Squads edit

Best if you don't re-add the squad. You've show your incompetence and lack of any research assuming players are English because they play in England. Amadou Tangara is Ivorian, Adeyinka Cole is Nigerian, Nathan Campbell isn't Portugese, Lartey Sarpong - despite having a Wikipedia page isn't Portugese either. You also missed off the two of the only four players to have been signed this season. The rest aren't confirmed as you're clearly not aware, players not on a permanent contracts become free agents as of 1 June. You're showing exactly why this template doesn't work at this level, because of ignorance, a lack of any knowledge of and all round incompetence. RTB.

July 2017 edit

 

Your recent editing history shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

Re:Speedy deletion nomination of User:Saphina123/MTP edit

Hello, very nice to meet you. I saw you putting a speedy deletion of my draft page. Just to clarify the article is not in anyway a promotion nor a spam. The article is about a significantly notable album in Vietnam, and the article will also dealt fairly with the album's controversies of plagiarism tracks (you can check out a small part that I'm writing here).

I'm sorry if my writing style in the article made you think the page is commercialized, but please understand that it's still currently under construction. If the final draft in the future still make you unconvinced, you can still help the article be better in its writing.

Thank you and I hope you have a nice day. Saphina123 (talk) 10:30, 13 July 2017 (UTC)Reply

Subject of mass mailing: Women's Football / Soccer Task Force News: August 2017 edit

Women's Football / Soccer Task Force News: August 2017


Should the women's football task force become WikiProject: WOSO?

 

According to an op-ed in the recent Signpost, some editors think task forces and subgroups are dying in 2017.

What do you think about forming our own WikiProject separate from WP:FOOTY? There's an on-going discussion of the potential pros and cons on the task force talk page. Input is welcome.

Recent developments

New initiatives have been created for:

  • FA WSL (England's top-division league)
  • NCAA (American university teams, conferences, etc.)
  • W-League (Australia's top-division league)
Ongoing tournaments
Current and upcoming seasons for top-division leagues
Did you know?

While WP:FPL lists only two women's top-division leagues as notable due to its "fully professional" criteria, did you know you can create an article on any player in any league as long as the references meet WP:GNG guidelines? Make sure to tag the new article talk page with: {{WP Women's sport|footy=yes}}.

Have some new articles in mind or see some that need improvement? Add them to the Open Tasks page if you'd like and other editors may be able to help. Need tips, assistance, or resources from other WOSO editors? Leave a message on the task force talk page.

Thank you for your continued contributions to articles related to women's football / soccer (WOSO)!

Rollback granted edit

 

Hi NZ Footballs Conscience. After reviewing your request for "rollbacker", I have enabled rollback on your account. Keep in mind these things when going to use rollback:

  • Getting rollback is no more momentous than installing Twinkle.
  • Rollback should be used to revert clear cases of vandalism only, and not good faith edits.
  • Rollback should never be used to edit war.
  • If abused, rollback rights can be revoked.
  • Use common sense.

If you no longer want rollback, contact me and I'll remove it. Also, for some more information on how to use rollback, see Wikipedia:Administrators' guide/Rollback (even though you're not an admin). I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, but feel free to leave me a message on my talk page if you run into troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism. Happy editing! Swarm 06:59, 16 August 2017 (UTC)Reply

Side note about editing edit

It seems that on Draft:2017–18 New Zealand Football Championship, you based it off of the 2015–16 New Zealand Football Championship season. I would recommend in general to model new seasons off of the latest season, as that way you get all the most recent corrections and fixes. ;) --SuperJew (talk) 08:30, 15 September 2017 (UTC)Reply

Non-free image use of File:National Women's League.jpg edit

Hi NZ Footballs Conscience. The licensing of each image you see on Wikipedia is determined by it copyright status and not every image file you see on Wikipedia is licensed the same. Some files are licensed as public domain or licensed under a free licensed suitable for Wikipedia and these are often collectively referred to as "free images". Other files are licensed as non-free content because of their copyright status and these file are commonly referred to as "non-free images". Non-free image use is highly restricted and each use of a file such as Image:City of Montgomery Great Seal.png must satisfy Wikipedia's non-free image use policy.

There are various problems with using this file in 2016 National Women's League (New Zealand). The first one is WP:NFCC#10c, which says that a seperate specific non free use rationale needs to be provided for each use. This file is currently lacking such a rationale for the article in question, which means it can be removed per WP:NFCCE. The question then is whether it such a rationale can be written and I don't think that one can in this case. This is because of WP:NFCC#8, which requires that a particular non-free use significantly improve the reader's understanding to such a degree, that omitting the image would be detrimental to that understanding, and items 14 and 17 of WP:NFC#UUI. Item 14 states the logos used for perennial events (such as the logo for a professional sports league) are generally not allowed to be used in individual occurances of said events unless they are somehow specific to the particular year or season in question. The non-free use of the logo in National Women's League (New Zealand) seems fine since the logo is being used as the primary means of identification of the league and appears to be the branding choosen by the league to represent itself. The use in the individual season articles, however, is not so clear. Simply adding the main logo to the infobox of each season article because it is used in the main league article is almost certainly not going to be considered to comply with Wikipedia's non-free content use policy, unless there is something particular about the logo which ties it specifically into a particular season; for example, anniversary logos, commerative logos, change of sponsorship, etc. Item 17 basically states that reusing the logos of parent entities in the article of child entities is typically not allowed, but logos specific to the child entity may be used. The main league article would be considered to be the parent entity and the individual season articles would be considered child entities, so once again you're going to have to clearly establish that non-free use is justified if you want to use the logo in the 2016 article. The default is not to use the parent logo in the child entity's article simply because no child-entity-specific logo exists. In such cases, a link the parent article is typically considered sufficient per WP:NFCC#1 and item 6 of WP:NFC#UUI.

