Does anybody else think we should maybe have a little more information here? I do my best but I don't know an awful lot of history about the club as i'm only 20years old! Perhaps something about the ongoing dispute about what league we should play in (given the ongoing whinging from scottish clubs about them not being allowed to join the english system) Any suggestions? -- Murfilicious 14:23, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
I agree, there should certainly be more information on the 2nd placed finish in the old (old) first division, as I believe it was one of the closest title finishes ever.

Are these self-given names or inappropriate nicknames from rivals, and if the latter, do they really have a place in Wikipedia?

I recently posted some information about rivalry between Cardiff City and Swansea City supporters. Could someone please read over it and make sure this is suitable for Wikipedia. The part about Lee Trundle brandishing a flag with anti-cardiff city remarks on it could possibly be offensive ("FUCK OFF CARDIFF") so perhaps an administrater could check what ive wrote just to make sure.

Tidied it up to remove typos. The examples given, used to support Cardiff's case - is it possible to further expand and clarify the situation? As far as I can tell, Monaco, for example, can play as French representative as which there is a Monaco FA, there isn't a domestic league - same situation for Lichtenstein. Cardiff's situation is completely different as we do have a league. Any other thoughts? Minkythecat ( talk) 07:32, 12 March 2008 (UTC)
Next season the club will be reverting to the previous badge that was used before Sam Hammam changed it to what it is at the moment. Just thought it would be a good idea for us to try and find a free image of the badge in preparation for the next season. If we place it in the article until it is in use then swap the pictures around when the time comes. Thanks. Kosack ( talk) 11:22, 16 April 2008 (UTC)
I would like to suggest that a sub-section in the article contains a fuller detail of Cardiff City's European games. There is very little mention in the article of matches such as the Semi-Final of the Cup Winners Cup, and the tie against Real Madrid. It also is a nice link as currently there appears to be just nothing in the article that happened between 1930 & 1985.
I believe there should also be a sub-section on this year's cup run. This season will go down as one of the most important in the history of the club.
One final point regarding Notable Fans, I believe Craig Bellamy should be included. There are many news references to him over various points in time that he infrequently trains with the CCFC First Team Squad ( when returning from injury or an international coming up), and whenever he is unable to play he is usually spotted going into the ground at Cardiff City home games. 86.133.28.192 ( talk) 14:19, 10 May 2008 (UTC)

The manager listing is wrong, because it has been drawn from Soccerbase, whose database has a problem - for example, Phil Neal is listed here as only being manager for two days (and had no games played under his stewardship), when he was in charge for quite a bit longer! Is there a way of amending this while retaining the Played, Won, Drew, Lost stats? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.183.151.38 ( talk) 03:17, 21 January 2009 (UTC)

Aaron Wildig was born in England and is apparently not an International for any country. He has a Welsh emblem next to his name on the Cardiff squad. What is the reason for this? If none is forethcoming then I will change his emblem to English. RicoRichmond ( talk) 23:41, 20 August 2009 (UTC)
Does anyone have any objections to the removal of at least the 100 appearances and other sections? Both sections contain just a handful of players who have achieved either 100 appearances or gained an international cap at the club and the information is already covered in the List of Cardiff City F.C. players and List of Cardiff City F.C. internationals. Not to mention that the presence of the sections leads to large numbers of IP users adding players who they think are notable. Kosack ( talk) 19:32, 6 January 2010 (UTC)

A discussion is being held here on the possibility of rolling out a new squad template. The new template, named {{ football squad player2}}, differs from the standard squad layout in several ways:
It is proposed that the new template be added to some of Wikipedia's most high-profile club articles, which might include Cardiff City F.C.. To give your thoughts, please read and contribute to the discussion at WikiProject Football.

Hello, I just made a small change to the away colours section where it stated that Cardiff wore the St David flag strip during the 99-00 season. I believe it was actually the 2003-04 season, as Cardiff were still sponsored by Modplan back in 99 and I think the away shirt was yellow.

Because It's now Considered as a "Good Article" Why not add the Semi-Protection Edit Permissions
Considering the nature of the news, and devastating revelation that police have called of the search, I understand people are very keen to get edits in regarding him. However, out of respect for the club, the fans, the player and his family, I don't think we should make any quick decisions regarding removing him as a player, or making rash edits on his Wikipedia article, until the necessary parties have released official statements. I'm not going to request protecting the article but maybe putting a header explaining that this article is affected by a recent event may be the right move?

