Hi there MATTY,
taking Stefano Sorrentino as an example: please take a look at his footnotes, what exactly does this bring to the table, other than economic overdetail about a SPORTS bio? I see the user in question MATTHEWHK, also "engages" in invisible refs (also seen in same article, #5 and #6), but here he took it up a notch.
I tried to correct the English in the footnotes, but had to stop midway through it because I had no clue what was being conveyed there (at least he admits it in his userpage, his level of English is a "2"). Another invisible ref added today (please see here https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Santiago_Solari&diff=next&oldid=606945300).
I remember i started a discussion years ago, dunno what came of it. What should we do? Start another one and notify him to participate? Since i'm leaving nine weeks from now, i think it's only fair to tell you (and WP in general) how it "stands" as of now, so you can decide on any developments you see fit.
Cheers, happy week --AL (talk) 16:28, 5 May 2014 (UTC)

RE: Jason Matthews
Hi Matty,
Sorry not spoken to a mod on here before, hope I'm doing it right.
Jason didn't miss a league game last season (since he joined in June 2013). You can go through the fixtures on the Weymouth FC website and double check if needs be (as I have already done) http://www.theterras.co.uk/website/fixtures.htm

Matty, any idea as to what i am doing wrong in this guy's external link #2? I think this link is worth keeping, as it is a French reliable link (Professional Football League) for a French footballer.
Attentively, thank you very much as always --AL (talk) 23:41, 5 May 2014 (UTC)
- No mate, i was not asking for permission (although i am moved by my politeness :)), i was asking if you (if you can't please ask someone else, i don't know what's wrong) could fix the link's display, the first wording, "tallec-anthony", must be removed.
Cheers again --AL (talk) 00:51, 6 May 2014 (UTC)
Does he give up?
Certainly not! "He" being User:Bruno corinthiano, here's the last i found (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/186.225.6.214). He received a message about a glitch he created on Ignacio Camacho, and he proceeded to correct the error AFTERWARDS, proof that he does read and understand messages.

Luke Foster
Fixed, thank you for noticing. The refs for his England C career on the Luke Foster page had gone dead, so I've replaced them with archive.org versions. The pages may still exist somewhere on the FA website, but it's been "redesigned" again, so a load more stuff has disappeared, and (assuming such a thing to be possible) it's even more difficult to navigate. cheers, Struway2 (talk) 13:54, 7 May 2014 (UTC)
Paul James Robinson footballer 1971
Great fine detail on a player that has hitherto remained hidden and forgotten but the Scarborough article is inaccurate based on fact and you seem to highlight negative quotes out of context by former manager you should balance with factual truths in same passage. There are several key facts and more interesting additions in career section.This is purely objective and factual. Collin Morris/Scarborough refused an offer of £75,000(downpayment) for Robinson on 21st October 1989 from Ipswich Town. Several first division clubs were pursuing him at that time . Morris was looking for £250,000 for Robinson. Morris wrote a handwritten letter to Robinson after he was sacked .Quote" you've got all the talent in the world- I've told you that a thousand times" Robinson was given a professional contract(can be cited -letter from Notts County-dated 25/11/85 and a solicitors letter) by his home town club NCFC when Jimmy Sirrel, Youth team manager Mick Walker and coach Russell Slade visited him at his home when he was 14. Jimmy Sirrel stepped down as manager and director when Robinson began his YTS scheme in June 1987. He represented Notts County at Youth team and A team level on only very limited occasions during 1987/88 and felt that despite having more jobs and tasks to do than any other player he played considerably less than most schoolboys were being played during this same time. Mick Walker frequently ordered Robinson to run 7 miles back from the Stoke Bardolph training ground in his studs for such serious misdemeanours as 'failing to stretch' properly. Robinson felt at the end of his first year YTS he had no other option but to leave the club-despite manger John Barnwell telling him the club would honour his professional contract when he became 18. Throughout this period Paul Hart (coach) and Alan Hill kept encouraging Paul. Paul signed for Bury and after representing 1st team against Man Utd in pre-season and playing consistently in Reserves and 'A' Teams were he was top goal scorer in both. Manager Martin Dobson refused to give him a contract but told him' I'm not saying you won't make it as a professional player -I think you will..but just not here'. Robinson's fee when he was sold to Plymouth was reported to be £15,000 in fact it was never disclosed. He signed a 2 year contract with Plymouth. Paul demanded a transfer - Manager Dave Kemp would not grant him one. Paul subsequently submitted a written request. Again the figure Robinson was sold to HUFC was undisclosed. Paul was on the transfer list two days before newly appointed manager John Sillett made him his first and only player from 8 new Summer signings to pay money for. He had a medical and x-rays were taken-requirement and practice at the time for players who were insured for more than £75,000. Hereford only won 3 away league games all season- Robinson started 7 league games and in all the away victories.In one appearance versus York City away, Paul was introduced as a sub in the latter stages of the match. He was substituted after 10 minutes. Manager John Sillett resigned the next week. Paul was the quickest player over 100 yards and any distance over including long distance. Paul did not appear on sprint challenge despite winning the club's internal heat. After Robinson retired a former opposition player from a league match Robinson featured in- Adrian Thorpe playing for Northampton Town in Hereford's 1-0 away victory, where Robinson despite being sent off was awarded 9/10 in both Match and Shoot, declared to a room of Arnold Town players -"The best performance he had ever seen by any centre forward anywhere!" referring to the aforementioned game.

