Your recent additions

Hello, and thanks for expanding the articles on some former Coventry players. However, perhaps you'd have a look at some of the pages linked in the welcome message above. The five pillars page says that the content we add to articles should be verifiable by reference to reliable published sources, not just our own opinion. There's no problem with saying the the 1977-78 Coventry side played attractive attacking football, so long as you add a link to published opinion (ideally from sources not associated with the club, and definitely not from fansites) that confirms it. But this is an encyclopedia, not a fansite or tribute page: using words like scintillating, mesmerising, wonderful, is going over the top. Please can you tone your additions down a bit, and add references to published sources. Otherwise I'm afraid they'll have to come out again. cheers, Struway2 (talk) 18:52, 24 December 2009 (UTC)
