Hi. I declined your prod nomination of this article because of the link in the article. The team may very well not be notable, but I think we should go the WP:AFD route to establish this - I won't mind at all if you choose to nominate it as such. - Lilac Soul ( talk • contribs • count) 13:48, 16 March 2009 (UTC)
{{helpme}} Having moved a page from Nagaland national football team to Nagaland football team I wanted to fix pages that link there. Looking at 'what links here' gives a series of pages that don't link there at all. Any ideas why? -- Stu.W UK ( talk) 14:07, 19 March 2009 (UTC)
I'll have a look and respond soon -- Chzz ► 14:09, 19 March 2009 (UTC)
OK; if you go to Nagaland national football team, it will redirect you to the new name, but at the top, in small letters, it says, "Redirected from Nagaland national football team". If you click on that, you'll be on the actual redirect page, which is just 1 line.
Then click on "what links here", and you'll see the list of pages. They link to the redirect, not to the new page.
Hope that makes sense?
And, if you don't want to edit all those pages, don't worry - a 'bot will should pick them up and change them automagically in a few days.
Hope that answers? Thanks, -- Chzz ► 14:14, 19 March 2009 (UTC)
Thanks; the problem is though that those pages don't link there! Most of those pages were using a similar template, but Nagaland is no longer on it. Could it be related to that? Stu.W UK ( talk) 14:21, 19 March 2009 (UTC)
Looking again, will reply soon -- Chzz ► 14:36, 19 March 2009 (UTC)
This one puzzled several of us for a while - I couldn't work out why I couldn't find it anywhere, using advanced search. I thought it was a backlink in the image, but that didn't fix it. However, we think it's just a caching issue with the wiki servers.
From WP:WHATLINKSHERE; "if a page's links change due to a change in the template, the backlinks for that page are not updated immediately, but via the job queue."
So I'm pretty sure it will just take time for the servers to update their links. Please wait for 12 hours; if it's still a problem, please let me know.
Thanks, -- Chzz ► 16:16, 19 March 2009 (UTC)
No problem. Also, if you do a null edit on one of the articles, it disappears from the list, because when you save it, the templates are refreshed. -- Chzz ► 16:37, 19 March 2009 (UTC)
{{helpme}} There are 4 useless articles on pseudonational football teams that I think needn't exist as they have not yet played any matches and are of little notability. However I do think it would be useful for them to redirect to the NF-Board page as they are members of that association and that would be the only thing that conferred any notability on them whatsoever. Should I just AfD them or is there another process to go through. These are the pages fyi

Please can I ask that when you nominate an article for deletion, you add an appropriate edit summary for the AfD log. Wikipedia:Articles for deletion#How to list pages for deletion: Step number three suggests you use a summary such as "Adding [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/NominationName]]". This makes it easier for those watching the log to easily access discussion pages. A blank summary isn't very informative or useful. Thanks! Jenuk1985 | Talk 14:06, 24 March 2009 (UTC)
I agree that the template needs tidying, but that element of technical twiddling is something I haven't get very involved in.
I think my preference would be to have the sections as continental sections (maybe with Spain/British Isles/Rest of Europe as three separate sections, given the number of teams in those two categories), as that would make it easier to know what section to look in for a particular team: maybe superscript numbers within the section to indicate the categories that you have used.
There is a problem about the non-exclusiveness of categories, such that 4 teams are duplicated.
I also have an antipathy to negative definitions: the teams who play in my local park on Sunday mornings are not registered with FIFA or the NF Board either, so I would prefer something like non-national representative football teams as the header for the box.
But I don't want to be negative: what you have done is a great improvement on the existing template, and certainly of "Wikipublishable" quality. Kevin McE ( talk) 19:29, 24 March 2009 (UTC)
{{helpme}} I'm trying to learn how to use navboxes. In my Sandbox I've created a navbox using collapsible groups (see the last of the 3). I want to be able to add notes to each individual group, rather than just using the <below> command as I have for the note about defunct teams.
Also, is there a way to make, for example, the 'Europe' group display uncollapsed on all the pages for teams in that group, with all the other groups collapsed? Hope that makes some sense, thanks Stu.W UK ( talk) 00:56, 27 March 2009 (UTC)
Ok, after much playing around, it looks to me like you have 2 specific questions;
Answer: use grouped refs; Example solution: User:Chzz/stu1

Hi. These Korean clubs are known as senior football clubs. Some of them paticipated Korean FA Cup qualification. You will find some of these club in some season of Korean FA Cup. the other clubs are competing various regional tournament in South Korea. In this page (sorry, I can't found English page.

