Braulio Nóbrega

Hi there Matty, how's it going?

Serious serious stuff in this person's article: four times, if i have counted it well, people from Malaysia, Uruguay and India (there goes the "one perpetrator" theory!) have removed, without one word in summary, the PERSONAL section of contents.

Yes it is highly contentious stuff what is written there, that is why it is duly referenced (mind you, I'm not going all WP:OWN and defending my work solely, if was not even i who inserted the bit in the first place, i merely expanded it and ref'd it), and these vandals have no consideration whatsoever for other people's work, they seem to say "Sod off, i don't want these kind of things to be written about my favourite player (or player in favourite team), i removed them, period!"

What is your view on this, please? I think it is encyclopedical and worth keeping if: 1 - it is sourced (it is); 2 - it is written neutrally (i think i tried my best to accomplish that), but you'll be the ultimate judge of course. Page protection or something mate, i'm losing it and that's an understatement (here i don't think it's a case of persecution, just vandalism). If you, on the other hand, think we could do without it, well remove away my man, but i don't think the other persons' actions are being very fair to say the least.

Attentively, keep it up --AL (talk) 02:15, 11 February 2014 (UTC)

Karl Robinson

Hi, I'm Dogid. I appreciate you noticed that my changes to Karl Robinson were not cited. However, for the same sort of managerial history table, they are not cited on pages such as Alex Ferguson and José Mourinho. If they are not cited on more well known pages like those, why should those pages be getting away without citation of the same thing? Hope to hear from you. Cheers.

Re: Karl Robinson

Hi, if it would be possible, I would like these managerial tables to be able to be put in place on the Wikipedia:WikiProject Football/Players (cited appropriately of course) as I find them useful and would be happy to do them for a lot of managers. If an agreement on this topic can be reached either way at WT:FOOTY it would be very much appreciated. Cheers, Dogid (talk) 21:12, 16 February 2014 (UTC)

I just checked each match report on the Conwy Borough website, looks like they haven't kept up to date on their stats.

Does not care to add the PC updates (see here https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Daniel_D%C3%ADaz&diff=595815317&oldid=594749883), i've talked with him in Spanish, so there's no excuse really, just another "talk to the hand" case i'm afraid.

On a related note, another IP extensively used by User:Bruno corinthiano (please see here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/186.225.12.69). Don't know why i keep reporting these as you blocked the first two addresses i showed you, but the following six or seven before this one, even though they showed the same level of disruption, were not punished in any way.

I do my duty of course (report the sick vandal), do not have any right to show you how to do yours. Attentively --AL (talk) 00:08, 18 February 2014 (UTC)

Hi there again fellow WP user,

now you got me all mixed up mate, you have already replied to me about Braulio's article, and told me (as now) you had watchlisted it. Ah, and no need for any apology, you most certainly have other things to do outside WP, unlike me who seem to have no life outside this space unfortunately.

Matty, if you want me to stop bothering you about this because: 1 - it's too much work for you and you want me to bother someone else; 2 - you feel as me it's a lost battle, please do say so, i'll stop immediately.

"Ngizofa nayo" (Zulu for, "I will die with it"

Matthew, I give up with the sock puppets. I'm telling the truth, the truth and nothing else but the truth. At first I told myself it would take a while before you guys eventually catch me but I knew some day I would. I am too devoted to expanding South Africa soccer just to give up. Since August I have contributed 150+ articles but I lost count with all the sock puppets. Take this as the last straw. Monitor my every move for 2 weeks and if I add unsourced material (I use to do it unintentionally and I can recall you warning and blocking me about unsourced material for updating statistics and international goals) If I break any of the rules. You will ban me and I will never return even though that thought makes me wanna cry. I'm saying all of this because an article of yours being deleted is very heartbreaking and frustrating. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ngizofa nayo (talk • contribs) 18:33, 19 February 2014 (UTC)

Cádiz CF

Not vandalism now man, finally :)

I think this'll only take you a few minutes, if not don't bother or ask someone else if you please... In the FORMER MANAGERS section of this club, the following happened: someone added it, with the title FAMOUS MANAGERS (thus implying all managers at the club had been famous!), i removed it. Later, thinking i had no business removing it, reinstated it but with the more accurate header.

Problem is, the display is horrible now (column leaning to the right of the screen). Can it be fixed? I think it can, just don't know how. Cheerio, and thanks in advance (to you or the user who fixes it) --AL (talk) 16:06, 20 February 2014 (UTC)

Technical doubt

Matty, i'm having a bit of a trouble with the following:

I know it's common practice in English sporting language to say (for example) "a 3-1 loss". But isn't it just as correct to say "1-3 loss", with "home" and "away" indicating where the given match was played? Kind of hard to grasp, me not being a native and all :(

Thanks in advance, happy weekend --AL (talk) 04:20, 21 February 2014 (UTC)

  • In Portugal it's 50%-50%, let's put it this way. But please focus on this question mate: if i write in an English article "X team lost 1-3 at home", can you sincerely tell me English readers will not understand what on earth i am referring to?

