Question to you Foxhill
editHi. I want to create a final for a soccer tournament. How do you guys do those little pitch graphics with the name and numbers between the list of 11 on the field? You know? weka (talk) 22:29, 3 October 2013 (UTC)

Did you know nomination for History of Swindon
editHowdy! Whilst browsing through Special:Newpages for potential articles to feature as part of the Did you know? section of the Main Page, I ran across the article History of Swindon, which you created. You can see the proposed blurb at Template talk:Did you know under the date heading corresponding to the creation of the article. I'm adding this notice here for two reasons: Firstly, if you feel the blurb I wrote is inaccurate or misrepresents the subject, feel free to propose a correction below it, or add a note to my talk page. Secondly, barring a large backlog or a significant problem cropping up with regards to the article, you should expect to see it on the Main Page within a week, so if you wish to add some polish to it before getting a sizable influx of eyeballs looking it over, you'll need to do so fairly soon. Regards and good luck, GeeJo (t)⁄(c) • 19:52, 6 December 2006 (UTC)
Hello Foxhill, and thanks for this very comprehensive article. It was very interesting.....You've made a great start here - Happy editing, Blnguyen (bananabucket) 23:56, 8 December 2006 (UTC)

AfD Nomination: Swindon Town F.C. seasons
editAn editor has nominated the article Swindon Town F.C. seasons for deletion, under the Articles for deletion process. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and has explained why in the nomination (also see What Wikipedia is not and Deletion policy). Your opinions on why the topic of the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome: participate in the discussion by editing Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Swindon Town F.C. seasons. Add four tildes like this ˜˜˜˜ to sign your comments. You can also edit the article Swindon Town F.C. seasons during the discussion, but do not remove the "Articles for Deletion" template (the box at the top of the article), this will not end the deletion debate.

- I became of this article by stumbling accross its AfD pages, but, as Victor Kiam so nearly said, I liked it so much I copied it all to build Gillingham F.C. seasons May many more clubs build such a useful database: thanks for the framework. However: do not think that my gratitude extends to forgiving you or your team for the events of 1979 or 1987 :@) Kevin McE 19:22, 17 April 2007 (UTC)

editI looked at your two league pages and they looked accurate and I will try and help keep them up to dat throughout the year.
As far as the template thing I 'made' I don't have the first clue as to how to do it properly so please feel free to hack it to bits and make it look good !!
I am not sure if I have replied in the right place and I apologise if I have got it wrong !!

I have made a page called Lakeside Hammers as the Srena Essex Hammers have changed their name. Please could you make the Arena Essex page point to the Lakeside one.

George Hunt
editHey there - as WP's resident Swindon Town fan I have a question which you might be best positioned to answer. I was about to create an article on the Arsenal footballer George Hunt, who played between 1937 and 1939 for Arsenal and was also a Spurs player. However I've found out there was also another separate George Hunt who played over 300 times for Swindon Town between 1948 and 1958 and I'm thinking of how to name the articles as a result. Arsenal's George Hunt played as an inside forward and Swindon's as a right-back (according to my PFA Player Records book) so I was thinking of naming the articles George Hunt (forward) and George Hunt (defender) respectively. I was wondering what your opinion would be on this? It'd be much appreciated Cheers. Qwghlm 15:25, 5 February 2007 (UTC)
- I would be OK with that. I notice the same type of article title has been used to disambig amongst others Ian Wright.
- Swindon's George Hunt was born in 1922, I mention this as I've seen some disambig pages listing by, for example, George Hunt (footballer born 1922), George Hunt (footballer born 19xx) such as Andy Gray and James Walker. This can be a bit unwieldy but is a second option if the original doesn't work out.
- Of course this means I'll have to shift my arse and write the Hunt article now.. - Foxhill 15:55, 5 February 2007 (UTC)
- Cheers. I hate disambiguating on birth date - people are more likely to remember a player for where he played and who he played for, not his year of birth. I've done the necessary moves and disambigs on the main George Hunt page and will get cracking on the Arsenal player's article in due course. Qwghlm 16:52, 5 February 2007 (UTC)

editRecent changes to Swindon Town F.C.
editHi Foxhill, I was wondering if you could have a look at the recent changes to Swindon Town F.C. made by 156.56.171.43 listed as grammatical corrections. I am of the opinion that the changes do not improve the article and in some cases are detrimental, but I can't really simply undo them. I thought that you, as a major contributor to the page, would be a suitable person to ask for advice on whether to revert some or all of the edit in question. Cheers. I-hunter 18:56, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