If you feel that the non-free use of the file in the article can be justified, then please provide the required non-free use rationale explaining how. The rationale needs to be specific enough to clearly show how (at least how you feel) the particular use meets all 10 non-free content criterion; in other words, simply copying-and-pasting a rationale for another use and changing the article parameter/name is typically not sufficient. Furthermore, providing a rationale is only 1 (actually only 1 part of 1 criterion) of the 10 criterion and does not in and of itself justify non-free use; the file's non-free use can still be discussed at WP:FFD or the file can be tagged with {{di-disputed fair use rationale}} if another editor feels the rationale is not valid.

If you have any questions about this, feel free to ask as WP:MCQ or WT:NFCC. -- Marchjuly (talk) 02:46, 15 September 2017 (UTC)Reply

Hi Marchjuly, thank you for taking the time to explain it too me, I'm afraid I really don't understand a lot of what is written there. I do know with the Male league equivalent New Zealand Football Championship that the logo is used by each season, is that incorrect for that as well or is somehow the logo there got different permissions. I do believe it would be good for the articles to have the logo associated with the competition on it.— Preceding unsigned comment added by NZ Footballs Conscience (talkcontribs) 11:55, 15 September 2017 (UTC)Reply
Sometimes you may come across a case of WP:OTHERIMAGE, but non-free image use is almost always required to be evaluated on an individual basis. The use of a similar image in a similar manner in a similar article is usually not a good way to try and justify non-free use. In this case, File:ISPS Handa Premiership logo.png is being used in New Zealand Football Championship and it does have a non-free use rationale for that particular use, but the file is not being used anywhere else. Maybe you are referring to another logo such as File:ASB-Premiership.png. That file was also being used without a proper rationale in some individual season articles, so I have removed it as well. -- Marchjuly (talk) 03:10, 15 September 2017 (UTC)Reply
Sorry yes I wasn't implying that I could use it for the NWL because the mens league does, I was wondering if it had some permission for it which if obviously didn't. Thank you for explaining to me. NZ Footballs Conscience(talk) 03:15, 15 September 2017 (UTC)Reply

Reverting for no reason edit

If you are going to undo edits that I have spent time and effort on, you need a much better reason than "removal of content". Unless, that is, there is a policy or guideline that somehow supports what you did. Is there? 95.145.130.78 (talk) 00:21, 22 September 2017 (UTC)Reply

Assuming good faith does not mean ignoring had faith. Undoing other people's work without bothering to explain why is an act of bad faith.

Phoenix keepers edit

Hey, do you know what is the status of Oliver Sail and Keegan Smith? I didn't see Sail on Phoenix's site, but he's meant to be on a two-year senior contract... it's weird that Smith started and Sail wasn't even in the line-up (unless he's injured or something?) And they both seem to be with the #30 guernsey. --SuperJew (talk) 07:13, 8 October 2017 (UTC)Reply

Hey, so it’s a VERY weird case that I’m still trying to find out more about SuperJew. Italiano is suppose to be our #1 with Sail our number #2. Keegan Smith doesn’t even have a professional contract and is part of the Wellington Phoenix academy. He was playing for Wellington United and the Nix as back up keeper in the ISPS Handa Premiership. For him to get the Start was quite out of the blue and as far as I know he isn’t on an actual contract with the Nix. NZFC(talk) 09:01, 8 October 2017 (UTC)Reply
Seems an IP has changed Sail's number to #20, but I have no clue where this info is from.. both Phoenix site and Ultimate A-League don't have Sail in the squad, while WorldFootball have him uncontracted, though I doubt that based on news such as this. --SuperJew (talk) 21:45, 8 October 2017 (UTC)Reply
Smith wore number 30 so will get that changed, as for contract that’s the weird one. How does it work in Australia if a player comes from the sides NYL team and plays for their first because that’s basically what has happen here. Smith plays for the reserve team but got a first team call up. NZFC(talk) 22:21, 8 October 2017 (UTC)Reply
I'm not sure exactly.. I know there is an option of promoting youth players to youth contracts on the senior team (or scholarship contracts), but I also know of past cases where youth-listed players played a few games for the senior team in the season, though usually when there were a lot of injuries and national call-ups. This case is really strange because it seems that both Italiano and Sail were cleared to play. I know that in footy (Aussie rules), rookies are restricted to a certain amount of senior games.
@J man708 and Matilda Maniac: Would one of you know more about the rules of youth players playing for the senior team? --SuperJew (talk) 22:46, 8 October 2017 (UTC)Reply

To Cite or Not To Cite, That Is The Question (I'm getting conflicting instructions here!) edit

Hi NZFC -- you've just requested that I stop citing entries on Day of the Year pages. Unfortunately, I am getting conflicting instructions on this topic. Last week, I began adding new entries to these pages, and I did NOT cite them, because I could clearly see (as you just pointed out) that names were linked to the originating articles, and therefore did not need to be cited.