March 2014 GAN Backlog Drive

It's that time again! Starting on March 1, there will be another GAN Backlog Drive! There will be several changes compared to previous drives:

  • This drive will introduce a new component to it; a point system. In a nutshell, older nominations are worth more points than newer nominations. The top 3 participants who have the points will be awarded the Golden, Silver, or Bronze Wikipedia Puzzle Piece Trophy, respectively.
  • Unlike the December 2013 Backlog Drive, earning an additional barnstar if you reached your goal has been removed.
  • The allowance to have insufficient reviews has been lowered to 2 before being disqualified.
  • An exception to the rule that all reviews must be completed before the deadline has been created.

Also, something that I thought I would share with all of you is that we raised $20.88 (USD) for the WMF in the December 2013 drive. It may not sound like a lot but considering that that was raised just because we reviewed articles, I would say that's pretty good! With that success, pledges can be made for the upcoming drive if you wish.

More info regarding the drive and full descriptions regarding the changes to this drive can be found on the the drive page. If you have any questions, feel free to leave a message on the drive talk page.

I look forward to your participation and hope that because of it, some day the backlog will be gone!

New address of the vandal (please see here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/186.225.12.250), he continues with the same M.O. In an unrelated matter, why can't you clear my language doubt (if to say "1-3 home loss" is completely wrong or at least acceptable)?

Hello, I respect your decision to delete my edit. You are more experienced so could you add my edit back in but do it with the appropriate sources to verify the information. I would like this info to be shown on Frank Lampard's Wikipedia page but I need help. I got his Chelsea assist statistics from http://espnfc.com/player/_/id/8941/frank-lampard?cc=5739 Please could you help me with the changes I tried to make and add the full extent of information and abbreviations for Wikipedia.

Matty, how's it going?

Without further ado: 1 - is this guy (child better said) notable? Last time i checked, being a youth international as best achievement does not confer notability am i correct?

2 - have you got any updates for me (in case you have done it, of course) on the range-block request for User:Bruno corinthiano?

Range block

Range blocks can cause a lot of collateral damage, so they're only used in extreme circumstances. Whatever IPs you see, tag with {{IPsock|Umberto Bottura}} so we can populate Category:Wikipedia sockpuppets of Umberto Bottura, and get a better idea of how many IP addresses will be affected. Diannaa (talk · contribs) was extremely helpful with range blocks when dealing with Zombie433, they might be able to provide better advice. GiantSnowman 19:26, 2 March 2014 (UTC)

Negredo - Reply

Hi there,

regarding my changes, which i see are not well accepted, i elaborate: the header should be changed (not just Negredo's of course, ALL) to just STATISTICS (with the CLUB and INTERNATIONAL sub-sections), of course those statistics refer to his career, what else? Why needlessly enlarge the header? I think this should be proposed/discussed.

Secondly, i only saw the "as of match played" bit inserted in ONE article of the MILLIONS i have seen here, in Gerard Deulofeu, and i thought it was the user going against the grain as we discussed here (https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Spc_21&diff=586719538&oldid=585287083). Why different now? Unless you mean it's not OK to write "as of match played" in the infobox, but it is so to write it in the charts we find below in articles. If so, why the different "treatment"? I'm puzzled...

Kind regards --AL (talk) 22:23, 3 March 2014 (UTC)

Old "friend"?

This guy, which you reverted in Carles Puyol, hails from Norway (see here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/139.98.2.55), so it's quite (very quite!) probable he's the anon "user" (with a vast array of IPs to top it) who does the following: removes B-clubs (or C's, in Puyol's case) and youth national teams, just because.

Can't remember in what IP and due to what action, because it's been a long time (nearly two years at least), but he was inclusively warned in Norwegian by a fellow user just so we could be safe, well you can see the result of that advice...

Festus Agu

More! I don't know what the hell am i doing (retirement or not, that's irrelevant for the case at hand), since it's physically impossible to monitor all the articles at WP (in our case all the football-related ones) without sleeping, and "me like" to sleep...

Situation is: this article has been repeatedly destroyed, with a guy (Agu himself? Could be, but again it's irrelevant) screwing up the entire storyline just so he can add mambo-jambo about his career in law, without one reference of course. I left the article in peace for one or two years (and should have for good, hence my reference to the impossibility of monitoring everything), and what do i find upon returning?