Will not work as FIFA attributes Czechoslovakias results and honours to both the Czech Republic and Slovakia. And seriously, I can't see the problem with showing the articles we have that fit the criteria of a template, its the system used on probably all sports. Fasach Nua is trying through some twisted logic (such as thinking he's making a smart point saying every version of a national team ever played is defunct) to hide articles readers will want to have easier access on, just as we don't hide the of the former leagues we shouldn't hide the national teams. And merging articles such as USSR/CIS/Russia I imagine could cause uproar by editors from other former Soviet Republics, there (as its used wiki-wide) seems to be a consensus for having separate articles for the countries that split into two, just as we keep articles on Soviet Union and Czechoslovakia we have articles that cover the national teams that represented them. And I have proposed to Fasach Nua on multiple times to propose merging of the articles but he's so far ignored it (because he probably thinks a proposal wouldn't go through), so until the articles we have on former teams don't exist anymore, they should not be hidden. chan dler ··· 14:07, 16 May 2009 (UTC)

Good evening! This is a friendly message from Chase me ladies, I'm the Cavalry, inviting you to the London Wikimedia Fundraising party on 19th December 2010, in approximately one week. This party is being held at an artistic London venue with room for approximately 300 people, and is being funded by Ed Saperia, a non-Wikipedian who has a reputation for holding exclusive events all over London. This year, he wants to help Wikipedia, and is subsidising a charity event for us. We're keen to get as many Wikimedians coming as possible, and we already have approximately 200 guests, including members of the press, and some mystery guests! More details can be found at http://ten.wikipedia.org/wiki/London - expect an Eigenharp, a mulled wine hot tub, a free hog roast, a haybale amphitheatre and more. If you're interested in coming - and we'd love to have you - please go to the ten.wikipedia page and follow the link to the Facebook event. Signing up on Facebook will add you to the party guestlist. Entry fee is a heavily subsidised £5 and entry is restricted to over 18s. It promises to be a 10th birthday party to remember! If you have any questions, please email me at chasemewiki at gmail.com.
Hope we'll see you there, (and apologies for the talk page spam) - Chase me ladies, I'm the Cavalry ( talk) 00:00, 13 December 2010 (UTC)

I declined your proposed deletion of this page. The references seem to establish that it exists, and if it is an official team of the island of Tobago it would appear to be likely notable.

Restored from deleted Talk:Saint Croix official football team See alaso my comment at Wikipedia:Requests_for_undeletion#Talk:Saint_Croix_official_football_team -- Tikiwont ( talk) 13:09, 16 March 2011 (UTC)
This comment is in response to the decision to delete this page.
I guess it may seem a fair option to delete this page, if these tournaments are not deemed notable. But I am not sure why they are not deemed notable. The tournaments were reported in the local newspapers of the time, some of which are available with a careful search on the internet. I can give links to reports on the Virgin Islands Championship as well. There is no question that they took place. The Leeward Islands Tournament was certainly notable, and has a history spanning over 50 years. It was the main international competitive outlet for the islands of the Leewards group until around 10 years ago. To that end, why, for example, are any small island teams notable? They are notable because they represent that island in international competition. Deleting any record of their existence appears a bit unusual. For example, the Leeward Islands tournament has provided the British Virgin Islands national team with their only ever international honour. To them it is certainly notable. 92.18.158.143 ( talk) 23:30, 10 March 2011 (UTC)

Hi. You may be interested in participating in the African Destubathon which starts on October 15. Africa currently has over 37,000 stubs and badly needs a quality improvement editathon/contest to flesh out basic stubs. There are proposed substantial prizes to give to editors who do the most articles, and planned smaller prizes for doing to most destubs for each of the 53 African countries, so should be enjoyable! So it would be a good chance to win something for improving stubs on African sportspeople, including footballers, athletes, Olympians and Paralympians etc, particularly female ones, but also male. Even if contests aren't your thing we would be grateful if you could consider destubbing a few African articles during the drive to help the cause and help reduce the massive 37,000 + stub count, of which many are rated high importance (think Regions of countries etc). If you're interested in competing or just loosely contributing a few expanded articles on African Paralympians, Olympians and committees etc, please add your name to the Contestants/participants section. Diversity of work from a lot of people will make this that bit more special. Thanks. -- MediaWiki message delivery ( talk) 21:13, 6 October 2016 (UTC)

This comment is in response to the decision to delete this page.
I guess it may seem a fair option to delete this page, if these tournaments are not deemed notable. But I am not sure why they are not deemed notable. The tournaments were reported in the local newspapers of the time, some of which are available with a careful search on the internet. I can give links to reports on the Virgin Islands Championship as well. There is no question that they took place. The Leeward Islands Tournament was certainly notable, and has a history spanning over 50 years. It was the main international competitive outlet for the islands of the Leewards group until around 10 years ago. To that end, why, for example, are any small island teams notable? They are notable because they represent that island in international competition. Deleting any record of their existence appears a bit unusual. For example, the Leeward Islands tournament has provided the British Virgin Islands national team with their only ever international honour. To them it is certainly notable. 92.18.158.143 ( talk) 23:30, 10 March 2011 (UTC)

Hi. You may be interested in participating in the African Destubathon which starts on October 15. Africa currently has over 37,000 stubs and badly needs a quality improvement editathon/contest to flesh out basic stubs. There are proposed substantial prizes to give to editors who do the most articles, and planned smaller prizes for doing to most destubs for each of the 53 African countries, so should be enjoyable! So it would be a good chance to win something for improving stubs on African sportspeople, including footballers, athletes, Olympians and Paralympians etc, particularly female ones, but also male. Even if contests aren't your thing we would be grateful if you could consider destubbing a few African articles during the drive to help the cause and help reduce the massive 37,000 + stub count, of which many are rated high importance (think Regions of countries etc). If you're interested in competing or just loosely contributing a few expanded articles on African Paralympians, Olympians and committees etc, please add your name to the Contestants/participants section. Diversity of work from a lot of people will make this that bit more special. Thanks. -- MediaWiki message delivery ( talk) 21:13, 6 October 2016 (UTC)
