IPA

What is the rationale behind having an IPA transcription of Bielsa's name in American Spanish, when he is an Argentine who speaks -- and presumably pronounces his own name using -- Argentine Spanish? Actionactioncut (talk) 23:29, 20 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

American Spanish means South American Spanish, which Argentina includes. Vaselineeeeeeee^★★★ 23:56, 20 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

But that's still not a pronunciation specific to Argentina, which you'd think would be the entire point. That's like putting a European Portuguese IPA transcription of Neymar's name. Actionactioncut (talk) 02:53, 21 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Image

Please can you stop chanhing the image to a old one. The newest image may not show his face clearer but it is the most recent image of Marcelo bielsa at Leeds United and the sitting on the stool is iconic as if you are familiar wirh him you know he ironically always lowers down to watch matches from that level it's a perfect image for the page. Boxingfan1995 (talk) 05:20, 24 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I don't have an opinion on which photograph to use – neither of them are very good, in my opinion – but Boxingfan1995, please note that, for images in infoboxes, you shouldn't use the [[File: etc. markup. Just put the filename as the image = parameter in the infobox. Otherwise you get an unsightly frame and weird text wrapping. I've fixed the infobox for this article.

El loco Bielsa

Why is he called madman Bielsa? He is, according to the first sentence, but there's no further mention of it, or why anyone might have coined the name for him. I would have thought that alluding to such a nickname without any justification or explanation is spuriously rude, and not at all the role of an encyclopædia. Nick Barnett (talk) 21:21, 14 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Nick Barnett "El Loco" is generally an affectionate nickname (it is more akin to "the eccentric") [1] but there are numerous claims as to how he got the name, the most popular (and possibly apocryphal) of which is that he threatened a bunch of (his own club's) hooligans with a hand grenade as described here, some more sensible ones being taking training from the top of a tree [2] or just being "crazy about football". The fact that there isn't a single explanation for it is probably why no-one has tried! Black Kite (talk) 21:58, 14 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
