[edit] Nationality transfers
Maar wat voor Susan de Kleine geldt, geldt voor bijna alle betrokken sporters. Bart Veldkamp, Marnix ten Kortenaar, Jos Lansink, Steffen Wesemann enz. hebben allemaal een dubbele nationaliteit: één van het land waar ze ooit voor uitkwamen, en één van het land waar ze nu voor uitkomen. Misschien is het beter om Wikipedia:WikiProject Sports en haar dochters in te schakelen, om te kijken hoe die denken over:
1. De criteria voor de list of nationality transfers; en
2. De verhouding tussen de nationality transfers en de dual nationality.
Ik heb wel contact gehad met de twee grondleggers van de List of nationality transfers in football, maar ik kreeg van één een halve reactie (niet zo gek, want die criteria zijn ongeveer anderhalf jaar geleden opgesteld, het is logisch dat ze niet precies meer weten hoe en wat), en van de ander nog helemaal niet. AecisBrievenbus 20:09, 1 February 2007 (UTC)
- Naja, dat weet ik dus niet of dat zo is. Ik weet bijvoorbeeld dat als iemand Nederlander wordt, diegene in principe zijn/haar originele nationaliteit verliest. In andere landen daarentegen schijnen ze daar veel minder strict in te zijn en kan het dus zijn dat een nationality transfer ook een dubbele nationaliteit oplevert, terwijl het bij andere inderdaad een transfer is en de originele daarmee dus vervalt. Maar goed, ik heb geen verstand van dit soort zaken en hoe die nu eigenlijk werken, maar had gehoopt dat jij er misschien iets meer over wist. SportsAddicted | discuss 23:15, 1 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Image:Garrinchab&w.jpg
I agree this does not count as a promotional image, but I didn't know much enough about the policies when I uploaded this image. Anyways, this is a deceased historical figure and no free alternative is available, nor can one be created, so I guess this is still a legal fair use image, although the rationale has to be changed. Cheers, SportsAddicted | discuss 22:19, 2 February 2007 (UTC)
- Note that just because someone is dead, it doesn't means we have a legal blanket permission to use any copyrighted picture of this person. Indeed, the fact that someoneis not available for pictures actually increases the value of the existing copyrighted images, and weakens fair use claims. We should be carefull when selecting pictures of deceased ones. Best regards, --Abu badali (talk) 00:46, 3 February 2007 (UTC)
- I understand that, but what makes this picture unable to use to describe the deceased person in question? I can't find a reason why this would not qualify compared to others which do. SportsAddicted | discuss 00:58, 3 February 2007 (UTC)
- The copyrights of this image is what makes it "unable to be used to describe the deceased person in question". The image belong to a company (Corbis) that charges anual fees for individuals who want to use one of its images. Wikipedia content, on the other side, is supposed to be free for anyone to use how many time they please for any reason. ---- —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Abu badali (talk • contribs) 05:44, 3 February 2007 (UTC).
- OK, I don't know Corbis, but from your comment I assume it's somehow the same sort of company as Getty Images is. That's a pity, but in that case we can't indeed do nothing about it. SportsAddicted | discuss 08:34, 3 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Was a race?
was a race? isn't this current?! Ernst Stavro Blofeld 11:46, 6 February 2007 (UTC)
- Sorry what exactly are you talking about? SportsAddicted | discuss 11:50, 6 February 2007 (UTC)
- I see what you're talking about and fixed it. SportsAddicted | discuss 11:57, 6 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Cue sports
Brilliant job on Cue sports at the 2006 Asian Games! NB, you might want to join WikiProject Cue sports - we can certainly use more editors with your attention to detail and thoroughness! — SMcCandlish [talk] [contrib] ツ 19:08, 6 February 2007 (UTC)
- Thanks, but I already have the project on my watchlist, however I'm not too keen on joining project like this as I'm interested in almost all sports and it would be hard to keep up if I would be a contributing member in these groups. I just do my things on Wikipedia and that will also mean that I work on cue sports every now and then :) Cheers, SportsAddicted | discuss 19:23, 6 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] BWF Super Series
SportsAddicted, i know you are the helpful person. Can i ask you to copyedit the BWF Super Series? there is very long, you can work it slowly or reject to do so, is never mind. However, if you willing to help, thanks and appreciated. --Aleenf1 17:47, 7 February 2007 (UTC)
- I will not reject that :) Although my English isn't the best either I will have a look at it and give it my best. Unfortunately not now, but within the next few days :) It depends on my time and schedule, but I promise to have a look at it. SportsAddicted | discuss 01:57, 8 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] calendar of future events
I can't find the page where all the future events are listed... --Nitsansh 10:40, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
- The already stored events can be found at Calendar of current and future sports events/HS, while the others I collect from sites day by day via the sites listed at User:SportsAddicted/NextUp. Anyways, I was a few days away and have to see wether I can keep up with keeping it this detailed. Otherwise we should continue with only the bigger events or so. What do you think?

