GA review of Shisha Gumbad
Hello Royroydeb, you recently reviewed GA nomination of Shisha Gumbad here. Thanks for your time but it would be helpful if you can explain the reason behind the decline (as none was provided in article talkpage). Cheers,  Arun Kumar SINGH (Talk)  07:16, 25 October 2015 (UTC)


 * Hello Royroydeb, Since you have not yet replied, I am still wondering as to what is the problem with the GA nomination of Shisha Gumbad article that you failed. Neither have I seen any feedback from you (anywhere) nor any intimation to myself that you started the review and / or the reason behind the decline. What steps did you take for the GA review? If you think you made a mistake in reviewing, kindly revert the change and let someone else review the page. Arun Kumar SINGH (Talk)  05:16, 26 October 2015 (UTC)

Understanding the sources
Hello there, from Portugal,

Jorge Alonso: 1 - he did not score three goals in 36 games in his first season with UD Salamanca, he scored ZERO in ONE game; 2 - CD Leganés is in Segunda División now, yes sir, but when he signed they competed in Segunda División B. Don't worry, I have already duly cleaned up article.

Attentively --84.90.219.128 (talk) 20:09, 23 November 2015 (UTC)


 * Yes, I understand the franchise bit, but to keep everything coherent I choose this approach (FC Goa plays the same sport as, let's say, Arsenal, do they not? Hence, "club" is universal, and Atlético K (or FC Goa, etc) is from India so "Indian club" is 100% correct). The leagues (in this case the ISL or the I-L) should be dealt with in the proper storyline.

Cheers --84.90.219.128 (talk) 14:26, 24 November 2015 (UTC)


 * I'll take care of that storyline, later today. --84.90.219.128 (talk) 16:21, 24 November 2015 (UTC)

Done, you can add the chart now if you want, it will have been a good teamwork. Thanks. --84.90.219.128 (talk) 23:27, 24 November 2015 (UTC)
