Oscar Gobern

[edit]

Hi, you reverted my edit of the Oscar Gobern claiming I deleted infomation from the page, which if you care to look again...I didn't. I simply moved the infomation about his brother from the intro into a sub section called "Personal Life" as I tidyed the page up into intro, career, personal life, references, external links etc etc. I also updated the fact that his brother Lewis now "last played for Grimsby Town" as he was released yesterday...you reverted that as well. Its probably misunderstanding on your part so thats why I thought I'd clear it up. Just to let you know I've undone your undo of my edit. Thanks Footballgy (talk) 10:00, 8 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Walter Ehrich

[edit]

Hi. This is the third time that you have attempted to delete Walter Ehrich, without addressing my points on the talk page of that article. The article is clearly notable, and the controversies referred to are fully referenced. Therefore, your various claims, including that the article contains legal threats and is libellous are completely untrue. Your continued attempts to have the article deleted are without basis, and it is for this reason that I kindly ask you to refrain from doing so in future.

Wikipedia is not censored, and content is not removed on the sole grounds of perceived offensiveness. The fact that you may not personally like an article is completely irrelevant to the issue of whether it should be allowed. The fact that you have not engaged in discussion on the talk page and tried to reach consensus prohibits you from continuing to trying to have the article deleted. As a result, I am again removing your deletion notice. Apollo1986 (talk) 5 February 2011. —Preceding undatedcomment added 07:59, 5 February 2011 (UTC).[reply]

Declined PROD: Milan Lalkovič

[edit]

Hey, just wanted to let you know that I've declined the PROD at Milan Lalkovič. I think that there are valid questions of notability, and I've got no problems with you wanting to take it to Articles for Deletion if you'd like, but I felt that the substantial amount of coverage, some of it quite recent, available in Gnews suggests that Milan may be notable under the general notability guideline even though he may not meet the special notability requirement for football, and it is sufficient for notability for him to only meet the GNG. Have a great weekend! --je deckertalk to me18:22, 6 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

NYSOPRHP document issue

The document reader New York's Historic Preservation Office uses requires JavaScript (they began the document-imaging process before Adobe decided to stop enforcing the .PDF patent, I suspect, and didn't have time to change when it did).

John Wilkinson

[edit]

Hey there. I stuck the "association" in there because I wasn't sure over the name. I assume but wasn't certain if he was English, and didn't have his DOB. Before the article was moved, John Wilkinson (footballer) was interpreted by the search as John Wilkinson (Footballer), which redirects to John Wilkinson. The history can be seen here. I'll leave it to your judgement, but just thought it best to make sure you had all the info. Regards, —WFC17:12, 10 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

José Fonte - Reply and appreciation

[edit]

Hi there KANGAROO, VASCO here,

thanks for your help in this player's article. Most obliged, i will now relieve you of the burden of that doubt :) In FORADEJOGO.net player's articles, the "V" stands for red cards (as in "Vermelho", red in Portuguese), the "A" for yellow ones ("Amarelo").

Keep up the good work, happy weekend from Portugal - --Vasco Amaral (talk) 21:05, 10 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  • Again, i must say i highly appreciated your help in Fonte's article. However, now, as i provided some refs in the PORTUGAL section, i found out you removed ZEROZERO.PT (English version) in the external links. Please don't, its as customary for Portuguese footballers as FORADEJOGO. Regards, keep it up - --Vasco Amaral (talk) 22:15, 10 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Doubt-clearing and "mind-resting"

[edit]

Hi there KANG, VASCO here,

regarding your doubt, in Portuguese "Fonte" is does not carry and accent. In English, it would be normally read "Fonti", but it's more of a mute sound in Portuguese, more or less like "Font". Hope that helps man!

Regarding the Thiago Motta bit, even though i noticed it was you who made the change after checking edit history, my comment was in no way a "declaration of war", exactly the opposite, it means i do not wish for any edit wars to escalate between me and any well-intended users (such as yourself). I know most of that team's player's infoboxes read "INTERNAZIONALE" (not that i have edited much there, just judging from previous WP:FOOTY discussions), it's just i thought "INTER" sufficed 100% well. We would have "INTER" for Italian team, "INTERNACIONAL" forthe Brazilian side...

Attentively, happy week and keep up the good work - --Vasco Amaral (talk) 18:06, 13 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Jeb Gascoyne‎

[edit]

Hi DaeK, many many thanks. I have started to incorporate it into Thomas Gascoyne (cyclist)‎. While I was scraping around I swear that I went to every Google source, and I wondered why the Otago Witness was absent. ...but it was just my poor technique I guess. When I created Len Hurst it was also the OtWit that had the best information, amazing, the other side of the world, several months sailing, but fantastically well informed. Regards Chienlit (talk) 21:35, 17 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

as per your Q on my my page. Nope. I can't explain why the Otago Witness was such an authoritative journal. Why is Amateur such an amazing source for English brick maker Len Hurst? Maybe they had nothing better to do in Otago than read every European publication and distil stuff (words) to sustain contact with 'the old country'. I have no idea (yet) if he raced in NZ. regards.

