Why isn't Adnan Januzaj notable? He won reserve player of the year award and has once been in the squad for a Premier League match. KOwool ( talk) 15:08, 5 July 2013 (UTC)
I saw you removed the "|stadium =" parameter in CEDEAO Cup, for which I recently added details. Please do not do that because it results something that looks like this
Ivory Coast ![]() | 2–0 | ![]() |
---|---|---|
Compare with this: (WITH void parameter |stadium =)
Ivory Coast ![]() | 2–0 | ![]() |
---|---|---|
Also, when you use |penaltyscore =, but are not aware of the scorers, please add void parameters |penalties1= and |penalties2=, otherwise it will result in something like this:
Ivory Coast ![]() | 2–0 | ![]() |
---|---|---|
Penalties | ||
3–2 |

We are currently running a study on the effects of adding additional information to SuggestBot's suggestions. Participation in the study is voluntary. Should you wish to not participate in the study, or have questions or concerns, you can find contact information on the SuggestBot study page.
IMPORTANT CHANGES: We have modified the selection of articles SuggestBot suggests and altered the design to incorporate more information about the articles, as described in this explanation.
Note: All columns in this table are sortable, allowing you to rearrange the table so the articles most interesting to you are shown at the top. All images have mouse-over popups with more information.
We have changed the number of suggested articles and which categories they are selected from. The number of stubs has been greatly reduced, the number of articles needing sources doubled, and two new categories added (orphans and unencyclopaedic articles). We have also modified the layout of the suggestions and added sortable columns with various types of information about each article. The first two columns are:
The method we use to predict article quality also allows us to assess whether an article might need specific types of work in order to improve its quality. The work needed might not correspond to cleanup tags added to the article, since our method is not based on those. We have added five columns reflecting this work assessment, where a red X indicates improvement is needed. Placing your cursor over an X should give you a pop-up with a short description of the work needed. The five columns seek to answer the following five questions:
SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work.

I am Piotr Konieczny, a fellow Wikipedian (User:Piotrus) and a researcher of Wikipedia ( http://scholar.google.com/citations?user=gdV8_AEAAAAJ). I am currently (in collaboration with WMF) embarking on a project trying to understand why the most active Wikipedia contributors (such as yourself) may reduce their activity, or retire. We have a growing understanding of why an average editor may do so (see http://strategy.wikimedia.org/wiki/Former_Contributors_Survey_Results), but we have a very limited understanding of why the top editors would limit their contributions. Yet it is the top editors like yourself who contribute most of Wikiepdia's content, thus understanding this is of vital concern to Wikipedia's project future.
I am contacting you because you are among the top Wikipediana by number of edits, yet your editing activity shows a decline. I would very much appreciate if you would take a minute and answer the following four short questions. Please note this is not a mass email; I am contacting only few dozen of editors like yourself, and each response is extremely valuable. Your response will not be made public, and your privacy will be fully respected.
If you would like to help out in this project and take part in a very short survey, please send me a wikiemail, so that I can send you an email with the survey questions. -- Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 12:32, 18 July 2013 (UTC)

We noticed though that when you edited Driven to Tears, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Beacon Theatre ( check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).

To answer your question, because "Manchester United" is not ambiguous to uneducated readers, whereas "Milan" being AC Milan is only obvious (to non footie fans) by comparison to Inter Milan.

You moved Template:1. FC Nuremberg squad to Template:1. FC Nürnberg squad. While I am indifferent about the change itself, I think it is not good to be inconsistent with the club's main page 1. FC Nuremberg. Kq-hit ( talk) 20:24, 9 August 2013 (UTC)
Wikipedia:Article titles clearly states that "Wikipedia prefers the name that is most commonly used (as determined by its prevalence in reliable English-language sources) as such names will be the most recognizable and the most natural." It goes on to say "Wikipedia does not necessarily use the subject's "official" name as an article title; it prefers to use the name that is most frequently used to refer to the subject in English-language reliable sources." So, why are you making an issue out of it? Kingjeff ( talk) 21:18, 9 August 2013 (UTC)
You are comparing an actual policy with a guideline. The guideline and policy doesn't really agree. 21:40, 9 August 2013 (UTC)

