[edit] A. Stair

I've added the "{{prod}}" template to the article A. Stair, 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). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, or, if you disagree with the notice, discuss the issues at Talk:A. Stair. You may remove the deletion notice, and the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached, or if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria.

[edit] Notability of Rudi Glöckner

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Rudi Glöckner, by Davmid055 (talk · contribs), another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Rudi Glöckner seems to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Rudi Glöckner, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Please note, this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion, it did not nominate Rudi Glöckner itself. Feel free to leave a message on the bot operator's talk page if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot. --Android Mouse Bot 2 02:37, 22 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Argentina and England football rivalry

Hi, seen your posts and I was wondering if you can tell me the original spanish translation of what Onega said with They're kicking the shit out of us. Thks Jor70 20:36, 28 June 2007 (UTC)

Thank Steve for your post. Could you kindly post yours thoughts Here ? so we can discuss it with the others too. Thanks a lot (ps. Please next time write in a talk page not in the user front page :-) Jor70 11:33, 30 June 2007 (UTC)
Further to your comments on Jor70s page, I did not remove your edits, they are still there, just "hidden", because they were added unsourced. The article needs more content added, but it needs to be sourced especially as it is an article that can have two very different points of view. Also, your recent edits adding about Alf Ramsey, using another wikipedia article as a source is unfortunately not acceptable on wikipedia as a reliable source. However, your edit added something attributed to being said by Alf Ramsey ("a team who come to play football, and not act as animals") which when clicking on the source you provided - his wikipedia article - it actually states that he was misquoted. Reliable sources are external sites and not wikipedia. Thanks and have fun. ♦Tangerines BFC ♦·Talk 16:27, 30 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Talk pages

Hi, there. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. On many keyboards, the tilde is entered by holding the Shift key, and pressing the key with the tilde pictured. You may also click on the signature button Image:Wikisigbutton.png located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you! ♦Tangerines BFC ♦·Talk 00:59, 4 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] IFAB

There have been some edits corrupting the info about the formation of the IFAB. I notice you asked for a citation some time ago. It originally said 1882 Manchester, and then someone changed it to 1886 and this was called into question and then a meeting in Holborn for 1886 replaced the Manchester meeting. However from [1] we have In 1882, the Football Association, firm in its resolve there should be uniformity in the laws, invited the associations of Scotland, Wales and Ireland to a meeting to discuss the formation of a board to settle their differences and to organize an international championship. Scotland at first declined the invitation, relenting only after the Football Association threatened to end the yearly international matches. At the meeting, held in Manchester on December 6, 1882, the four associations adopted a uniform code and established the International Football Association Board to approve changes in the laws. Each association was given equal voting rights on the board. Jooler 12:08, 26 September 2007 (UTC)

However the minutes of the first meeting in 1886 can be found here -http://ssbra.org/html/laws/IFABarc/pdf/1886/18861ST.pdf Jooler 12:28, 26 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] 1920 Olympic football final

Not quite sure where you got the information from regarding Charles Wreford-Brown being the linesman in the 1920 Olympic final. Can you please state your source?

Most interested to find out. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Steve bloomer (talkcontribs) 17:16, 28 December 2007 (UTC)

Hi Steve, I'm afraid I've no real interest in football, Olympic or otherwise, and I didn't add that information anywhere. What article do you have in mind? My bot probably did some spelling corrections on it. Cheers, CmdrObot (talk) 18:35, 28 December 2007 (UTC)
