Ronaldo?

Why is he referred to as just "Ronaldo"? If I understand correctly, that is his middle name. I think he should be called Cristiano Ronaldo, Cristiano perhaps for short, or maybe even dos Santos (his last name). You'd never hear say, Mary-Kate Olsen as just "Kate" or John Paul Jones as just "Paul." Not only that but it leads to confusion with all of these Ronaldo_(name). ElAnimalSalvaje (talk) 16:32, 25 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The logic behind it is irrelevant. He is commonly known as "Ronaldo", end of story, albeit less commonly than he is known as "Cristiano Ronaldo". – PeeJay 02:03, 26 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Maybe he is "commonly known" that way, but (a) what is "common" vs. "not common"? i.e. what standard is used? (b) how do you prove that standard? For example, Lionel Messi is "commonly known" as "La Pulga", but there are no references to it in his article. That's just one exmample... he is known as "Leo Messi" not "Lionel", but the article only refers to his foundation (which is OFFICIALLY TITLED Leo Messi Foundation so there's no alternative) that way. You can say "not AS commonly known" but again, what is the standard/cut-off? I'm willing to leave it as is, I really am... but I find your response ("logic = irrelevant... end of story") completely unsatisfactory. ElAnimalSalvaje (talk) 17:34, 5 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
If Lionel Messi is commonly referred to as "La Pulga", stick it in the article. No one is stopping you. However, the fact remains that Cristiano Ronaldo is commonly referred to as just "Ronaldo". There's no arguing that fact. It may not be his most common name, but it is a name commonly used to refer to him. – PeeJay 23:07, 5 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

So ready for change on the 1st of july

Edit request on 24 December 2011

the career statistics table has quiet good information. but it would have been better if assists were also mentioned besides just goals. if an citation is needed http://soccernet.espn.go.com/player/_/id/22774/cristiano-dos-santos-aveiro-ronaldo?cc=5739 can be used.

really looking forward to a positive change.

People comparing Ronaldo with Messi would find assists useful. Cant find a single source for Ronaldo assists, but must exist somewhere as they do for Messi. They play in all the same competitions. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 121.90.181.5 (talk) 23:15, 7 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Cristiano Ronaldo is 185.1 cm as measured by a laser in the Castrol challenge, which would round down to 185 cm. Please correct.Italic text — Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.214.131.210 (talk) 17:43, 27 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

First, his height. There's a valid reference for 186.5cm, given in the intial infobox template. Do you have a reference for this laser height test? If you do have one, then it should list both heights, since they both would presumably be valid references. As to his career assists, his career goals are broken up by clubs, Olympics, etc. Do you have a source that would break his assists up like that? Otherwise it would sort of look a little funny to have them hanging out on their own, since he only has six assists in his career. That's my opinion, at least. Please let me know on my talk page if you'd like more help. :) Banaticus (talk) 11:36, 5 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Yes. Don't know how this works but here, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VpMhf5XWNEw 10:55. Surely a laser body scanner is the most accurate, regardless of the first reference. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2.120.47.90 (talk) 19:05, 7 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Not done. {{convert|1.851|m|ftin|0|abbr=on}} to {{convert|1.86|m|ftin|0|abbr=on}} would display as: "1.851 m (6 ft 1 in) to 1.86 m (6 ft 1 in)" That's not really a difference, as far as feet and inches go, and the centimeter difference is within the range of average height variation throughout the day on Human height#Average height around the world. Also, the YouTube reference isn't valid -- it's not the official Castrol Edge YouTube channel. If you'd like any further help, contact me on my user talk page. You might instead want to put a {{help me}} template up on your own user talk, or put the {{edit semi-protected}} template back up on this page and either way someone will be along to help you. :) Banaticus (talk) 20:35, 9 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I don't know what the ESM team of the year is. European Sports Media gives no references, so that page should probably be deleted. The ESM website makes mention of a team of the month, but I don't see anything about a team of the year. The globe soccer link you gave says that the winners are Mendes, Galliani, and Gil -- no mention is made of Ronaldo other than that he "sprang a surprise by sending a double video message..." I'm not seeing that Ronaldo won anything there. As far as assists go, I see that he made six career assists, but I don't see them broken down as to when he made them (whether in the Olympics, in a regular game, etc.), which is why I haven't added them to the article. Besides, it's only six assists, not very much -- he's no Michael Jordan. Do you know of any newspaper articles, any magazines, any news articles that talk about these things? You might want to sign your comments with four ~'s, with ~~~~ which will then be automatically replaced with your signature, so that people can more easily see who made a comment. :) Banaticus (talk) 21:12, 10 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Please change the appearances and goal tally for his Manchester United F.C. years to 292 appearances and 118 goals. Through a video source, it shows he has that many goals in his 292 appearances. Source of my proof will be after the corrected code.

| years2 = 2003–2009 |clubs2 = Manchester United |caps2 = 292 |goals2 = 118

Wrong statment regarding Ronaldo as fastest to 100 goals

It has been reported that Ronaldo is the fastest player in la liga history to reach 100 goals (92 games), however, this is false since another player alredy did reach 100 goals faster (less games). The player in question is the Asturian Isidro Lángara (Oviedo) which reached 100 goals in only 82 games:

  • season 1933-34 18 matcher 26 goals
  • season 1934-35 22 matcher 27 goals
  • season 1935-36 21 matcher 28 goals
  • season 1946-47 20 matcher 18 goals
  • season 1947-48 scored in his first appearance on matchday 2

This gives 100 goals in 82 games — Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.54.198.204 (talk) 10:23, 3 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

how do you know this? There needs to be a reference to add this information to the article. 24.22.140.222 (talk) 09:20, 8 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Here is the reference, Lángara, el recordman de la Liga, que alcanzó la centena de goles a los 82 partidos http://www.marca.com/2012/03/21/futbol/equipos/real_madrid/1332316153.html

And one more reference from the official club page Real Madrid.com la mejor marca del campeonato lograda por el jugador del Oviedo Lángara, que necesitó 82 partidos. http://www.realmadrid.com/cs/Satellite/es/Actualidad_Primer_Equipo/1330091624401/noticia/Noticia/Cristiano_Ronaldo_es_el_jugador_que_antes_llega_a_los_100_goles_en_Liga_en_la_historia_del_Real_.htm

Move the reference to the Castrol documenta-movie?

The documentary is definitely not relevant to that particular season, and most of the comments about it are uncited. It could probably be added to the intro with 'is able to score with his head and feet' as generic info about him. 24.22.140.222 (talk) 09:23, 8 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

for clarity - I am referring to these sentences, currently under '2011-2012 season'. In the first weeks of September, Ronaldo's physical performance was subject to scrutiny by world media, after Castrol released a television film named Ronaldo: Tested to the Limit where he was put to test in several fields, including mental and physical. Conclusions from the movie and doctors in the weeks following claimed that Ronaldo was one of the best athletes in the world, excelling in football and outstanding in almost every other category.[citation needed] Several sources[weasel words] drew comparisons between him and other top athletes, including sprinter Usain Bolt.[citation needed] 24.22.140.222 (talk) 09:25, 8 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
