Page Blanking

edit

On 03-June, you blanked Andy mccray. Blanking pages is generally considered a bad idea. Blanking is not the same as deleting. If you believe a redirect should be deleted, please follow the redirect portion of the deletion procedures. I have nominated this redirect (and a related one) for deletion. Thanks! -- JLaTondre 22:59, 6 June 2006 (UTC)Reply

Hi, ach ... I just wanted to give you a heads up. It's very hard to see what your edits marked "link" are doing (F.C --> F.C.), so people might think it's vandalism and revert your changes. If you'd give a longer, more descriptive edit summary, it would help (something like correct link of F.C to F.C.). Regards, SandyGeorgia (Talk) 21:55, 19 July 2007 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for your contributions

American football

edit

Thank you for all the linkage changes you've made in USA articles, which while technically correct, serve only to confuse the American reader. The solution would be to add a "pipe," as follows: At the end of American football, add |football]], with no space between football and the pipe, as follows football. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Clariosophic (talkcontribs) 19:21, 13 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

You're doing it again. [[American football|football]] would be the better way to go. DarkAudit (talk) 18:23, 19 August 2008 (UTC)Reply

FA

edit

Hey there, I noticed you'd changed the Football Association to the Football Association in the History of Ipswich Town article. Now I'm not bothered really but in general it's not good practice to just modify pages to correct for redirects. If you had changed something else and decided to tidy up the redirects that would be fine, but there's a quick guide here should you be unsure as to what I'm banging on about. Otherwise, happy editing. The Rambling Man (talk) 15:37, 26 February 2008 (UTC)Reply

FA Cup 3rd/4th place

edit

Hi. Sorry about that. You and your source are quite right about the venue being St Andrew's, I've changed it back. When I did FA Cup 1971-72, The Hawthorns came from Soccerbase and the attendance from Matthews, and I completely failed to notice that Matthews did in fact say the match was at home. Must try harder ;-( cheers, Struway2 (talk) 07:24, 20 June 2008 (UTC)Reply

Fooball

Thank you for fixing the link in Lebanese Army High Center for Military Sport‎, indeed this is the one, I had to search for soccer rather than football. Plus I had to check the article not only its title on Google:P... --Zaher1988 (talk) 08:14, 9 December 2008 (UTC)Reply

Achangeisasgoodasa, we would like you to become a member of the Football Variants Taskforce of WikiProject Football.
 

Hello Achangeisasgoodasa, it is nice to meet you. I came across your page when I went through the list of people who had edited articles in this category about Football variants, and I wondered if you were intrested in joining a new taskforce that covers this category, as we are looking for members. Thank you for your time - DeMoN2009

4 Associations Tournament

edit

Why did you move this article to 4 Associations' Tournament? It is typical to provide a reason for any page move. Anyway, I've not seen any sources that refer to the tournament with an apostrophe, so unless you can provide a couple, I'm tempted to revert the move. – PeeJay 10:15, 26 March 2009 (UTC)Reply

Lovely. Cheers. – PeeJay 10:21, 26 March 2009 (UTC)Reply

William Jones (English footballer born 1876)

edit

You have edited Loughborough Town to become Loughborough F.C. I believe Loughborough Town was a professional football club that existed from 1882 to 1900 see the book "The Luffs" by David Kirkby and is unconnected with Loughborough F.C. which has different roots. If you are certain the two clubs are one and the same - leave the change; if not should it revert to the Town name and await someone opening a page for Loughborough Town one day. I am very new to this wiki inputting so do not know how to end this talk entry. (Moorehulbert (talk) 21:54, 2 July 2012 (UTC))Reply

You are now a Reviewer

edit
 

Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, is currently undergoing a two-month trial scheduled to end 15 August 2010.

Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under pending changes. Pending changes is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial. The list of articles with pending changes awaiting review is located at Special:OldReviewedPages.

When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Wikipedia:Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.

If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Courcelles (talk) 02:21, 18 June 2010 (UTC)Reply
