List of international goals scored by Bobby Charlton

 * Nominator(s): Harrias talk 16:02, 27 August 2015 (UTC)

Modelled off the similar list for Wayne Rooney which looks as though it will be a FL in the next few days, this does have a few minor formatting variations. Charlton is still England's leading goal scorer, though Rooney looks like taking that record soon. As always, throw whatever you've got at me! Harrias talk 16:02, 27 August 2015 (UTC)


 * Support good stuff. The Rambling Man (talk) 08:28, 28 August 2015 (UTC)


 * Support on style and structure. Nice work. Lemonade51 (talk) 21:37, 15 September 2015 (UTC)


 * Support I feel this list now meets the criteria. Mattythewhite (talk) 21:58, 13 September 2015 (UTC)

Note the list ought to note that Rooney is now number one, and when he overtook Charlton's record. The Rambling Man (talk) 13:52, 9 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Done. Harrias talk 08:34, 13 September 2015 (UTC)

Comments
 * "with his first hat-trick in international football" does not seem to be referenced
 * Added ref at the end of the sentence. Harrias talk 19:41, 15 September 2015 (UTC)


 * "final international goal " should mention month/year
 * Added. Harrias talk 19:41, 15 September 2015 (UTC)


 * "successful 1966 FIFA World Cup campaign" I would prefer to have this be more explicit about ENG winning the title
 * Made this more explicit. Harrias talk 19:41, 15 September 2015 (UTC)


 * "Bloomsbury Publishing plc" shouldn't the latter be capitalized?
 * Done. Harrias talk 19:41, 15 September 2015 (UTC)


 * ref 16 and 45 are missing dates
 * They are not news sources, they don't have dates. Harrias</b> talk 19:41, 15 September 2015 (UTC)


 * I don't understand "The Times (55408)" notation
 * The number in brackets is the issue number, it's quite common when referencing The Times, and is part of what they request for citations. <b style="color:#00cc33">Harrias</b> talk 19:41, 15 September 2015 (UTC)


 * can't really check much of the refs though
 * more this to notes: England score listed first, score column indicates score after each Charlton goal.
 * I think it is important to make it obvious and clear, rather than hiding it away in the notes. <b style="color:#00cc33">Harrias</b> talk 19:41, 15 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Unless I am missing something, aren't these goals the pinnacle of his career? I think you could expand on this sentence and say one goal in the group stage, and both of goals in the 2-1 semifinal win. Nergaal (talk) 23:03, 15 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Ahh, I see what you mean. Added a bit more in now. <b style="color:#00cc33">Harrias</b> talk 13:34, 16 September 2015 (UTC)
