Brazil Team Section

someone has vandalized the 1997 team list. please edit. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 117.198.224.166 (talk) 22:31, 14 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

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? 85.27.11.201 (talk) 11:47, 15 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

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, [1] [2]
– HonorTheKing (talk) 12:06, 15 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Please see the 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. Matthew_hk t c 16:27, 15 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

And it discussed before, see talk archive. Matthew_hk t c 16:43, 15 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

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.

Edit request from 83.174.34.4, 21 April 2011

This edit request has been answered. Set the |answered= or |ans= parameter to no to reactivate your 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

Not done: A personal web site isn't always reliable so we would need another source. ~~EBE123~~ ^talk_Contribs 20:28, 23 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Many sites claimed the official site of Ronaldo, the site above is a wordpress generated fans site. Matthew_hk t c 11:56, 7 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

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. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 41.203.222.30 (talk) 16:05, 21 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

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.

Diapers During 99 America's Cup Tournament

I don't know for sure how accurate article is as Arabic is not my first language, but I thought someone who cares should take a look and add it if the content is deemed legitimate. KlappCK (talk) 14:25, 30 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I found a similar article [3]. KlappCK (talk) 14:25, 30 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
