Lede section is outdated edit

The new WP:FOOTBALL guideline stopped mentioning players since the mega-RfC that brought it to its demise. I tried to update the lead here (diff) and got reverted with a "nope" (diff). GiantSnowman, care to elaborate? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pilaz (talkcontribs)

Because your edit does not align with the context of the discussions that led to the entries on this page, and saying otherwise is both unhelpful and inaccurate? The lede can be updated once we have consensus about NFOOTBALL, but picking out the one bone that's left from the carcass and saying "Ok this is Fido now" isn't good logic.

The RFC and closure seem contentious and divisive and it's implementation is still being discussed, so we can wait a bit to see what settles down before updating this sub-sub-page. --SuperJew (talk) 06:40, 10 March 2022 (UTC)Reply
This can no longer be ignored, since it is being cited incorrectly by people not aware of the change. I have removed incorrect sentences from the lead. agtx 17:16, 3 May 2022 (UTC)Reply

Scottish Championship vs Fiji Premier League edit

Yes, I know this page is historical (even though very well sourced page still can be helpful for many things on Wikipdias or eventually creatling new article "list of association football lkeagues) but I would like to ask why according to this page Fiji is fully proffestional since 20's, meanwhile Scottish second tier is not since 20's? I can not believe. Is anyone who has sources how much earn respectivelly football players in second tier in Scotland and how much at Fiji? Dawid2009 (talk) 12:08, 3 September 2022 (UTC)Reply

According to the sources provided, the Scottish championship had a non-professional team join in 19-20, meaning they are not fully professional after that season. Conversely, the Fiji league began to be fully professional in 2020. Alyo (chat·edits) 15:45, 3 September 2022 (UTC)Reply

Sri Lanka Super League edit

Why there is Sri Lanka Champions League but not Sri Lanka Super League on the list? Dawid2009 (talk) 12:30, 3 September 2022 (UTC)Reply

Probably because the Champions League was added before 2018, when the Super League was formed. Alyo (chat·edits) 15:46, 3 September 2022 (UTC)Reply

Iraq Stars League edit

The first professional league season is established in Iraq, in cooperation with La Liga. Surely this is the right moment to include Iraq in the list of professional leagues right?

The page is no longer relevant anyway and has been deprecated following an RfC which resulted in notability of football players being decided soley by WP:GNG. --SuperJew (talk) 09:25, 22 October 2023 (UTC)Reply
