thanks. Hope you're doing well, too.
I saw your list and I think it has potential but it is still a bit "drafty" to make a better evaluation. It needs prose to provide the necessary context and better guide the reader through the listed items. From what I could tell, it appears that you only have statistics for now. What about the "records" part? Is it in your to-do list?
The template looks amazing! Regarding player notability, have you checked WP:NSPORT and in particular WP:NTENNIS? They can help you reach a decision regarding inclusion criteria.
Keep up the work, it's looking pretty good! Cumps. Parutakupiu (talk) 20:27, 25 November 2015 (UTC)
I agree, the list still has a long way to go. No prose and no historical tennis background in Portugal yet. Maybe I will do it together with the "Tennis in Portugal" article I would like to create as well.
Honestly, I am a bit unsure on how I will approach the records part. I thought about creating a "First to..." section, but I don't feel like it's enough. I'm not sure whether I will find reliable sources specific records such as match duration but I will give it a try. I will analyze more lists in the next days to see if I find a solution for it.
Thanks! I will definitely reach them for feedback, that was a great idea :)

João Sousa career statistics

Viva!

Thanks for your latest on Sousa's statistics article! It seems we edited almost at the same time, but no harm was done :) The new link for ref 17 was a great catch, how did you find it? I could not find either ref 13 or 17 through Record search motor..

Cumps, SOAD KoRn (talk) 17:44, 6 January 2016 (UTC)

Olá! No prob, I saw your last edit was on 30 December, and since the FLC is getting old I thought about addressing myself those comments. As for the new link, I guessed the url had just changed because of Record's recent facelift, so I just googled the news title. I was just now formatting the whole career titles section... but I don't know if you changed anything that I'd get edit-conflicted... Parutakupiu (talk) 17:48, 6 January 2016 (UTC)
Yeah, unfortunately, real life caught up with me in the last weeks and I could not be very active.
I just did the same for ref 13, and it worked. I can correct that link.
I only corrected what Rambling Man asked in the tables and added 2016 columns everywhere. If you'd like, you can send everything you did to User:SOAD KoRn/sandbox5 and I can cross-check the edits. It's cool :) SOAD KoRn (talk) 17:53, 6 January 2016 (UTC)
OK, will do that. Parutakupiu (talk) 17:54, 6 January 2016 (UTC)
I just saw your edit at the sandbox, it's perfect! That will fix the wikilinks which (somehow?!?) I forgot to attend to. Those font-sizes have been very troublesome for me, sometimes I just don't know what to do with them eheh..
Can I add it to the article or you wanna do it yourself? SOAD KoRn (talk) 18:17, 6 January 2016 (UTC)
Thanks, glad you liked it. I also used to worry about the normal font size messing up tables. Ultimately, it all goes down to the user's screen resolution, as with higher resolutions the table content is almost sure not to not wrap, even at font size of 100%. With lower resolutions (like my monitor screen), one can add style="white-space:nowrap" to the table code to prevent wrapping relevant content and maintain good aesthetics. Parutakupiu (talk) 18:49, 6 January 2016 (UTC)
That's exactly what I was looking for to fix table sizes. During the weekend, I will have some time to update everything I've meaning to and that will be a major help! Thanks for the tip SOAD KoRn (talk) 19:31, 6 January 2016 (UTC)

Review GAN

Hi, I came here asking for your help again. I've successfully promoted 1999–2000 S.L. Benfica season which was reviewed in just a few days, but my GAN from 10 September of the 2000–01 S.L. Benfica season article is stuck. I though of you to review it, since there's no conflict of interest (being a Porto supporter) and you know Portuguese, probably even remember the season events. The article should be ready to pass a GA review (much lower standards than a FA), but you can name things you don't like and I'll try to fix them (if they are fixable). This shouldn't be a labour intensive task, like a request for c/e, so it won't take a lot of your time, so let me know if you accept it.--Threeohsix (talk) 15:16, 17 January 2016 (UTC)