However, I was stopped by an editor called Toddst1, who informed me that the formatting guidelines for Days of the Year pages had just recently changed. Due to these changes, all new entries are required to be cited directly. Toddst1 began deleting/reverting my uncited entries, which is why I began citing entries. You can see my discussion on Toddst1's talk page here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Toddst1#Sources_for_lists_of_articles....3F

So... can you please tell me: do I, or do I not, cite sources for new Days of the Year page entries? I'm getting quite tired of being told that I'm doing it wrong, and I would like one single solid answer so that I can start doing it right. Thanks, Alanna the Brave (talk)

Hi Alanna the Brave, thanks for your message, I wasnt' aware of any change. I will have a look into it myself and see if that is the case and if it is, I apologies for the conflicting messages. NZFC(talk) 00:22, 27 October 2017 (UTC)Reply

Stop Out page. edit

Just a heads up. I saw your comment "Removed original research that wasn't really related to the club. ".

Main image of Kim Jonghyun's article change edit

Hi. I'd like to ask if it's possible to change the main image of Kim Jonghyun's article to avoid bad judgement for those seeking mental health support and to avoid stigmatization of depression with this gloomy, hopeless, stern dark connotation. Aside from this issue, the image is not portraying the job of the artist. Considering that many other news sources can use the wikipedia image for future news and articles, it could lead to bad judgement about Jonghyun's mental state from those who don't know about his personality or work. I can not post images on mobile version of wiki, but If possible, I'd like to ask for some image taken in the event: Healing Story by Jonghyun - that happened on 19th of september in 2015.

BRD: reaching a consensus edit

Regarding your reversion to this entry:

A number of sources here list the relationship
— User:NZ Footballs Conscience 00:47, 29 December 2017 (UTC)

While it is true that a number of articles are cited, each of those articles cites the same original article---a Page Six gossip column which cites a single anonymous source. This runs contrary to wikipedia's policy for biographies of living persons, and its policy against tabloid sources. If you check those references, I believe you'll agree. Some of those references are quite clearly attempts to smear the subject (e.g. calling her "israel-hater"). Please reconsider the reversion.

thanks for the work you do and for your efforts on behalf of wikipedia! @GrosvenorMetro:, thanks for that information. I can't look at each reference properly now as I've left home for a few hours.

DUID article edit

Hello, I'm sorry if this is the wrong place to leave a msg? I'm not a pro at Wikipedia. I wrote the original article and titled it DUID when I was writing a law review article that was later published (I left the citation in the DUID article). With regard to the levels of metabolites used for drugs in the US, the values came from Department of Transportation adoption of numbers that the Dept of Health and Human Services adopted in response to the drug crisis perceived in the 1980s and under then President Regan. Here is the citation to the US Federal Register that explains the first adoption and how these values were determined to rule out people who simply have used drugs in the recent past. at page 164 These values were never initially meant to indicate intoxication. Because it is difficult to determine an objective standard of intoxication with all the illegal drugs, the states simply adopted these values. This is a logical problem and is the reason I wrote the law review article. There is a basic fairness violation in the per se framework of DUID absent a genuine and reasonable determination of metabolite levels that actually demonstrate intoxication to some degree and it should be stated as such in discussing the topic. It is perfectly acceptable to believe that since they are illegal, there should be a conviction, but it should be know that this is actually the case and not let people erroneously believe that it is like the alcohol standard. I am not skilled at wiki editing so I hope you might put it together? Please let me know if you'd like to discuss further. Thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Cdova (talkcontribs) 18:21, 4 January 2018 (UTC)Reply

It says he is going to be portrayed in the DPG movie by Reggie Noble, this is Redman from Wu Tang.

Hello! I am new to Pending Changes Reviewer and I apologize for my multiple edits on Brockhampton (band). It is past midnight here and I planned on making that my last edit but it is completely my fault for not checking other edits first. I just wanted to apologize to you for all the edits because you have a track record of editing on that page. If you have any tips for new Pending Changes editors I'm all ears!

The problem IP is how you have interacted with the community instead of the community itself. Wikipedia works by consensus and yet you have tried to bash people over the head with policy and other stuff exists. Other users have tried to explain to you multiple times how things are done and have warned you to take a break, yet I notice today you have continued and tried shopping with some else else. That is why you were reported by Barek to Administrators' noticeboard, your own behaviour here. Not because of me, not because of SlimVirgin or any other user but how you have continued this fight. You still haven't even learnt how to use talk pages properly and the way you write on them at the moment makes them looks like a mess. You still don't preview your edits before clicking on them resulting in numerous extra small edits for you to try and correct them. It is annoying and all I was doing was trying to help you with those pages. It has taken up way more time than I like. I'm going to let the outcome of the administrators noticeboard deal with it from now on and come back to those articles on Shearer and Morrison later. NZFC(talk) 22:25, 17 January 2018 (UTC)Reply

