Football kit design

From Template:Football kit/doc:

To create a new pattern template follow the examples below. When you have created a new pattern please add it to the list below. Do not create patterns for minor details on a kit, the template is for showing basic team colours. It is not supposed to be an accurate drawing of the kit.

As for your comment about changing Germany, France, Spain... Spain does not need changing, and I have put a request on Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Football‎ for imrpoved designs for Germany and France as the current templates do not support their current kits, but what is currently in place is too detailed and, to be frank, ugly. Dancarney (talk) 13:29, 23 June 2008 (UTC)

France and Germany kits

I have done those. Reload the page and you will see. – PeeJay 10:42, 24 June 2008 (UTC)

Warning

This looks fishy, to say the least. Consider yourself warned as I'm not gonna tolerate this kind of stuff on my talk page in the future. Now as for your question, (even though normally I won't communicate with trolls and sockpuppets), any major stylistic change, such as the mass removal of prefixes and suffixes from footballers' infoboxes, should first be discussed at WP:FOOTY. Until then it's AC Milan and not Milan. BanRay 19:15, 4 August 2008 (UTC)

Hello

I noticed you have made this edit, which appears to be the addition unsourced pov and was wondering why you did it Fasach Nua (talk) 12:51, 18 August 2008 (UTC)

National flags

I'm updating a lot of players at the moment so their stats are updated for the new season. The flag is part of the fb and fbu template. Look it up. I'm trying to make their pages as accurate and as aesthetically pleasing as possible, so please stop hitting undo for no good reason. Thank you. foxtrot (talk) 11:58, 20 August 2008 (UTC)

Re: ??

I have been w/ wiki for a while, just I only got a account less than 3 months ago, so I know alot about wiki. What did u need? Dcollins52^{Tell me what you think} 16:59, 17 December 2008 (UTC)

Dcollins52^{Tell me what you think} has bought you a pint! Sharing a pint is a great way to bond with other editors after a day of hard work. Spread the WikiLove by buying someone else a pint, whether it be someone with whom you have collaborated or had disagreements. Cheers!

Spread the good cheer and camaraderie by adding {{subst:WikiPint}} to their talk page with a friendly message.

Giuseppe Rossi

Because your edit was contrary to consensus regarding the structure of the lead paragraph in Rossi's article. Thanks. – PeeJay 09:07, 6 April 2009 (UTC)

Giuseppe Rossi, Three Revert Rule

Hi Blocci. Please be aware of the Three Revert Rule - WP:3RR. You have already reverted Giuseppe Rossi 3 times in the past 24 hours. Thanks. --hippo43 (talk) 10:17, 6 April 2009 (UTC)

Suspected sock-puppetry

I have opened a case involving this account at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Blocci. – Toon^(talk) 12:55, 17 April 2009 (UTC)

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 5 days in accordance with Wikipedia's blocking policy for abusing multiple accounts, as confirmed by checkuser evidence at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Blocci. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make constructive contributions. If you believe this block is unjustified, you may contest the block by adding the text {{unblock|Your reason here}} below, but you should read our guide to appealing blocks first. – Toon^(talk) 22:47, 18 April 2009 (UTC)

Giuseppe Rossi

Please seek consensus on the article's talk page before trying to change the previously agreed-upon lede describing his nationality. Edit warring against consensus will lead to you being blocked again, which really isn't what anyone wants. Cheers, – Toon^(talk) 01:23, 19 June 2009 (UTC)

A.C. Milan

There's a couple of issues I'd like to discuss with you about A.C. Milan article.
First of all, I think the name in the infobox should be A.C. Milan. I know that in Italy we call them just Milan (yeah, I'm Italian if you are wondering), but this is the English wiki! So it would be better to use the name which is more common to English-speaking people, rather than the one used only in Italy, don't you think?
Secondly, you should note that Paolo Maldini indeed debuted during the 1984–85 season, but only on the 20th of January. Therefore, in my opinion, it's more correct to list 1985 as the date of his debut.

Let me know what you think. — Luxic (talk) 10:42, 20 October 2009 (UTC)

Quello che dici tu è giusto. Il punto è che, come ho già accennato, nel mondo anglofono (e trovandoci su en.wiki è su quello che dobbiamo basarci) la forma più come e utilizzata è proprio AC Milan, e non Milan che invece suona naturale solo a noi. Puoi verificarlo tu stesso sia su ESPN che sulla BBC (li ho scelti come i due esempi più autorevoli rispettivamente negli USA e nel Regno Unito). Per altro, questo accade per un motivo molto semplice: dire solo Milan può creare confusione con il nome della città, soprattutto a chi magari di calcio ne sa poco.

Inoltre, tu stesso hai fatto notare che nel primo paragrafo viene comunque riportato il fatto che in Italia la forma utilizzata è semplicemente Milan. A tal proposito, anche nell'articolo dei "cugini" la forma scritta nell'infobox è Internazionale per esteso, mentre Inter è citata solo nel primo paragrafo come la forma comune in Italia.

Per quanto riguarda Maldini, infine, è solo questione di preferenze. Per tagliare la testa al toro, stavo pensando che si potrebbe modificare la tabella inserendo le date del debutto e del ritiro per esteso, ed il numero di stagioni effettivo. In questo modo diventerebbe anche più precisa.