David Querol Blanco - AfD as can be
Hi there MATTY, AL "here",
please see that this is deleted. I fear that the creator has not grasped the WP:NOTABILITY concept as of yet and the fact that this is an encyclopedia, as much as myself and User:MYS77 have explained it to him. Sigh...
Happy week --AL (talk) 16:18, 12 May 2014 (UTC)
- In an unrelated matter: did what you suggested regarding honours in Pepe Mel, which is ref them in the prose so we did not have to ref them afterwards, had EVERYTHING summarily removed by the usual suspect, Giant Snowman (i would understand if he removed those accolades not mentioned in prose, but he removed ALL! I have since ref'd the others in prose). Could you have a word with him please, because i seem to be still doing something wrong (1 - in articles; 2 - in my exchanges with him) and would like to know what?
P.S. Apologies to anyone concerned, i blew a gasket in Mel's edit summary, but i am feeling very frustrated, to put it mildly. Don't worry, you won't have to put up with my antics for much longer (60 days)... --AL (talk) 16:44, 12 May 2014 (UTC)
- No reply, no AfD, was i unpolite? Ah, and for clarification purposes, when i said "YOU won't have to put with my antics...", i meant WP in general, not "you" Matty. Sorry if i offended you, nonetheless. --AL (talk) 00:42, 13 May 2014 (UTC)

Matty
Many thanks for deleting stuff that I corrected before I had chance to work out how to add references. Some of the stuff you deleted was just me making two things agree on the page - the text said one thing and the stats another. Perhaps your eagle eyes need to look at existing stuff rather than jumping on someone trying to help. It took me over half an hour to work out how to do the tables in the ridiculously weird code, and then research the exact details for accuracy - again before getting roudn to figuring out how to do the x-referencing.

As you possibly may know, Valdés' official last day with FC Barcelona is June 30th. Technically he's still a player until that day but he's been injured and will be until the last day of the contract (confirmed by multiple sources, do research in case you have doubts) therefore mentioning that he lastly played for FC Barcelona is the reasonable and/or rational thing to do. He lastly played for BAR, and it's not official as of yet where he will be heading. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.229.166.205 (talk) 18:20, 14 May 2014 (UTC)
Rescue please
Matty, see why i should have left by now (and will so, on 12 JULY 2014, no turning point now)? Oops, started this "letter" with the ending :)
Another heated summary from yours truly (see here https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Jorge_Jesus&diff=608629545&oldid=608611316, just the first sentence, the "And of course i'll rephrase you and your one-liners and overlinking TOS!" bit was for another user, with whom i have talked long and hard about overlinking/proper display of refs, seemingly to no avail), this time an idiotic albeit without expletives one, resulted on a superscolding (here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Always_Learning#Jorge_Jesus). Certes, i had it coming, it was totally deserved, but i apologized immediately after writing that summary, and AFTER the fellow user replied, so i did it from the heart (OK, i also knew he would know of that because my edit was an "undo" of his own, but still).
Could you please mediate? No, no need to tell him "Please forgive him" or the sorts, just something to let Mr.Correia know i'm not this "holier than thou" guy, quite the contrary. I admit it does give the impression since the person does not know me. My actions were poor(ish), his subsequent actions (no apologies and the subsequent taunting) were the same. I PROMISE (this one is for keeps, believe me) this will be my last stupid summary towards non-vandals, with vandals i can't promise anything man.
I leave as i started: see why i should have left by now? This bipolar condition i have keeps besting me at all times, seemingly there's nothing i can do about it, and i know that because of me (not only because of me, but because of me) WP is becoming less and less fun to edit in a team spirit.