About cricket templates edit

Well. I noticed that you support football. And you mentioned Unless we are going to do one for every sport played at the stadium, there isn't much point just doing it for one. But those template does not support to every sport. I believe it's only cricket that display those options. I myself am a huge football fan. But I can't help it. So I suggest that we gonna keep that like every stadium that host international cricket matches. Thanks - Price Zero|talk 08:53, 13 February 2018 (UTC)Reply

Hey Price Zero, so I thought it was strange to have cricket on the article when it isn't really known as a cricket stadium, however I did some more research looking at other stadiums and it appears precedent is to have an extra cricket infobox on the page as well so have reverted my change. Sorry for the confusion, I have nothing against cricket despite what my name says.. :P. Just thought it looked weird but I'm happy for it to stay. NZFC(talk) 19:42, 13 February 2018 (UTC)Reply

Hello NZ Footballs Conscience,

I removed the date of birth which you had added using a BBC profile as a source. That profile cites the Wikipedia article as its source, which is circular referencing.

Women's Football / Soccer Task Force News: April 2018


 
Eniola Aluko of England (in white) and Jovana Mrkić (in red) of Montenegro, 2014

Hello WOSO editors! A few initiatives have been started with an emphasis on making more WOSO links blue (similar to the work that WikiProject Women in Red does) and filling in the gaps within various league, team, and player, etc. articles.

If you're interested in collaborating with others to make more links blue, take a look at the initiatives listed in the box below. Sign up at the bottom of an initiative page and help grow the lists, add potential references, resources, and create the articles ... or create your own initiative.

Did you know ...

WP:GNG takes precedence over WP:NFOOTY (which only includes the players in 1 active women's league)? Often times there is enough media coverage that meets WP:GNG or other notability guidelines. For more information, see WP:WOSO#Notability and be sure to tag the new article talk page with: {{WP Women's sport|footy=yes}}

Current and upcoming seasons for top-division leagues
Current season articles needing creation


Have some new articles in mind or see some that need improvement? Add them to the Open Tasks.

Has an article you worked on been nominated for deletion? See:

Want some tips, assistance, or resources from other WOSO editors?
Leave a message on the task force talk page.

Thank you for your continued contributions to articles related to women's football / soccer (WOSO)!

Hi Salvamar84, I understand the top teams are named Greenhithe Catimba and that is fine, but Wikipedia uses the actually name of the organisation and not the nickname. As per the news article you linked "In readiness for senior teams, the club also changed its name from Greenhithe Junior Football Club to Greenhithe Football Club in 2016.". What I would do for the page you have created is call it Greenhithe FC and have a sentence on the page stating the clubs first and reserve team are called Greenhithe Catimba or maybe the clubs nickname is Greenhithe Catimba and they are an amateur association football club in the suburb of Greenhithe, Auckland, New Zealand.

My edits edit

Hi. Please understand that my edits to the SHINee page were made out of respect to the deceased and to the remaining members of the group who wish to acknowledge SHINee as five. I have also edited the language of the page which implies SHINee never consisted of five members as that is inaccurate. Please allow this to stand, as I am only respecting the wishes of those closest to the deceased artist by ensuring that the image published in their name accurately reflects the group's view of themselves. Additionally, please allow this to stand because it most accurately represents the group in this past decade. Message me with any concerns, I'm still unsure how the communication here works.

"Sources" edit

Just a heads up but if you insisted that you go off sources, try actually extrapolating the information from the source.

There's not that much to disagree on when you actually reference the "sourced material". It's not subjective in the slightest, the wording of that "source" spells out it cannot establish the number it just quoted you. 2601:807:8100:D910:E15C:5934:3A41:68BC (talk) 03:36, 13 June 2018 (UTC)Reply

Lifegem Proof which includes patent with mentioned discrepancy. edit

You asked for evidence for the edits I included on Lifegem's page. Here is a summary of there patent with their claims and a expert in gemology as well as insurance breaking it down. The main thing to note is that on their patent they state they use sublimation which means CVP not HPHT. Sublimation or Chemical Vapor Deposition is not possible to form diamonds out of carbon ashes, it's only possible with HPHT, which they state is not used on their patent. In follow up the owners stated they actually do not handle the process, which is incorrectly stated on the wikipedia page.

http://cremationdiamondreport.com/lifegem2007.html

Please note I am writing this for you to consider families who are grieving and in sorrow who are being misled into thinking the diamonds are made from their relatives, even when that has not been proven or indicated anywhere. For the Lifegem page to exist it needs to contain factual information, it currently has no scientific articles or journals backing it's claim. In fact a quick visit to the talk section shows it is highly controversial page and others have pointed out the lack of due diligence from Wikipedia. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pformenti (talkcontribs) 03:13, 20 June 2018 (UTC)Reply

Other thing is you can put in a withdrawal request if you think the article shouldn't exist at all. NZFC(talk) 03:29, 20 June 2018 (UTC)Reply

NZFC, where do I put the withdraw request I see the code is withdrawal request. Do I just place it on the article, and should I mention the article with the relevant counterarguments. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pformenti (talkcontribs) 21:49, 20 June 2018 (UTC)Reply

Hi Pformenti, see WP:AFDHOW, which lays out the steps that you need to do. I can do it on your behalf but thought better coming from you as you can expand your reasoning and the article you have linked. NZFC(talk) 22:26, 20 June 2018 (UTC)Reply