1. FC Nuremberg's website doesn't count. It's their own website. Most of the websites you provided doesn't have the umlaut. Therefore, it's really Nuremberg as opposed to Nürnberg. Kingjeff ( talk) 22:13, 9 August 2013 (UTC)
It's not the same word. The Anglicized version of Nürnberg is Nuernberg, not Nurnberg. I'm not excessively concerned about anything. The issue is about you and getting more authority over others. Kingjeff ( talk) 01:15, 10 August 2013 (UTC)

Hi PeeJay2K3, I hope you are doing fine. I am here to appeal your recent removing of replicated images from the winning tournament templates. It is permitted to create replica images on Wikipedia, and is actually the norm on Wikipedia for winning competition templates. And although it is unfortunate that you find them ugly, someone took a lot of time to create them and to contribute them to Wikipedia. Since these trophies fall in line with the normal layout for competition templates, I see no reason to remove these replicated images, unless you can come up with something better, otherwise I suggest keeping the trophies as a visual representation and identifier in the template. As is the case with all other international templates. (Seriously there around 20-30 of these templates all which include the trophy in the template, and you keep removing the trophies from three of them) we can open a discussion regarding these images, and debate their inclusion in the template. But if you continue to remove them from these three templates in question. European Cup and Champions League winners, UEFA Cup and Europa League winners and the UEFA Super Cup template, I will report this as vandalism. Please take the necessary steps of opening a discussion for removal of the images and go through the proper channels, if you feel you can argue a strong enough point which will lead to the removal of these images. But otherwise please refrain from removing them or I will report it. Thank you for you consideration, and have a nice day. Subzzee ( talk) 14:53, 9 September 2013 (UTC)

Today, I replaced some rugby union logos uploaded by yourself way back with SVGs available at the German Wikipedia. Rather than leave a raft of near-identical templated messages, I thought I'd write something more concise. So, here goes: File:Bath rugby badge.png, File:Bedford blues badge.png, File:Exeter chiefs badge.png, File:London wasps badge.png, File:Newcastle falcons badge.png were replaced, with several other files being tagged with {{Should be SVG|url=example.pdf}} where vector data was found.

Hi there. Just noticed that you replaced club-update and nationalteam-update with pcupdate and ntupdate in Etzaz Hussain's article. This is really no big deal, as they display the same information, but the parameters that you added are deprecated and will most likely be replaced by a bot in the future like the "playername" parameters and other was in November 2012.

Your recent editing history at European Cup and UEFA Champions League records and statistics shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.
To avoid being blocked, instead of reverting please consider using the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. See BRD for how this is done. You can post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection. Greenman ( talk) 12:56, 20 October 2013 (UTC)
Hey, since you're one of the top contributors on WP:FOOTY (from what I've seen), I've started a discussion regarding categories relating to the Fort Lauderdale Strikers that I'm trying to sort out. You can read the discussion right here. – Michael ( talk) 04:56, 21 October 2013 (UTC)
Your comments carry no weight: (1) The table you want to remove needs no source indications, as it was obtained by simple processing of easily verifiable raw data. (2) The fact that "CL winners traditionally [are not] grouped by city" is completely immaterial, for Wikipedia does not necessarily need to conform to tradition. The fact of the matter is that the "By City" table has been in this article for 3 1/2 years. Over this rather long period, the article was surely visited by many thousands Wikipedians, who obviously do not share your views about the table or else they would have removed it. You need to respect the work and opinions of others. So back off and move on. Angelo Somaschini ( talk • contribs) 18:17, 21 October 2013 (UTC)
Did you read WP:COMMONALITY? North Americans do not use the term stadia although they should be able to infer the meaning. It's not about your preference, but for a change for everyone to read and understand. Both stadiums' and stadia are used in British English and so it makes sense to use the former.

