Do we have a citation for the winners of 2015 going in rather than the winners of the centenary edition in 2016? 81.99.247.253 ( talk) 18:24, 1 April 2015 (UTC)
Either it is for the Confederations Cup, so Gibraltar cannot definitely not qualify, or it is Euro 2016 so they (in theory) could qualify so they should be listed as they are not yet eliminated. Which is it? Red Jay ( talk) 08:25, 13 July 2015 (UTC)@
This list is for the Confederations Cup: no Russia (host), no Germany (World Cup winner), no Gibraltar (not FIFA's member), no Serbia (eliminated). GAV80 ( talk) 08:43, 13 July 2015 (UTC)
What is the source for the following edit..... If Russia or Germany win Euro 2016, the best-placed FIFA member not yet qualified will take the spot
There is no reference to this on FIFA.com.
Also, what is meant by 'the best-placed FIFA member'? Is this a reference to FIFA Rankings?

In the draw, the team from Pot 2 that was drawn in position B1 was presented as "Champion of Africa", because its identity was not known at the time and would be determined later. It would therefore be inaccurate and misleading to directly list " Cameroon" in the Draw section; the team would be best described as "Champion of Africa" or something similar, with a footnote explaining that it was eventually determined as Cameroon. Please discuss before reverting yet again.
Besides, Cameroon's position in the FIFA Rankings as of 24 November was 65th, not 64th as it says in the version you're restoring. -- Theurgist ( talk) 10:40, 7 February 2017 (UTC)
What is going on with random IPs and users randomly adding new broadcasters to the table? Did these networks ACTUALLY confirm their intent to broadcast this tournament?

In the broadcasting rights section...
I have one to add: TDM ( /info/en/?search=TDM_(Macau) ) is the broadcaster that got the rights to Macau, as you can see in this list: http://www.onlinefreefootball.com/2017/06/watch-russia-vs-new-zealand-fifa.html In fact, I'm in Macau watching the match Russia-New Zealand, in that network in this exact moment...

Qualification for Russia is listed as "2018 FIFA World Cup hosts". That is actually not correct. It should just say "Host", since they qualified as hosts of this tournament itself. Compare: Qatar will not participate in 2021 FIFA Confederations Cup, unless, of course, they qualify as winner of 2019 AFC Asian Cup, or 2018 FIFA World Cup, which seems unlikely. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.230.35.228 ( talk) 19:52, 18 June 2017 (UTC)
Re: this edit, was there ever a discussion about how players should be sorted in any list? I've been used to sorting players by the nation they represented, then alphabetical order. Jd02022092 ( talk) 23:53, 18 June 2017 (UTC)
I'd like to revisit this issue, and ask @ Mediocre Legacy to explain his side of the issue. jd22292 (Jalen D. Folf) 18:28, 24 June 2017 (UTC)
I've recently seen the alphabetical format in a lot of articles, and I feel it's just an easier way to identify the top scorers by name, with their nation being a secondary concern. Mediocre Legacy ( talk) 14:36, 24 June 2017 (EST)
I'd like to question the inclusion of assists in this article. I don't see 2013 FIFA Confederations Cup listing assists outside the statistics page, so why include them here? jd22292 (Jalen D. Folf) 20:31, 22 June 2017 (UTC)
@ S.A. Julio: I notice you were the one that added the assists to the page before I took them off on the basis I described above. May I ask what made you include them in this article? jd22292 (Jalen D. Folf) 03:03, 24 June 2017 (UTC)
34 goals after group stage, not 33 in statistics theme
"There have been 33 goals scored in 12 matches, for an average of 2.75 goals per match." that's
why can 't i correct it? change it, if not me! it's 34 goals, hey??/!!! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ramirez2387 ( talk • contribs) 17:21, 25 June 2017 (UTC)

Guess, this should be added as well into FAN ID section. Many spectators willing to attend 2017 FIFA Confederations Cup games have had their FAN IDs cancelled just few hours prior to the first game of the tournament with tickets and the related accommodations already prepaid. Most of those didn’t have any criminal or administrative record related to the football violence and haven’t been listed in the blacklist of violent football fans either. Still no explanation from the organizers and the authorities has followed so far.

It has come to my attention that the link to the article for Russia is consistently being removed from this article per WP:OVERLINK, and I'd like to reach a consensus on behalf of @ Walter Görlitz on whether or not this change should be applied to all tournament articles.