Hi again, could you do it on my behalf and I can explain I read the instructions but I'm still a little unclear with the instructions. I'm very un-tech-savy. Thanks — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pformenti (talkcontribs) 22:31, 20 June 2018 (UTC)Reply

Tyler Boyd article date format edit

Hi,

I can perfectly understand your logic for reverting the date format. However, MoS guideline I followed in making my edits is the following (MOS:DATERET), quoted below:

  • If an article has evolved using predominantly one date format, this format should be used throughout the article, unless there are reasons for changing it based on strong national ties to the topic or consensus on the article's talk page.
  • The date format chosen in the first major contribution in the early stages of an article (i.e., the first non-stub version) should continue to be used, unless there is reason to change it based on strong national ties to the topic or consensus on the article's talk page.
  • Where an article has shown no clear sign of which format is used, the first person to insert a date is equivalent to "the first major contributor".

Currently, all three point to DMY, starting with the first date placed in the article (on 8 October 2012) and the majority of existing dates being DMY. That is why I made the edits that I made.

Assuming there is enough consensus to change the format ("strong national ties" being made somewhat more complicated due to dual citizenship), are you going to undertake the change of all the instances of DMY to MDY?

Again, I see your point entirely. But when I've done the same change that you did (and for the same reason), someone else reverted it for the reasons above. Therefore, I figured going with the existing format was the safest edit. Clearly, it's not a straightforward issue, no matter which way we go. ;)

Respectfully, 1980fast (talk) 23:26, 26 June 2019 (UTC)Reply

Hey 1980fast, thanks for bring it to my talk page. My thoughts on this was the article had already been changed from Tyler Boyd (Footballer) to Tyler Boyd (Soccer). Then some of the main dates that stick out are his goal ones. He never scored for NZ, so the only goals listed in the body of the article where is ones he just got with USA. It seem to me it made more sense to just use the MDY format there (and the rest of the article) because otherwise it will just be a case of reverting people that pop into the article who want to put their stamp on it by changing it to American style. I'm not overally fussed, but see his page going forward, having more ties and more information added as his USA career advances. NZFC(talk)(cont) 23:44, 26 June 2019 (UTC)Reply
Thanks, NZFC! I concur. Thanks for bringing consistency to the article. At the risk of telling you something you might already know, if you add the "use mdy dates" template at the top of the article, it will extend the format to the references, which will make the consistency complete. 1980fast (talk) 02:44, 28 June 2019 (UTC)Reply
Thanks, 1980fast I wasn't aware of that. Will remember it for future articles. NZFC(talk)(cont) 02:57, 28 June 2019 (UTC)Reply
You're welcome, NZFC. Keep up the good work! 1980fast (talk) 05:12, 28 June 2019 (UTC)Reply

Women's Football / Soccer Task Force News: July 2019 edit

Women's Football / Soccer Task Force News: July 2019


 
Opening ceremony of the 2019 FIFA Women's World Cup, Parc de Princes, Paris, June 7, 2019

Hello WOSO editors! What a 2019 FIFA Women's World Cup in France! There has been a lot of activity on tournament- and player-related Wikipedia articles with all of the worldwide coverage of the tournament and its players. Let's keep the momentum going.

WOMEN IN SPORTS EDIT-A-THON FOR JULY + AUGUST!

WikiProject Women in Red is focusing on Women in Sports during their edit-a-thon for July & August 2019.

Get all the info here: Wikipedia:WikiProject Women in Red/Meetup/126

Sign up and help fill in the gaps within various articles related to women's football / soccer - whether they be players, teams, leagues, historical, administrators, referees, etc. Every little bit helps. Be sure to tag your article talk pages with {{WIR-126}}.

These edit-a-thons are a great way to work with others to help bridge the gender gaps on Wikipedia. Thanks for your contributions!

Did you know...

WP:GNG takes precedence over WP:NFOOTY (which only includes the players in two currently active women's leagues)? Often times there is enough media coverage that meets WP:GNG or other notability guidelines. For more information, see WP:WOSO#Notability and be sure to tag the new article talk page with: {{WP Women's sport|footy=yes}}

Current and upcoming seasons for top-division leagues


Have some new articles in mind or see some that need improvement? Add them to the Open Tasks.

Was an article you worked on nominated for deletion? See:

Want some tips, assistance, or resources from other WOSO editors?
Leave a message on the task force talk page.

Thank you for your continued contributions to articles related to women's football / soccer (WOSO)!

OFC U23 Tournament ASSISTS edit

Hello NZFC!

I've been trying to add the assist ranking to the OFC U23 article but it's been deleted twice.

Well, I actually don't have a reliable source like Oceania Football Confederation official website. But I watched 5 times each goal in the championship to make this ranking so I can assure it's right.

