Hi {{PAGENAME}}, I noticed you've contributed to pages related to the [[A-League]] competition - I started a [[Wikipedia:WikiProject A-League|WikiProject]] for it, and thought you might be interested in participating. Thanks! [[User:Albinomonkey|AlbinoMonkey]] <sup>([[User talk:Albinomonkey|Talk]])</sup> 05:46, 6 December 2005 (UTC)

==[[WP:AFL|WikiProject AFL]]==
G'day mate, I've gathered that you're an A-League fan, are you interested in other Aussie sport? If so, maybe you'd like to join [[WP:AFL|WikiProject AFL]]. There seems to be a lack of awareness that such a project exists due to the previous inactivity on this site. But it's here, and I hope you will join. Cheers, [[User:Rogerthat|Rogerthat]] 07:27, 18 December 2005 (UTC)

{{Wikipedia:WikiProject A-League/2005-06 players/User notice box}} Hi '''Rilstix'''!
I just wanted to let you know about the big [[Wikipedia:WikiProject A-League|WikiProject A-League]] 2005&ndash;06 player project. It is an attempt to bring the articles on every player who played in the A-League in 2005&ndash;06 up to standard. Check out the '''[[Wikipedia:WikiProject A-League/2005-06 players|main page]]''' for the player project to get the full list of players as well as useful links and stats to help out. Hopefully we can get the full list done before the beginning of the 2006&ndash;07 season. Don't forget to update the [[Wikipedia:WikiProject A-League/2005-06 players/Current counts|counts]] (they will automatically update the status bar) as you go. Thanks! [[User:Albinomonkey|AlbinoMonkey]] <sup>([[User talk:Albinomonkey|Talk]])</sup> 10:16, 5 May 2006 (UTC)

== About your message on 203.173.42.7's talk page ==

If this address is a school's shared IP as you stated on its talk page, then add <nowiki>{{SharedIP|Name_of_school}}</nowiki> to the top of [[User talk:203.173.42.7]], replacing "Name_of_school" with the name of the school that uses this IP address. Thanks. [[User:Jesse Viviano|Jesse Viviano]] 03:15, 16 June 2006 (UTC)

|style="color:#000"|The first ever [[Wikipedia:WikiProject A-League|Wikiproject A-League]] newsletter is here! The [[A-League 2006-07|2006-07 A-League season]] will bring the usual enjoyment and fanaticism that only [[football (soccer)|football/soccer]] can create. This new season also means a lot of (currently-open) tasks that require completion throughout the course of the next 21 weeks.

|-
| style="color:#000"|A Position Ladder will be placed on each team page, which will provide an up-to-date visualization of the current A-League standings. However, problems may occur when Position Ladders aren't updated with the new statistics that don't involve matches of the team whose page the Position Ladder resides on. To remedy this, a base Position Ladder will be created, which will be located at <nowiki>{{2006-07 A-League Position Ladder}}</nowiki> ([[Template:A-League 2006-07 Position Ladder|link]]). Please update this as soon as possible after the match has ended, as this will keep the Wikipedia community informed.
A few notes regarding the base Position Ladder:-
*Please '''do not''' [[Wikipedia:Template substitution|substitute]] the Position Ladder template on the team pages, as it won’t get automatically updated if you do.
*Please only update the Position Ladder at the end of a match, and if there is any large dispute about the result, do not add it, but instead wait for an official report by the [http://www.a-league.com.au A-League] confirming the result.
*When updating, make sure to adjust all of the below fields:-
**The ''played'' field – add one (eg. 13→14 etc.)
**Either the ''win'', ''loss'' or ''draw'' field, depending on the result for that team.
**The ''points'' field – either add 3 points (win), 1 point (draw) or leave the same (loss)
**The ''for'' and the ''against'' section
**Make sure you repeat this process for both teams – not just the team you follow!

We ask that, at every chance you get, you fill in the results of these Summary Tables – it only takes a few seconds, but it will help keep the uninformed "in the loop" – it is an encyclopedia we’re writing, after all.

As with the Position Ladders, a few notes about the Summary Tables:-
*Please place the winner in bold text (using <nowiki>'''winning team'''</nowiki>).
*With the crowd figures, please only place a comma if the attendance is over 10,000 people (eg. use 8648 instead of 8,468 and 11,482 instead of 11482).

; A-League News

* The [[A-League 2006-07|2006-07 A-League season]] is now two rounds old, with the early front-runners being [[Queensland Roar]] and [[Melbourne Victory]].

* [[Adelaide United]] won the [[A-League 2006-07#Pre-Season Cup|Pre-Season Cup]], defeating [[Central Coast Mariners]] 5-4 on penalties.


; Project News

* The '''[[Wikipedia:WikiProject A-League/Player project|Player project]]''' has been moved, overhauled and refined. It now is not limited to the 2005-06 player list. However, only {{Wikipedia:WikiProject A-League/Player project/percent complete}}% of articles are considered "complete", and hopefully we can get this figure to approach 100% by the end of the season.

* Major changes to the layout of the '''[[A-League 2006-07|2006-07 A-League season]]''' page have taken place recently, and an infobox created. A table for attendances, as well as top scorer etc. are now in place. All users are encouraged to update the scores for completed matches as they come in.

* Recently, [[Perth Glory F.C.]] was moved to '''[[Perth Glory FC]]''' after no objections were raised at the Wikiproject talk page. All links to the old page (including various templates) were changed.

* The project requires '''[[Wikipedia:Pictures|pictures]]''' of games and stadiums to help improve articles. Any pictures are much appreciated.

* '''[[Portal:A-League|The A-League Portal]]''' has been set up. Feel free to update the scores, and make sure you check out the selected article and picture each fortnight.

* The '''[[Wikipedia:WikiProject A-League/Awards|football (soccer) barnstar]]''' has recently became the official award of the Wikiproject. Feel free to hand it out to anyone you see making excellent contributions to all things [[A-League]] related.

* Since the last newsletter was distributed (on August 5, 2006), four new '''[[Wikipedia:WikiProject A-League#Members|members]]''' have graced our ever-growing list: {{User|Wantok}}, {{User|Ronan.evans}}, {{user|Tiefighter}} and {{User|Mattythewhite}}. To these new users, welcome from all the Wikiproject members!

==Expansion of WP:A-League==
Hi {{PAGENAME}},

Just thought I'd let you know there is currently a proposal to expand [[Wikipedia:WikiProject A-League|WikiProject A-League]] to include all areas of football/soccer in Australia, including the NSL, A-League, Socceroos, state leagues and more. A more formal proposal page can be found '''[[User:Albinomonkey/WikiProject Football (soccer) in Australia|here]]'''. Please indicate whether you support the idea or not at [[Wikipedia talk:WikiProject A-League]], and also add your 2[[cent (currency)|c]] about what the new project should be called. Cheers! &ndash; [[User:Albinomonkey|AlbinoMonkey]] <sup>([[User talk:Albinomonkey|Talk]])</sup> 04:09, 19 October 2006 (UTC)
