Stats in football players' infoboxes and update of career stats

edit

Hi.

When you update the stats in football players' infoboxes please remember that you should also update the timestamps as of when the stats are correct. This is done by updating |pcupdate= (or |club-update=) parameter when updating club appearances and goals, or |ntupdate= (or |nationalteam-update=) when updating national team appearances and goals. The easiest way to do this is to use five tildes, which automatically converts to the current time. For example |club-update=~~~~~.

When you update the career statistics please remember that you should also update that timestamp as well to a time when the stats are correct. This is done by manually updating the date above or below the statistics table. By doing this we show when the stats were last updated and it prevents other editors from accidentally updating the stats again.

This is done to show other editors when the stats were last updated and prevent them from accidentally updating the stats again, and also it shows readers that it has been updated.

Please keep this in mind. Thank you. Qed237 (talk) 16:11, 19 January 2016 (UTC)Reply

Please remember to update the time stamp. --Jaellee (talk) 17:48, 20 January 2016 (UTC)Reply

  Greetings. At least one of your recent edits, such as the edit you made to Jota (footballer), did not appear to be constructive and has been or will be reverted or removed. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to Wikipedia, please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines. You can find information about these at our welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. If you only meant to make some test edits, please use the sandbox for that. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you may leave a message on my talk page. Per #Stats in football players' infoboxes and update of career stats. Mattythewhite (talk) 15:11, 8 February 2016 (UTC)Reply

  Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Heurelho Gomes. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been or will be reverted or removed.

  • If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor then please discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page. Alternatively you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant notice boards.
  • If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, please seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive, until the dispute is resolved through consensus. Continuing to edit disruptively could result in loss of editing privileges. Per #Stats in football players' infoboxes and update of career stats. Mattythewhite (talk) 23:05, 8 February 2016 (UTC)Reply

  Please stop your disruptive editing, as you did at Juan Carlos Paredes. Your edits have been or will be reverted or removed.

Do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive until the dispute is resolved through consensus. Continuing to edit disruptively may result in your being blocked from editing. Per #Stats in football players' infoboxes and update of career stats. Mattythewhite (talk) 23:09, 8 February 2016 (UTC)Reply

  This is your only warning; if you vandalize Wikipedia again, as you did at Troy Deeney, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Per #Stats in football players' infoboxes and update of career stats. Mattythewhite (talk) 23:45, 8 February 2016 (UTC)Reply

 
You have been blocked from editing for a period of 31 hours for persistent disruptive editing. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions.

Live updates

edit

Hi.

Please do not update statistics or scores while a match is in progress. Instead, wait until the match has finished before updating. At WikiProject Football there is a consensus not to add live scores and also a consensus not to update any statistics while a match is in progress. Without live updates it is easier to avoid duplicate information and errors from being published on the article.

Please keep this in mind. Thank you. Qed237 (talk) 15:31, 13 February 2016 (UTC)Reply

Timestamps

edit

Please note that the timestamp should be a time AFTER the match was played. Qed237 (talk) 15:33, 13 February 2016 (UTC)Reply

  Please stop your disruptive editing. Your edits have been or will be reverted or removed.

Do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive until the dispute is resolved through consensus. Continuing to edit disruptively may result in your being blocked from editing.

Please listen to other editors.

You made four edits yesterday to the infoboxes of West Bromwich Albion players.

At two of the four - Craig Dawson and Craig Gardner - you got the stats wrong.

At Gardner, you also set the |club-update= correct-as-of date to a time before his latest match kicked off.

If you don't understand what you're doing wrong, please either ask for help or leave the infoboxes alone until you do understand.

Thank you for listening. Struway2 (talk) 10:46, 28 February 2016 (UTC)Reply

I've reverted you twice at the aforementioned article because of WP:FOOTY/Players. I would recommend reading there.
