[edit] Vice-captain (football)
Please see Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Football#Captaincy in football for the discussion pertaining to the above article. I agree with User:Angelo.romano that Vice-captain (football) adds very little in terms of content to Captain (football) and that the two pages should be merged, with Vice-captain (football) becoming a redirect to Captain (football). If you have any further comments, please restrict them to the discussion at WP:FOOTY. – PeeJay 19:23, 16 December 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Man City redirect
Hey there, I saw your note on Oldepaso's page and I have deleted the redirect for you. You can alert administrators by using one of the tags located at WP:CSD. Once a tag has been added to the page, an administrator will come along and delete them for you (if appropriate) Thanks for alerting people. Woody (talk) 00:17, 17 December 2007 (UTC)
- As you can see Woody beat me by a full 18 hours. {{db-attack}} would have been the tag for that particular case. Thanks for fixing the hidden Castillo comment, which in my haste I somehow managed to give completely the wrong meaning. Oldelpaso (talk) 18:32, 17 December 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Your rollback request
Hi! I regret that I must inform you that your request for the rollback permission has been denied. You can discover why by checking the archives at Wikipedia:Requests for rollback/Denied/January 2008#Pbradbury. RFRBot (talk) 11:00, 10 January 2008 (UTC)
- I have granted this - only use it to revert obvious vandalism.--Doc g - ask me for rollback 21:26, 11 January 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Nery Castillo
I noticed you put Castillo up as a good article nomination. Most of the article is solid enough, but as it is right now it will probably not pass, due to much of the Olympiacos section being unreferenced and the short lead section. However, your improvements have been good, and the length of the queue for good article reviews means there should be plenty of time to work on it. I'd be more than happy to help, but as this one is "your" nomination I wouldn't want to tread on your toes or anything. If you want any help, whether in direct contributions or a peer review type run through the article giving notes and advice, don't hesitate to ask. Oldelpaso (talk) 21:43, 14 January 2008 (UTC)
- I'll have a proper run through it tomorrow. Oldelpaso (talk) 22:05, 14 January 2008 (UTC)
- Comments left on the talk page, I'll try to do a bit of editing over the next few days. In terms of aims and inspiration, Gilberto Silva is by my reckoning Wikipedia's most comprehensive football biography, and a few other past and present City players are current good articles.

Rhodesia: As you can see in the category of the country Rhodesia, it exsisted until 1979. Benjani was born in 1978. Therefore his correct place of birth is Rhodesia, not Zimbabwe —Preceding unsigned comment added by Maracana (talk • contribs) 22:39, 31 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] User:Maracana
Hey, that guy is an idiot. He also changes everything to USSR, while the Union consisted of 15 diffrent republics. He needs a wiki-editing detention.