See why i should quit? Part 2
Some idiot keeps removing that Pedro Caixinha was fired in his day as C.D. Nacional manager, even though no POV is written and nothing negative is said about him, just stating the facts (managers do get fired, right?).
Ah, he was NEVER fired by Nacional, but this "user" keeps adding the Ramón de Carranza Trophy to his honours, when it is nothing but a PRE-SEASON friendly tournament. His agent, his wife or girlfriend going at it? I don't know, maybe i'm headstrong to the core, but i'd never pull one like that. Moreover, why bother getting in touch with this countryman of mine (i have, once just to be on the safe side) when he has a dynamic IP.
I'll hang on until 12 JULY, but after that never more, endured what i could, WP is not the problem (it has its guidelines and procedures), maybe it's me! --AL (talk) 01:56, 16 May 2014 (UTC)
- BTW, the correct honours of the CONCACAF Champions League have also been removed by you know who alongside the friendly accolades, i have now ref'd it in the prose. --AL (talk) 02:07, 16 May 2014 (UTC)
Cosmic...
Mr. Correia (the chap with whom i had a run-in in Jorge Jesus), seems to have still not read your message, so maybe that's why he still has not returned to my page to further insult me (now for being a crybaby and "telling on him" to you when all i wanted was a little support to further reassure him of my intentions), let's hope for the best.
Now, for the title of this message, this is absolutely mindblowing: a countryman of mine (this one https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/85.240.136.129) has proceeded to remove ALL the refs in honours in the S.L. Benfica players, with the summary "Not needed". In Rodrigo Moreno Machado he removed THREE (please see here https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Rodrigo_Moreno_Machado&diff=608830766&oldid=608699492), then had the nerve to send me a message with the eerie title "I know what you did...".
I have already messaged him thoroughly, asking if my "crime" was the insertion of refs in honours (and telling him refs HAVE TO BE ref'd in the section when/if they are not in prose, otherwise they will be removed) or something else. But again, as in Pedro Caixinha's case, this guy has a massive array of IPs, maybe he'll never even read the message. If you notice articles related to S.L. Benfica, you'll see several hailing from Setúbal starting with 85.240 or 85.247, that's him.

Season stats
Hello. I do hope you're not looking for consistency. I've got all the pre-war ones sortable, with playing positions as words and no nationalities at all. Post-war, they're unsortable, the positions are abbreviated (and unlinked, which I'd only realised when looking at the current one while writing this...) and nationalities are in, as flag with trigramme. Apart from the current one, where I've been experimenting.
I find the sortability useful, and suspect that readers might agree, but it does make the table wide (even with only three competitions, for someone like me who can't cope with small print). As to nationality, I prefer the full country name in general, or a rational abbreviation (e.g. D.R. Congo), one reason why I use the alternative squad list. But in a season stats table, there are a lot of relatively narrow data columns, and having a wide nationality column right next to the player's name is visually intrusive, and perhaps distracts more than it helps. So I think I'm going back to having the table unsorted, and have flag and trigramme in the nationality column.
If the table was unsortable, so there's less of a width problem, would you write out the playing positions or use two-letter abbreviations (with wikilinks, obviously)? cheers, Struway2 (talk) 15:05, 21 May 2014 (UTC)

