Remove Russia from the map.

Please could someone remove Russia from the map as they will not enter the qualifying. Anttipng (talk) 15:43, 20 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

What's with the constant seething for? 47.185.105.210 (talk) 15:57, 20 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Play-offs

If I'm not mistaken, the countries ranked 51–55 can't reach the tournament through the play-offs. This should perhaps be made clear in this table? // Mattias321 (talk) 22:21, 27 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Mattias321: The teams in pots 4 and 5 will all be drawn into separate groups, and the top two teams of each group will qualify for Euro 2024. So theoretically, if every team from these pots qualify except for one of the League C group winners (Georgia, Greece, Turkey or Kazakhstan), the play-off spots must be passed to teams in a lower league, and thus could reach all the way to Liechtenstein.

@S.A. Julio: Ah sorry, forgot about that scenario... Thanks for correcting my mistake! // Mattias321 (talk) 18:15, 29 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Fixtures

When will the fixtures be added? as they have been release Japhes5005 (talk) 14:22, 10 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Luxembourg

Why could Luxembourg not be put into group H (Denmark, Finland, Slovenia) and group I (Switzerland, Israel, Romania), but group J? [1]

Any reply? -St3095 ^(?) 15:19, 15 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@St3095: Because group J was unavailable for both Kosovo and Kazakhstan. Kosovo-Bosnia is a prohibited clash due to politics, and Kazakhstan can't meet Portugal and Iceland in the same group due to excessive travel restriction. So Luxembourg had to be placed in that group. --BlameRuiner (talk) 14:37, 16 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@BlameRuiner: thanks. -St3095 ^(?) 13:47, 17 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

north of Ireland "flag"

That banner has not been officially used since the early 1970s. Why does it continue to be used on wikipedia for the northern team? 47.185.105.210 (talk) 15:58, 20 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The flag is used to represent the national team within FIFA. S.A. Julio (talk) 17:03, 21 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

And Portugal?

Portugal has got 3 points and four goals against Liechtenstein

portugal is in the second or first place 2001:8A0:F214:1E00:4934:F404:5D08:AE63 (talk) 23:05, 24 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Turkey or Turkiye?

Does this need changing now? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A00:23C4:8D48:1:8CE:719E:1C06:64C9 (talk) 14:58, 26 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The article for the country is located at Turkey. The national team articles should only be renamed if the article on the country is moved. S.A. Julio (talk) 20:57, 26 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Visualizing the play-offs

Would it make sense under the play-off section to highlight in green teams that would currently qualify directly, and in blue those that would qualify for a play-off path? I don't trust myself to mess around with the colors or I'd do it myself ArgoBargo (talk) 21:37, 27 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I like the idea. I think in previous EURO qualifyings it has also been done. I give it a try later Thmetzi (talk) 09:22, 28 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Overall rankings

It says some games haven't been played yet while most of the teams did play them. How did slovenia only play 1 game? They played 2 and won both so should have 6 points 84.30.65.18 (talk) 04:58, 28 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Matches against 6th place don't count. Otherwise, the teams in Group H, I, J would play more games than the teams in groups of 5, giving an unfair advantage on points. Mwiqdoh (talk) 05:09, 28 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Path play offs

If 14 or 15 automatically qualify from league A or B then the 2nd or 3rd places will go to Estonia, does the final place go to next league down or to D. Japhes23 Japhes23 (talk) 22:02, 28 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Japhes23: It would go by overall ranking, League D would not get additional places. You can see the full explanation here. S.A. Julio (talk) 02:19, 31 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Table rows highlighted in green

At present, the top two rows in the qualifying group for each table are highlighted in green, with "Qualify for final tournament" which makes it look as if those teams have already qualified. They haven't.

Could/should there be another colour (a more washed-out green perhaps?) for "Teams finishing in these positions will qualify" davidprior ^t/_c 23:02, 20 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
