About your recent AfC submissions
Hello! I ran into your drafts for Otso Liimatta and Miika Koskela, so I wanted to thank you for submitting them.

However, I made some edits to both pages, so you can have a better idea on how this type of articles should be structured. Remember, portals like Worldfootball.com and BeSoccer are good sources, but they're usually more suitable as "External links", rather than references... Still, I think you've made a good start.

Cheers!

 * I have added a new source (from local paper, about the person in question) to the article which is now draftified. Would that satisfy the need? Syvä-äksy (talk) 22:06, 2 October 2023 (UTC)
 * Syvä-äksy (talk) 11:05, 6 October 2023 (UTC)
 * I personally would say yes.  ULPS ( talk •  contribs ) 11:08, 6 October 2023 (UTC)

Sergi Roberto
Good morning, from Portugal,

first of all, i apologise for my edit summaries, totally uncalled for. Now, for some teamwork: no need for all that detail in the birthplace, it's quite established in the intro and infobox the subject is Spanish. Also, we don't link major countries (i.e. Spain) per WP:OVERLINK.

Sorry for any inconvenience, happy editing/2024! RevampedEditor (talk) 12:18, 9 January 2024 (UTC)


 * Good afternoon from Finland :) That's no problem. And my intentions were not to claim that he is something else than Spanish. I just thought it is a relevant info to add the autonomous region with the country name, as with Oscar Wiklöf. Happy editing you too! @RevampedEditor Syvä-äksy (talk) 12:34, 9 January 2024 (UTC)

Just chiming in
Hello there! I'm a bit confused about your decision to revert my edits on Otso Liimatta and Abdoulaye Kanté, so I'll try to elaborate more on why I made them in the first place...

About the first article: when we split the "Club career" section in paragraphs for different clubs, it's usually enough to put the shorter, better-known name of each team ("Famalicão"), rather than their full name ("F.C. Famalicão"), although there are a few exceptions to the rule, like Sporting CP and AC Milan. See articles like this and this one as further examples.

In the second case, I admit I probably went too far by adding that template, but still, remember that all of the statements included in a page need to be supported by citations; I can help you retrieve some of them, if needed! Oltrepier (talk) 14:29, 9 January 2024 (UTC)


 * Hello, yes I have seen both styles used, and I just personally thought it would be better with F.C. prefix.
 * And when it comes to Kanté article, there was actually nothing new in the section you marked, that didn't already appear in the info box section, which is also based on worldfootball and soccerway, which are listed as external links in the article already. @Oltrepier Syvä-äksy (talk) 14:39, 9 January 2024 (UTC)
 * True, but having a few reliable, third-party sources in addition would be nice, in my view... Oltrepier (talk) 14:48, 9 January 2024 (UTC)
 * Yes I agree, I just assumed those third and fourth tier teams might not have a big media coverage and didn't even try to search, maybe should have. Oltrepier Syvä-äksy (talk) 15:01, 9 January 2024 (UTC)

Autopatrolled
Hi Syvä-äksy, I just wanted to let you know that I have added the autopatrolled user right to your account. This means that pages you create will automatically be marked as 'reviewed', and no longer appear in the new pages feed. Autopatrolled is assigned to prolific creators of articles, where those articles do not require further review, and may have been requested on your behalf by someone else. It doesn't affect how you edit; it is used only to manage the workload of new page patrollers.

Since the articles you create will no longer be systematically reviewed by other editors, it is important that you maintain the high standard you have achieved so far in all your future creations. Please also try to remember to add relevant WikiProject templates, stub tags, categories, and incoming links to them, if you aren't already in the habit; user scripts such as Rater and StubSorter can help with this. As you have already shown that you have a strong grasp of Wikipedia's core content policies, you might also consider volunteering to become a new page patroller yourself, helping to uphold the project's standards and encourage other good faith article writers.