We are currently running a study on the effects of adding additional information to SuggestBot's suggestions. Participation in the study is voluntary. Should you wish to not participate in the study, or have questions or concerns, you can find contact information on the SuggestBot study page.
IMPORTANT CHANGES: We have modified the selection of articles SuggestBot suggests and altered the design to incorporate more information about the articles, as described in this explanation.
Note: All columns in this table are sortable, allowing you to rearrange the table so the articles most interesting to you are shown at the top. All images have mouse-over popups with more information.
We have changed the number of suggested articles and which categories they are selected from. The number of stubs has been greatly reduced, the number of articles needing sources doubled, and two new categories added (orphans and unencyclopaedic articles). We have also modified the layout of the suggestions and added sortable columns with various types of information about each article. The first two columns are:
The method we use to predict article quality also allows us to assess whether an article might need specific types of work in order to improve its quality. The work needed might not correspond to cleanup tags added to the article, since our method is not based on those. We have added five columns reflecting this work assessment, where a red X indicates improvement is needed. Placing your cursor over an X should give you a pop-up with a short description of the work needed. The five columns seek to answer the following five questions:

I saw you removed the "|stadium =" parameter in CEDEAO Cup, for which I recently added details. Please do not do that because it results something that looks like this
Ivory Coast ![]() | 2–0 | ![]() |
---|---|---|
Compare with this: (WITH void parameter |stadium =)
Ivory Coast ![]() | 2–0 | ![]() |
---|---|---|
Also, when you use |penaltyscore =, but are not aware of the scorers, please add void parameters |penalties1= and |penalties2=, otherwise it will result in something like this:
Ivory Coast ![]() | 2–0 | ![]() |
---|---|---|

I am Piotr Konieczny, a fellow Wikipedian (User:Piotrus) and a researcher of Wikipedia ( http://scholar.google.com/citations?user=gdV8_AEAAAAJ). I am currently (in collaboration with WMF) embarking on a project trying to understand why the most active Wikipedia contributors (such as yourself) may reduce their activity, or retire. We have a growing understanding of why an average editor may do so (see http://strategy.wikimedia.org/wiki/Former_Contributors_Survey_Results), but we have a very limited understanding of why the top editors would limit their contributions. Yet it is the top editors like yourself who contribute most of Wikiepdia's content, thus understanding this is of vital concern to Wikipedia's project future.
I am contacting you because you are among the top Wikipediana by number of edits, yet your editing activity shows a decline. I would very much appreciate if you would take a minute and answer the following four short questions. Please note this is not a mass email; I am contacting only few dozen of editors like yourself, and each response is extremely valuable. Your response will not be made public, and your privacy will be fully respected.
If you would like to help out in this project and take part in a very short survey, please send me a wikiemail, so that I can send you an email with the survey questions. -- Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 12:32, 18 July 2013 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Article titles clearly states that "Wikipedia prefers the name that is most commonly used (as determined by its prevalence in reliable English-language sources) as such names will be the most recognizable and the most natural." It goes on to say "Wikipedia does not necessarily use the subject's "official" name as an article title; it prefers to use the name that is most frequently used to refer to the subject in English-language reliable sources."

Hi PeeJay2K3, I hope you are doing fine. I am here to appeal your recent removing of replicated images from the winning tournament templates. It is permitted to create replica images on Wikipedia, and is actually the norm on Wikipedia for winning competition templates. And although it is unfortunate that you find them ugly, someone took a lot of time to create them and to contribute them to Wikipedia. Since these trophies fall in line with the normal layout for competition templates, I see no reason to remove these replicated images, unless you can come up with something better, otherwise I suggest keeping the trophies as a visual representation and identifier in the template. As is the case with all other international templates. (Seriously there around 20-30 of these templates all which include the trophy in the template, and you keep removing the trophies from three of them) we can open a discussion regarding these images, and debate their inclusion in the template. But if you continue to remove them from these three templates in question. European Cup and Champions League winners, UEFA Cup and Europa League winners and the UEFA Super Cup template, I will report this as vandalism. Please take the necessary steps of opening a discussion for removal of the images and go through the proper channels, if you feel you can argue a strong enough point which will lead to the removal of these images. But otherwise please refrain from removing them or I will report it. Thank you for you consideration, and have a nice day. Subzzee ( talk) 14:53, 9 September 2013 (UTC)

