Andrew Dallas
Hi, "Free Agent" isn't a team and is never used in an infobox. In the case of Andrew Dallas standard practice is to remove the team and number from the infobox. How the article was when I edited it will suffice until he finds another club. Thanks, Footballgy (talk) 06:11, 10 July 2023 (UTC)


 * That’s strange because I’ve looked at almost every single other player out of contract that my team have been linked to and all say Free agent except this one because you keep changing it? Do you work for Wikipedia? Plus, you can link Free Agent, if you search for it on Wiki there is a section explaining it…same as ‘footballer’?! Farenbear (talk) 10:16, 10 July 2023 (UTC)


 * You can link Free Agent because there is a Wikipedia page on that topic, but then this website isn't just about football, you could link egg, Vauxhall Astra and Winston Churchill as his team and the system would allow it. The term "free agent" is sometimes and often used in the introduction lead and is occasionally linked, I'll usually just leave it after the position is mentioned. Some editors would state "and is without a club", others will state "and is a free agent" but it's not commonly used in the infobox, please see the guidance on Template:Infobox football biography so any article on any player that would include "Free Agent" as the current team in an infobox would normally be removed by an experienced editor as it's not standard practice. Do I work for Wikipedia? Ermmm nope, bit of a bizarre question to have? But as your new here, there are rules and regulations and standard forms of writing and creating articles. Any articles that don't follow those examples get altered to fall in line. So if I don't make the change there are hundreds of others who would. Hope this helps.

 * Gotcha 👍🏻 sounds good to me. It was a genuine question, hope it didn’t come across as anything but. Farenbear (talk) 17:58, 10 July 2023 (UTC)


 * Not a problem, Wikipedia and a lot of people on it can be a bit, what's the best word? "Finicky"? at the best of times, I only edit a few football articles when I am bored, like most people. Thanks for reverting the vandalism on the page, you'll find most people jump the gun on transfers. If you need any help with anything give us a shout.

Simon Farenden moved to draftspace
An article you recently created, Simon Farenden, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of " " before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.
