Since the club is now rebranded as Odisha FC officially, the page move mustn't be a problem. Moreover, club has shifted its base from Delhi to Odisha. SaUp2014 (talk) 22:49, 1 September 2019 (UTC)

Post-move

 * This required administrator permission to move. Should not have been closed by non-admin. Coderzombie (talk) 13:09, 9 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Noted. How could I have known? How can I tell in the future which discussions I am not permitted to close? Cwmhiraeth (talk) 13:36, 9 September 2019 (UTC)
 * The page is now moved. It needed an admin, since it was under move protection. There had been some move warring about a month ago. EdJohnston (talk) 14:32, 9 September 2019 (UTC)
 * been closing these for many years with many protected pages included, and whenever I've closed a fully move-protected page, I've listed at WP:RM, where an admin then moves the page within a short period of time. I recently advised Cwmhiraeth to follow that procedure. I've never seen a policy or guideline that tells us this cannot or should not be done. Do you know of one?  P. I. Ellsworth , ed.  put'r there 00:02, 10 September 2019 (UTC)
 * See WP:RMNAC. I agree with User:Paine Ellsworth that if this problem arises in the future, where a move discussion is properly closed by a non-admin but the page is protected, the discussion closer should list the matter at WP:RMTR. It should then be handled by an admin as though it were a technical request. EdJohnston (talk) 15:27, 10 September 2019 (UTC)

Explain your recent edits please. Drat8sub (talk) 09:53, 20 May 2020 (UTC)


 * Ok.

Let me start with the infobox. I would do a comparison, let's decide on this.

Current Manager: Vacant The club was founded on the 16th of July in 2014 as Delhi Dynamos FC and on the 31st of August in 2019, as Odisha FC.

Added this relevant piece of information: The club began completing under the name of Delhi Dynamos FC for the first five seasons, operating from Delhi and playing their home games at Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium. Ahead of the 2019–20 season, the management decided to shift their base from Delhi to Bhubaneswar, Odisha and rebranded themselves as Odisha FC and began to play their home games at the iconic Kalinga Stadium.

Added this to the formation section, again relevant information: On 31 August 2019, Delhi Soccer Private Limited signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the Government of Odisha, to shift the home base from the national capital New Delhi to Bhubaneswar, Odisha and re-branded the franchise as Odisha FC. The new home for the team was decided to be the Kalinga Stadium at Bhubaneswar.

Other edits include the removal of incomplete kit history. Otherwise, everything else remains the same, except the wordings. Also, all the edits which require to be sourced, are sourced, and are from reliable sources. SaUp2014 (talk) 10:21, 20 May 2020 (UTC)


 * Addition of Juggernauts without reliable source.

You have already got the 4th level warning, a further warning will lead you to get blocked. So, stop this and go through wikipedia guidelines and policies. And above that you dared to do edit warring, do you know the result. Just one final warning remaining for you, go through guidelines. Drat8sub (talk) 10:50, 20 May 2020 (UTC)
 * The club started once as simple as that, name changed.
 * position template changed, unexplained
 * (established as Delhi Dynamos FC) removed without explanation, and addition of those thing not required as the previous thing well explained in summarised way in the lead, the other infomration is there in the lead.
 * Rebranding should be in the ownership history, the history section should only focus on clubs playing history.
 * Removed the main article templates without explanation.
 * adding superfiacial inaugural edition for Odisha, there is only one inaugural season for a club
 * Section should be summarised not details of every match, thats why main article teplates are used.
 * Secondly, total violation of WP:MOS.
 * Removal of kit history, without explanation

Nickname and Fan group name
, you recently have added the nickname as Jaggernaut citing Sportskeeda. Please understand Sportskeeda is not reliable source but also not wrong source, for such attribution is needed. If any of reliable news website sources if available for such claim re-add the information. But surely its so bizzare and absurd to see both the club and fan group is named as same. So please be sure what is true name, I'm skeptical of it. I will later on check. Drat8sub (talk) 18:09, 10 June 2020 (UTC)


 * , yes, I have added 'The Juggernauts' as the nick name because they've been mentioned so multiple times, and have added multiple citations for it. There is no problem adding that nick name. What's the problem if both the supporters' group and club are referred through a same name. For example, aren't Mohun Bagan's fans called as 'Mariners', and the club is referred to as the same. So, that's not a problem. I hope you understand. Also, I think that adding Josep Gombau's picture there remarking his Odisha FC's first ever season i.e. with the re-branded name. SaUp2014 (talk) 20:08, 10 June 2020 (UTC)


 * , do you really make your mind that, you will never go through policies/guidelines??? If I am not wrong you had a discussion before also at my talk page where I had reiterated to read the polcies and guidelines. I think you never did, right? Why did you add the materials again, when there is a confusion about the topic and when an editor reverted your edit, you should have opened a discussion thread, instead that I have done. Secondly, when there is a RS problem too, do you think its absolutely fine to do that ? Above that, when I have corrected a MOS related error you've the audacity to remove the table title? You've done enough revert and blatant disruption in the article in past few months. I am asking you again kindly, please go through policies and when there is a confusion on any topic, use talk pages, these are for these purposes only, don't just revert being pointy. There is a limit mate, next time I'll not advice...forgive me already, because you will end up replying at ANI. And, last but not least, yes there is a problem, actually there is fundamental problem, you can't call the club and the fan group with same name, and Mohun Bagan's fan club are not called mariners, rather called mariners' base camp (or mariners' + city name). And hre are these page you must go trhough immediately, WP:FOOTY, WP:RS, WP:MOS, WP:EDITWAR, WP:POINT, WP:DE, WP:COI. These will surely better your editing behaviour.

 * And for coach, we generally keep most successful coach's image, in this case it's Carlos, if in coming season if someone does better it will be added. Here is a request for you, as you are active in this article, try to write some prose for the head coach section and the record section in a very summarised way. It will make the article better. Ping me if you need any help in it. Drat8sub (talk) 01:58, 11 June 2020 (UTC)
 * , when the thread is opened here, why did you add the info again with a link to unrealible sport portal. You think removing talk page warning will help you out in anyway. See this time I'm not giving you any warning, just a final caution, as you have already got a 4th level warning, a final warning will not be a good one for you. So, for the final time I am saying, read guidelines, as the recent edits do not reflect that you have gone th guidelines, most importantly RS, MOS, POINTy and FOOTY. Note, this will be my final words here in effort to make you understand the importance of guidelines/policy. Drat8sub (talk) 04:21, 17 June 2020 (UTC)
