He was wearing a number 23 shirt in the Guangzhou match, looks like richardson's number is gone already.
Hi Peejay, With the greatest of respect it is not me that is being unconstructive. I have spent some time improving the Darron Gibson article while you have just come along and made minor adjustments that add nothing. All I am interested in doing is making better articles but it is this sort of pedantic enforcement of MoS that ruins Wiki.
Shouldn't the top bit say Northern Irish instead of just Irish? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.6.236.20 ( talk) 11:39, 25 May 2009 (UTC)
I would agree that it should state Northern Irish as he is from Northern Ireland. No harm is stating facts. Factocop ( talk) 15:12, 13 September 2010 (UTC)
Northern Irish is not a nationality but it is an adjective that describes his origin so I don't see the harm in using it. A lot of people do refer to themselves as Northern Irish, myself included so please do not dismiss it just because you don't agree with it. Factocop ( talk) 15:25, 13 September 2010 (UTC)
Kevin, you are wasting your time here. This page is run by a nationalist clique. O fenian does not think that Irish is contentious in relation to Darron Gibson so please assume that he is ill informed. I suggest that we just say that 'he is a footballer who represents ROI'. But that will not be enough unfortunately. Any photos of Darron Gibson draped in a tri-colour and shaking Gerry Adams hand though would be very welcome and apparently by general consensus would be pc aswell. word of advice don't mention Londonderry. not in these parts. Factocop ( talk) 09:11, 15 September 2010 (UTC)
Kevin, I've made no assumptions on your part, i've just made an observation. I was blocked for making an edit to page that seemed to have an unbalanced view. I'm guilty! Factocop ( talk) 11:54, 15 September 2010 (UTC)
For the record, in terms of nationality, the only thing relevant should be what reliable sources say (except where they self-describe). We should be looking for what preference they have Wikipedia:Nationality_of_people_from_the_United_Kingdom. From Northern_Irish#Citizenship and identity, for catholics Irish should be the preferred option. IRWolfie- ( talk) 20:50, 21 April 2012 (UTC)
As a compromise, we could put 'British' as that's factual, given that he's from Northern Ireland which is part of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.157.42.125 ( talk) 13:39, 30 October 2015 (UTC)
Would someone be so kind as to clarify in the article whether Gibson is center midfield or a winger? I tried to settle a debate on this issue by checking Wikipedia and was surprised to discover that this is not part of the article. 96.39.62.90 ( talk) 19:40, 1 March 2011 (UTC)
http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/2011/apr/25/darron-gibson-quits-twitter-abuse maybe include that too? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.108.86.125 ( talk) 21:43, 4 May 2011 (UTC)
I am moving the international goals table to "career statistics" section . — Preceding unsigned comment added by 93.107.197.22 ( talk) 22:15, 7 September 2011 (UTC)
