Apps and goals updates

Hi there

When you make edits like this one, please could you ensure that also update the "as of....." date above the table?

Thanks! -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 14:13, 28 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Just a quick reminder, as per the above - please can you always ensure that when you update players' stats, you also update the timestamp? Ta! -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 18:34, 19 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification for April 22

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited 2018–19 Sheffield United F.C. season, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Mark Duffy (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 12:32, 22 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

May 2019

Please do not add or change content, as you did at Paul Coutts, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Mattythewhite (talk) 18:54, 8 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Infobox timestamps

Hello, I'm Mattythewhite. Welcome to Wikipedia! I just wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions were not quite right. When updating statistics within the infobox of a footballer, please make sure you update the timestamp at the same time, so that both readers and fellow editors know when the information was last updated.

You can do this by replacing the existing timestamp within the |club-update= or |pcupdate= parameter for club stats, or the |nationalteam-update= or |ntupdate= parameter for international stats. For articles that use a DMY date format, use five tildes (~~~~~), or for MDY dates, use {{subst:mdytime}}. This will generate the specific time the update was made.

If you have any questions about this, feel free to leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you, Mattythewhite (talk) 19:59, 24 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

There's the dates above the career stats tables, too. Mattythewhite (talk) 21:51, 26 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

September 2019

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Lys Mousset. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been or will be reverted.

If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, please discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively, you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant notice boards.
If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, please seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive. Continued disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. Per #Infobox timestamps. Mattythewhite (talk) 14:48, 2 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
