[edit] Charlton Athletic F.C.

Hi, I'll be reviewing the article on Charlton Athletic F.C. for GA criteria. Pass, hold or fail, I'll add my comments to the talk page and let you know the result. Feel free to get in touch with me about this review at any time. All the best. The Rambling Man 18:28, 11 July 2007 (UTC)

I've placed the GA review on hold pending the resolution of a number of comments on the talk page. Feel free to get in touch if any of the points need clarification. The Rambling Man 07:35, 12 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Scout Association

Good work with your clean up of this article. Are you a member of Wikipedia:WikiProject Scouting? --Bduke 12:59, 13 August 2007 (UTC)

not yet, I am considering joing though--Mas 18 dl 15:34, 13 August 2007 (UTC)

Congratulations on getting this to GA status. Well done indeed. I have however reverted your last edit as I am fairly sure that fair use can not justify having the section logos on this article but only on the article to which they directly refer. It would be nice if I am wrong, but I do not think I am. --Bduke 13:43, 21 August 2007 (UTC)

ok then, your judgement is probably better than mine--Mas 18 dl 13:54, 21 August 2007 (UTC)

Cheers. Looked on that article but missed it.. Mattythewhite 15:40, 13 August 2007 (UTC)
no problem--Mas 18 dl 15:50, 13 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Neil Warnock

He has been confirmed as Palace manager and the source has been quoted. If you keep reverting the article it will be considered vandalism and you will be banned. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.158.139.99 (talk) 14:32, 11 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks

Cheers for adding Sven to the England managers template. Purely an oversight on my part that he got lost when I implemented the new template. --Jameboy 11:09, 16 October 2007 (UTC)

No problem--Mas 18 dl 11:58, 16 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Chief scouts

Good work. Now we have them all. Isn't there some controversy about Michael J. H. Walsh that should be mentioned? Take a look at my talk page where there is a long discussion about the succession box for Chief scouts - mostly by others while I slept. --Bduke (talk) 21:52, 7 December 2007 (UTC)

I don't know about any controversy about Walsh, I only used an 'official' source for those two articles so I guess it wouldn't cover things like that.--Mas 18 dl (talk) 10:49, 8 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Lee Mason

Hi. The information you re-shaped, which basic outline was added by another editor in error, has been removed. This is because the match in which it occurred is non-notable to the subject of the article, namely Lee Mason the referee. Cup Finals, play-offs, and the like, are notable to him because it shows progression in his own notability. Moreover, Wikipedia is not a complaints desk, and the source you provided shows only what the managers thought of the referee's display, not the balanced view expected from perhaps a commentator, or commentators; in other words, those further removed from the possibility of biased opinion, such as in definite statements by BBC News or Sport confirming some kind of overwhelming controversy, or from other reputable organisations (reliable sources, as required in our guidelines). The fact that BBC Sport provided the source in an article in which the managers 'sounded off' is not in itself a mark of neutrality. Thanks. Ref (chew)(do) 11:22, 18 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Precedents?

Hi. Please state the precedents you refer to in your recent edit summary at Greg Halford. It is my understanding that WikiProject Football, especially biographies, works in terms of the club holding the player's registration being the current club (e.g. David Martot, on loan at Brighton is still owned by his French club, Le Havre AC, and the infobox shows it that way). An early reply would be appreciated. Thanks. Ref (chew)(do) 17:05, 31 January 2008 (UTC)

Most infoboxes state both the club the player is owned by and the club they are on loan at. The example you provided is the only I've seen designed that way.--Mas 18 dl (talk) 17:25, 31 January 2008 (UTC)
Well, have a look at these: Adam Johnson (footballer), Joe Anyinsah, Michael Johnson (footballer born 1973), Simon Gillett, Graham Kavanagh, Romain Larrieu, Russell Saunders, plus many, many more at List of English football transfers Winter 2007-08 - check them out.
Meanwhile, I'll be asking about this officially at WikiProject Football/Players, which is the correct procedure - "loan arrangements" are not "transfers". Transfers refer to change of ownership of contract, not a physical playing move. The club holding the registration is the only official "Current club" where national/international football associations are concerned, and with Wikipedia's ethos of true representation in biographies a major concern, the biographical player articles in the encyclopedia need to reflect that.
I'll let you know how I get on, but if I'm proved right, I would expect you to let me make the change back in Greg Halford. Thanks. Ref (chew)(do) 21:17, 31 January 2008 (UTC)
Hi, again. You can follow the debate here. For my part, it looks as though there is enough immediate opposition to my point of view that I will be leaving well enough alone this time. Thanks. Ref (chew)(do) 21:21, 1 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Owen Hargreaves infobox

Just wanted to say thank you for fixing that mistake. I likely wouldn't have seen it. ;) crassic![talk] 16:48, 13 April 2008 (UTC)

No problem. Mas 18 dl (talk) 17:18, 13 April 2008 (UTC)