You can do the same to check this list, if necessary. All goal videos are available on Youtube (highlights videos) or in MyCujoo (Full matches)

We have some groups to discuss football in Oceania with people from all over the world, if you interest just message me

Regards — Preceding unsigned comment added by Amadeu1997 (talkcontribs) 02:59, 8 October 2019 (UTC)Reply

Amadeu1997, unfortunately this is a common mistake with new editors. You can't add information to Wikipedia unless you have a reliable source, even if you know for sure that the information is correct, it would be counted as original research. The other issue you have is Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information/stats, so while statistics is interesting, Wikipedia isn't really the place for it and most articles don't include assists, only goal scorers for tournaments.
Sorry to be the bearer of bad news but it is good that you are editing here and have an area of interest that you want to contribute to. I recommend you check out Wikipedia Football as it is a great place for templates, resources and to ask questions. NZFC(talk)(cont) 04:36, 8 October 2019 (UTC)Reply

Thank you edit

...for stepping in to the situation of excessive reverting editing by the Texas teenager. Please keep an eye on these sitations? Because I am not editing as a registered editor, I am not well positioned to institute restraints to prevent disruptive editing. I will be happy if others can take such steps if they become necessary. An article in question is that of Evan O'Neill Kane, and my editing is very close to my professional expertise, and certainly has been undertaken with very great care. Cheers. 2601:246:C700:9B0:6D4C:597C:72AB:665E (talk) 22:06, 13 October 2019 (UTC)Reply

2601:246:C700:9B0:6D4C:597C:72AB:665E, I did notice they seem to be reverting IPs just because in some cases instead of actually checking if the edits are vandalism. Was going to keep an eye on it and if causes problems, maybe see where to report it. NZFC(talk)(cont) 22:13, 13 October 2019 (UTC)Reply

KYTV (TV) file edit

Hi NZFC. I'm sure you meant well, but the file had actually been provided with a non-free use rationale for the KYTV article before you made this edit. The rationale was added after the bot correctly removed the file but before you incorrectly removed it a second time. Perhaps you didn't notice this because you're using Twinkle, but it's easy to miss this type of thing if you actually don't take a look at the file's page to verify there's no rationale for the file's use. -- Marchjuly (talk) 10:52, 19 October 2019 (UTC)Reply

Marchjuly Thanks for your message. I did check the file but I obviously didn't scroll down the page far enough on my phone and thought it only had permissions to be used on a different article. Thanks for correcting my mistake! NZFC(talk)(cont) 11:09, 19 October 2019 (UTC)Reply
No biggie but the edit sum you left might possibly be taken the wrong way. -- Marchjuly (talk) 11:11, 19 October 2019 (UTC)Reply
Yeah for sure, got to watch my comments. Murphy Law that I ended up doing what I accused other editor of doing. NZFC(talk)(cont) 11:15, 19 October 2019 (UTC)Reply
In fairness to you, the other editor didn't leave an edit summary, which basically means they actually ended up kinda of doing what they mistakenly accused the bot operator of doing. -- Marchjuly (talk) 13:30, 19 October 2019 (UTC)Reply

Update on NCAA DI Tournament Team Names edit

As per the previous made edit with St. John's and St. Mary's, the team names are added with that in the official NCAA website on the bracket page. Following that, my belief was that they should have their state names next to their University Name, no matter if there is no other school with that name in Division I. — Preceding unsigned comment added by DrGearsKaktus1234 (talkcontribs) 19:07, 1 December 2019 (UTC)Reply

Sources needed for Days of the Year pages edit

I see you recently accepted a pending change to December 23 that did not include a direct source.

You're probably not aware of this change, but Days of the Year pages are no longer exempt from WP:V and direct sources are required for additions. For details see the content guideline and the WikiProject Days of the Year style guide. All new additions without references are now being either reverted on-sight or in some cases where the patroller is especially motivated, immediately sourced. I've gone ahead and un-accepted this edit and backed it out.

All the pages in the Days of the Year project have had pending changes protection turned on to prevent vandalism and further addition of entries without direct sources. As a pending changes patroller, please do not accept additions to day of year pages where no direct source has been provided on that day of year page. The burden to provide sources for additions to these pages is on the editor who adds or restores material to these pages. Thank you and please keep up your good work!

Hi Cassiopeia sorry this maybe my bad. So is Sherdog a more reliable source for information than the UFC website? And as I type that I think I see where I have gone wrong. He is an MMA fighter and the Sherdog website is the source for MMA fighters. Thank you for fixing that for me. NZFC(talk)(cont) 10:38, 20 August 2020 (UTC)Reply

AIV edit

I've blocked 138.0.116.11 per your report. Just a tip for AIV - admins patrolling it are not looking to do research, they're looking for obvious vandalism that needs a block now. When you get an editor like that where every individual edit looks reasonable on the face of it (Sure, Japan might be playing France. Sure, Kim Jong Un might be attending that event. Sure, Japan might be having a friendly against Nagoya Grampus) it's quite helpful if you can pick out an individual edit and explain briefly why it's specifically wrong or disruptive. If an admin at AIV can't (a) read your summary, (b) check the contributions, and (c) agree that it needs blocking within, say, 30 seconds, they're just going to move on. I just thought I'd mention this, as I actually saw your report this morning and just moved on because there was other, more clear and urgent, stuff to deal with. Cheers and keep up the good work. ~ mazca talk 19:59, 28 September 2020 (UTC)Reply

Page on osteoporosis. edit

The page on osteoporosis is wrong. However, I do not have any experience editing Wikipedia articles so when I cited my sources in the editing part I just put on the links. Still the studies clearly show that the current version is supporting a myth about dairy. However, my version was declined because of lack of sources. I guess the problem is I didn't edit the citations properly and the links alone are not enough.

