[edit] Results template

Why though? This format looks absolutley awful, the boxes are no where close to being equal lengths and it scrolls off of the screen on 1024x768 resolution monitors, I really hope you decide to change this formatting. --shanda 11:27, 2 September 2006 (UTC)

Here are two screenshots, one of the Serie A table and the other of the Bundesliga results table [1] [2] and in my opinion the Bundesliga table looks better, although the Serie A table is easier to understand since the full team names are shown in the away team column. What is your opinion? --shanda 11:52, 2 September 2006 (UTC)

I am using Mozilla Firefox, but I checked how it looked in Internet Explorer and it looks just like your screenshot, so I am guessing Mozilla doesn't support vertical text, I have the latest version so their isn't a problem there. Looking like that it definately looks better. No way to support Firefow browsers then I guess? --shanda 12:17, 2 September 2006 (UTC)

I know what you mean, I have had difficulties with .PNG's showing transparencies in IE where as they work fine in Mozilla without needing to adjust the stteings of the .PNG file. I guess then again since Firefox is still only a browser that a small majority of Internet users use then IE's functionality should take precendent. --shanda 12:42, 2 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Serie A

I added the context template because it is impossible to know what this page is for based on the text currently included. I understand it is a subpage, but you can't count on somebody visiting it only through the main page. What I would suggest is a single sentence that explains what the user is looking at (which, as I understand it, is a football schedule). Erechtheus 18:43, 16 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Wikipedia:WikiProject Football Transfers

I welcome the idea of having such a discussion. However, one a purely pragmatic level, I suggest that you add a membership section to the project page. Any project with no listed members is technically eligible for deletion. Also, you might want to look at the Wikipedia:WikiProject Council/Guide for help in formatting the project and the page. Thank you for your attention. Badbilltucker 15:08, 28 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Superliga results

You posted this at my talk page:

Just to say that the results table you replaced on the Superliga page looks perfect using every browser except Firefox. Its only on firefox that the names along the top are shown horizontally instead of Vertically. Table itself is perfect and prob looks better than the one you are using at present. Niall123 20:58, 6 October 2006 (UTC)

But I can't really understand what you mean. Are you talking about Portuguese Liga, or 2006-07 in Portuguese football? Also, I use Firefox but as I read this comment and tried it on IE and it (results table on 2006-07 article) looks the same on both, with the names on the top horizontally. I don't know how to do it vertically. Also, I didn't understand this: Table itself is perfect and prob looks better than the one you are using at present. -- What do you mean? I like the table as it is on the 2006-07 article now, I was the one who put it, the one that was there before was too large and not very good-looking or user-friendly, because you had to move the window to the right to see some of the results. Now it looks much better, for me. Explain better what you mean. Sorry :-) --Serte 23:13, 6 October 2006 (UTC)

Hm, now I see what you mean, but... I don't know, in IE your looks a lot better, but in Firefox it really looks awful and the one that is there looks ok in both. Maybe it should stay, more and more people are using Firefox these days... I don't know, if the problem could be solved so that Firefox users can also see it as well... I don't know... --Serte 23:28, 6 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Wikipedia:Italian Football

I appreciate your invitation, this is a very good idea for a project. I will be happy to contribute the best way I can. Please let me know what you think of my suggestion to dedicate a page to Serie A records, which I posted in Talk:Serie A. Thanks again. --ChaChaFut 18:50, 7 October 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for the heads up... I'll join for sure. - Deathrocker 20:38, 7 October 2006 (UTC)

OK, I'm going to try and help as much as I can, but not right now, because I am currently taking a short break from Wikipedia, but you can count on me in the next few weeks or so. --- Tha Eastsydah 00:04, 7 October 2006 (UTC)

Hello Niall. For player template can use Template:Infobox Football biography same other players. Thanks again --- Piniricc65 10:16, 8 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Re: Serie Results Templates

All give a hand for other seasons. :) CapPixel 10:12, 8 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Re: Serie A maps

Adding name is a good idea. Well done! Just one point: the northern border of the italy maps seem to have some problems... siamax 01:27, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Sergio Cervato

I added a colour career statistic table in page Sergio Cervato. What do you think? Piniricc65 10:53, 10 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] G14

I'm sorry, then, I've already made two edits, but I'll leave you to your work. Thanks for telling me and keep up the good work. Sorry for any trouble or inconvenience. Cheers--Serte 23:38, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Template Serie A

