Matt Mills
I've mentioned this on the talk page but thought I'd post it here too, Mills himself confirmed he was born in Leicester, Rothley to be specific, during an interview with BBC Radio Leicesters Ian Stringer as Stringer posted on his twitterhere.Jimmy Skitz's Answer Machine13:48, 8 July 2011 (UTC)

Southampton FC crest update
Hi I noticed the 125th anniversary crest has been replaced by a older version of the current saints crest.

I don't know how to add or edit images, but here's a link from the official site to the current crest.

Hi there, and I considering doing a proper FA-standard article for Le God pretty soon and I was just wondering if you'd like to be involved too? We couldn't help noticing your affection for our Saintly friends... —Cliftonianthe orangey bit 19:52, 26 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Great stuff. You can find the work-in-progress article in my sandbox. I'm still working on the basic outline but I'll let you know when it's ready for your input; all of your sources will be very useful. In the meantime feel free to comment, add or take away. —Cliftonianthe orangey bit 10:09, 27 August 2011 (UTC)

DYK nom for Robert Copland-Crawford
Hi Kangaroo, I have reviewed your nomination at Template:Did you know nominations/Robert Copland-Crawford and have a question regarding an ALT as well as your QPQ review. Please see my comments at the nomination page and reply there. Thanks! Crisco 1492(talk) 09:50, 1 September 2011 (UTC)

Jack Fowler (footballer)
Hi DK, does your Wales book confirm that he was born in Maerdy and that he played for Mardy A.F.C., and that this team was from Maerdy? Thanks. Eldumpo (talk) 16:36, 3 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Thanks for response re what Wales book says. I will have a look at GoS. I suspect the old Mardy team was from Maerdy, Glam not Mardy, Mon but have not seen evidence for this, so don't want to make assumptions. Eldumpo (talk) 17:44, 3 September 2011 (UTC)

1. You are factually incorrect. Please stop adjusting my edits. This player is a CELTIC player, this is where he is registered. The fact he is on loan to Southampton F.C. is secondary. His current club is still 'Celtic'.

2. The correct title of the club is 'Southampton F.C.'. The 'F.C.' stands for 'Football Club'. To leave this out is to conflate the city of Southampton with the Football Club. The player is not on loan to the city; his is on loan to the Football Club.

I will continue to check this player's entry each day to make sure that the above is kept correct. Please understand what you are doing before making any changes. The integrity of an online encyclopedia such as this is only maintained if the editors are certain of their facts. — Preceding unsigned comment added byAlexandriaLibrary(talk • contribs) 02:56, 5 September 2011 (UTC)

I maintain that the player's current club should be the club he is registered to. If you wish, by all means modify the template to have a 'Loan club' category. To indicate on a 'trusted' medium such as this that the player's club of registration is other than it is is misleading. If you look at the Celtic F.C. entry on this encyclopedia you will still see the player as listed as one of theirs, albeit out on loan.

Second, I always delete my 'talk', it is a personal preference and not to be taken as impoliteness. —Preceding unsigned comment added by AlexandriaLibrary (talk • contribs) 03:26, 5 September 2011 (UTC)

Football Players' Template
I would suggest amending the template thus:

Current Club ---> becomes 'Club of Registration'

and insert

Current Playing Club ---> to reflect a loan.

This will keep the database 'safe'. It should be possible to search the database for all registered players of a club, regardless of where they are currently playing. As you would have it, this player would not show up on such a search of 'Celtic F.C.'. By adding a super-category of 'Club of Registration' to the template solves this and keeps us all happy, would you not agree? —Precedingunsigned comment added by AlexandriaLibrary (talk •contribs) 03:41, 5 September 2011 (UTC)