Re: New ad - filename collision
editI just created an ad for WP:FOOTBALL and uploaded it as commons:Image:Qxz-ad63.gif however there seems to be an unused ad in wikispace at Image:Qxz-ad63.gif already. Should I rename and re-upload? Foxhill 14:45, 29 June 2007 (UTC)
- Tag the version you uploaded for deletion,
and re-upload it as Image:Qxz-ad64.gif. Number 63 isn't in use because there's a sourcing issue that hasn't been settled yet and it may have to be deleted, but if it is, we can just fill the gap in later; the order of numbering doesn't matter – Gurch 17:04, 29 June 2007 (UTC)
- I've re-uploaded it under the new name, you just need to tag the other one for deletion. Thanks – Gurch 17:09, 29 June 2007 (UTC)
- Done, thanks for your help! Foxhill 17:16, 29 June 2007 (UTC)
Help needed re: Club template
editHi, I noticed that you created the Swindon Town F.C. club template, Template:Swindon Town F.C.. I've created a similar one for West Bromwich Albion F.C. but I can't get the templates (WBA, League founder members and Championship clubs) to join up neatly at the foot of the main article like the Swindon one does. If I put them all within the fb start / fb end tags, one box seems to go inside another rather than one on top of the other.
I've tried tweaking 'my' templates to match the Swindon and League One templates, but it was more a case of copying by example rather than actually knowing what I'm doing, and it doesn't seem to have made any difference anyway. If you have any time free, I'd be really grateful if you could have a quick look at the templates to see what I'm doing wrong. It's not a biggie in the grand scheme of things, it is a bit annoying though! Cheers. --Jameboy 11:42, 1 July 2007 (UTC)
- There was a problem with {{Original Football League clubs}} which was causing it to not nest properly, I've hopefully fixed this and things should look ok now. Have a looksee Foxhill 12:31, 1 July 2007 (UTC)

Speedway Template
editHello mate. Long time no speak. Another editor has adapted a football squad template for use on speedway articles. I know you are good at this kind of thing. Would you be able to make a basic one dedicated to speedway that I could adapt for each team. The one I have in mind is in use at Ben Wilson (speedway rider). Thanks Hammer1980 22:14, 24 July 2007 (UTC)
You are a star.. That is spot on. One thing I just thought of. Instead of 'Current Squad' can it ba changed so we can insert a year ie 2007 / 2006 /2005 ? Hammer1980 09:16, 25 July 2007 (UTC)
Mate that's perfect. Thanks. I owe you one! Hammer1980 13:00, 25 July 2007 (UTC)

Replaceable fair use Image:Wiltshire_Fire_Service_HQ.jpg
editThanks for uploading Image:Wiltshire_Fire_Service_HQ.jpg. I noticed the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:
- Go to the image description page and edit it to add
{{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}
, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template. - On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.
Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, fair use images which could be replaced by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if not used in an article), per our Fair Use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Rettetast 19:14, 21 September 2007 (UTC)
Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Logo llangefni.jpg
editThanks for uploading Image:Logo llangefni.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 05:40, 7 November 2007 (UTC)

Oxford Wikimania 2010 and Wikimedia UK v2.0 Notice
editHi,
As a regularly contributing UK Wikipedian, we were wondering if you wanted to contribute to the Oxford bid to host the 2010 Wikimania conference. Please see here for details of how to get involved, we need all the help we can get if we are to put in a compelling bid.
We are also in the process of forming a new UK Wikimedia chapter to replace the soon to be folded old one. If you are interested in helping shape our plans, showing your support or becoming a future member or board member, please head over to the Wikimedia UK v2.0 page and let us know. We plan on holding an election in the next month to find the initial board, who will oversee the process of founding the company and accepting membership applications. They will then call an AGM to formally elect a new board who after obtaining charitable status will start the fund raising, promotion and active support for the UK Wikimedian community for which the chapter is being founded.
You may also wish to attend the next London meet-up at which both of these issues will be discussed. If you can't attend this meetup, you may want to watch Wikipedia:Meetup, for updates on future meets.
We look forward to hearing from you soon, and we send our apologies for this automated intrusion onto your talk page!

You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not.

Non-free rationale for File:WDPcover.jpg
editThanks for uploading or contributing to File:WDPcover.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under non-free content criteria, but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable. Please go to the file description page, and edit it to include a non-free rationale.
If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified the non-free rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 11:02, 26 August 2012 (UTC)
The article Candle in the Eyes has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- No references since 2009, has no additional information which can be merged to parent article. Individual albums/singles (here DVD), as per WP:BAND, do not need separate articles when the only notability is inherited.
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}}
notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}}
will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Ugog Nizdast (talk) 19:16, 27 September 2013 (UTC)

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Invite to the African Destubathon
editHi. You may be interested in participating in the African Destubathon which starts on October 15. Africa currently has over 37,000 stubs and badly needs a quality improvement editathon/contest to flesh out basic stubs. There are proposed substantial prizes to give to editors who do the most articles, and planned smaller prizes for doing to most destubs for each of the 53 African countries, so should be enjoyable! So it would be a good chance to win something for improving stubs on African sportspeople, including footballers, athletes, Olympians and Paralympians etc, particularly female ones, but also male. Even if contests aren't your thing we would be grateful if you could consider destubbing a few African articles during the drive to help the cause and help reduce the massive 37,000 + stub count, of which many are rated high importance (think Regions of countries etc). If you're interested in competing or just loosely contributing a few expanded articles on African Paralympians, Olympians and committees etc, please add your name to the Contestants/participants section. Diversity of work from a lot of people will make this that bit more special. Thanks. --MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 21:14, 6 October 2016 (UTC)
