Eager user Danielsltt

Afternoon GS. Just want to put a name on your radar. Daniel seems largely pleasant, but is currently in the process of forking content over at Football club (association football). He first amended the lede's of large number of teams to divert to his new article (removing the links from Association Football in the process), and also changed all diverts related to football club, sports club and so on to point to his new article also. I've reverted the unconstructive stuff as being unexplained edits (especially where diverting from established article to an incomplete stub). I have discussed some of the changes so far with him at his talk page but he has since blanked it and started to remove content from one article to pad out the new one. I have reverted the removal at one end for the moment and suggested he use his sandbox rather than blanking the content of other pages. Anyway, I don't want this to seem personal from myself just purposely going around spoiling otherwise good faith edits. Koncorde (talk) 15:09, 20 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the heads up - I'm not sure we need a separate Football club (association football) article? GiantSnowman 20:39, 20 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Would agree, though the existing Football team, Sports team and Sports club are all pretty poor and underwhelming coverage of the topics (bloated WP:DICDEF, largely unsourced original research). I don't think the topic itself is particularly of note compared to say Ownership which gets some significant coverage. How a club is organised seems pretty niche if there's any sources discussing it at all. Koncorde (talk) 21:35, 20 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

sorry if I've missed it but I can't see my name mentioned anywhere on that page or the talk page? GiantSnowman 06:57, 21 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Hi GiantSnowman, you are mentioned on the Evidence page. Beccaynr (talk) 21:11, 21 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Beccaynr: thank you. @JoelleJay: I cannot see anybody proposing me as a party. Please clarify ASAP. GiantSnowman 21:22, 21 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I sent my statement on the evidence page privately to ArbCom beforehand asking if it was within the scope of the case, they emailed me back saying it was and that I had to leave one of two specific notifications on the talk pages of any users I named. JoelleJay (talk) 23:59, 21 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I repeat - where am I proposed as a party? GiantSnowman 15:40, 22 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

NPP

Hello GiantSnowman, I am new to NPP and I see that you have some background in the WP:NFOOTY guide. I wanted to get your opinion about the article for Isaac Caulker. I was unable to find significant coverage for the individual, and I see that is a major part of the guideline. Thank you in advance. Bruxton (talk) 19:01, 21 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

NFOOTBALL has been discontinued; please see WP:SPORTCRIT. If there's no significant coverage, then the player is unlikely to be notable. GiantSnowman 19:03, 21 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Oh thank you. Bruxton (talk) 19:22, 21 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

"User" Jypas1986

Per this message you sent this person (please see here ): which is exactly what they continue to do, at least in Rafa Soares and Filipe Soares (footballer, born 1999). Some sources added yes, but i bet my left hand they are copying texts verbatim to the articles here, all while using "exquisite" "English" and POV like no tomorrow.

You have been briefed, attentively --2001:8A0:767B:9C00:ED3F:1C29:6929:7F97 (talk) 23:59, 22 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
