Aston Villa edits edit
Hi there, I have reverted your edits to Aston Villa F.C. and Aston Villa F.C. seasons as they do not really improve the article for the layman reader. The shortening of the names in the seasons article would be confusing to those who don't know much about football (Albert Arthur Brown is confusing enough as it is), and this version of the names is preferred at WP:FLC.
Regarding the main AVFC article, some people don't know which flags are whose and so the nationalities are needed to distinguish this. The same can be said of the dates, the shortended version is against the Manual of Style, our style guide. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to leave a message at my talkpage. Regards.

- Yep, that is how we leave messages round here. Remember to add four tildes: (~~~~) The nationalities bit is contentious on Wikipedia, we do have the flags guideline. Not sure it has much relevance here though. I think the best bet is to open up a discussion at Wikipedia:WikiProject Football. I can do it if you want. Woody (talk) 20:51, 1 March 2008 (UTC)
