Football statistics

Hi! I noticed that you started to edit some articles about footballers. Your efforts are welcome, but you should know a couple things. First of all, appearances and goals in infoboxes refers only to the league, so national cups and european club competitions must not be included there; complete stats should be placed in the statistics section instead (for an example, look at the article about Alexander Merkel). Secondly, Dominic Adiyiah's stats were faked by a user named Zombie433 some time ago. This guy used to provide a lot of fake stats and he was eventually blocked from editing. However, some of these bad edits (including Adiyiah's 24 appearances and 11 goals for Heart of Lions) remained in place for long and spread across the net as if they were real... but they're not! If you have any question, feel free to contact me. Luxic (talk) 13:49, 17 May 2011 (UTC)

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Stats in football players's infoboxes

Hi, please remember to update also the pcupdate parameter when you are updating the stats in football players's infoboxes. Thanks. --Jaellee (talk) 16:00, 29 August 2011 (UTC)

As the user above has already told you, you should change the date parameter (pcupdate) when updating stats. Also, it would be nice if you answered when someone write you. Thanks. Luxic (talk) 09:56, 1 September 2011 (UTC)

Matt Lampson

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Matt Lampson, and it appears to include material copied directly from http://www.mlssoccer.com/news/article/2011/12/15/columbus-sign-gk-lampson-second-home-grown.

It is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. The article will be reviewed to determine if there are any copyright issues.

If substantial content is duplicated and it is not public domain or available under a compatible license, it will be deleted. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material. You may use such publications as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. See our copyright policy for further details. (If you own the copyright to the previously published content and wish to donate it, see Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials for the procedure.)

Speedy deletion nomination of Matt Lampson

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Matt Lampson requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a clear copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website but have permission from that owner, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

September 2012

Thanks for contributing the new article Frederico Rodrigues Santos. However, one of Wikipedia's core policies is that material must be verifiable, by being clearly attributed to reliable sources. Please help by adding more sources to the article you created, and/or by clarifying how the sources already given support the material (see here for how to do inline referencing). Many thanks! PS If you need any help, you can look at Help:Contents/Editing Wikipedia or ask at Wikipedia:New contributors' help page, or just ask me. Please do not continue to introduce unreferenced information - whether on existing articles, or creating new ones - as it could be considered disruptive. Regards, GiantSnowman 15:39, 9 September 2012 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Gabriel Araújo Carvalho

The article Gabriel Araújo Carvalho has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, this newly created biography of a living person will be deleted unless it has at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within seven days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one. AlanS (talk) 10:14, 5 August 2014 (UTC)

This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