Current version however has NO studies to back it up.

So if you can do a better job editing - please do - here is an article heavily backed up by studies showing that dairy is good for bone health and protein leading to acidosis is one of the dumbest myths ever: https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/is-dairy-good-for-your-bones

@Only in death: Thanks! I know I should be upset, but I find it kind of funny actually. This is the second time I've been attacked as a way to try to prove my editing of the article is bias, honestly had never heard of them before I came across the deletion discussion, and now I am just trying to stop the disruptive editing.NZFC(talk)(cont) 22:15, 27 January 2021 (UTC)Reply

Player statistics edit

Please refer to here for player's career statistics. Kingjeff (talk) 00:02, 8 February 2021 (UTC)Reply

I did, you will see I linked to the same thing before you did your edits on the article, when I moved the stats in the table and updated them. The loan stats get counted in the total of their home club. NZFC(talk)(cont) 00:15, 8 February 2021 (UTC)Reply
@Kingjeff: saying that, you are right it doesn't quite still look right. Do you think Bayern Munich should have its own bit with totals and then the Bayern Munich II seasons with the loan as another section? NZFC(talk)(cont) 00:18, 8 February 2021 (UTC)Reply
So hopefully you see other change I made, let me know if you think either works or you have a third idea? NZFC(talk)(cont) 00:26, 8 February 2021 (UTC)Reply
If you see the table at WikiProject Football/Players, you will see that, when loans are involved, it is not done in the order of seasons. Bayern Munich II should be immediately under Wellington Phoenix. Then after Bayern Munich II, should be Bayern Munich (His first team appearances and goals). After that, it ahould be 1. FC Nürnberg (loan). Any future move from the club should be shown after 1. FC Nürnberg (loan). Kingjeff (talk) 03:28, 8 February 2021 (UTC)Reply
KingJeff Ok think got it now but it looked weird without the total columns on your edit. Assume it'll look better when he gets another year added onto the table. Also for future reference, your initial message comes across as condescending. As if you had looked, you would have seen I mentioned the same link, you decided to tell me I was missing, in the edits before yours. Now if I'm reading it or doing it incorrectly as appears to be, you make no attempt to explain what was wrong and looking at your edit history, this appears to be common occurrence and a bit of a crusade for you. It's great you want to fix the tables and standardise them but you might need to think about how stuff reads to others when you're typing or you're going to put a lot of people off working with you. NZFC(talk)(cont) 03:56, 8 February 2021 (UTC)Reply
Linking a league more than once in the table is WP:OVERLINKing. Also, we don't add totals for single seasons or multiple, non-consecutive seasons with the same club. I've fixed that at Singh's article. Robby.is.on (talk) 10:40, 8 February 2021 (UTC)Reply
Kia ora Robby.is.on, thank you and sorry to KingJeff. Hadn't even thought/realised that I had left the linking in. Good to know about the single seasons or non-consecutive. Wasn't sure how it worked and what you've got was better than we both had. NZFC(talk)(cont) 10:51, 8 February 2021 (UTC)Reply

Denied edit on Discrimination against asexual people edit

Hi,

I see you denied the edit on Discrimination against asexual people.

The quote in the article:

Spaces designed for asexual people have also been known to internally discriminate based on age, and to centre on whiteness.

is inherently wrong, unless proper citation is given that proves otherwise. The cited Buzzfeed article makes no mention of "spaces designed for asexual people" as being ageist or racist, or centering on a specific race. Even if it were, which is not, it'd still be hardly any evidence to make such strong assumptions on the matter.

Quoting the possible source of contention:


Please, review this passage on the article, and take the proper measures. CapoFantasma97 (talk) 20:05, 21 March 2021 (UTC)Reply

Why do you keep wanting me blocked edit

I feel I do alot of good edits and correct mistakes. But you always want to get me blocked for something you don't like for some reason. Bigboy 691 (talk) 00:07, 14 April 2021 (UTC)Reply

Bigboy 691 You know what you are doing, you are adding deliberate errors into your edits. None of those needed the date change and you are aware that you are doing it.NZFC(talk)(cont) 00:16, 14 April 2021 (UTC)Reply
The stats I change are literally almost all correct and date so I don't see the problem if I'm being honest with you bro.
I'm not your bro, you are doing it deliberately, same as you did last time. Wikipedia uses a WP:MOS and you know better. Also remember to sign your comments.NZFC(talk)(cont) 00:21, 14 April 2021 (UTC)Reply

My bad man didn't mean to cause troubles I'm just trying to help update players stats and I feel I was doing it right but wasn't and I'm correcting my mistakes so if you could give me a chance without blocking again. Thanks

2021 New Zealand National League edit

Hello NZFC, I'm fairly new to editing on here and don't want to cause any troubles by making lots of mistakes. Just wondering what we are able to add to this page in terms of data. Are we able to add a fixtures/results table and top scorers for each of the regional leagues so long as we have the proper references? Just don't want to add stuff if it's not allowed to be there. (any feedback is appreciated as well) Cheers. Kezyfooty (talk) 04:30, 10 May 2021 (UTC)Reply

