Within an hour of this page being loosened from fully-protected, our friendly local vandal is back, changing Jon McCarthy's nationality. Same method of operation as before, brand new account, two words, no other meaningful contributions. Time obviously hasn't healed his/her gripe. - fchd 21:30, 22 May 2007 (UTC)
Nice try at protecting only the squad details, MZMcBride. You'll have to try something else though, because I can just remove the code for the template and reinstate the squad list from an earlier version, with Jon McCarty's nationality changed to English. Mane mane 21:02, 23 May 2007 (UTC)
No I won't live with it. He only played for Northern Ireland because he wasn't good enough to play for England. That doesn't make him Northern Irish. It just means he wanted to play international football for whoever could and would accept him. By the way, I've saved the details of the squad list in case MZMcBride (or any other administrator) decides to delete the history of the NVFC article to stop me copying-and-pasting the squad list from old versions of the page. Mane mane 21:40, 23 May 2007 (UTC)
Dream on. Deer hay 17:09, 24 May 2007 (UTC)
MZMcBride: Your warning "Attention: Removal of this template will result in immediate blocking." isn't going to work. My sock-puppets are blocked on sight anyway for being abusive socks. If you put in an automated revert of removal of that template and automated block of any account that removed it that would work. But is that technically possible? Ha ha ha ha ha. Plain Zed 21:06, 24 May 2007 (UTC)
The vandal is arguing that English should he his nationality because of where the player was born, but there is no such thing as English or Northern Irish nationality only British. So by his argument the flag should be a Union Flag, not a St. George's cross. Therefore the only thing that could be used is the national team he played for, if the flag is anything to do with sport. 86.142.103.241 05:35, 25 May 2007 (UTC)
Doh. I really shouldn't have said "If you put in an automated revert of removal of that template" should I? I've been beaten by my own idea. I'll knock it on the head now. 86.143.9.61 20:38, 25 May 2007 (UTC)
Semi-protection is pointless,the vandal will continue his behavior as he has obviously saved up accounts.

The season 1976-77 should warrant a special mention in the history of Vics being best FA Cup run in modern times. In November 1976 Vics beat Rochdale 2-1 in an FA Cup first round 2nd replay at Maine Rd after drawing 1-1 at Spotland and 0-0 at home, put Peterborough to the sword 4-0 in the 2nd round and beat Elton John's Watford 3-2 in a pulsating cup tie at the Drill Field in the third round with Frank Corrigan securing an interview on Match of The Day for scoring the winner. All hopes of a dream draw in the 4th round were foundered when Oldham Athletic at home came out of the hat. The match was moved to Maine road to get more fans in and 29,000 witnessed a brave battle from the Vics going down 3-1.
During the same season Northwich and Boston United were fighting it out for the Northern Premier League and Vics went to Scarborough on the last day of the season knowing a win won bring them the title. They drew 1-1 effectively handing the Lincolnshire side the title. A memorable season.
I've unprotected Template:Northwich Victoria Football Club squad for a bit so squad changes can be made more easily. Cowman109 Talk 21:48, 29 September 2007 (UTC)
I suggest that the template is now deleted and the details put back into the page itself. I believe it serves no purpose now because a) Simon Rusk and Jon McCarthy don't play for Northwich anymore and b) the bot didn't work properly anyway. I'm willing to make the edit to the page but want to check whether it should be done by an administrator (obviously I can't delete the template anyway, only blank it). 81.153.14.100 16:46, 30 September 2007 (UTC)
I've had a go at updating the squad, there are three players I am struggling to find more details for.

Please will an admin change the "Famous former player" section to "Famous former players" and include Billy Meredith. I suggest the following:
Bruce Grobbelaar, goalkeeper for Liverpool Football Club during the 1980s and former national goalkeeper for Zimbabwe, made 1 appearance for Northwich Victoria during the late 1990s. Billy Meredith played for the club in the early 1890s.