Lenham

Re: The Times, you're in the UK, aren't you. Do you have a library card? That may give you access without needing to pay for a subscrption, as it does in Kent. I've found a Times ref to him playing, but not as a goalie. Am adding the info to the Lenham article now.Mjroots (talk) 07:49, 18 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hi - I am currently trying to put together an article on R.S.F. Walker, who played football for Scotland in the pseudo-internationals of 1870-72. The inscription on his statue (see[1]) says that he was selected for Scotland v England at Rugby in 1873. Can you shed any light on this? Cheers. -- Daemonic Kangaroo(talk) 17:17, 20 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Unlike the inscription on the statue which seems to infer that Robert Sandilands Frowd Walker played for Scotland at rugby, according to PDF he was born in Great Boughton, Cheshire and played for England at both association and rugby football. However, the only Walker playing for England rugby at this time appears to be Roger Walker who played 5-matches between 1874 and 1880, it appears the first Walkers to play for Scotland came later, and were the brothers Archibald Walker in 1881, and James Walker in 1882. According to ESPNScrum, Roger Walker was born inBury which although not a million miles from Great Broughton (about 50-miles in truth), it's not exactly close. The birth place of Great Broughton on 13 May 1850 appears to be confirmed here, if he did reside at Scotts Lodge, Knockholt, Sevenoaks, Kent, in his latter years, his place of death may beduring April→June of 1917 in Bromley District. I wonder whether the confusing inscription of "He played for England vs Scotland at association football", and "and was selected for Scotland vs England at rugby football", means that he was selected not for Scotland, but for the Scotland vs England match, which would infer that Scotland were at home. Perhaps :Bcp67, FruitMonkey, Kwib, or the WikiProject Rugby union, might have more details. Best Regards. DynamoDegsy (talk) 22:05, 20 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
He was actually born in Chester Castle, which is in the registration district of Great Boughton. His father John was an ordnance storekeeper there. Kvaratschelia (talk) 14:02, 26 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Alfred Tinnebaum

[edit]

Hi-you look at the article about Alfred Tinnenbaum last October. He was supposed to be a honorary governor of Iowa Territory. I look at some of the citations and there was no mention of Alfred Tinnebaum. I suspect this is a hoax. I did a Google search and this individual did not turn up. Something tells me this is a college students prank. I do not think the US Government would this individual a honorary governor of a US territory in the process of being admitted to the Union.

Where are these discussions you mention? I can't remember ever having seen one that concluded that being a runner-up deserves mentioning. –PeeJay 16:24, 1 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Warsop's view is based on contemporary newspaper reports from "The Field", "The Sportsman", "The Sporting Life" and "Bell's Life in London". For the Engineers' goal, all four papers' reports state that Morris took a throw-in, following which there was a scrimmage and the ball was forced through the posts. If Gibbons is sure that Morris scored the goal, one has to wonder exactly where he got that info from if all the main papers of the say say otherwise, but if you could provide the full citation I will mention it in the article. The reports are less clear-cut with regard to Wanderers' second goal - The Field says "a free kick soon fell to Kinnaird and, after a short scrimmage, a second goal was secured" which would mean that Kinnaird did not score it. The Sportsman, though, says "after a free kick by Kinnaird the ball was a second time driven between the Engineers' posts", which could be interpreted either way - I'll mention that the reports are unclear. Does all that make sense..........? -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 21:05, 6 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

how does this qualify as a "good faith" edit (please see here http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Hugo_Viana&diff=412032159&oldid=407369332)? Clearly vandalism to me, and i also see the same "user" undid you at Olivier Bernard.

You are revert-warring with Twinkle, against what you acknowledge to be a good-faith edit. Please stop.

As for the substance: Almost all of that article is in ODNB, as indicated (most of it is in the more accessible DNB, supplement for 1900-1910). This could be more clearly indicated, but it is a reference to an eminently reliable source. If you see anything in the articlenot in ODNB, the proper course is to say what it is; that's what {{cn}} and the talk page are for. SeptentrionalisPMAnderson 19:03, 11 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Please take a moment to look at the suggested tasks for patrollers and review thecriteria for speedy deletion. Particularly, the section covering non-criteria. Such pages are best tagged with proposed deletion, proposed deletion for biographies of living persons, or sent to the appropriatedeletion discussion. elektrikSHOOS 21:51, 31 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
