FIFA & UEFA Football Events.

Hello, I think I might give up on FIFA & UEFA related football events because user's do not listen to the no live scores policy. I have been banned from trying to stop it and getting frustrated with the amount of edit conflicts. Skyblueshaun (talk) 15:55, 10 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Cesc Fàbregas 3RR

Hello GS, there seems to be a bit of an edit war going on between two users on Cesc Fàbregas. Could you please add to your watchlist and monitor. Thanks JMHamo (talk) 09:56, 11 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you so much for bring this up.--Miunouta (talk) 15:29, 11 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Cesc Fabregas

Hello. Thanks for your message. I DID use the Talk page after two reverts. And several users have been undoing my edits to Cesc Fabregas multiple times without clearly explaining why in the Talk page while I did, in order to avoid edit warring, and nobody listens. The above user who reported this issue was also the one who told me on Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Football/Players that assists/clean sheets should be removed. I found this very intriguing and logically inconsistent as I did what he said and he reported me. Also, could you explain why this user has not been warned for violating the three-revert rule on Carl Jenkinson. More importantly, the stats table of Fabregas has 3 other problems as I listed on the Talk page. I spent hours helping fix these problems and a) it got undone, b) I got warned for that. Please read my comments on the Talk page of Cesc Fabregas first before deciding who's right and who's wrong. Thanks --Miunouta (talk) 15:47, 11 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks a lot for your reply, I never said that you said who's right and who's wrong. I WILL give up on helping edit Carl Jenkinson if you keep thinking that way. However, I still do not understand why you think my edits were disruptive. What I did was simply replacing the 4 Soccerbase references with 1 ESPN reference while keeping the source for that one FA Trophy game. As the above user stated, we should try to make it "easy for readers to verify". The ESPN source states very clearly how many games/goals the player has played/scored in each season and each competition. However, the Soccerbase pages does not state clearly how many games/goals the player has played/scored in each competition and you have to literally count them if you want to verify the stats. How does that make it easier for readers to verify the stats? The above user has not been able to address that. As for Fabregas, still, no one listens to what I said on the Talk page. It's quite unbelievable that I am the only one who is trying fix the problems I listed on the talk page and everyone else is trying to stop me from doing that. --Miunouta (talk) 16:18, 11 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Again, it is not okay for me to accidentally violate the three-revert rule without being fully aware of it while it is okay for the above user to violate the same rule when he knows everything about it? Why didn't you get him a warning?--Miunouta (talk) 16:23, 11 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

(talk page stalker) Miunouta, can I refer you to the comments on WP:FOOTY Players from Struway2, where this is explained. JMHamo (talk) 16:27, 11 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, you deleted the orig text, restored it. Then removed it. I gave up again. It appears even as someone who has direct contact with the artist ,and helped produce some of the material for distribution you seem to disallow the sources? What proof is needed to reaffirm the sources are reliable. In one case the ytube link, I have the physical raw film here on my desk in front of me, which was used at the telecine. A number of phonecalls have been coming in my direction as of this week. Also the flickr image, how is this ambiguous? The artwork is on file here. What does wikipedia require in order to do it correctly. Also,I have to point out the origional article sat since 2009 without much attention from mods. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Thx1138x (talk • contribs) 17:40, 11 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for help. I wasnt aware being able to source directly information was a conflict of interest. There is no financial gain,not that it matters,your point makes sense, appreciate the angle. In that respect, can I gently suggest the following links added to the music producer section, and no further editing on my behalf. Sorry I had not realised this was becoming such a problem.

There are some press cuttings regarding performances,which can be located and can be linked or uploaded. My difficulty as you pointed out,is if theres a conflict of interest. He did perform as Sound Crowd for a 20th anniversary gig at the button factory in Dublin as a "one off" and its documented on their official fb page. However I fear it may not be what is required or would stand up. I have sent some request for press clippings and can upload else where and link for approval later if thats ok. Thanks for your help,its appreciated. Thx1138x (talk) 18:27, 11 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, I did a trawl and came up with, http://i.imgur.com/z09HBps.jpg?1 one press review concerning attention by fatboyslim. Also, http://imgur.com/qUPMNWY review of 5th9 album.Orig sleeve artwork can be supplied if allowable. Theres more press concerning various singles,but the billboard mention is significant perhaps?
