[edit] Games and Goals with Lyon

corect information can be found here : with Lyon in Ligue 1 (as as june 2006) : 156 games and 50 goals. Info box corrected accordingly Dingy 02:26, 26 June 2006 (UTC)

L'equipe agrees so I have taken the "disputed" tag off. ugen64 19:49, 3 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Free Kicks

Juninho never played for Internacional, so the information regarding Mauro Galvão is clearly incorrect. Was Mauro Galvão a coach at Vasco or Sport when Juninho played there? Zerologic 13:52, 31 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Games and Goals

Looks like someone has altered the appearances and goal stats for Lyon, as posts above indicate the true ones can be found on the official Lyon site, or that of L'Equipe.

I have translated the free-kick section from French Wikipedia to expand the section. Please feel free to proof-read/brush up/correct as you see fit.

[edit] Sydney FC

Whoever wrote about Juninho and Sydney Fc is mistaking him for Juninho Paulista. Don't allow this to be put back on.

[edit] Best free kick taker "of all time"

While Junior is, in my opinion, certainly one of the best free kick takers today, any statement that he is considered as such - much less considered to be the best "of all time" - needs to be referenced. I'm not leaving any such uncited statement up, especially given that the editor who added it has been vandalizing the articles of other prominent free kick takers. Feel free to re-add once there is a citation. --Sesameball 17:41, 27 September 2007 (UTC)

This statement has been repeatedly re-added after being removed by another editor. Please see Wikipedia:Verifiability, which explains wikipedia's policy: "material that is challenged or likely to be challenged should be attributed to a reliable, published source using an inline citation". Until this verification is made, the statement should not be re-added. --Sesameball 15:08, 28 September 2007 (UTC)

This page will not be unprotected until the anonymous/new editors learn how to play nice with others, and work towards consensus instead of making demands. SirFozzie 17:58, 8 October 2007 (UTC)

Same user also added an uncited reference that a video game gave him a "99 Free Kick Accuracy stat", whatever that means. What is the relevance of this, other than trivia? Is he saying this is a reliable reference?. Strike IMO. Alexf^{(Talk/Contribs)} 13:00, 13 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Citations needed

A lot of information was added last month in various edits that were completely unsourced. They have been tagged and no references have been added, so it's getting to be past time to remove them. I tried to find reliable independent sourcing for some of the claims but have been unsuccessful. Also, am unable to find the claimed L'Equipe source regarding the statistic it is attached to. Maybe someone can point me in the right direction. --Sesameball^Talk 06:30, 21 November 2007 (UTC)

I have removed several of the claims that remain uncited. Please re-add if sources are found. --Sesameball^Talk 00:21, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] 36 freekick goal claim

I'm willing to let this stand as cited. However, if people continue to pursue WP:OR by modifying the number as time goes on, I will return it to the original claim, which I found a citation for, of having scored "more than 30" freekicks. Let's try not to be silly. --Sesameball^Talk 02:34, 11 March 2008 (UTC)