{{ editprotected}} The "Current players" and "Famous former players" need updating. I have combined these, adding an "on loan" section which is now needed, to create a "players" section at User:Snigbrook/Sandbox with the updated information. I have used FootballSquads.co.uk as a reference, combined with recent news.
There is one thing I'm not sure about: FootballSquads.co.uk has been updated recently (November 2008 or later), but still includes Mark King in the squad, and according to the reference he left in September 2008. — Snigbrook 17:13, 10 January 2009 (UTC)

A short section about the breakaway club, 1874 Northwich FC, has been added back to this article, based on the wording (and news sources) in the 1874 Northwich FC article. The article was raised at Articles for Deletion at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/1874 Northwich FC and the decision was to merge to Northwich Victoria F.C.
I was unsure where to add the addition. There was previously a mention in the 'History' section but, because the new club is not part of Northwich Victoria (though related via the supporters club) I've merged it further down the article, nearer to 'Rivalries'. Hope that makes sense to some people! Sionk ( talk) 00:22, 8 January 2013 (UTC)
Can I make the heretical suggestion that this article contains immense and probably not-notable detail for a club which had only two Football League seasons, over 100 years ago? Yes it is one of the oldest football clubs still in existence, but that is (justifiably) stated early on. There are more notable English clubs with much scantier details, which might better repay some improvement work. Or is there just a large contingent of NVFC fans on Wikipedia? Chrismorey ( talk) 22:31, 25 October 2013 (UTC)
There is currently an edit war over the inclusion of a certain section in this article. Edit warring is strongly disapproved of here and can lead to blocks and other sanctions. Parties to disputes should use the dispute resolution process (in particular discussing the issue with the other party on the article talk page) rather than edit warring. I have protected the page for one week to force the participants to discuss the issue here. If the edit war continues then the protection will be extended further and participants may be blocked. Hut 8.5 16:14, 17 November 2013 (UTC)
The issue has already been discussed in the edit summaries. You have protected the wrong version. 149.254.51.139 ( talk) 22:43, 17 November 2013 (UTC)
The only insults in the edit summaries are from Only1nvfc and you've protected his/her version of the page. 149.254.51.139 ( talk) 23:22, 17 November 2013 (UTC)
As the IP editor I accept that the section was a bit long for the article about NVFC given that 1874 Northwich has its own article. I suggest the following as per C.Fred's suggestion. I do not believe that Only1nvfc will leave this in the article however.
A breakaway club, 1874 Northwich F.C., now play in the North West Counties League First Division. They were founded by the Northwich Victoria Supporters Trust following a vote by its membership on 15 November 2012 to break away from the club they supported and form a new community owned team in their town. [1] [2] It emerged, on the day of the vote, that the owner of Northwich Victoria had been declared bankrupt and therefore failed the FA Fit and Proper Persons test. [3] Supporters chose the name 1874 Northwich for the club; [4] in order to avoid legal issues over the new club's name none of the proposed options presented to fans included the words Vics or Victoria. [5]
149.254.186.3 ( talk) 22:40, 18 November 2013 (UTC)
There's no consensus here; it's 1:1. It's not a splinter club; it's taken well over half of the fans with it. 149.254.183.90 ( talk) 22:43, 25 November 2013 (UTC)

I've unprotected Template:Northwich Victoria Football Club squad for a bit so squad changes can be made more easily. Cowman109 Talk 21:48, 29 September 2007 (UTC)
I suggest that the template is now deleted and the details put back into the page itself. I believe it serves no purpose now because a) Simon Rusk and Jon McCarthy don't play for Northwich anymore and b) the bot didn't work properly anyway. I'm willing to make the edit to the page but want to check whether it should be done by an administrator (obviously I can't delete the template anyway, only blank it). 81.153.14.100 16:46, 30 September 2007 (UTC)
I've had a go at updating the squad, there are three players I am struggling to find more details for.

The new home shirt has a solid green body and white sleeves. The shorts and socks remain white. Please see following link showing photo from today's game against Altrincham; scroll down the match report page. I don't know whether the away strip has changed.

Simon Rusk has now left Northwich Victoria. Please can Simon Rusk be removed from the page / the page be unprotected as Jon McCarthy and Simon Rusk no longer play for Northwich? Also can someone please advise as to how the strip colour is edited or provide a link within Wikipedia so I can provide the correct details / change it myself if the page is unprotected?
Thanks. Oorpt ( talk) 19:11, 6 January 2008 (UTC)
Thank you. That looks good. Are you prepared to unprotect the page now that there are no players at the club whose nationality could feasibly be disputed?