We are currently running a study on the effects of adding additional information to SuggestBot's suggestions. Participation in the study is voluntary. Should you wish to not participate in the study, or have questions or concerns, you can find contact information on the SuggestBot study page.
IMPORTANT CHANGES: We have modified the selection of articles SuggestBot suggests and altered the design to incorporate more information about the articles, as described in this explanation.
Note: All columns in this table are sortable, allowing you to rearrange the table so the articles most interesting to you are shown at the top. All images have mouse-over popups with more information.
We have changed the number of suggested articles and which categories they are selected from. The number of stubs has been greatly reduced, the number of articles needing sources doubled, and two new categories added (orphans and unencyclopaedic articles). We have also modified the layout of the suggestions and added sortable columns with various types of information about each article. The first two columns are:
The method we use to predict article quality also allows us to assess whether an article might need specific types of work in order to improve its quality. The work needed might not correspond to cleanup tags added to the article, since our method is not based on those. We have added five columns reflecting this work assessment, where a red X indicates improvement is needed. Placing your cursor over an X should give you a pop-up with a short description of the work needed. The five columns seek to answer the following five questions:
SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. We appreciate that you have signed up to receive suggestions regularly, your contributions make Wikipedia better — thanks for helping!

Today, I replaced some rugby union logos uploaded by yourself way back with SVGs available at the German Wikipedia. Rather than leave a raft of near-identical templated messages, I thought I'd write something more concise. So, here goes: File:Bath rugby badge.png, File:Bedford blues badge.png, File:Exeter chiefs badge.png, File:London wasps badge.png, File:Newcastle falcons badge.png were replaced, with several other files being tagged with {{Should be SVG|url=example.pdf}} where vector data was found. Thank you, and take care :) Malpass93! ( what I've been up to/ drop me a ___) 22:50, 8 October 2013 (UTC)
Hi there. Just noticed that you replaced club-update and nationalteam-update with pcupdate and ntupdate in Etzaz Hussain's article. This is really no big deal, as they display the same information, but the parameters that you added are deprecated and will most likely be replaced by a bot in the future like the "playername" parameters and other was in November 2012.

Your recent editing history at European Cup and UEFA Champions League records and statistics shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.
To avoid being blocked, instead of reverting please consider using the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. See BRD for how this is done. You can post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection. Greenman ( talk) 12:56, 20 October 2013 (UTC)
Hey, since you're one of the top contributors on WP:FOOTY (from what I've seen), I've started a discussion regarding categories relating to the Fort Lauderdale Strikers that I'm trying to sort out. You can read the discussion right here. – Michael ( talk) 04:56, 21 October 2013 (UTC)
Your comments carry no weight: (1) The table you want to remove needs no source indications, as it was obtained by simple processing of easily verifiable raw data. (2) The fact that "CL winners traditionally [are not] grouped by city" is completely immaterial, for Wikipedia does not necessarily need to conform to tradition. The fact of the matter is that the "By City" table has been in this article for 3 1/2 years. Over this rather long period, the article was surely visited by many thousands Wikipedians, who obviously do not share your views about the table or else they would have removed it. You need to respect the work and opinions of others. So back off and move on. Angelo Somaschini ( talk • contribs) 18:17, 21 October 2013 (UTC)
Did you read WP:COMMONALITY? North Americans do not use the term stadia although they should be able to infer the meaning. It's not about your preference, but for a change for everyone to read and understand. Both stadiums' and stadia are used in British English and so it makes sense to use the former.