Third colours not use on the website. Can it be removed from the template? 95.24.222.212 ( talk) 11:24, 14 October 2020 (UTC)
Hi all just a query about these lines in the history section:
The club experienced increasing financial difficulties over the next few years and plans for a new stadium failed to gain approval from Cardiff Council because of concerns over financial security in 2006. Hammam then agreed to a takeover by a consortium led by new chairman Peter Ridsdale and the lead developer of the new stadium, Paul Guy.
The first sentence says the plans were rejected, but then the next talks about the new stadium having a lead developer; and as we know, the stadium was eventually built. Perhaps there's something missing here? I'm curious how this topic should be dealt with, as the outline history of the statium probably belongs in the history section, but there's also a dedicated section for stadia, and I'm looking to write similar prose in the Coventry City F.C. article... Pinging Kosack in case you have any thoughts, although note that you've not been around too much lately... Cheers — Amakuru ( talk) 13:43, 2 April 2023 (UTC)

Tidied it up to remove typos. The examples given, used to support Cardiff's case - is it possible to further expand and clarify the situation? As far as I can tell, Monaco, for example, can play as French representative as which there is a Monaco FA, there isn't a domestic league - same situation for Lichtenstein. Cardiff's situation is completely different as we do have a league. Any other thoughts? Minkythecat ( talk) 07:32, 12 March 2008 (UTC)
Next season the club will be reverting to the previous badge that was used before Sam Hammam changed it to what it is at the moment. Just thought it would be a good idea for us to try and find a free image of the badge in preparation for the next season. If we place it in the article until it is in use then swap the pictures around when the time comes. Thanks. Kosack ( talk) 11:22, 16 April 2008 (UTC)
I would like to suggest that a sub-section in the article contains a fuller detail of Cardiff City's European games. There is very little mention in the article of matches such as the Semi-Final of the Cup Winners Cup, and the tie against Real Madrid. It also is a nice link as currently there appears to be just nothing in the article that happened between 1930 & 1985.
I believe there should also be a sub-section on this year's cup run. This season will go down as one of the most important in the history of the club.
One final point regarding Notable Fans, I believe Craig Bellamy should be included. There are many news references to him over various points in time that he infrequently trains with the CCFC First Team Squad ( when returning from injury or an international coming up), and whenever he is unable to play he is usually spotted going into the ground at Cardiff City home games. 86.133.28.192 ( talk) 14:19, 10 May 2008 (UTC)
I think that this section needs sorting out. I recently corrected some of it, but I think the entire layout is just too bad. It needs to be more smart; sorted out more.

The section mentioning the debt is unclear. First it states that the club was £40 million in debt, most of which has been cleared. A few lines later it mentions that the club is £30 million in debt (which is denied). Can this be cleared up? Greenman ( talk) 09:11, 19 May 2008 (UTC)

Can anyone explain why in 1920, Cardiff City were able to join the Football League Division Two, whereas the rest of the Southern Football League, including three clubs placed higher in the 1919-20 league table, joined the new Football League Division Three? -- Daemonic Kangaroo ( talk) 04:15, 1 July 2008 (UTC)
The manager listing is wrong, because it has been drawn from Soccerbase, whose database has a problem - for example, Phil Neal is listed here as only being manager for two days (and had no games played under his stewardship), when he was in charge for quite a bit longer!

Aaron Wildig was born in England and is apparently not an International for any country. He has a Welsh emblem next to his name on the Cardiff squad. What is the reason for this? If none is forethcoming then I will change his emblem to English. RicoRichmond ( talk) 23:41, 20 August 2009 (UTC)
Does anyone have any objections to the removal of at least the 100 appearances and other sections? Both sections contain just a handful of players who have achieved either 100 appearances or gained an international cap at the club and the information is already covered in the List of Cardiff City F.C. players and List of Cardiff City F.C. internationals. Not to mention that the presence of the sections leads to large numbers of IP users adding players who they think are notable. Kosack ( talk) 19:32, 6 January 2010 (UTC)

A discussion is being held here on the possibility of rolling out a new squad template. The new template, named {{ football squad player2}}, differs from the standard squad layout in several ways:
It is proposed that the new template be added to some of Wikipedia's most high-profile club articles, which might include Cardiff City F.C.. To give your thoughts, please read and contribute to the discussion at WikiProject Football.

Hello, I just made a small change to the away colours section where it stated that Cardiff wore the St David flag strip during the 99-00 season. I believe it was actually the 2003-04 season, as Cardiff were still sponsored by Modplan back in 99 and I think the away shirt was yellow.

Because It's now Considered as a "Good Article" Why not add the Semi-Protection Edit Permissions
Considering the nature of the news, and devastating revelation that police have called of the search, I understand people are very keen to get edits in regarding him. However, out of respect for the club, the fans, the player and his family, I don't think we should make any quick decisions regarding removing him as a player, or making rash edits on his Wikipedia article, until the necessary parties have released official statements. I'm not going to request protecting the article but maybe putting a header explaining that this article is affected by a recent event may be the right move?

Hi all just a query about these lines in the history section:
The club experienced increasing financial difficulties over the next few years and plans for a new stadium failed to gain approval from Cardiff Council because of concerns over financial security in 2006. Hammam then agreed to a takeover by a consortium led by new chairman Peter Ridsdale and the lead developer of the new stadium, Paul Guy.
The first sentence says the plans were rejected, but then the next talks about the new stadium having a lead developer; and as we know, the stadium was eventually built. Perhaps there's something missing here? I'm curious how this topic should be dealt with, as the outline history of the statium probably belongs in the history section, but there's also a dedicated section for stadia, and I'm looking to write similar prose in the Coventry City F.C. article... Pinging Kosack in case you have any thoughts, although note that you've not been around too much lately... Cheers — Amakuru ( talk) 13:43, 2 April 2023 (UTC)
