Mahmat Adoum
Hi Paul. Could you take a look the two French-language sources I added to Mahmat Adoum and see if there's more interesting and relevant information we can extract? I ran the texts through translation services but I find some of the results a bit confusing. For example, the role of the water pump is unclear to me… ;-) Kind regards, Robby.is.on (talk) 10:29, 25 May 2023 (UTC)
- @Robby.is.on: Robby, I apologize. I have no clue how I missed this. Do you still need my help or is this overdue? Paul Vaurie (talk) 16:23, 6 June 2023 (UTC)
- It'd great if you could have a look. Robby.is.on (talk) 16:47, 6 June 2023 (UTC)
- @Robby.is.on: Alright, so I added a sentence about his post-playing career, his place of death, and his approximate birth year based on age at death. These were all mentioned in the Le Sahel source. Now, about the other article, I understand a ceremony was held in his honour in the 4th arrondissement of N'Djamena by the Association sportive des vétérans, but the thing about the pump is confusing. The word motricité is a bit confusing to me. However, my understanding is that a human-powered water pump was inaugurated in the 4th arrondissement of N'Djamena in honour and remembrance of Adoum; later down in the article it says that the water pump will "flow drinkable water for the happiness of the people". I don't know if this makes better sense to you, but I don't think it's particularly notable to be included in the article.
Now, one thing I will suggest is moving the page name to Mahamat Adoum. Both French-language articles refer to him as Mahamat; only the NFT source calls him Mahmat. It would seem that two Chadian sources would better know how to spell his name correctly, in my opinion. Paul Vaurie (talk) 17:12, 6 June 2023 (UTC)
- Splendid! Great work, Paul, thank you. Yes, indeed, as I remember the translation it seemed like it was implied but not explicitly stated that the water pump inauguration was in honour and remembrance of Adoum. I have moved the article as you suggested. Robby.is.on (talk) 08:45, 7 June 2023 (UTC)
- @Robby.is.on: Happy I could help, Robby! If you need more help like this feel free to ask. Happy editing! Paul Vaurie (talk) 17:05, 7 June 2023 (UTC)

Jude Bellingham’s transfer to Real Madrid
Hello, I’m sorry but Jude Bellingham has just joined Real Madrid you can check on google,one football, anywhere. Real Madrid has paid 100 million for Jude Bellingham. Thank you, XPLAYZGDFBG. XPLAYZGDFBG (talk) 20:57, 7 June 2023 (UTC)
- @XPLAYZGDFBG: Respectfully, no. Real Madrid's official website has not confirmed the transfer, nor has Bellingham himself. We do not make edits based on speculation, whether it's from Fabrizio Romano or The Daily Mail. Please review WP:CRYSTAL. Also, the transfer window has NOT opened yet in Spain. See dates for the transfer window here. Please stop editing Bellingham's club on his article, or further action will have to be taken against you. Paul Vaurie (talk) 21:06, 7 June 2023 (UTC)
CPFC Website
I have already discussed this on the main talk page and it did me no favours whatsover. I got a series of unconstructive and arrogant responses from someone called Merko. You do realise the website will not update anything after the 1st July, they never do. It will be months before they update anything which i explained on the main talk page. None of those players - Nascimento, Goodman, Wells-Morrison and Rodney should be on there. They warmed the bench for one League Cup game in the autumn last year!! Oxford away. Nascimento and Balmer only played in a friendly match. You and several others are like a bunch of Stepford Clowns, relying on a website that never updates and includes players that might have only trained with the first team for a couple of weeks. This is a website that still lists Lewis Brown as being in the under 21 squad even though he now plays for permanently for Bristol Rovers!!!!! Catford Massive (talk) 22:14, 10 June 2023 (UTC)
