WP:OR[edit]

What evidence is there that Macedo's father was Spanish? I believe Tony Macedo's father, Francisco Macedo, was Gibraltarian and consequently of British nationality and never played for Real Madrid. --Cybernest (talk) 11:56, 20 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Just checked the reference and I can see nothing about the sentence "he was one of only a small number of players from outside the British Isles who was playing in England" there. Either provide a RS or modify the statement to what the reference says. Anything else is just OR. Bjmullan (talk) 19:59, 6 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

You mean you can't see anything that uses the words "British Isles". Why not try looking for a reference that does use those words if you're so concerned about them. LemonMonday Talk 21:52, 27 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

This has been flagged for three weeks and no one has supplied a reference for the claim. It has been removed. As for BI SP that dead. If you want to supply a reference that would be fine. Bjmullan (talk) 22:34, 27 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

SP dead? No, I don't think so. Stop trying to delete British Isles for purely political reasons. I thought this stupidity was over now that User:HighKing has left off, but seemingly you can't help stirring it. I repeat; the British Isles Special Examples page still stands, as do the sanctions that prevent anyone from adding or deleting British Isles without agreement at that page, and of which you are now in breach.

Well of you go and report me then and when you're there see if you can find an WP:RS for the claim as it will be removed. Bjmullan (talk) 23:01, 27 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Do you know, I just can't be bothered reporting you. LemonMonday Talk 23:17, 27 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
