[edit] Edit Summary Request

I have noted that you often edit without an edit summary. Please do your best to always fill in the summary field. This is considered an important guideline in Wikipedia. Even a short summary is better than no summary. An edit summary is even more important if you delete any text; otherwise, people may think you're being sneaky or even vandalizing. Also, mentioning one change but not another one can be misleading to someone who finds the other one more important; add "and misc." to cover the other change(s). Thanks! -- Kukini 02:34, 20 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] USMA Players

I didn't intend to change their nationality - I must have copied the Fs template from a Tunisian club and forgot to update it to Algeria. It is correct now. Jogurney 05:44, 2 December 2006 (UTC)
I now understand what I did - on the player articles I copied the infobox from a Tunisian player and forgot to update the NT to Algeria. Sorry about the confusion and thank you for your help. Jogurney 05:48, 2 December 2006 (UTC)
No worries. Welcome to wikipedia - I'm fairly new myself and learning how to edit too. Best regards. Jogurney 05:55, 2 December 2006 (UTC)
There was a ] missing from one of the wikilinks in the infobox. Every wikilink must have 2 at the beginning and 2 at the end. A http link uses only 1 [ and 1 ]. I added the missing ], and it seems to work now. Best regards and keep up the great work. Jogurney 03:50, 3 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Re Abdelhamid Kermali

I saw the article you created on Kermali. Just wanted to point out (as I did in the discussion section of the page you created) that he did not refuse Zidane. That story is a myth and definitely not true. Zidane never tried out for the Algerian team and was never contacted by the team either. I can find you links to confirm this if you want. So please change the info. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by TonyStarks (talk • contribs) 01:46, 6 December 2006 (UTC).

I am not sure whether it is true or false but i have a reference [1]. If you have the reference to the interviews please bring it. Cheers -- Szvest Wiki me up ® 15:35, 7 December 2006 (UTC)

Hi tony. I am interested to know the exact url of this [2]. -- Szvest Wiki me up ® 10:17, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
Here is the entire interview. Just click on the 3 scans of the interview. [3]. TonyStarks 05:14, 12 December 2006 (UTC)
Perfect Tony. I appreciate your coopearation. I'll be removing adding this from to both Zidane and Kermali's article. Cheers -- Szvest Wiki me up ® 12:18, 12 December 2006 (UTC)
Instead of removing it, i add it as a dismissal. Hope this would help readers around the world. -- Szvest Wiki me up ® 12:25, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Player pictures

Hello Tony. I'm not certain, but almost any picture of a living person seems to get removed as a copyright violation. I think the only acceptable ones a "promotional photos" that are released to the media. You might trying asking on the Talk page for Wikipedia:WikiProject Football, since there are people there who will know for sure. Best regards. Jogurney 20:59, 17 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Notability of Karim Soltani

A tag has been placed on Karim Soltani, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article 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 Wikipedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert notability may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is notable, you may contest the tagging. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page (below the existing db tag) and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm its subject's notability under the guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. bd_ 21:08, 11 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Speedy deletion of Billal Ouali

A tag has been placed on Billal Ouali requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. Non-dropframe (talk) 23:29, 23 March 2008 (UTC)
