I think this page would do well as part of the 2018 FIFA World Cup article we already have. Meşteşugarul - U 01:49, 24 July 2014 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mestesugarul ( talk • contribs)
Hi everyone.
As we approach yet another WC tournament, I believe that now is an appropriate time to revisit some key issues (at least IMHO).
I know that this is not the first conversation about this, but I'm trying to resurrect the List of 1998 and 2002 Fifa World Cup controversies articles (see here).
Those of you who followed the process will remember the 2002 article was the subject of two deletion debates, and then closed down and SALTed. Since I believe that controversial incidents are a window into the development and evolution of the game. I hope as many of you as possible will join me in this effort.

After this edit [1] by 88.207.26.224 I was wondering should there be Semi Protection for the article? Mobile mundo ( talk) 15:40, 15 June 2018 (UTC)
The Robbie Williams flipped the bird is third party news from Fox News, which in many regards is unreliable and stewing the put. Govvy ( talk) 10:40, 18 June 2018 (UTC)
The lifted disqualification of Peru's number 9 Guerrero, should it be mentioned in this article? I do not know any details, but entered this page to find them. :) Fomalhaut76 ( talk) 15:45, 26 June 2018 (UTC)
Several sections of this article are about UK media outlets telling the world the Russians are evil, and being subsequently proven wrong. Rather than being described as controversies of the World Cup, maybe they should be in an article called "Controversies of UK media". They don't belong here. HiLo48 ( talk) 00:15, 27 June 2018 (UTC)
Is the use of cossacks section even necessary? This may belong to an entirely different section since its unclear that the protesters were protesting the FIFA 2018 World Cup rather than protesting against Putin in general. I think it should be removed given it may not be an actual fact about the Cup. Best 173.64.109.152 ( talk) 11:44, 3 July 2018 (UTC)
Nothing about this section reads controversial in my opinion, I guess a lot of people were angry about that situation, but does is really belong on this page? Govvy ( talk) 15:00, 3 July 2018 (UTC)
Is the amount of detail here necessary for what is essentially standard complaints towards a referee from losing teams and a former player who has lost most of his credibility. The heading itself is also problematic. It doesn't fit in with the other controversies presented here. What, if any, of this reaches the level where we should signal this referee out? AIRcorn (talk) 08:12, 7 July 2018 (UTC)
Unless notable instances of hooligan violence actually occurred, this section seems much ado about nothing; furthermore, the bulk of the section is sourced from (as I understand it) a British tabloid newspaper, which doesn't seem a particularly reliable source (especially in light of the general negative pre-WC coverage in British media, as documented elsewhere in the article). It also erroneously links the British diplomatic boycott of the WC to the hooligan threats. I would suggest this section should be removed. 24.206.97.189 ( talk) 05:49, 8 July 2018 (UTC)
I tried a bit, but need to make sure the article is in better order, so all the stuff leading up the the world cup, is in a sensible order, during and after the world cup, but England vs Russia, this stuff seemed all over the place, I tried a bit of tidy, but I think it might need stripping down. The whole article feels very WP:OR. Govvy ( talk) 10:24, 8 July 2018 (UTC)
VAR, a new technology in this World Cup faced quite a lot of criticism, whether it's fair or not, or that what cases can be reviewed with VAR, especially the Griezmann dive and the Perisic handball in the final. I think it deserves a section. Spinosaurus75 (Dinosaur Fan) ( talk) 12:56, 4 December 2018 (UTC)