Please will an admin change the "Famous former player" section to "Famous former players" and include Billy Meredith. I suggest the following:
Bruce Grobbelaar, goalkeeper for Liverpool Football Club during the 1980s and former national goalkeeper for Zimbabwe, made 1 appearance for Northwich Victoria during the late 1990s. Billy Meredith played for the club in the early 1890s.
Thanks. Oorpt ( talk) 00:17, 17 January 2008 (UTC)

The club's official website [4] doesn't work at the moment but please see the Google cache of a relevant page on the club's website [5] and a government link showing the club's address [6]. The stadium has been renamed due to a sponsorship deal with Marston's (brewer and pub operator). Please will you rename the Victoria Stadium page as Marston's Arena and perhaps include the previous name in the article. Thanks. 90.200.149.127 ( talk) 00:49, 25 February 2008 (UTC)

Also some updates: Michael Carr now plays for Morecambe [12] and Brad Maylett was released and joined Leigh RMI [13]. Michael Bowler was signed by Kidderminster a few days ago. [14]. These should be removed from the squad; there are probably other changes but I cannot find details of the current squad anywhere ( footballsquads.co.uk is not up to date). -- Snigbrook (talk) 01:04, 12 August 2008 (UTC)

His nationality on this page is being changed between English and Irish. He is a former Ireland youth international according to the Wikipedia article (although the article has category and stub for English footballers; and some sources (e.g. The Guardian) say he is Irish, but according to soccerbase.com he is English.

The current logo picture is an old one. Northwich is now using a new one. Please replace it. It looks old and is on low resolution. Please visit the club official website www.northwichvics.co.uk/ to have a look at Northwich new logo. Please just delete it, or please change it with a new one. Please don't humiliate and insult the club by using this old logo. Thanks.
As this page has been protected could somebody please make these updates.
Thank you. Dirk Valentine ( talk) 12:55, 2 January 2009 (UTC)
{{ editprotected}} The "Current players" and "Famous former players" need updating. I have combined these, adding an "on loan" section which is now needed, to create a "players" section at User:Snigbrook/Sandbox with the updated information. I have used FootballSquads.co.uk as a reference, combined with recent news.
There is one thing I'm not sure about: FootballSquads.co.uk has been updated recently (November 2008 or later), but still includes Mark King in the squad, and according to the reference he left in September 2008. — Snigbrook 17:13, 10 January 2009 (UTC)

Northwich's home strip has changed. Please see their official website and look at recent match reports. Their website won't give a link.
It now has horizontal green and white stripes and predominantly green sleeves (with a white strip and black chevrons).
Please will someone change it. Thanks. 217.43.185.95 ( talk) 18:04, 17 August 2009 (UTC)
Not done: Welcome and thanks for wnting to improve this article. The {{editsemiprotected}}
template requires a 'Please change X to Y' level of detail. I looked and couldn't find an obvious place for this description. Also, a factual change like this should have a reference to a

The players who were born in England but played for another country have now left the club; the page can probably be unprotected now.

A short section about the breakaway club, 1874 Northwich FC, has been added back to this article, based on the wording (and news sources) in the 1874 Northwich FC article. The article was raised at Articles for Deletion at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/1874 Northwich FC and the decision was to merge to Northwich Victoria F.C.
I was unsure where to add the addition. There was previously a mention in the 'History' section but, because the new club is not part of Northwich Victoria (though related via the supporters club) I've merged it further down the article, nearer to 'Rivalries'. Hope that makes sense to some people! Sionk ( talk) 00:22, 8 January 2013 (UTC)
Can I make the heretical suggestion that this article contains immense and probably not-notable detail for a club which had only two Football League seasons, over 100 years ago? Yes it is one of the oldest football clubs still in existence, but that is (justifiably) stated early on. There are more notable English clubs with much scantier details, which might better repay some improvement work. Or is there just a large contingent of NVFC fans on Wikipedia?

There is currently an edit war over the inclusion of a certain section in this article. Edit warring is strongly disapproved of here and can lead to blocks and other sanctions. Parties to disputes should use the dispute resolution process (in particular discussing the issue with the other party on the article talk page) rather than edit warring. I have protected the page for one week to force the participants to discuss the issue here. If the edit war continues then the protection will be extended further and participants may be blocked.

As the IP editor I accept that the section was a bit long for the article about NVFC given that 1874 Northwich has its own article. I suggest the following as per C.Fred's suggestion. I do not believe that Only1nvfc will leave this in the article however.
A breakaway club, 1874 Northwich F.C., now play in the North West Counties League First Division. They were founded by the Northwich Victoria Supporters Trust following a vote by its membership on 15 November 2012 to break away from the club they supported and form a new community owned team in their town. [1] [2] It emerged, on the day of the vote, that the owner of Northwich Victoria had been declared bankrupt and therefore failed the FA Fit and Proper Persons test. [3] Supporters chose the name 1874 Northwich for the club; [4] in order to avoid legal issues over the new club's name none of the proposed options presented to fans included the words Vics or Victoria.

There's no consensus here; it's 1:1. It's not a splinter club; it's taken well over half of the fans with it. 149.254.183.90 ( talk) 22:43, 25 November 2013 (UTC)
