Villa update

Hey there, an update on the Villa. Aston Villa F.C. statistics and records is up for PR, I think I have covered all of them. History of Aston Villa F.C. (1961–present) is a GA, so add that to your list. Hope all is good. Woody (talk) 16:22, 19 January 2008 (UTC)

No, I have been watching. I had to do a bunch fix and I have shrunk them but I think they look good now. I also had to revert the Olof Mellberg image as it was a plain copyvio uploaded over an older image. The new version said it was from the North Stand where I can see it is from the Doug Ellis and from a pro camera. Anyway, the page looks balanced now, well done. I don't think there is anything else, no. Just wait for anymore PR comments, then think about FL. Hope the noro virus disappears soon. Woody (talk) 00:40, 20 January 2008 (UTC)

I would argue against their inclusion to be honest. The ones we have already done are the key, core articles that help to build up the topic. The other ones are auxiliary articles, especially Bodymoor Heath and the Reserves. The topic is Aston Villa F.C. first team, and as such we have that covered. Woody (talk) 00:47, 20 January 2008 (UTC)

We could just remove them, though not the derby one, we can explain away that one. They are covered by the Category anyway. I will ask around. Take a look at Wikipedia:Featured topic candidates/Gillingham F.C. Woody (talk) 00:55, 20 January 2008 (UTC)

Lol ;) The (ha) was in reference to calling Villa a big club in the same league as Liverpool, Man U. Then again, you could put the case forward that we were/are a big club, key to the history of the Football League. Either way, I think the set of articles that we have built up are a complete and whole topic. Woody (talk) 01:09, 20 January 2008 (UTC)

Image source problem with Image:Villapark.jpg

Image Copyright problem

Thanks for uploading Image:Villapark.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 10:34, 29 April 2008 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Woody (talk) 10:34, 29 April 2008 (UTC)

1895 FA Cup Final

Can you clear up a query I have with regard to the goalscorer in the 1895 FA Cup Final? The article credits the goal to Bob Chatt, as does the linked page at www.sportingchronicle.com. The match report in the other linked page says that the ball "was diverted by goalkeeper Reader or by a defender on the line, to Devey who scored. Most people in the ground had been prepared to credit Chatt with the goal, but Devey is now thought to have got the final, perhaps involuntary touch".

This is supported by Gibbons in his History of Victorian Football . He says "Bob Chatt shot towards the West Bromwich goal. Joe Reader managed to half-save the goal attempt, but John Devey scrambled the loose ball over the goal line to secure a one-goal lead for Villa".

Are you able to clarify this from any of your own sources? Cheers. Daemonic Kangaroo (talk) 05:18, 17 May 2008 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of Image:Garrybarry6.jpg

A tag has been placed on Image:Garrybarry6.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section I9 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image appears to be a blatant copyright infringement.

Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Welcome Back

Welcome back to the madhouse. Yes, Villa is now a featured topic, but we need to get them all featured, that is the next step. I am glad things have calmed down for you, there are a lot of Villa season articles that need cleaning up (hint, hint)! Regards. Woody (talk) 16:36, 14 October 2008 (UTC)