Hey Kezyfooty, happy to have another person helping out. Yes data is fine as long as we can source it and I think because the qualifying leagues are part of the whole season/competition, any information you can add will be welcomed. I was looking at completing a home/away table for each league as per my Sandbox here. Will need to do a Southern League article as well at some stage when we have enough to make one from the Mainland and FootballSouth competitions.NZFC(talk)(cont) 04:36, 10 May 2021 (UTC)Reply
Okay that's all good. I'll leave you to do the home/away tables and I'll look to do the top scorers at some point. Also, one more thing, would there be point in adding a league positions by each round, such as the one seen in the 2020–21 Scottish Premiership? Or is there not much point? Kezyfooty (talk) 05:01, 10 May 2021 (UTC)Reply
I thought about it myself but thought it might be too much information for the regional leagues and on the page. I find top goal scorer and head to head pretty interesting, but thought the position by round might be best for the championship phase. Saying that, if you want to add it (and its sourced), I'm happy for you to do it. NZFC(talk)(cont) 05:11, 10 May 2021 (UTC)Reply

New Zealand football league system edit

Hi — are you happy with the way the large table is displayed in New Zealand football league system? On my monitor, I have to scroll sideways to see the right half of it. Cheers, --DoubleGrazing (talk) 05:45, 26 June 2021 (UTC)Reply

Northern League Auckland teams edit

Hey NZFC, just thought I may as well explain why I had the Auckland map for the teams. Had just seen other league pages such as the Premier League and the National League and how they do it for the London clubs so thought it could be worth doing. Understand why you don't want it there and that's all good. Think having it for the National League Championship would be a good idea though. Kezyfooty (talk) 12:42, 1 July 2021 (UTC)Reply

Hey, @Kezyfooty: thanks for your message. I get that it is on other pages but with Auckland they were just all together it really didn't define anything. Think it'll look good when National Championship is going as it'll be across the whole country. I did try keep the second map but I couldn't get them both to work on the page and not leave a massive white space that you had to scroll past to get to the title winners section too. If you can figure out that, then I'm also fine for it to come back on. — NZFC(talk)(cont) 20:41, 1 July 2021 (UTC)Reply
All good NZFC. Yeah I'm sure there is a way of doing it but I couldn't sort it either, all sounds good though mate. Cheers Kezyfooty (talk) 01:18, 2 July 2021 (UTC)Reply

Regarding your reversion of my edit to "Template:2021 New Zealand National League" edit

Greetings and felicitations. I noticed that you reverted my edit to Template:2021 New Zealand National League. I grant you that I was lazy and did not create a proper reference, such as this one:

"Competitions: National League". New Zealand Football. Archived from the original on 19 July 2021. Retrieved 19 July 2021.

Note that I fudged the title of the page by adding "Competitions:", so that it is obvious to which of the topbar's menu items that is being used, and archived the current URL/page using the Wayback Machine's "Save Page Now" function.

I am puzzled by the lack of use of proper references, since otherwise the bare URLs are subject to link rot. Note that I had to use a different URL (https://www.nzfootball.co.nz/COMPETITIONS/Football/National-League) than the one (https://www.nzfootball.co.nz/COMPETITIONS/National-League) in the version of the article that you reverted because the current one redirects to the site's front page—i.e, the link has already rotted.

Just because some is "the way it's done here" doesn't mean that it is a good idea. I suggest that you be bold and change it—here's a reference template, completely filled out:

{{Cite web |title=Competitions: National League |url=https://www.nzfootball.co.nz/COMPETITIONS/Football/National-League |publisher=[[New Zealand Football]] |access-date=19 July 2021}}

Or at the very least let me change this example of it for you. —DocWatson42 (talk) 08:15, 19 July 2021 (UTC)Reply

Removing some areas on the University of Canterbury page edit

Hi NZFC I would just like to query on why you deleted the section on halls of residence at the University of Canterbury as well as student culture. Bothered were not advertising and were simply informative, this is similar to other University pages such as the University of Otago and Harvard. It seems you want to monitor and adminster the page to your standards but not contribute towards. Cheers MitchellMatchbox MitchellMatchbox (talk) 22:51, 21 July 2021 (UTC)Reply

Both* MitchellMatchbox (talk) 22:59, 21 July 2021 (UTC)Reply

MitchellMatchbox find me references then that don't use the university or hall of residence pages themselves because of WP:PRIMARY. Also just because WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS doesn't mean it is correct. People aren't coming to the Wikipedia page on the University to find out about the halls, they would go to the Uni page themselves. Also, I suggest if you don't like my edits, then you take it to the talk page and discuss it there. Gain consensus to put stuff back in but you will need references that aren't the university itself to really add some of it back. — NZFC(talk)(cont) 23:10, 21 July 2021 (UTC)Reply

Also why was the University Alumni page changed as well, I only altered the layout which is exactly the same as the Harvard University Alumni page. The Information put up about the halls was historical. Also what do you mean take it to the talk page... it hasn't been used for the last 4 years. MitchellMatchbox (talk) 23:16, 21 July 2021 (UTC)Reply

Again you are using other things exist, Harvard may do it that way, a lot of others don't. Why were those ones chosen as the most notable, what made them more notable that others? The talk page is there to be used, so anyone watching the page can comment. Others aren't going to see any discussion if you keep having it here.— NZFC(talk)(cont) 23:18, 21 July 2021 (UTC)Reply
