List of Manchester United F.C. players edit

Self-nom. The list is comprehensive, factually accurate, stable and well-constructed with no redlinks. It is also similar to List of Arsenal F.C. players and List of Liverpool F.C. players, both of which are featured. Thaurisil 03:54, 21 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

  • The source for this isn't clear. One of the references appears to be a dead link. Guettarda 04:05, 21 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I have clarified the references. None of the references are dead links. Red11.org does have several periods of downtime, but it is not a dead link. Thaurisil 04:43, 21 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support Everything that can be included is included. Regarding the references: I have seen Red11.org working just fine in December 2006. As a last resort, the Wayback Machine can help verify all the facts. :) Great job, Thaurisil. --Crzycheetah 05:31, 21 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support - All looks fine for me. Perhaps the "various" positions could be changed to their actual positions, as the field's quite wide, but that's a minor thing. HornetMike 10:32, 24 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support Maybe the <br />'s could be removed from the career dates of players who had more than one spell at the club to make the table more uniform? But that's pedantic. SteveO 23:34, 25 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I've tried doing this. For the career dates of players such as Richard Smith, there is no change whether the <br /> is there or not. For the career dates of players such as Joseph Cassidy, removing the <br /> causes the first line to read "1893, 1895–", and the second line to read "1900", which is more untidy than if the <br /> is left there. Thanks for the comment anyway! Thaurisil 14:10, 26 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support for sure, with one comment: is there a free image in any of the biographies, where the image is of a person who is notable for their Man Utd contributions? Eg. maybe "first player to reach 100 games", "first captain" (if he's on the list), "most successful captain", "player and then coach of Man Utd" etc. If there is, it'll make the right-hand-side of the lead look better :) Cheers, but support nevertheless, Daniel.Bryant 11:57, 26 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for your comment, images have been added by Oldelpaso. Thaurisil 08:46, 28 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