Fammi sapere che ne pensi, appena hai tempo. A presto. — Luxic (talk) 17:21, 22 October 2009 (UTC)

Va bene, dai, lasciamo solo Milan. In fondo non ho molta voglia di star qui a discutere ancora per due lettere... XD La tabella non dovrebbe essere un problema, dato che fui io stesso ad aggiungerla. Adesso provo a vedere se riesco a sistemarla. — Luxic (talk) 18:19, 27 October 2009 (UTC)

Italy national football team

Please also update the recent call-up before update the squad. Matthew_hk tc 20:26, 1 June 2010 (UTC)

You missed Cassani. Matthew_hk tc 20:35, 1 June 2010 (UTC)

Maths. lesson 28-23 = 5, you revert on Italy national football team counted for first warning, assume good faith. Matthew_hk tc 20:41, 1 June 2010 (UTC)

You understand you don't have to write me again to say: "You miss Cassani"--Blocci (talk) 20:43, 1 June 2010 (UTC)

second warning for not provide edit summary. Santon was call-up to the match in October, please provide reason why remove him. Matthew_hk tc 20:43, 1 June 2010 (UTC)

Verdi

L'approdo di Verdi in prima squadra non è ancora ufficiale, quindi aspettiamo ad inserirlo. Tra l'altro è un '92, il che significa che probabilmente l'anno prossimo sarà ancora utilizzato prevalentemente dalla primavera. In ogni caso, meglio attendere la pubblicazione della nuova rosa sul sito ufficiale. -- Luxic (talk) 14:05, 12 July 2010 (UTC)

Italy national football team

As the match not yet ended, please do not update the caps please. Matthew_hk tc 20:30, 10 August 2010 (UTC)

Please do not add nonsense to Wikipedia, as you did to the Italy national football team page. Such edits are considered vandalism and quickly undone. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox instead. Thank you. how could you as of 10 August 2010 if the game is not yet ended? I will report to ANI if you revert it Matthew_hk tc 20:36, 10 August 2010 (UTC)

Mario Balotelli

Why did you make the previous change to his appearances and goals for Manchester City?

His appearance and goal against FC Timişoara were both legitimate in a competitive fixture of the Europa League, why did you erase this? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mellerz252 (talk • contribs) 22:27, 7 November 2010 (UTC)

Nomination of Mattia Perin for deletion

Ronaldo

Hello. Before changing the club names in the Ronaldo article again please discuss it on the talk page. Currently we're using the names that are the most common in the English speaking media. If you disagree with this assessment or the reasoning behind it please discuss it on the talk page first. Thanks.Footballgy (talk) 11:31, 2 February 2011 (UTC)

Same with Diego Milito. Footballgy (talk) 23:42, 20 February 2011 (UTC)

Inter

In English media F.C. Internazionale Milano is referred to as "Inter Milan" or just "Inter". Since this is the English language Wikipedia we should stick with the most commonly used English names. The club is rarely ever referred to as "Internazionale" in English. Thanks. SQGibbon (talk) 15:41, 8 May 2011 (UTC)

AC Milan infobox parameter

Hello. I've started a discussion on the talk page for A.C. Milan here concerning which name should be used in the "clubname" parameter. Since we're both on the verge of violating WP:3RR and being blocked for it I suggest we participate in the discussion there and attempt to reach a consensus view. Thanks. SQGibbon (talk) 19:47, 19 September 2011 (UTC)

Giusto perché tu lo sappia...

...non sono stato io a modificare i numeri, ma l'utente dopo di me. Io avevo semplicemente rimesso il link al sito che qualcuno aveva tolto senza motivo. Quindi magari la prossima volta controlla meglio la cronologia prima di diffamare. Luxic (talk) 17:06, 26 July 2012 (UTC)

José Mauri

Ciao, Blocci. Lo spiego più compiutamente qui, dato che gli edit summaries risultano, per forza di cose, troppo concisi. Il consenso tra gli utenti del progetto calcio è di segnalare come nazionalità di un calciatore quella relativa all'ultima squadra nazionale con la quale è effettivamente sceso in campo. Nel caso di Mauri, fa fede l'ultima partita da lui giocata con l'Italia under-17 nel 2012. Qualora in futuro giocasse una partita con una delle selezioni argentine, allora saremo liberi di cambiare la nazionalità. — Luxic (talk) 16:27, 16 October 2015 (UTC)

Your revert at Italy national football team

Hi there. Just a quick reminder, we in fact don't "use official sources on Wikipedia", we use reliable sources, preferably second-party sources. Your intention might have been correct regarding the removal of numbers for the recent call-up since they were not yet assigned but your reasoning was not. In future, please make sure you communicate clearly why you make such edits and remember, we don't need to hear from FIGC about the numbers, it's enough if a reliable source reports them.

Italy national football team recent results

Hi, are you reading my edit notes? Because it's clear to me that by commenting your revert as "restored standard version", you aren't. The closest thing to a "standard version" is a Featured article, the highest quality articles on Wikipedia. There are only three national team articles that are FA: all three don't have the recent results section (a coincidence?) Nehme₁₄₉₉ (talk) 23:10, 27 June 2020 (UTC)

Please do not add or change content, as you did at Matteo Lovato, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Robby.is.on (talk) 23:41, 13 November 2020 (UTC)

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Italy national football team. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. Repeated vandalism may result in the loss of editing privileges. Thank you. Nehme₁₄₉₉ (talk) 15:03, 14 November 2020 (UTC)

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus, rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Points to note:

1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made;
2. Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes and work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. Vaselineeeeeeee^★★★ 16:16, 14 November 2020 (UTC)