RE: John Sheridan
Hi MattyTheWhite, my edit on John Sheridan (footballer) was removed because there was no citation link. It is to my knowledge that many sections and contributions to articles titles 'Personal life' are not linked to a citation, as there are often no online sources to link. I don't think that the Wikipedia community would appreciate it if the only evidence for a point was on a piece of paper, or on a television programme. SkTheJanner (talk) 13:55, 23 May 2014 (UTC)
Height template
Matty, are the actions undertaken by user JIMP in Eduardo Berizzo's article, removing the height template and writing the data manually? I think they are not, but if they are (i doubt it, not four doubting his good intentions but because of the other MILLION examples) i'll stop reverting him and will apologize in his page of course.

re: Dates
Hi,
I have always been told that any date after the match is accepted (at least for infoboxes) and the template is named "updated", which to me is the date when the table was updated. The reader can then see that "ohh it was recently updated". I have always added the date as of when I made the update and verified it against source. However I was not aware of what that MOS said and even if it is outdated (for example we should not say what league a player plays in in the lead, only club, since league can change without article being updated), perhaps we should follow it anyway. I am way to tired to look up old discussions now to see if I can find any consensus (I will check when I have the time), but you may be right. QED237 (talk) 23:58, 23 May 2014 (UTC)
Two birds to start the week...
1 - you have already warned him (please see here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:181.50.74.183). Seems he engages in adding those beautiful (needless?) numbers in honours and removing the runner-up accolades as well, even though even THIRD-PLACES count in some tournaments!
2 - has been moving pages like crazy (here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/Yucheng48), and his explanatory summaries never state anything but the obvious ("Gabi is a Spanish footballer", for example). By the way, for coherence purposes, shouldn't we move the pages of the footballers named KEKO as well (there are two, born 1973 and born 1991)?
Cheers, happy one --AL (talk) 15:19, 26 May 2014 (UTC)
But his actions (#2's actions that is) here were totally wrong (see here https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Mika_(footballer)&diff=609636629&oldid=596840788), as we still have Michael da Conceição Figueiredo. --AL (talk) 15:53, 26 May 2014 (UTC)
- Thank you for everything! --AL (talk) 16:00, 26 May 2014 (UTC)
Matty, i think we should be extra careful dismissing the other full name possibility, as the source from where it comes from is totally dedicated to Celta de Vigo players (YO JUGUÉ EN EL CELTA - I PLAYED FOR CELTA in English), so they could be onto something. BDFUTBOL.com is very reliable for Spanish football/ers yes sir, but it's not without error.
By the way, i reverted some of your stuff in intro because player's not known as Eduardo Berizzo, but Berizzo. As much as Wayne Mark Rooney is not known as "Wayne Rooney", but "Rooney". My caps in the summary were not me shouting mind you, but stressing the word i wanted to be stressed.
Cheerio --AL (talk) 16:03, 27 May 2014 (UTC)
- Answering your question in very first line, yes they do, exactly the same naming customs approach for all South/Central American people (first surname from father, second from mother, as opposed to Portuguese for instance). Indeed, according to BDFUTBOL.com Messi also has "Cuccittini" in his full name. I know his father is JORGE MESSI, have no idea as to what his mother's surname is, maybe it's this new one, maybe she does not have one. I do notice that the article here does not reflect it, and neither does the OFFICIAL Barcelona website, with this page (http://www.fcbarcelona.com/football/first-team/staff) displaying all first-team members with their full names, and with no "Cuccittini" in "sight".
Regarding the last lines, i am still baffled greatly: if he is known as Berizzo, why should we say he is known as something else? That is in no way misleading to the reader in my opinion, first line is for the full name, then we write "known as" to say how the person is known in their given field of expertise.
Reliable sources for Mr. Berizzo's name? I tried to visit Celta's website, but Luis Enrique Martínez García still appears as the manager for them. --AL (talk) 18:05, 27 May 2014 (UTC)
- What i meant is for example in a sportscast, the reporters/announcers will refer to them as Berizzo/Rooney, unless one is part of the breed of pedantic Portuguese reporters who need to refer to the player's name and surname (and sometimes even a third name) 99,999999999999% of the time. Speaking of televised news, don't know how it works in your country (i watch BBC NEWS and SKY NEWS very little, but they seem normal), but Sociedade Independente de Comunicação has got to be THE WORST news channel there is in the world, where football gets the upper hand everytime as the thing that matters the most, Cristiano Ronaldo is the undisputed god among mortals (i am not kidding, when he was presented at Real Madrid, it was the opening news and the segment lasted 90 MINUTES, 90 minutes of him kicking a ball, waving at the crowd and showing the grease in his hair). Football-related topics are ALWAYS presented with the "reporter" standing and parading him(her)self in front of a neat graphic, other topics only get that treatment once in a while, pure rubbish. And that sentiment comes from a guy who loves football, mind you!
Sorry i wandered off from the subject so much, cheers --AL (talk) 22:25, 27 May 2014 (UTC)

