Redmond etc
Hello. The reason I undid your changes to the Nathan Redmond page and others, is that Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, and it's only supposed to publish information that has already apppeared in reliable published sources like newspapers, books or news websites like bbc.co.uk or skysports.com. When we add info to pages, particularly pages about real people, we must at the same time add a reference (link) to where we got the info from, to stop people adding their own personal opinions or making up malicious rumours. I've had a quick look for sources for who Mr Redmond supports. This article verifies his admiration for Ashley Young and Ian Taylor being a family friend, but it doesn't say Nathan himself is a Villa supporter: quite the opposite, in fact. cheers, Struway2 (talk) 12:14, 4 September 2011 (UTC)

Can I politely request that you stop making inappropriate edits to this page by trying to substitute a perfectly acceptable image in the Info box. The first time you did this you left the page in a mess and the next time you duplicated an image which already exists on the page which was not the right size anyway. Suggest you have a practice on the Wikipedia sandbox WP:Sandbox to hone your skills before you attempt such edits gain and waste other editor's time fixing your errors.

Hello, I'm Struway2. I wanted to let you know that I undid one of your recent contributions to Birmingham City F.C. because it didn't appear constructive. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks! Struway2 (talk) 07:37, 4 September 2012 (UTC)
