List of Intercontinental Cup winning managers

Featured list candidates/List of Intercontinental Cup winning managers/archive1

Nominator(s): NapHit (talk) 21:02, 7 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

After some hard work on this list, I now believe it meets the criteria. This will form part of the Lists of UEFA club competition winning managers topic if it passes here and would be a long overdue addition. My current list has four supports, so I'm assuming it's ok to nominate this one now. Thanks in advance for the comments. NapHit (talk) 21:02, 7 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Footnote to explain why there is no winning manager recorded for two of the years should be a footnote, not mixed in with the references. Also don't use "wasn't" in the footnote, write it in full.
Per MOS:BOLD, bold should not be used to highlight something. Use colour + symbol -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 07:43, 8 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the comments, @ChrisTheDude:, I've addressed all the comments. Regarding the bold, I've looked at Bianchi's profile and he's not managed for 10 years. So safe to assume he's no longer active as a manager. NapHit (talk) 20:03, 8 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Support from Gonzo_fan2007 (including source review)

In the 1979 row, the managers should each have their own row so they can be properly sorted when using the table sort function.
- I removed the second manager as it seems he was the assistant to the other one, not co-manager. NapHit (talk) 20:49, 4 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
In the managers with multiple titles table, recommend adding an emdash to the blank cells.
- Done NapHit (talk) 20:49, 4 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
On the last two tables, I don't think you need to duplicate the section title and table title. You can use {{sronly}} to keep the descriptive titles for accessibility without showing them visually.
- I did this and then realised that it leaves the refs hanging above the table, so I've left it for now. NapHit (talk) 20:49, 4 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  - You can put it at the bottom of the table too. Take a look at Green Bay Packers draft picks (1970–present) for an example of this. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 22:53, 4 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I think the abbreviated links in the Nationality and Country columns should use {{Abbrlink}}. Most people don't know country acronyms off the top of their heads.
- I've removed the abbreviations and used the full name. NapHit (talk) 20:49, 4 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Source review: Passed
- In Ref 2, 5 and 6, why abbreviate "Rec. Sport. Soccer Statistics Foundation"?
  - The full name is used not the abbreviation. NapHit (talk) 20:49, 4 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- For Ref 1, I would recommend changing "bibliography" to a sub-heading of the "References" section and then add an additional subheading titled "Citations". An example of this is at Packers sweep.
  - Done NapHit (talk) 20:49, 4 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- All other references appear appropriate for the information being cited. All references are formatted appropriately.
- Spot checks on 10 refs did not bring up any issues.

Please ping me when you have had a chance to respond. Thanks! « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 17:05, 1 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

- - Thanks of the comments @Gonzo fan2007:, I've addressed your comments and responded above to some. NapHit (talk) 20:49, 4 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    - Support. I added one response above but it wouldn't prevent my support, so feel free to take it or leave it. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 22:53, 4 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comments by Alavense

The competition was discontinued in 2004 with the introduction of the FIFA Club World Cup - The FIFA Club World Cup was introduced in 2000, though.
- I've reworded this to reflect this. Let me know if it needs tweaking as I wasn't 100% confident in my change. NapHit (talk) 19:55, 28 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  - Something like that, but maybe following the introduction in 2000 of the FIFA Club World Cup, which features better. Alavense (talk) 05:57, 29 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    - Changed to your suggestion. NapHit (talk) 17:13, 29 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
In the caption, it would be worth stating that the picture dates from the 1970s, if that's the case.
- Is it from 1970, though? According to the description, I guess c. 1970 or something like that would be better. Alavense (talk) 05:57, 29 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  - Added c. 1970 instead. NapHit (talk) 17:13, 29 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
A comma is missing before respectively.
There's a problem with the caption of the grouped images. In mobile view, the order is slightly different, with Sacchi in the middle, so it makes it confusing. Would there be any way of fixing this?
- I think I've resolved this now. Think the issue was that image 1 was last in order. Switched it around and that seems to have resolved it for me when I opened the app. NapHit (talk) 19:55, 28 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  - It's still not working for me. I still see Sacchi in the middle? Maybe someone else knows how to solve this? Alavense (talk) 05:57, 29 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    - I'm not sure how to resolve this for mobile, or if you can. Guess one solution is to trim the images down to two instead of three. NapHit (talk) 17:13, 29 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
      - Hi, PresN. Do you know how we could solve this? Thanks in advance, Alavense (talk) 11:31, 30 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
        Maybe try putting their names in |caption1/2/3, and then in the overall caption you wouldn't have to state e.g. (left). --Pres N 11:47, 30 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
        Ok, I've done that now. Let me know if that's better @Alavense:. NapHit (talk) 17:21, 30 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
In the headers, Ref(s) should be Ref(s). And please use {{abbr}} to state that it stands for "References".
- This hasn't been looked at yet. Alavense (talk) 05:57, 29 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  - I didn't realise you meant to include the full stop as well (I think that's what you're suggesting), so I've made that change and the abbreviation is there too. NapHit (talk) 17:13, 29 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
If "Country" refers to the club, wouldn't the column have to be after that for "Club"?
- I get what you're saying here. This is the common way of referring to the nationality of the club on WP:FOOTY articles, especially as we can't just use the flag per MOS:FLAG. I'm not sure it would be better if the nationality of the club was after the club itself, but that could be just because I'm used to it being this way. NapHit (talk) 19:55, 28 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  - I mean, wouldn't it make more sense to have the columns arranged in this order: Year, Winning manager, Nationality, Club and Country? Maybe I'm wrong, but it seems more logical to me. Alavense (talk) 05:57, 29 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    - I don't know, it's kind of how it's always been done for these WP:FOOTY lists, of which there are multiple ones with the same format that are featured. Of course, WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS doesn't mean I'm right so I'm open to a second opinion on this from the FL directors, @ChrisTheDude: if you have any thoughts on this given your experience with football-related lists, or any other interested editors. NapHit (talk) 17:13, 29 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Link the teams both in a) and b) notes.

That's what I saw. Kind regards, Alavense (talk) 08:15, 27 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the comments @Alavense:, I've addressed them all and left some comments above on specific points. NapHit (talk) 19:55, 28 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I replied to some. Kind regards, Alavense (talk) 05:57, 29 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Replied to some of the points you made above @Alavense:. NapHit (talk) 17:13, 29 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I'm still not sure about the order in which the columns are arranged, but never mind. Support. Alavense (talk) 06:21, 2 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
