Transfermarkt
Happy New Year. Just to let you know that you last edit to the Fulham season article is invalid as Transfermarkt is user generated content and not considered a Reliable source, so can't be used for transfer fees. This is also the consensus at WP:FOOTY. Any questions, let me know. JMHamo (talk) 18:59, 1 January 2015 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for January 4
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited 2014–15 Fulham F.C. season, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Lee Evans. 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.

It's not just results (Reply)
Actually, that's not true. We're volunteers and we can add whatever we like as long as it's within policy. The Rambling Man (talk) 21:12, 19 August 2015 (UTC)


 * Thank you The Rambling Man, I do believe I can edit a section in full but not all other sections. Skyblueshaun (talk) 21:18, 19 August 2015 (UTC)


 * and, without wishing to sound rude, what is the point of updating articles like that if not all of it is going to be done? It is like adding the winner to (say) 2015 Hungarian Grand Prix, but not the full race result. Spa-Franks (talk) 21:19, 19 August 2015 (UTC)


 * We all do what we can. The Rambling Man (talk) 21:20, 19 August 2015 (UTC)


 * , That is not true, You can add all off one section like I edited all of 2015–16_Fulham_F.C._season section, but as Wikipedia volunteers we do not have to edit all sections. Skyblueshaun (talk) 21:22, 19 August 2015 (UTC)


 * In the case of the latest result for the 2015–16 Sheffield Wednesday F.C. season you only included the goalscorers and the attendance. When you update it could you please include any bookings and dismissals as well because they are also included in the round by round results list - Coradia175 (talk) 21:59, 19 August 2015 (UTC)


 * Yellow cards are NOT A MUST DO in match summaries. Skyblueshaun (talk) 15:42, 28 August 2015 (UTC)


 * There was absolutely no need for the bold capital letters. I was only politely asking you to include bookings and sendings off considering the vast majority of match summaries I have seen actually do include them - Coradia175 (talk) 17:51, 28 August 2015 (UTC)

A barnstar for you! (reply)
Thanks very much for the barnstar!

You're extremely welcome for the back up. I'm pleased to see that editors are co-operating to keep the football team season pages up to date because I think that they're really useful resources - but I do agree with your point. I don't think it's very fair to just do the results and leave other editors to update the statistics which are generally much more time consuming. I always read the match reports in detail to make sure that all of the statistics categories are updated accurately and it does take a bit of time!

ArbCom elections are now open!
Hi, You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page. For the Election committee, MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 14:23, 24 November 2015 (UTC)

I'm sure you know that Twitter and Instagram are usually very poor sources indeed. You're treating this as cast-iron fact when nobody really seems to know whether it's true or a joke. You added it to Buettler's article with no source whatsoever, and then reverted me saying you fail to see how it's unsourced. Well, not adding a source for your edit makes it unsourced. Hope that's clear. Now you've added Twitter and Instagram sources there as well and I don't think it's sufficiently reliable. I've sought assistance here ; maybe you should weigh in. My personal opinion is that you're being premature and this should wait for a clearer confirmation from a more reliable source, given that this is an encyclopedia. Bretonbanquet (talk) 16:47, 28 February 2016 (UTC)
 * You've also claimed that Beuttler was "openly gay", which he wasn't, and that he publicly announced his homosexuality, which he didn't. The existing sources do make that clear. Bretonbanquet (talk) 16:55, 28 February 2016 (UTC)

Updates to Entire Page
Hello, I appreciate that it is frustrating but I DO NOT have to updated to entire page. As long as I do a whole section and date it then that is a good enough edit to sections. As for the removal of the postponed fixture, I apologize for removing it and without summarising my reason. That was a mistake, Skyblueshaun (talk) 15:01, 21 January 2017 (UTC)

Hi. This precedent is only used once, as fare as I can tell. Thanks.  Lugnuts  Fire Walk with Me 14:19, 10 June 2021 (UTC)
 * it's definitely more than once, it's just that back-to-back tours like this are very rare. English cricket team in the West Indies in 2016–17 also has a distinguisher. Spa-Franks (talk) 16:49, 10 June 2021 (UTC)

Hello, I'm TylerBurden. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Nico Rosberg, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Especially important on WP:BLP's and good articles where much work has gone into making sure everything is referenced. TylerBurden (talk) 11:35, 20 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Really not sure lap leaders needs to be sourced in articles. They are not sourced in race articles, even FAs. Spa-Franks (talk) 15:32, 21 April 2023 (UTC)
 * How are readers going to verify it's true, then? TylerBurden (talk) 11:47, 23 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Moved to WP:F1. In the interim I will add the 2009 Malaysian lap chart as the reference. Spa-Franks (talk) 16:22, 23 April 2023 (UTC)
