Talk:The Fields of Anfield Road
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] Fields of Anfield Road viewed with contempt
User:FearSneachta expressed the following intent on my talk page: "I will continue to edit that page until the day comes when Liverpool fans respect the history of the song without ruining it." [1] Future unsourced edits from this user will be considered vandalism. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not a soap box for anyone to express their personal displeasure with Liverpool Football Club and/or their supporters. ~ smb 13:13, 24 May 2008 (UTC)
- An anonymous user, very possibly the aforementioned editor, continues to add unsourced statements to this page:
- "...this amended version of the The Fields of Athenry is particularly insensitive to the original version and is viewed with contempt by fans of the original version." [2] [3]
- This is a sweeping, unsourced statement that cannot be allowed to stand. It's also a tad ironic, since two Celtic-Liverpool supporters are responsible for writing it. ~ smb 17:25, 26 May 2008 (UTC)
No I sign all my statements and I don't even think this page warrants an article. There should me a mention of public opinion on the page as I know plenty of Liverpool fans who sing every song BUT this one when they go to anfield. FearSneachta (talk) 15:00, 30 May 2008 (UTC)
- That would be considered original research. Please familiarise yourself with Wikipedia rules and guidelines. Club specific songs are allowed here, but they are strictly limited and must pass notability. ~ smb 18:11, 30 May 2008 (UTC)
The song is not notable if that's the case. It is a terrace rip off of a real and meaningful song and a bad one at that. In that case there should be wikipedia documents for songs like "who ate all the pies" and "the referee's a w*&*er". FearSneachta (talk) 16:08, 3 June 2008 (UTC)
