Hello there,
i know that Sergio Cirio (and many many others) was (were) in horrible shape (according to you and only you, seemingly) before you stepped in, but how would you rate this article then? "Kind of" in need of a cleanup, would you agree?

You do have a point there, as article is very very small. But the two lines of text are appalling, and ditto for the overall display. This maybe was not the best choice to illustrate my point, but bottom line is: i've seen (and continue to see) articles on pro players/managers in conditions unfit for a blog or a forum, let alone an encyclopedia, in much much much worse conditions than those i work on, still a bit amazed/uneasy to find my edits continue to draw your attention so much.

1 - everything, but if you feel differently then we clearly have different definitions of what a proper article looks like, not criticising your M.O.; 2 - in my view, spells with amateur teams do not necessarily belong in storyline, given that to play in Segunda División B or lower does not grant one an article.
3 - problem(s)? None whatsoever, you on the other hand seem to have one with my edits, and that is what i referred to in my last lines of the original message. I fear we are never going to see eye to eye regarding our approach(es) to the encyclopedia, so i'll just stop posting here regarding this subject. Sorry to bother you. -- Quite A Character ( talk) 20:47, 1 June 2019 (UTC)
Regarding your last line, no of course not, you're always welcome to do so! Attentively -- Quite A Character ( talk) 20:27, 2 June 2019 (UTC)
Interact regarding content, isn't it what talkpages are for (and regarding Jonathan Ruiz (footballer, born 1982), what's wrong with writing "latter club"? Perfectly correct usage of English, or not?)? Have a nice week -- Quite A Character ( talk) 22:24, 2 June 2019 (UTC)
Almost forgot to comment on this: in one of your replies, you say "other editors have criticised your use of English". Other than yourself, who? The IP who's trying to hound me out of WP? Not that many, to be fair (although i cannot stress it enough that i agree with you, i do incur in more grammatical/syntax mistakes than i would like to)... -- Quite A Character ( talk) 22:28, 2 June 2019 (UTC)
Thanks for the reply(es). Regarding Mr. Ruiz's article (I honestly forgot what your original reply was regarding the matter), if you have two subjects (in this case football clubs), when is it deemed appropriate to use "former" and "latter" to avoid repetition of said subjects? -- Quite A Character ( talk) 07:53, 3 June 2019 (UTC)
