List of Burnley F.C. players

 * Nominator(s): WA8MTWAYC (talk) 11:59, 30 December 2020 (UTC)

I'm nominating this list about players who have made at least 100 apps for Burnley Football Club. Other, similar FLs were used as a benchmark. I'm looking forward to all feedback/reviews. WA8MTWAYC (talk) 11:59, 30 December 2020 (UTC)

 * The only thing I've really got is that notes (d) and (e) really should be the other way round, considering that the former is essentially a footnote to the latter -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 18:48, 30 December 2020 (UTC)
 * I've moved that information to the lead. WA8MTWAYC (talk) 21:53, 30 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Support -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 17:05, 31 December 2020 (UTC)


 * Support I did a couple of minor tweaks, but now think this is good to go. The Rambling Man (Stay alert! Control the virus! Save lives!&#33;!&#33;) 11:00, 2 January 2021 (UTC)


 * Support Looks good to me. ~ HAL  333  01:09, 6 January 2021 (UTC)

Thank you very much for your time and review! I've addressed the points above. Let me know what you think. WA8MTWAYC (talk) 22:19, 16 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Comments by Edwininlondon
 * The prose works very well for me. Nice work.
 * Thanks very much. WA8MTWAYC (talk) 22:19, 16 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Would an illustration of one of the most capped players in a Burnley kit not be better?
 * Agreed, replaced the image. WA8MTWAYC (talk) 22:19, 16 January 2021 (UTC)
 * All players who have ... --> I would have expected this bit to be in the list section itself, preceding the key I guess.
 * I've followed similar FLs, most of which also have this part in the lead. I think it belongs there, because it summarises some of the content/list. WA8MTWAYC (talk) 22:19, 16 January 2021 (UTC)
 * List of Manchester United F.C. players and List of Arsenal F.C. players have a section for the captains. Is there a reason why this list does not?
 * There are unfortunately no (reliable) sources which can provide this. WA8MTWAYC (talk) 22:19, 16 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Source spotcheck: #2, #3, #4, #5, #11, #12, #14, #48, #50, #52, #55 all check out
 * #13 Kelly's transfer is listed as 6,500
 * Amended. WA8MTWAYC (talk) 22:19, 16 January 2021 (UTC)
 * #35 gives caps as 311
 * Ahh, I see what's the problem. Soccerbase has included four apps in the other section (the 2008–09 Football League Championship play-offs), but this should only be three. The same problem occurs at ref 51 (Steven Thompson). E.g. the unofficial club fans website has also credited Jensen with 310 apps. Also, when clicking on every individual season, all apps sum up to 310. WA8MTWAYC (talk) 22:19, 16 January 2021 (UTC)
 * #49 gives caps as 159
 * Tarkowski played today and I updated his stats after the match. His Soccerbase profile should be updated by tomorrow. WA8MTWAYC (talk) 22:19, 16 January 2021 (UTC)
 * #51 gives caps as 101
 * Same as with Jensen. WA8MTWAYC (talk) 22:19, 16 January 2021 (UTC)
 * #57 gives caps as 127
 * Same as with Tarkowski. WA8MTWAYC (talk) 22:19, 16 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Based on that, I'd recommend a quick check on all the sums from the Soccerbase. Edwininlondon (talk) 20:54, 16 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Done. WA8MTWAYC (talk) 22:19, 16 January 2021 (UTC)
 * You're welcome. As for the number discrepancies: I had failed to realise it was matchday and these were active players. I now support this nomination. Edwininlondon (talk) 07:13, 17 January 2021 (UTC)


 * Source review – The reliability and formatting of the references look okay after the resolution of Edwin's issues, and the link-checker tool shows no problems. The source review has been passed. Giants2008  ( Talk ) 02:24, 10 February 2021 (UTC)
