== Brazil Team Section ==

someone has vandalized the 1997 team list. please edit.  <span style="font-size: smaller;" class="autosigned">—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/117.198.224.166|117.198.224.166]] ([[User talk:117.198.224.166|talk]]) 22:31, 14 February 2011 (UTC)</span><!-- Template:UnsignedIP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

== Honours section ==

The honours section only acknowledges the bronze medal at the '96 Olympic Games. Can someone expand this to include the other things he won, especially including the World Cup. I'm unsure whether personal acheivements (Golden Shoe, World player of the year etc.) and domestic competitions won (I'm sure he'll have won the Copa Libertadores, Champions League, national leagues and cups some time in his career) etc. but I know for definite he hasn't just won a bronze in the Atlanta Olympics.

== Date of birth ==

According to the article, he was born on September 18th, but is listed on [[September 22]], which is the correct one? [[Special:Contributions/85.27.11.201|85.27.11.201]] ([[User talk:85.27.11.201|talk]]) 11:47, 15 February 2011 (UTC)

: See the above talk about Date of Birth, why the confuse.. September 22 is the correct one according to FIFA, Iv'e fixed it now, here is few refs for it aswell, [http://www.fifa.com/worldfootball/statisticsandrecords/players/player=92699/] [http://soccernet.espn.go.com/player/_/id/20123/ronaldo?cc=4716]<br />&nbsp;&nbsp;– ''[[User:HonorTheKing|HonorTheKing]] ([[User talk:HonorTheKing|talk]])'' 12:06, 15 February 2011 (UTC)

::Please see the [[/Archive_6#Date_of_Birth|section above]]. His father had to collect money and delayed for 4 days after Ronaldo's birth to register him, so 18 September is the correct one.

:And it discussed before, see [[/Archive_5#Wrong_date_of_birth|talk archive]].

==Surname==
His surname is "Nazário de Lima", as his father is "Nélio Nazário de Lima", while his mother is "Sônia dos Santos Barata" aka "Sônia Barata Nazário de Lima". The "Nazário de Lima" may came from the composite of grandfather and grandma surname but no source could verify it. So,  [[Template:Portuguese name]] isn't suitable.

<!-- Begin request -->

In the article about Ronaldo, the great Brazilian footballer, his birthdate is said to be September 18 1976. However, in the same article in other languages, thebirthdate is Semptember 22.

His official site (http://www.ronaldohome.com/) informs his birthdate as Semptember 22.

Please change the date in the English article and also the informations about Births in the pages of both days

Thanks

The Fifa squad sheet lists his birthday as 22nd September 1976, (http://www.fifa.com/worldcup/archive/germany2006/teams/team=43924.html) the Wikipedia page on 2006 world cup Squad lists his birth date as 22nd Sept as well. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2006_FIFA_World_Cup_squads#Brazil) I am not sure the source of 18th September as this is the first I have seen it.  <span style="font-size: smaller;" class="autosigned">— Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/41.203.222.30|41.203.222.30]] ([[User talk:41.203.222.30|talk]]) 16:05, 21 June 2011 (UTC)</span><!-- Template:UnsignedIP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

== Misplaced edit request ==

An editor has placed an edit request at template:Soccerbase that I think actually pertains to this article. [[Template talk:Soccerbase#Edit request from Thetahir1992, 21 May 2011]] If someone who knows the subject matter would review his concern, that would be awesome.
