Talk:Philippe Coutinho

About deletion

Philippe Coutinho became very well known in Brazil after Real Madrid tried to hire him when he was only 15. Now that he's 16, Internazionale bought him from Vasco. He got popular because of THIS EVENT. Doesn't it fit in the category People notable only for one event?

Even if Philippe Coutinho doesn't have any senior caps for Vasco, he has played and scored several times for his country at youth level. Could someone who knowd how to do it please create an "information box" like those in most other footballer articles? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.208.61.24 (talk) 15:24, 27 May 2009 (UTC)

Why does someone keep changing the article so it says that Coutinho hasn't played for Vasco? He made his debut last month you know. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.208.61.24 (talk) 22:25, 2 July 2009 (UTC)

Why this article says that he'll play for Real Madrid? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 189.103.108.101 (talk) 19:46, 23 July 2012 (UTC)

His profile picture needs to be updated to support his Liverpool career. (http://lfctillwedie.co.uk/home/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/HS+coutinho.jpg) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 94.8.199.16 (talk) 21:31, 29 January 2013 (UTC)

Correct spelling of first name

Does this man spell his first name "Philippe" or "Philipe"? WadeSimMiser (talk) 21:18, 6 August 2013 (UTC)

Comment from reviewer (17:07, 1 November 2013 (UTC))

Good question. I just reverted edits that had changed double-p to single-p, but assuming good faith. If you go to his website, the web address has one p, but the title at the top of the page has two p's. So I'll be darned if I know which one is correct. If someone can provide an unambiguous reliable source, go with it. Else I think we should leave it alone. StevenJ81 (talk) 17:07, 1 November 2013 (UTC)

ESPN and Sky Sports News spell his name with two p's, and they seem like they would be notable enough to me. [2] [3] Adamh4 (talk) 15:43, 2 May 2014 (UTC)

Appearance/Goals Box

Could someone with the know how please sort out the appearance box at the bottom. There is some sort of mess up around the Inter/Espanyol period with some of those stats being mixed — Preceding unsigned comment added by 105.225.42.252 (talk) 19:56, 6 October 2014 (UTC)

JMHamo's edits.

Hello, JMHamo, I would like to know why you are persistently reverting my edits. Coutinho's transfer has been officially annouced by FC Barcelona and he is an FC Barcelona player now. Kindly do not make any further edits, or I might have to approach the Wikipedia team. Tamish 37 (talk) 21:16, 6 January 2018 (UTC)

JMHamo is correct, because the transfer is not complete yet. See this. Mattythewhite (talk) 21:20, 6 January 2018 (UTC)

The transfer is subject to mandatory medical, however the signing has been confirmed by Barcelona. Tamish 37 (talk) 21:26, 6 January 2018 (UTC)

It was confirmed, but medical needs to be passed first. Not yet for me. JMHamo correct. pintert3 (talk) 23:03, 6 January 2018 (UTC)

@Nznsns: Pending medical. It's not officially completed yet. All sources are saying that he is "set to" join so far, which is exactly what it says in the article.. Nzd (talk) 10:59, 7 January 2018 (UTC)

It's official, it has come from both parties twitter account, Barcelonafc and Liverpool, if he eventually fails his medical you can always change it back which is likely impossible that he's going to fail Gabzibs (talk) 13:31, 7 January 2018 (UTC)

Gold Lock

This seems to be a good use of full edit protection as it has avoided a huge backlog of edit conflicts. This article should be used as an example for future major transfers. As edit conflicts on this article appears to be low as soon as the unveiling occurs the gold lock should be removed without delay. 141.241.26.20 (talk) 12:44, 8 January 2018 (UTC)

OK, he has been unveiled now. 141.241.26.20 (talk) 13:28, 8 January 2018 (UTC)

He signed the contract, update the page.8Dodo8 (talk · contribs) 14:02, 8 January 2018 (UTC)

This is one issue with the full protection. Updating the page after the conformation may be delayed for a while as it requires an administrator to make the change. I a page is gold locked their should be at least 1 administrator keeping an eye on the sources to update as soon as the unveiling is reliably confirmed (as it now has). I appreciate very little time has passed since the unveiling but the change really should be made soon, with the gold lock removed. 141.241.26.20 (talk) 14:06, 8 January 2018 (UTC)

I agree, you can't just lock the page and not keep an eye out for the transfer to be officialised.8Dodo8 (talk · contribs) 14:22, 8 January 2018 (UTC)

It now has been done - was reasonably quick but I just put the unveiling here so that the administrators were notified of the completed transfer. Thanks. 141.241.26.20 (talk) 14:36, 8 January 2018 (UTC)

Philippe Coutinho was part of the Liverpool squad that reached the UEFA Europa League final in the 2015-16 season , i suggest that information should be added to his honours section of the page 109.98.1.121 (talk) 16:22, 3 November 2022 (UTC)

Agree, as a handful of starting Liverpool players have this honour and he was a starter in that final, it makes sense that I have included that honour in the relevant section. Thanks for noticing that omission. Iggy (Swan) (Contribs) 21:26, 3 November 2022 (UTC)
