Talk:The beautiful game

Page contents not supported in other languages.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Bit arrogant and narcissistic, isn't it? To appropriate this phrase for one particular sport? Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

I suppose that anyone's favorite sport is "the beautiful game" to them. To me, ice hockey is "the beautiful game." But to each their own.

The phrase is commonly used and has a widespread association with the sport. Other sports may be viewed by their fans as beautiful, but they are not commonly known as such.Lord Cornwallis (talk) 04:06, 15 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Removal of Original Research

[edit]

Hello, you may notice that I have recently removed a lot of material from this article. I did this because much of it appeared to be written as an essay and seemed to contain original research, which is inappropriate for Wikipedia. Some of the material may have been appropriate for inclusion in another article, but did not fit within this particular article. Please understand. Thanks, Cerebellum (talk) 18:03, 25 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Merger proposal

[edit]

I think that a section could be made for this particular article in the Names for association football article. This article is too small and of low importance to have a page of it's own.Pixelatedbro (talk) 23:46, 5 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Pixelatedbro: According to who this article is not important? It is referenced, the phrase is well-known in some countries (mainly in Brazil) and was recently used in FIFA 16's trailer. MYS77 02:49, 6 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
And if you want to merge it, please be sure to read WP:MERGE. You did not follow the steps. MYS77 02:50, 6 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
@MYS77: That term is used in a more comical and lighthearted aspect and not as a genuine reference to the game. Pixelatedbro (talk) 03:53, 6 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
@Pixelatedbro: It is still used, merging it will not help other people to understand this at all. However, if you're still wanting to merge the content, please follow the steps described at WP:MERGE. And please sign your posts by using four tildes (~~~~). Thank you. MYS77 03:41, 6 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
