Poor article[edit]

Overall this article is very sloppy and poor in structure. Just reading the beginning: "Founded in 1912 Deportivo Cali is the oldest football club of Colombia and was the first Colombian team to be in the Copa Libertadores de América final in 1978 finishing second against Boca Juniors from Argentina. Cali also finished second in 1999 against Palmeiras from Brazil."--Gorra Negra (talk) 05:52, 20 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

External links modified[edit]

Hello fellow Wikipedians,

I have just added archive links to one external link on Deportivo Cali. Please take a moment to review my edit. You may add {{cbignore}} after the link to keep me from modifying it, if I keep adding bad data, but formatting bugs should be reported instead. Alternatively, you can add {{nobots|deny=InternetArchiveBot}} to keep me off the page altogether, but should be used as a last resort. I made the following changes:

Nicknames[edit]

I recently cleaned the nicknames section. There were a few that were not truly common nicknames. Cantera de Oro, Amenaza Verde, Troma Verde. Does anyone have several sources were we can verify that those names have been consistently used? I have not heard those nicknames used consistently. I also heard some such as Rodillo Verde. But the common real ones are the azucareros. Elesquinero (talk) 14:21, 31 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Please see the following links for some examples:
1. El País
2. Gol Caracol/Caracol TV
3. El Tiempo
4. Win Sports
5. Vavel
There are several other sources out there for "Amenaza Verde" at least. The fact that those were nicknames dating back from several years (earned as the team built its reputation as one that played nicely) and have been less used in recent times as the team's performances have become inconsistent does not mean those are not real nicknames nor uncommon ones.

Thank you for those sources. You are correct, "amenaza verde" has been consistently used but over the last several years as the team as lost momentum so has this nickname. still valid non the least. Elesquinero (talk) 01:03, 1 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