Gael Kakuta.....
I was at the game on May 23rd in Sofia, Bulgaria and Kakuta did score 1 goal in this game - the second goal for Lazio. Looking at his page on Wikipedia, he has played only one game for Lazio before that and did not score a goal; therefore, I added the comment that he has scored his first goal for Lazio in a friendly against Levski Sofia. It could be easily checked on any site that shows scores.... it's there.....

See what i mean man? We have tons of refs (almost literally!) to explain his versatility. OK you could also call him a forward instead of a pure striker, but i guarantee you (i saw him play loads of games) "striker" is not wrong at all. Well, the "users" keep removing the player position over and over again.
That it why when i retire it's to never return again, not even as a reader, i'm not to enter (in this case) Enrique's article and find it keeps being attacked, which will lead me to start the process of editing again. Plus, this is one of those articles - i'm almost 100% sure - that if i do not watch no one will, so there. For your information, the last idiot i reverted (starting with 186) is User:Bruno corinthiano, don't know if it's worth blocking because the IP only has one edit in five days; like i told you, i can't promise anything with vandals, and i exploded again in the summary. I don't think it's worth it to block me since i'll leave in one month and a half, but if you see it fit i won't protest of course.

Hi, I was not aware of that. There are so many players rumoured to change club and changed all over wiki and I am trying to keep up.

One has to wonder...
...what did Jan Kromkamp do while at Liverpool that was so horrible and unforgivable? Maybe underperform at a couple of games? Idiots keep vandalizing (top notch "contributions") his page, every time i return to the article (normally six months or one year apart) there it is, pityful.
Luckily several well-intended users have been watching, punks have been stopped in their tracks. Well, here's one that won't be stopping anyone 39 days from now... Regards --AL (talk) 23:30, 3 June 2014 (UTC)
- That promotion is nothing in my humble opinion, just an achievement that was accomplished. For crying out loud, Go Ahead finished in SIXTH place when they promoted, that's never an honour. One that will be missed (please see here) told me some years ago he remembered seing Southampton players receiving medals for their runner-up position in 2012, but that does not happen anywhere else in Europe (major leagues only mind you).
I admit i did not pay attention to the dates of the edits, only that the article had been ridiculously vandalized. Yes, one year without vandalism is neat, but it would be even neater with bugger all. Why won't they let the others work in peace?
Attentively --AL (talk) 01:53, 4 June 2014 (UTC)
- I repeat (per your York reference, by the way saw they did not go through in spite of a 0-0 away draw, better luck next year), in England i'll have to agree it's an honour, not in Portugal/Spain/Germany/France/Italy. Again, lest there are any confusions, unless you're division champions, then of course that's an honour.

Page deletion / User warning
Matty, please re-delete Alberto Manuel Domínguez Rivas, it has been recreated even though i provided several sources showing that it was Daniel Aranzubia that played in the game this player supposedly "appeared" in La Liga. It is SOCCERWAY.com that has him wrongly appearing in a league game with Deportivo de La Coruña, but ALL newspapers plus BDFUTBOL.com say it's Aranzubia! Thus, Mr. Rivas has only appeared in Segunda División B so far.
Also, please warn User:Lglukgl about his WP:COMPETENCE issues, he has a level ZERO of English and he continues to violate WP guidelines (like this one, creating a 100% non-notable player), myself and User:MYS77 have discussed things with him to the bone, don't know what on earth is the matter with this person!