[edit] AfD nomination of Tour of the Bahamas and 2007 Tour of the Bahamas
An editor has nominated Tour of the Bahamas, an article on which you have worked or that you created, for deletion. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also "What Wikipedia is not"). Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Tour of the Bahamas and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~). You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate. Thank you. Please note: This is an automatic notification by a bot. I have nothing to do with this article or the deletion nomination, and can't do anything about it.

[edit] Barnstar (a bit late, but still...)

The Working Man's Barnstar | |
| I am a bit late, but Onomatopoeia, hereby award you with the Working Man's Barnstar award for all the time and effort you spent bettering the Feyenoord Rotterdam article, especially on January 23, 2007. I hereby want the same for Helmond Sport :D! —Onomatopoeia 12:47, 14 February 2007 (UTC) |
- You're welcome, your award was well-deserved. About Helmond Sport, it was more on a lighter side :D I follow Dutch soccer on NOS, and once talked with my Dutch colleague (Roda JC fan). He joked that losing to Helmond Sport — one of the tiniest clubs in the Netherlands — is seen as one of the worst insults in Dutch professional soccer. Seeing their utterly dreadful results (wikipedia.nl "Maar Helmond Sport komt van ver, want op dit moment staan ze tweede van onder en zal er nog heel wat veranderen moeten."), I have developed a soft spot for HS, just like for your "certified superplayer" Clyde Best. If you don't improve the Helmond Sport article, ok, if you do, even better! :D —Onomatopoeia 09:00, 15 February 2007 (UTC)
- Haha, that's a fun story, good to see things like these happen all over the world even for tiny clubs like Helmond Sport. I'll see what I can do for you :) SportsAddicted | discuss 19:59, 15 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] WikiProject Aviation proposal
There is currently a proposal to create an Aviation WikiProject, which would serve to clarify how all the aviation related projects relate, and help with interproject editing. See Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Aircraft#Proposal_Recap for how the projects hierarchy. Part of the reorganization proposes that, because of its very limited scope, WikiProject Red Bull Air Race World Series become a task force of Wikipedia:WikiProject_Aviation. For an idea of how task forces work, take a look at Wikipedia:WikiProject_Military_history. They have a number of task forces, listed here. As described by them, "task forces are informal groups of editors gathered for collaborative work on a particular topic within the field of military history; all project members are encouraged to participate in any that interest them." The benefit of such a system it that the sub-topics have all the resources of the overall project at their disposal. For instance, the Military history project banner, is placed on every military history page, and the related task forces are listed at the bottom of it. All military history related articles are thereby joined under one roof. I just happened to stumble upon your project, and had until now never realized it existed. By joining forces with another project you will benefit from increased exposure. If you have any ideas or comments, please join the discussion at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Aircraft. - Trevor MacInnis (Contribs) 02:28, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Ali Osram
I have added a "{{prod}}" template to the article Ali Osram, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may contest the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.