OK Threeohsix, but do you mind if I do that during this weekend? Parutakupiu (talk) 20:03, 20 January 2016 (UTC)
Hi again, I've put two more season articles up for review, 2001-02 and 2002-03. When you have some time, please review them. They're both similar in style to 2000-01, but you could suggest any change or improvement for me to do.--Threeohsix (talk) 19:12, 17 February 2016 (UTC)
I hate to come here again bugging you, but the pool of skilled Portuguese editors is tiny. Can you have a look at Portuguese Handball League Cup, Portuguese Volleyball Super Cup and António Pratas Trophy. This is not a request to c/e, but for feedback on something I've might have overlooked. I think their prose is good quality, especially considered the aversion to prose that this type of articles usually have. But since I believe we can always do better than just dumping stats, I had a go at it. What you think?--Threeohsix (talk) 21:03, 26 February 2016 (UTC)
Hey Threeohsix. I took a quick look at these articles and I can only applaud the major improvement that you brought to them. What a difference! But the most significant contribution you did is that you added sourced prose, instead of just throwing unreferenced content into the page. Kudos for that! It's also nice that you could provide images for the three trophies. Keep the good work! Parutakupiu (talk) 14:17, 27 February 2016 (UTC)

João Sousa GA nom

Boas! It's been a while since we last spoke :)

Real life has been keeping from editing here often, but today I finally managed to give some time to João Sousa's GA nomination review. After several months, someone has picked it up! However, I got really surprised about the reviewer's latest comments. He is saying that the article is not good enough for a full review, but I checked the criteria and I can't find out how he would come up with such conclusion.

Could you give me any idea on what to do to defend the article and my position? Most of his comments so far have been on grammar, and I find it odd since the article got a c/e and the reviewer himself seems to have spelling issues. But especially, I don't want to wait 6 more months just to find someone who would be willing to do a review.

I'm sorry to bother you out of the blue, but I just don't know what to do. By the way, you can check the review process here.

Abraço! SOAD KoRn (talk) 17:56, 13 April 2016 (UTC)

Hey there. Long time no "see", indeed. :)
This is an example of why I don't believe much in the mechanism of GA review; relying on the criteria/opinion of a single user, who may or may not have proven expertise in evaluating article quality. I prefer taking an article through directly to FAC (or peer review before that) than having to endure all this time and landing a reviewer that does not bother or commit to the review.
I also see no major flaws in the article (I can take another sweep to it) to explain the reviewer's stance. Can you close the nomination, if you want?
Abraço. Parutakupiu (talk) 19:59, 13 April 2016 (UTC)
Didn't think about it, but I have to agree that taking the article directly through FAC might be the best option next time. I am really disappointed that after waiting for so long, the GAN review is below-par right now. Especially after all the work put through in order to fix the issues arisen during the first review.
I appreciate if you do it, even though the article didn't have major changes since we last worked on it. Next weekend I will take a look into the sources, some of them will likely be dead after all this time. Also, I need to write post-Australian Open events in 2016 section.
I believe I can close it, but I'm not sure whether I can make a case for someone to pick it up for review immediately after, instead of having to wait 6 more months. I just discovered this case where that happened, but it was a situation in which the reviewer was clearly sabotaging the review process. SOAD KoRn (talk) 21:41, 13 April 2016 (UTC)

Featured Lists about Benfica

Hi, I've nominated my first two FL in Thursday. Like everything Portuguese related, I'm afraid it will not gather many interest, so I thought it would be better to came ask for feedback. Please have a view at List of S.L. Benfica players. Thanks in any case.--Threeohsix (talk) 17:34, 17 April 2016 (UTC)

Maps in under-19 and under-17 tournaments

Hello, Parutakupiu.

You made cool maps in pages 2016 UEFA European Under-19 Championship and 2016 UEFA European Under-17 Championship.

Can you make maps for similar women's tournaments (2016 UEFA Women's Under-19 Championship and 2016 UEFA Women's Under-17 Championship) for current and some past tournaments? GAV80 (talk) 21:43, 20 April 2016 (UTC)