Please mediate in this, or ask another football-related admin to do so (i don't want to burden your schedule, wiki or not), the relation/conflict between User:MYS77 and User:Lglukgl (of which i was a part of for some months) has gone ape, due to the latter's complete inability to grasp the flimsiest WP guideline.

PLEASE mediate here, User:Ovinod has been removing all international career sumups in Portuguese footballers' intro, because he say it's repetitive and it's already in storyline proper. Please message him and tell him how we operate here (he does seem to know how a intro is supposed to be outlined), we are engaged in a harsh edit war.
Attentively --AL (talk) 19:25, 26 June 2014 (UTC)
- Regards this matter, AL, has mentioned in the past, respect other people's hard work. He doesn't seem to understand there's always room for improvement and repetitiveness among virtually every Portuguese national football team player is pure lack of originality. I believe he's more worried about the fact he started those intros in all the player's page and is resilient to have it removed or improved because he considers it hard work.
--Ovinod (talk) 19:30, 26 June 2014 (UTC)
- Thanks for your prompt answer. I don't disagree with the fact that a player's international career is an important part of his career and that it should be given coverage in the lead. In this specific case, you have over 15 players of the Portuguese national football team with virtually the same intro regarding their international play and a user (User:Always Learning) who believes his hard work should be kept where it's been. He will try to revert any user's reverts to his edits just because he believes it's correct English and should stay as it is. I just don't think he's open minded enough to changes that will happen regardless if done by me or any other user in the future.
--Ovinod (talk) 20:54, 26 June 2014 (UTC)

I have understood how intros should work and agreed to Matty's response on my talk page, but not the fact that every player's intro are virtually the same. How does that make WP an efficient source of information if every page seems as if it was copied and pasted and considered hard work by whoever entered the information?
--Ovinod (talk) 22:52, 26 June 2014 (UTC)
- OK i've cooled down, will hang on until the stipulated date, and the tone of the warring between us two has now subsided, but did not understand his reverting me again after you told him international career sumup belonged in the intro, screw this it stays out of intro! Per your suggestion, have brought forth a discussion at WP:FOOTY, but guess what, even if the outcome of it is as expected (99,999999999999% of the users saying "International career belongs in the lead"), i won't reinstate the intros again, sick and tired as can be (i also noticed he belittled my use of the words "hard work" in his reply to you, i never said or implied i work harder than anybody, just i work hard)!

Gut-wrenching feeling have i... Followed your suggestion, filed a report about a technicality, and not a single user had the decency to drop a single line (literally, "International careers should go in the lead, definitely" only occupies a line), why this keeps occurring i have no idea, maybe my reputation (offensive summaries, not following guidelines, etc) precedes me i don't know.
Only Ovinod wrote something there, again offering his "I have seen those intros in DIFFERENT players, it's repetitive" argument, of course he's not going to allow me to reinsert the proper intros, and why should i bother when i have only one fortnight left here? It stays out.
P.S. Note Matty, i am not lashing out at you my wikifriend, you were bright/kind enough to offer the suggestion, i am referring to those (many) users that choose to ignore me and my reports seemingly just because (maybe it's just me and my imagination, man i definitely need a "breather"). --AL (talk) 16:13, 27 June 2014 (UTC)
- I wrote it like that because: 1 - Portugal has not won anything at international level (but in some cases i have mentioned the second place at UEFA Euro 2004, not the case of any of the players of the new generation) 2 - just inserted the facts plain and simple (how many caps if relevant, how many WC and EC did the given player compete in), without POV. Would embellishing it make it better? I don't think so, but please (you or any other concerned editor) ask Ovinod to do that, i stay put (i'm not throwing a tantrum here, but why should i insert it - with rewording or not - if he'll remove it?).
Keep it up --AL (talk) 16:57, 27 June 2014 (UTC)
- Just thought of this: i'm going to ask Ovinod for alternatives, let's see what wonders will i be suggested... --AL (talk) 16:58, 27 June 2014 (UTC)
