[edit] Intro to wikipedia

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia!

Here are some tips to help you get started:

Good luck!
Jrdioko

P.S. One last helpful hint. To sign your posts like I did above (on talk pages, for example) use the '~' symbol. To insert just your name, type ~~~ (3 tildes), or, to insert your name and timestamp, use ~~~~ (4 tildes).


Welcome. Great nick. I assume your main purpose is to flip out and kill people, possibly also to wail on your guitar, but I hope you will also write some good articles.


P.S. Don't kill me.

[edit] Glasgow

Thanks for taking up the challenge to make Glasgow a more complete article Tiles 08:43, 19 Jul 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Work in progress

Hi. All Wikipedia articles are "works in progress". You shouldn't explcitly say "this article is work in progress" a stub notice is sufficient, nor should articles appear to look unfinished by having empty sections and italic comments. If you wish to leave comments regarding future additions to an article, you can either discuss it in the talk page or add HTML comments to an article that can be seen by an editor but not someome who has just causally browsed in.

[edit] Football culture

Hi. I'm sure listing the 10 points of fair play is perfectly okay. By all means make people who might be interested in the football culture page aware of it by bringing it up on talk:football (soccer). You might also want to ask those who have contributed to pages like football chant to have a look at the article. You can also mention it on the Village Pump and there is also a Wikipedia:Peer review page where you can make the same request. I'm trying to sort out the other issue. Thanks. Mintguy (T) 09:21, 25 Aug 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Tugay

Thank you very much for starting the article on Tugay. That was going to be one of the trickier ones on my tasklist. I just have to add the Naming:Technical Limitations tag and the article is set for now. Bobo192 22:34, 2 Jan 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Al-Ahly

Good work on this article. I have deleted the copyvio and replaced it with your version. - SimonP 21:59, Feb 11, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Charles Trevelyan

Hello. Unless I'm mistaken, you pasted the contents to Charles Edward Trevelyan. Please use the Move Page function, which keeps the Page History straight.

[edit] AJAX

I have just reverted your changes again to the AJAX article. The source of the term is written further down, and I don't believe that it is so important that it be described before the actual definition of tht term in the very first line. With regard to the supposed controversy some cites would be nice, and it could be in its own section with some substance, but I really believe the introductory paragraphs should be reserved for defining the actual term. --kjd 12:18, 29 Apr 2005 (UTC)


[edit] Threner

Thanks for your comments on the formations. Of course I do plan to tackle the classic formations, I just wanted to post some graphics before going on to see how they looked :D I did have some troubles with the layout, though, so I had to use html tables...

I used M$ Power Point to draw the images :D It could have been any vector program, such as Corel Draw, but in my work I found out that for simple graphics PowerPoint is more than enough. I also made a contribution to the FC Barcelona page regarding the most common formation during 2005. If you would like something like that for your favorite team, please let me know (names & formation) and I will more than happily draw it. --User:Threner 12;56 am, 25 May 2005 (CT)

[edit] CAF or African Champions League?

Hi, I'm putting together pages about World Cup 2010 and I created CAF Champions League. On the CAFOnline external site I saw no use of the phrase 'African Champions League,' nor at SAFA. Do you suppose the page should be concatenated to 'CAF Champions League'? Nice job on Al-Ahly. I think I created Egypt FA a few weeks ago, FYI.--McDogm 19:18, 27 May 2005 (UTC)

I don't know what the MTN is; I just took a list of teams and that was included; I was going to delete it anyway because I couldn't easily find it on the CAF site. If its important someone will add it to the Wiki page later on.--McDogm 21:09, 27 May 2005 (UTC)

OH, its Mobile Telephone Network in ZA. It was very easy to google.--McDogm 21:12, 27 May 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Raja Casablanca

Thanks for arranging and copyediting the article. I know I had to do that but I was a bit busy with other articles. Cheers -- Svest 20:43, May 28, 2005 (UTC) Wiki me up™

[edit] Category:Club teams in Women's football (soccer)

That has to be the worst named category I've ever seen :( What about Category:Women's football (soccer) clubs?

[edit] Akuma (mythology)

Hi ninja, could you specify from which work this character comes from? It would be helpful to mention the manga or anime title, for example, since various works often come up with their own "Japanese mythology" independently. —Tokek 3 July 2005 22:16 (UTC)

According to a Japanese dictionary, akuma is a word that can refer to Mara, a character in Buddhism from India, or Satan, a character in Christianity and Judaism from the Middle East, and not a character from a mythology originating in Japan. You've added the following description: "It has an enormous flaming head with eyes like coals. It flies through the air brandishing a sword. Even the sight of an akuma is said to bring bad luck" which you introduced during the process of moving content from one page to another. It did not exist in the main akuma page. From what work did you get this description? —Tokek 4 July 2005 06:23 (UTC)

[edit] Major football rivalries

You're probably right. One of us should just delete that section.

Besides that article, I'd like to know your opinion on the discussion at Talk:C.D. Chivas USA. It turns out that the couple of editors who do most of the editing on MLS aritcles have decided between themselves, with no publicity or discussion with other Wikipedia editors, that ALL American citizens in the MLS should have names without diacritics. This even includes those who were born in Mexico (e.g. Aarón López), but who now have US citizenship. BlankVerse 04:02, 28 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Birmingham riots 2005

One of the articles was one which I created but is now a redirect to the current article, the other was this one, I'm not sure if it's been merged or not. XYaAsehShalomX 17:01, 3 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Marco Zoro

Hi. I was in the middle of merging the info from Marco Andrè Kpolo Zoro to Marco Zoro when you merged it the opposite way. I think we should keep the information at Marco Zoro due to the shorter and more practical title. Punkmorten 21:28, 30 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Wikipedia:WikiProject Football/Article improvement drive

[edit] DYK

Updated DYK query Did you know? has been updated. A fact from the article HP LaserJet 4, which you recently nominated, has been featured in that section on the Main Page. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the "Did you know?" talk page.

[edit] More Football culture

Hey Mater of Ninja, i was just wondering why you removed the Tyne Wear derby from the ,Football culture page, i'm aware i had a bit of a daft reason for the change and that i apologise to all you wikipediacs for however although they aren't in the same city these two clubs still share a very fierce derbyness, Crabman123 21:01, 09 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Wikipedia talk:Notability (people)#Regarding notability of Football (soccer) players

Hi, seeing you are interested in football this is an invitation to contribute to this discussion to clarify certain issues about football player notability. I think clearer guidelines are needed to avoid repeated inappropriate nominations for deletion and time consuming discussions. Cheers! StephP 19:50, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Spam in Yankee Group

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Yankee Group, by 216.119.255.145 (talk · contribs), another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Yankee Group is blatant advertising for a company, product, group, service or person that would require a substantial rewrite in order to become an encyclopedia article.

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Yankee Group, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Please note, this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion, it did not nominate Yankee Group itself. Feel free to leave a message on the bot operator's talk page if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot. --Android Mouse Bot 2 18:51, 25 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Wiki Football Project - Scottish Task Force

Hi

I'm a new member to the group and noticed that there isn't a task force for Scottish Football and was wanting to know if you would be intrested in setting one up. Thanks Gorillamusic 23:08, 31 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] War of the Grail

Another editor has added the {{prod}} template to the article War of the Grail, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but the editor doesn't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and has explained why in the article (see also Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not and Wikipedia:Notability). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia or discuss the relevant issues at its talk page. If you remove the {{prod}} template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.