Feel free to leave me a message if you have any questions. Happy editing! –&#8239;Joe (talk) 12:05, 12 January 2024 (UTC)


 * On a minor note, I did notice the same thing as Lightburst above when reviewing your articles. Overloading sentences with citations is to be avoided because the purpose of citations is to allow readers verify the information—not for our benefit as editors—and it is rarely necessary to cite more than two or three sources for that. If you want to save sources for further expansion, it's better to use a further reading section or refideas on the talk page. Conversely, every sentence in a BLP really ought to have an inline citation, even if it repeats one from elsewhere in the article. –&#8239;Joe (talk) 12:10, 12 January 2024 (UTC)
 * Thanks! and thanks for the feedback, I am trying to get better everyday and learn all the things need to be taken into account, and change my attitude.
 * I started to add multiple citations earlier when Tony Miettinen article was tagged with notability tag even though it already had four sources from different medias, but good to know that it's not necessary and less is better.
 * Categories and incoming links are usually taken care of, but I'll try to learn more of wikiprojects and talk pages.
 * And I try to maintain at least this level or higher from now on.@Joe RoeSyvä-äksy (talk) 12:36, 12 January 2024 (UTC)

Invitation to join New pages patrol
Hello Syvä-äksy! Thank you for your consideration. We hope to see you around! MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 15:21, 22 February 2024 (UTC)
 * The New Pages Patrol is currently struggling to keep up with the influx of new articles needing review. We could use a few extra hands to help.
 * We think that someone with your activity and experience is very likely to meet the guidelines for granting.
 * Reviewing/patrolling a page doesn't take much time, but it requires a strong understanding of Wikipedia’s CSD policy and notability guidelines.
 * Kindly read the tutorial before making your decision, and feel free to post on the project talk page with questions.
 * If patrolling new pages is something you'd be willing to help out with, please consider applying here.

Nomination of Yllson Lika for deletion
A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Yllson Lika, to which you have significantly contributed, is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or if it should be deleted.

The discussion will take place at Articles for deletion/Yllson Lika until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion. Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article.

Joakim Latonen
Please can you stop messing with the stats? As per your edits, following his last game he played but did not score, then you said he scored 1 goal, now you've just said he scored 2 goals... GiantSnowman 12:35, 13 April 2024 (UTC)


 * Yes, that's true @GiantSnowman Syvä-äksy (talk) 12:36, 13 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Or actually, he scored three goals :) Syvä-äksy (talk) 12:37, 13 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Come on now, this is ridiculous... GiantSnowman 13:30, 13 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Okay, no more live-editing... @GiantSnowman Syvä-äksy (talk) 13:32, 13 April 2024 (UTC)
 * No, do NOT live edit. This is a perfect example of why. Please do not update match stats (whether a player’s or a club’s or a league table etc.) until the player’s involvement in the match has finished / the match itself has finished. That means (especially, for example, if another goal is scored) that errors can be minimised. Many thanks. GiantSnowman 13:32, 13 April 2024 (UTC)

Miro Tenho
Please can you give your references more useful names? On the Miro Tenho article there is a ref called 'ref' and a ref called 'REF'... GiantSnowman 03:41, 16 May 2024 (UTC)


 * Using reference names like this are WP:POINTy and disruptive. Please grow up - if you cannot edit sensibly and seriously, I will raise the matter at ANI. GiantSnowman 16:14, 19 May 2024 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I'm growing up all the time. I have no bad intentions with what I'm doing here and I guess you have really seen it already (at least from the amount of constructive edits I have made to the pages on your watchlist). I respect you for your experience here and all the contributions you have made here over the years apparently. I still find it a bit frustrating how you have confronted me and my edits all the way from the beginning, and yes I have answered to it. I have not made any vandalizing nonsense editing (I mean a real nonsense), and even though my area of interests in en.wikipedia is not very wide, I think I am also sometimes creating valuable content in at least ok-level English. I have also seen that there are not so many active football editors nowadays. Anyway I want to apologize all the personal innuendo in my edit summaries, it was just frustration.@GiantSnowman Syvä-äksy (talk) 16:36, 19 May 2024 (UTC)
 * That's OK, I appreciate your apology. The majority of your edits are good, please do not interpret any of my edits in response or my posts here as anything other than trying to improve Wikipedia and help make you a better editor! GiantSnowman 17:00, 19 May 2024 (UTC)
