Copa del Rey
"Copa Del rey final between AC Milan and Deportivo in 2001." Copa del Rey? that's only for spanish soccer teams, isn't it a mistake?--85.48.41.71 (talk) 22:04, 29 May 2010 (UTC)

Question: I'm sorry, what exactly do you want done? {&#123; Sonia &#124;talk&#124;simple}&#125; 08:54, 30 May 2010 (UTC)

I ask remove this article, is not relevant at all —Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.120.72.206 (talk) 12:13, 30 May 2010 (UTC)


 * Is relevant, since a guy is used to jump in places which he shouldn't and i have the right to know when, why and who did it.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.228.227.133 (talk) 21:44, 30 May 2010 (UTC)

I second that. Why is this person notable? Why are we giving this attention freak (and while that may be my personal opinion it is pretty obvious that he is) the attention he wants and does not deserve? Please remove this from the serious site Wikipedia is, nobody is going to look him up. --86.83.195.175 (talk) 17:43, 30 May 2010 (UTC)


 * I did. Mads Højer (talk) 18:59, 30 May 2010 (UTC)

I didn't know Wikipedia was a space for the freaks. I ask to remove this article, as this person not only is not relevan but it's just a freak and it's in a poor taste to use wikipedia to publicy this people who should be in jail, not here. --Rakkachan (talk) 19:41, 30 May 2010 (UTC)

Why does this article exist? Seems a waste of resources, nothing notable at all- VOTE REMOVE!! (",) 86.63.26.124 (talk) 20:19, 30 May 2010 (UTC)

Maybe he is an attention freak but Wikipedia is about everything, and he has done things in many relevant events. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 109.152.194.159 (talk) 21:12, 30 May 2010 (UTC)

I vote to not removing this article, he's very known person, at least in Spain (sorry but my english is so poor...) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Kncer (talk • contribs) 21:22, 30 May 2010 (UTC)

The article is well written, well sourced and the person involved as gained noteriety and had real effects on events of great importance. Whatever people personally feel about pitch invasion, deleting articles on wikipedia as a means of stopping it seems absurd. The position of wikipedia must be one of neautrality, to remove this article because the person involved "belongs in jail" is completely unacceptable. I can see little argument to suggest this person is not notable, the string of references from different sources attest to that. I think the deletion notice should be removed because it is completely unwarranted and the reasoning behind the deletion is contrary to the values of wikipedia. Olyus (talk) 21:18, 30 May 2010 (UTC)

I don't see what's wrong with the article. It's a bout a real person who is of a certain fame. Maybe that's for the wrong reason but Ted Bundy is on here, as is The Yorkshire Ripper. (85.210.108.110 (talk) 21:34, 30 May 2010 (UTC))

As others have noted, murderers and terrorists have articles too, does that mean Wikipedia encourages murder or terrorism? Hardly. I am not saying he should have an article, I am saying that the reason for him not having one should not be related to encouraging something or not encouraging something.

Sounds like he's at least notorious, and therefore probably notable. Articles certainly shouldn't be deleted because the subject doesn't "deserve" his fame (by whose standards?); by that principle I'd delete every Big Brother winner :) Chris Smowton (talk) 21:42, 30 May 2010 (UTC)

It is up to the courts to punish this guy or anyone else for any offenses that they have made. If you see he was put in prison for any of them then it is not really advocating copying their stupidity. Deleting this article would be just mindless censorship (maybe why the link to his website doesnt work and all of his youtube vidoes dont work either)! Do we allow big brother to wipe out the fact this guy exists and remove our freedome of open knowledge? I want to know more about this guy but cant find out which is the reason that everyone uses wikipedia! A source of knowledge or just what 'they' want you to know? You dont have the right to tell other people what they should have the right to know! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Daviddickson1 (talk • contribs) 22:19, 30 May 2010 (UTC)

Let's delete this guy while we're at it. How dare Wikipedia give safe haven to criminals! 81.153.175.103 (talk) 22:42, 30 May 2010 (UTC)

De-prod
Any of the four registered editors objecting to deletion should feel free to de-prod whenever he/she has a moment, as would I were the article not semi'd; it seems clear that an AfD (from which deletion may result, but surely not for the reasons set forth in the prod, which have little basis in policy or practice) is warranted. 68.248.238.142 (talk) 22:21, 30 May 2010 (UTC) I join to people who ask to remove this article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.32.36.224 (talk) 13:02, 15 February 2011 (UTC)

Is Wikipedia a way to promote the business of a ridiculous provoker?
This man only want to get money with his appearance in international TV shows and sports events. As you can see, he is asking for money to his fans in his Facebook webpage. He is making money and Wikipedia is supporting him with this article. Is Wikipedia made for that?

