User talk:O for Awesome

Hello,

This is my user talk page (O for Awesome). Feel free to post anything here that you would like to discuss. ie. My edits, your edits, other people's edits, formats, opinions etc etc.

2011-12 A-League matchboxes
Hi! The main reason was that your edits did violate most of the style guidelines for the matchbox templates. To name just a few: ...and so on.
 * The use of team colors and/or flags is strongly discouraged, seeWT:FOOTY#Team flags?
 * The flags next to the referees are unnecessary for the very same reason
 * The scores must be separated by the en dash w/out spaces, not a colon (see TT:Football box:ENDASH)
 * No starting XIs are necessary

Your edit did contain some improvements, but it was so overwhelmed by the style violations, I decided to simply revert it. It has to be done with the previous season articles too, but unfortunately there are too many edits after your formatting that prevent me from simple rv; it has to be done manually and will take helluva lot of time. —WiJG? 07:28, 8 November 2012 (UTC)

welcome back!
hi,

good to see you back editing wiki. I saw your edits on Wellington Phoenix's current season, and I have two points for consideration:


 * 1) In the Appearances section, the players are ordered right now by number of appearances (without difference between starting, sub on and sub off). would it not be better to sort by total number of minutes? in the current situation, a player who played 3 full games will be under a player who came on for the last 5 minutes of 4 games.
 * 2) In this edit you changed the team names in the tooltip to shortened versions, but as it is a tooltip, I think it would be better to keep the full names, no?

cheers! --SuperJew (talk) 21:42, 5 November 2013 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for February 7
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Wellington Phoenix FC results by opposition, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page John Hutchinson (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited 2014–15 ASB Premiership, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Sandringham and Tim Payne.

Southern United FC
Hey I made some edits to your recent update. I have no real problem with what you said except I think that sort of thing needs citations, otherwise it get's a bit into the realm of personal opinion and subjectivity. So I included two links to articles in the ODT.


 * It's great that you were able to add some sources, but I only changed the kit colours in my two edits for this page. Nice to see someone else is helping to keep these pages up to scratch though! O for Awesome (talk) 02:34, 13 November 2014 (UTC)

Transfermarkt
Since most of its content is user-generated, transfermarkt is not a reliable source. Please do not cite it in articles, as you did with Waitakere United, among others. Thank you. Sir Sputnik (talk) 20:24, 18 November 2014 (UTC)


 * Hmm, that's disappointing; it looked to be very accurate and more up to date than the official Premiership page. Oh well, thanks for letting me know. O for Awesome (talk) 20:45, 18 November 2014 (UTC)

 * Hi, Nzfooty,

Thanks for your comments. You are totally correct with your numbers; I went through all the matches I have and they are the same as what you have listed here, however, my adding of the results is where the errors originated. Thank you for letting me know so this could be fixed! O for Awesome (talk) 07:39, 14 August 2015 (UTC)


 * Thank you for confirming this. Much appreciated. Keep up the great work.Nzfooty (talk) 13:03, 3 September 2015 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for October 13
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Wellington Phoenix FC records and statistics, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Marco Rossi, Tyler Boyd and Hamish Watson ([//dispenser.info.tm/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dablinks.py/Wellington_Phoenix_FC_records_and_statistics check to confirm] | [//dispenser.info.tm/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dab_solver.py/Wellington_Phoenix_FC_records_and_statistics?client=notify fix with Dab solver]). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)
