Talk:Kingsley Coman

Transfer
Until Kingley Coman is not officially announced on the Bayern Munich website he is player of Juventus. Cruks (talk) 20:29, 29 August 2015 (UTC)


 * I thought that Gazzetta dello Sport was a source reliable enough, but you're right: it's better to wait for the official announcement in the Bayern website Omar Gatti
 * Italian newspapers, a reliable source? Cruks (talk) 07:24, 30 August 2015 (UTC)

Descent
The prose calls him of Guinean descent (with no source), the category has him as Guadeloupean. Until there is a source, this is against BLP, and shouldn't be mentioned. I know that it is more likely that his English-origin name is from a Caribbean culture rather than Africa, this isn't a certainty, for Kurt Zouma is of African heritage and has an ENglish-origin name. &#39;&#39;&#39;tAD&#39;&#39;&#39; (talk) 17:45, 30 August 2015 (UTC)
 * I will do that. Cruks (talk) 19:33, 30 August 2015 (UTC)

Hello English Wikipedia! Coman's mother is not from Guinea, but from neighbouring Guinea-Bissau. This information is posted in the current number of "Bayern-Magazin", FC Bayern's official club magazine. I think an official club magazine is a more reliable source than just some website stating she was from Guinea. Unfortunately, I'm not used to the English customs of quoting a printed source. Would be nice if one of you would do this! The quotation is "Bayern-Magazin. Offizielles Klubmagazin des FC Bayern München", volume 65 (2015/16), issue 3, page 17. Language of the source, of course, is German. --Kuemmjen (talk) 11:32, 12 September 2015 (UTC)
 * What is the title of the article? I've inserted "Kingsley Coman" for now. --Jaellee (talk) 20:30, 12 September 2015 (UTC)
 * The article's title is ″Ein Traum ist in Erfüllung gegangen″, including the quotation marks, because it's a quotation of Coman. It means ″A dream has come true". --Kuemmjen (talk) 17:59, 13 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Okay, I've used the cite journal template and hope that this is correct. --Jaellee (talk) 21:24, 13 September 2015 (UTC)


 * There are different informations about the descent of Kingsley Coman. That is why the informations and references have changed some times. I am behind it to find it out finally. Bayern Munich press office says both parents are from Guadeloupe. But why are there in the french newspapers and international football transfer webpages infos that he is from Guinean descent? Cruks (talk) 19:41, 14 September 2015 (UTC)
 * The question is now which source is more reliable. This is something I cannot really decide. --Jaellee (talk) 21:59, 14 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Bayern Munich press office says again, Kingley's mother from Guadeloupe. Cruks (talk) 12:33, 18 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Where? Do you perhaps have an URL? --Jaellee (talk) 14:59, 18 September 2015 (UTC)
 * I make one for you. Cruks (talk) 18:49, 18 September 2015 (UTC)
 * After 10 days there is still no URL. So as far as I'm concerned, the claim that Bayern Munich's press office said that Kingsley's mother was from Guadeloupe is pure fabrication and there is no prove. --Jaellee (talk) 18:34, 28 September 2015 (UTC)