OK, I'll try. CapPixel 09:31, 15 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] AC Milan - notable players

Don't you think that some of the players you added made too few appearances with AC Milan to be considered as notable players? Ayala, Blomqvist, Bogarde, Davids, Dugarry, Greaves, Kluivert, Laudrup, Lehman, Reiziger, Viera, Ziege: I think none of them played more than 15/20 games with the Rossoneri. How about removing them? – Luxic 19:03, 15 October 2006 (UTC)

Actually, as you said, the matter is the definiton of "notable players". In my opinion, it would be better to list only players who are notable for what they achieved with that team, especially if the team at issue is a major team. Otherwise the list may become really long, and players that made history with that team would be mixed with others that played only a few games and are famous for having played somewhere else. – Luxic 20:24, 15 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Serie A historical tables and results

Thanks! :) I'll go on with this as long as I've got time. CapPixel 06:42, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Football templates

I've noticed you've been updating the colours on various English football league templates. You will probably find User:Tompw/leaguetemplates and/or User:Tompw/allclubs useful for making sure you done them all :-). (I should really resume work on non-League football stuff...). Tompw 23:20, 18 October 2006 (UTC)

Wow, that was quick! Thanks for updating the colours on all. Yes, it does go down a lot lower than than Italian leagues, primarily because this the English-language wikipedia, and hence more inetrest in local English leagues than local Italian ones. Also, I don't think its worth applying {{Tnavbar-header}} to them, as they already have an edit link. To be honest, I'm not very much in favour of collapsable templaes.... personally feel it would be much better if WP had an option under "my preferences" so that they all displayed collapsed/uncollapsed, according to persional taste. Tompw 13:47, 19 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Edit summaries

Is there any chance of you please using edit summaries when editing pages? It makes it a lot easier for other editors to see what has been done to a page without always having to check the history of each edit. - fchd 19:26, 19 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Hi

Is that Niallquinnsdiscopants? πίππύ δ'Ω∑ - (waarom? jus'b'coz!) 07:57, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] AC Milan

Uh, it will take a lot of time...my principal activity by now is to revert vandalism (I'm too busy with university) but sure I can contribute! I would be really pleasured! --necronudist 18:36, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] A.C. Milan template

I slightly modified it, on the basis of other club templates (such as Liverpool and Chelsea). I removed AC Milan ladies, becuase, although ACF Milan does exist, it has nothing to do with AC Milan. I also added Milan Channel; if I have time, I'll write something about it. – Luxic 12:00, 21 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Coppa Italia template

Hi, I've seen you've made a template for the Coppa Italia. I don't see any usefulness in it, as the template set for Italian Serie A clubs is becoming actually too much invasive, and in addition half of the 2006/07 Italian Cup teams have been eliminated in early August. I ask you to consider different ways to refer to possible Italian Cup season, rather than the template mash Wikipedia is quickly becoming. --Angelo 19:25, 26 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Serie A Template

My intention was to create a single page for every season, like 1929-30 in English football, beacuse those pages would have fit better in "Category:Football (soccer) by year", but I understand... I will join soon your progect ;) Speirdyke 15:58, 29 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Serie A results

You've always done a great job, so I make myself useful by adding fixtures to article so that you can insert the results more quickly. Let's keep it up! – Luxic 20:22, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Bundesliga

Thanks. I'll try in the next few weeks. Kingjeff 14:21, 11 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Re: La Liga Results

I think is a good Idea I'll start editing at soon as i can thanks for the tip..

[edit] Please avoid links to disambiguation pages

I noted that you have added several biographies of Italian football players, where Italian was a link to Italian, which is a disambiguation page. These links should be avoided, rather linking to the specific meaning which is intended. In the case of biographies, the manual of style recommends specifying the nationality of the person, so for Italians the link should point to Italy ([[Italy|Italian]]). I have updated that for the existing biographies. WolfgangFaber 01:16, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] AC Milan Season 2006

Good job with the 06-07 stats. Keep it up!

[edit] {{fb start}} etc.

Hi there - no worry about the template stuff - I'd been meaning to do it myself. All I did was correct a slip you'd made with the Man U page. And it was good - it inspired me to re-work {{Arsenal F.C.}} to use it as well! So all good really. Qwghlm 23:53, 3 December 2006 (UTC)
