Calm down[edit]

Why are you so angry? Did Christian Nzinga steal your last bag of Cheetos or something? --JonBroxton (talk) 00:00, 25 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Not angry but upset with your attitude and policy for collecting data. You can't find a picture that was never taken can you? How can you ask me to provide you sources of events that never took place? And I'm a bit upset because the response i got from Nzinga himself was not what i expected. It was a response that involved both me and my family. Polarman (talk) 02:11, 25 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

playerhistory.com[edit]

Hi. Could you tell me on what basis you are adding links to playerhistory.com to multiple football player articles? From what I can see of this website, it contains nothing that is not already in the Wikipedia article itself, or could not added to the article. Therefore, in accordance to external website links policy I have been removing them. But happy to hear what unique resource you think they are adding to the article. Thanks. --Escape Orbit ^(Talk) 17:50, 10 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Soccerdatabase/Playerhistory[edit]

Hello. I reverted some of your removals of the soccerdatabase.eu links. The site is a copy of former playerhistory.com which is a very usefull and fairly reliable generalistic football website (I supose you know it). Also, please don´t remove links from user pages as you did on my User:FkpCascais/Sandbox17, that is a personal page with no interference to WP articles. It is my choice to have them listed in the list of sources which are usefull for me. Anyway, you should contact and approach users first. Why are you removing the links by the way? Best regards, FkpCascais (talk) 00:14, 2 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, I see! Can I ask you if there are any problems with the new adress, or will it be available from now on under soccerdatabase.eu? I noteced you had problems in the past for adding the links, but I belave there is no reason whatsoever for you to remove the existing links from the articles where it is usefull. Personally, I have used it for several articles as complementary source, as in many ocasions it included data for certain players which is not found in any other sources. I see no reason for removing it from those cases, unless, of course, you know something I don´t. FkpCascais (talk) 00:22, 2 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Polarman (talk) 00:51, 2 August 2012 (UTC) I am the owner of the domain www.playerhistory.com, soccerdatabase.eu is a scam and will be removed asap. Therefor i want you to remove ALL links replacing playerhistory, and then delete playerhistory links until the new site is up running.[reply]

OK, I see. That is why I said "unless you know something I don´t", as once I was aware that you were the owner of playerhistory.com, I suposed you might have some valid reason for wanting to have the links removed. Anyway, as a football stats enthusiast, I want to congratulate you for having created such a great football website, and I hope you soon solve all the problems related to it.

It may not be a bad idea to drop a comment regarding this situation at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Football as we had this discussion recently. FkpCascais (talk) 03:15, 2 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Polarman (talk) 12:22, 2 August 2012 (UTC) It's a mirror site without made without my knowledge. I have put a lawyer on the case, and i prefer if you please remove all links regarding soccerdatabase.eu. We are currently working on a new solution for playerhistory. Polarman (talk) 15:18, 13 August 2012 (UTC) Is it possible to remove all soccerdatabase.eu link connected to playerhistory.com? Soccerdatabase is a scam site and has nothing todo with playerhistory.com[reply]

August 2012[edit]

Hello, I'm Jim1138. This might not have been intentional, but I noticed that you recently removed some content from Jeff Bryant (footballer) without explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an edit summary. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks, Jim1138 (talk) 00:30, 2 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

soccerdatabase.eu[edit]

Please see Wikipedia:Bot requests/Archive 49#soccerdatabase.eu - but be very careful when you mention legal action, per WP:NLT. Regards, Giant Snowman 13:53, 2 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Your account will be renamed[edit]

Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Polarman. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Polarman~enwiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name. If you think you might own all of the accounts with this name and this message is in error, please visit Special:MergeAccount to check and attach all of your accounts to prevent them from being renamed.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours,
Keegan Peterzell
Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation

If you do not like this account's new name, you can choose your own using this form after logging in: Special:GlobalRenameRequest. -- Keegan (WMF) (talk)