I thought that Wikipedia was made for knowledge, not for publicity and personal financial enrichment. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.121.140.100 (talk) 12:57, 31 May 2010 (UTC)


 * I agree. This article is pure self-promotion and exactly what this foolish individual wants.  We might as well start an article over a dumb teenager sailing across the world pulling down girls' panties.  Whoever is willing to propose the deletion and removal of this article has my support. T.W. (talk) 01:57, 11 June 2011 (UTC)
 * It's not self-promotion because, as far as I know, Jimmy Jump isn't editing this article himself. He's notable because he's one of the most recognizable and well-known pitch invaders. A dumb teenager sailing across the world pulling down underwear isn't particularly relevant; this guy has "jumped" in quite a few high profile sporting events. So what if he's asking money on his facebook page--how is Wikipedia supporting that? There's no link to his facebook page in this article, just a link to his website. Morhange (talk) 04:23, 11 June 2011 (UTC)

This is a joke
Wikipedia is a joke. How can you have an entry on this loser? You are a joke, never ever will give a penny to fund this joke site. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.204.248.83 (talk) 00:50, 31 May 2010 (UTC)

World Cup Semi Pitch Invader was not Jimmy Jump
As shown here. --Half Price (talk) 09:50, 8 July 2010 (UTC)

Hatred
The page should not be deleted but there should be a section dedicated to the utter hatred thousands of people around the world feel towards this cretin. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 195.97.248.165 (talk) 12:36, 8 July 2010 (UTC)
 * I'll have a look for some sources for this, because you are right. --Half Price (talk) 14:46, 8 July 2010 (UTC)

There's a Facebook group here: http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=133238023376279&v=info&ref=ts - Hardly anyone involved but it's a start! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 195.97.248.165 (talk) 13:50, 9 July 2010 (UTC)
 * I suspect that there are quite a lot of people who find him somewhat amusing. Without actually voicing any support of his capers, I freely admit that I'm amused by the drama he causes. It all probably depends on how much of a sports fan you are.
 * We should maybe keep in min that he's pretty good at throwing doubts about the level of security at huge events like the World Cup Final. And that's exactly what I heard the TV commentators at SVT point out when I watched the game tonight.
 * Peter Isotalo 21:50, 11 July 2010 (UTC)

Personally it makes me feel sick that this man's "fans" give him money to go around the world acting like a tit, ruining sporting events. And these people are also the one technically paying for the pathetic fines the courts hand out. As a massive sports fan I don't see why he thinks he has the right to invade the field of play. Sure there must be more like me! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 195.97.248.165 (talk) 15:24, 14 July 2010 (UTC)

Does he have a message?
I noticed that when he invaded the world cup 2010 final, he had a shirt that said "against racism". Does he usually have a message, a meaning, with what he does? Maybe the article should mention that slightly. Snookerman (talk) 12:15, 15 July 2010 (UTC)

He pretends to have a message as an excuse to act like an utter berk. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.149.124.51 (talk) 12:39, 22 July 2010 (UTC)


 * He just wants attention, and the existence of this article is giving it to him. T.W. (talk) 01:57, 11 June 2011 (UTC)
 * I doubt anybody reading this article is giving him any more attention than he normally has. One more person knows about him, big deal? I'd prefer not to give attention to people like the WBC, yet we have a long and extensive article about the church and several members. Morhange (talk) 23:47, 27 September 2011 (UTC)

Something better than "pitch invader"?
Apparently, he has also invaded a tennis court, a F1 race track and a music stage, so the notion of "pitch invader" doesn't really fit. Why not just an "invader". The term "streaker" works for any place or event, is there no name for "clothed streakers"? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Snookerman (talk • contribs) 13:59, 18 July 2010 (UTC)
