As to the sections, there's no point making an eleven-word Personal life section, when it can be sensibly combined with his youth football. I wouldn't object to moving Luton into the Club career, and leaving birthplace/school/youth football in Early life. But we're advised against small sections, and three or four lines really is a very small section, because they make the article cluttered and break up the flow of the prose.

The club season link isn't an error. That column is supposed to link to club seasons, because that's what's more likely to be relevant to each row of a player's career stats table, and by extension useful to the reader wanting extra information. Just because no-one's started the 2013/14 Southend season article yet doesn't mean they never will. Redlinks are good (check out WP:REDLINK) and linking to a relevant and appropriate redlink is really much better than linking to something pretty irrelevant just for the sake of linking to something. cheers, Struway2 (talk) 14:41, 4 October 2013 (UTC)Reply

Father claim edit

This article claims that someone is the father of the subject. There was a legal threat about that, even. I have removed the claim. The source, and the other source I could find are unreliable, too close to the subject and yet not directly claims from the person itself. Lurking shadow (talk) 21:48, 31 July 2019 (UTC)Reply

I would have thought that Watford F.C.'s website would be a reliable source since the website is operated by the club itself. It does say that the mentioned former footballer is the father of the subject from the source. I've also seen from the page history that someone has claimed to be a family member of Cauley but that has not been verified (and I am not certain on it) and many people have been using the edit war technique without using this page, a couple of which are in the 30-500 level. The Barnsley profile only lists football related content and biography but no family details.
The legal threat yesterday has been dealt with by an administrator but this type of editing should have been discussed here instead of the article being fully protected as found out yesterday. If anyone else is spotted removing or reinserting the same content without using this talk page first or someone has spotted future sock puppets, similar consequences may happen again as found out on the eve of the first EFL match.
