Scotland player statistics
The first page for each player (with "caps 0" and "goals 0" for all women) is statistics for the men's national team! You need to click on the link for "Women's A squad" (which is the full national team for women) for each player to bring up the relevant statistics. eg Kim Little

PK draws
Where does it say that a "match that went to PK counts as a draw officially"? I can't find any reference to this online. --Oneforfortytwo (talk) 00:26, 7 July 2017 (UTC)
 * See https://twitter.com/ussoccer_wnt/status/798021032791535616 for example. For official statistics purposes, penalty shootouts count as a draw. Mightytotems (talk) 08:06, 7 July 2017 (UTC)

Chicago Red Stars
Hi, may i ask you why did you kept Rosie White and removed Miller and Boyles. According to this all three players were acquired by Red Stars. I am just trying to understand i hope you Forgive me, my English isn't strong, thank you --Mojackjutaily (talk) 22:38, 15 February 2018 (UTC)


 * Of course! Rosie White was a contracted player with Boston Breakers, so if selected she would be immediately added to the roster. Whereas Miller and Boyles are 2018 draft picks who are not signed to a contract yet; Chicago only selected their NWSL rights. If/when they are signed to an NWSL contract by Chicago, then they will be added to the roster. Mightytotems (talk) 08:49, 16 February 2018 (UTC)
 * now i understand, so we have to remove all 2018 draft picks from the teams, thank you.--Mojackjutaily (talk) 12:19, 16 February 2018 (UTC)

Vyan Sampson
Hello! I reverted your edits on the Vyan Sampson as the only source cannot be deemed reliable, as noted here. Do you know of a reliable source elsewhere? I had a quick look and couldn't find anything at all. R96Skinner (talk) 13:44, 14 January 2019 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the catch! Took some digging but I finally found an official source so added it just now. Mightytotems (talk) 12:58, 18 January 2019 (UTC)

File:Reign FC crest (2019).jpg
Hi, I'm RonBot, a script that checks new non-free file uploads. I have found that the subject image that you recently uploaded was more than 5% in excess of the Non-free content guideline size of 100,000 pixels. I have tagged the image for a standard reduction, which (for jpg/gif/png/svg files) normally happens within a day. Please check the reduced image, and make sure that the image is not excessively corrupted. Other files will be added to Category:Wikipedia non-free file size reduction requests for manual processing. There is a full seven-day period before the original oversized image will be hidden; during that time you might want to consider editing the original image yourself (perhaps an initial crop to allow a smaller reduction or none at all). A formula for the calculation of the desired size can be found at WP:Image resolution, along with instructions on how to tag the image in the rare cases that it requires an oversized image (typically about 0.2% of non-free uploads are tagged as necessarily oversized). Please contact the bot owner if you have any questions, or you can ask them at Wikipedia talk:Non-free content. See User:RonBot for info on how to not get these messages.

Orphaned non-free image File:Reign FC crest (2019).jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Reign FC crest (2019).jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.  Sounder Bruce  01:49, 1 February 2019 (UTC)

It's not about sources
If you'd like to discuss your feeling that the captains need to be decorated, feel free to find an appropriate place to do so. My talk page is not the right place. Most teams, including European teams, do not decorate the captains. The few cases where it happens, they use a reference directly from the club. Not a tweet or other social media content. Walter Görlitz (talk) 18:08, 1 March 2019 (UTC)
 * Your assertion that "Most teams, including European teams, do not decorate captains" is not reflected by existing convention on Wikipedia; even if it were true, you alone do not get to unilaterally decide notability criteria in this case while denigrating other's dissenting opinion as "feeling". For example, of the 18 still-existing football club articles rated at featured article status (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:FA-Class_football_articles), 13 include captaincy information in first-team squad section (and it would've been 14 if you hadn't revert my sourced edits again on Seattle Sounders FC). So it seems that you are the one who has strong feelings in this case. I can improve the verifiability of sources, but please do not unilaterally revert already-sourced edits again. If you want to build a consensus on this subject and incorporate it into the football club page template in the future, I suggest that you take your own advice and find another appropriate place to do so. Mightytotems (talk) 18:53, 1 March 2019 (UTC)
 * Also, here https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Seattle_Sounders_FC&oldid=885676842 you wrote "Not at that source." Then upon further edits, you turned around and say "It's not about sources". Your attitude and changing messages do not suggest good faith when I approached you initially politely with constructive suggestions and discussions. Mightytotems (talk) 19:15, 1 March 2019 (UTC)