2015-16 Serie A title?
Just because Coman played one game in Serie A before his move to Bayern Munich, does it mean he is included as part of Juventus' league title that 2015-16 season? The German and Italian Wikipedias seem to think so. Vaselineeeeeeee★★★ 14:49, 10 April 2018 (UTC)
 * What reliable sources say he won the honour? GiantSnowman 15:11, 10 April 2018 (UTC)
 * https://int.soccerway.com/players/kingsley-coman/265385/ on his page already says just one. The Italian and German wiki was tampered with by the same IP, and has since been reverted. Vaselineeeeeeee★★★ 17:14, 10 April 2018 (UTC)
 * This piece on Italian goal.com, specifically about Coman's trophy count, says Per le regole della Lega Serie A, sei Campione d'Italia con un'apparizione anche solo in panchina nell'arco della stagione, which means accordng to Serie A regulations, one appearance is enough. cheers, Struway2 (talk) 17:32, 10 April 2018 (UTC)
 * Whenever there's a reference to a goal.com website, it always directs me to main page ...maybe because they don't allow you to see it in Canada, but I don't know why?...so I can't see the source. So if what that source says is true, then you're saying he should have two titles? But did he get a medal? And does your source cite the "Serie A rules" that say one appearance is enough? Vaselineeeeeeee★★★ 17:54, 10 April 2018 (UTC)
 * Try this tweet from the director of GoalItalia. The goal.com piece goes on to say that even a seat on the bench is enough: Per le regole della Lega di Serie A, infatti, basta un'unica presenza anche solo in panchina per ricevere ufficialmente una fetta di merito in caso di scudetto a fine stagione. Nello scorso campionato, ad esempio, Evra e Hernanes sono stati considerati campioni d'Italia nonostante l'addio alla Juventus nel gennaio del 2017. But no, they don't cite the actual regulation. And without seeing it, we don't know if goal.com is right or not. But if the rules do say that one appearance is enough for a player to be a title-winner, then I don't see how Wikipedia editors can decide otherwise. cheers, Struway2 (talk) 18:14, 10 April 2018 (UTC)
 * I attempted to ask at the Italian wiki project page, you seem to be able to understand some Italian as well: take a look at it:Discussioni progetto:Sport/Calcio. They all say unless they are wearing the jersey at the end of the season, the title shouldn't count also for Patrice Evra, Hernanes, Federico Mattiello: Fin qui Wikipedia si è sempre attenuta alla prassi di chi si fa carico delle statistiche della Lega, cioè la Panini, le cui indicazioni sono sempre state quelle di considerare scudettati unicamente i calciatori presenti in rosa al momento della vittoria. Vaselineeeeeeee★★★ 11:38, 11 April 2018 (UTC)
 * Their opinions may well be right, even though on en.wiki, you'll be lucky to get a Panini sticker treated as RS even if Panini are a statistical partner of the Italian league. Does seem odd though: imagine a scenario where, by the end of January, a player plays 20 x 90 minutes, scores 35 goals and helps put his team so far clear that they're unlikely to be caught. The club then receives an offer they can't refuse and sell him. That player wouldn't be scudettato, despite their huge contribution, but youngsters given minutes in the last few matches of the season and maybe released at the end of it would? That makes even less sense than a seat on the bench being enough.
 * Someone in that discussion wrote they'd like to see the goal.com idea in black and white in a circular from the Lega. I'd like to see something official in black and white. The Premier League rule C13 says (the rule is on about page 110 of their large PDF handbook, link here)
 * "The League Champions shall further receive 40 commemorative medals to be presented by the Club to its Manager and to such of its Players and Officials as it thinks fit provided that any Player who has entered the field of play in a minimum of five of its League Matches that Season shall receive from the Club a commemorative medal. Additional medals may only be presented with the consent of the Board which shall only be given if the total number of Players who have entered the field of play that Season in a minimum of five of the Club's League Matches exceeds 39."
 * i.e. 5 PL appearances gets a medal, whether the player concerned is still at the club or not, but we'd need explicit sources for any extras. Do the Serie A rules not include anything comparable? cheers, Struway2 (talk) 12:47, 11 April 2018 (UTC)


 * Here is the Italian regulation http://www.figc.it/it/93/3817/Norme.shtml The Serie A regulation should locate somewhere in http://www.legaseriea.it/it/sala-stampa/documentazione, however, reading original text and make interpretation, it seem toward WP:OR. Using primary source for direct quote (or any of those c&p) is allowed, but seem not beyond that. Matthew_hk   t  c  12:51, 11 April 2018 (UTC)

Semi-protected edit request on 29 June 2021
"In June 2021, he had his first child with his girlfriend Sabrajna." Should be changed to: "In June 2021 he and his girlfriend Sabrina welcomed their first child together"

His girlfriend "insta name" is Sabrajna but her real name is Sabrina 88.159.215.160 (talk) 21:05, 29 June 2021 (UTC)