This new account (the others are User:Rockystriker, User:Gangling, this new account Onyegwu also pulled the same stunt in early JANUARY 2011, and he also "dances" with IPs) took it up a notch, REMVOVING the football-related external links (see here https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Festus_Agu&diff=next&oldid=582244376). I stand corrected, he removed links AND refs (https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Festus_Agu&diff=next&oldid=582247157)!!

1 - that's a given, inflates stats in box, just what he did in Daniel N'Gom Kome was a dead giveaway. I would block immediately (this type of "users" are not welcome here i assume, and they reform very rarely), but of course you know best (it's this person https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/78.179.18.89).

2 - don't know if it's him, the name most certainly has no relation, but he changes stats in Greek football(ers) and, like the sock, cannot change updates/write a summary to save his life (please see here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/Trabakdelacua).

Ryan Giggs page reversions.

Hi, matty i saw you reverted the changes i made on the Ryan Giggs page, i assumed it might be because you didnt know what i had edited eg. skewing the stats or i was a rival fan placing something derogatory in there etc.

So i redid my edit this time leaving an explanation thinking i was being helpful only to find its been reverted again, its such a small thing but it sticks out like a sore thumb and im a bit OCD like that.

Every year is listed in one format except for one:

1996-97 1997-98 1998-99 1999-2000 2000-01 2001-02 2002-03

See what i mean?

Is there a reason why this one year needs to have more digits than the others?

Would appreciate it if you could spare the time to explain this one to me because im stumped.

Cheers

RE: Ryan Giggs page

Hi, matty thanks for taking the time to explain that, fair enough i can see why it is like that then.

Though having said that would it not then be the 2000-2001 season which spans two centuries?

1999 & 2000 are both in the 20th century or am i missing something obvious?

Another who falls in love with the subject...

In this case, Hernâni Neves, "user" from Canada (i suspect a Portuguese immigrant in that country, there are there by the thousands) has removed twice the information that he was suspended for doping. He could have had some further sources we did not know about and he wanted to share them with us, but no siree! He removed the info summarily, no words written, "My boy Hernâni would never be caught in that web, only the other players", "booh oohh" (please see here https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Hern%C3%A2ni_Neves&diff=592485965&oldid=575145821)...

He went as far as to change the title of the website from where i retrieved the info, VEDETA OU MARRETA, a site where the career of a given player at S.L. Benfica is presented and then the people who have an account there reach their verdict on whether the player was a star ("vedeta") or a complete flop ("marreta"). Well, our Canadian little vandal "corrected" the site's title to just VEDETA, "No negative words will be associated with my man Hernâni", "sob, sob". Getting as annoying as it gets man, i will leave on 12 JULY 2014 never to enter the site again (it will always be too much of a temptation) that's a certainty, until then you and the rest can ask whatever you want from me, i will help to the best of my abilities for sure!

  • This decision of me leaving and never entering again has nothing to do with the great people i've met here, nor is it related to the overall idea i have about the site (wonderful concept), it's just it's a never-ending job, and i: 1 - don't feel up to the task; 2 - as much as i feel i am a positive editor overall, i can't/won't abide by most of the guidelines, so that's a negative aspect right there. Overall i think i'm very welcome here, but my mind is made. --AL (talk) 17:05, 19 March 2014 (UTC)
(talk page stalker) @Always Learning: With respect, I don't think a random "Star or flop" blog is a remotely appropriate source for that material under the BLP policy, and I'll remove the sentence accordingly. I obviously have no problem with it going back in with a reliable source. cheers, Struway2 (talk) 17:30, 19 March 2014 (UTC)

Since there are NONE available in Portuguese media (Record (newspaper) has stuff going back to 1999 but that's it, i'll try it there nonetheless), i guess true info is again removed from articles. Oh well, that's another reason why i'm leaving, but i TOTALLY understand where you (and WP in general)'re coming from. Cheers --AL (talk) 19:37, 19 March 2014 (UTC)

Here's the latest by this utter idiot, and i'm complimenting him (please see here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/186.225.12.236)! On a related note, what are the updates you can fill me in on regarding the possibility of a range-block? This is getting ridiculous to the fullest, and i repeat i think this may be one of those cases of merely turning off your computer and, voilá, you have a new IP, this imbecile is toying with us!

Keep it up, cheers --AL (talk) 00:53, 24 March 2014 (UTC)

  • I am fully aware that G.Snowman told you last month or so about the potential collateral damage of a range-block, was just wondering if there were any further updates, that is all. Thanks again in advance --AL (talk) 00:56, 24 March 2014 (UTC)

Since this "user" operates a great deal in Spanish football, i think i "catch" the vast majority of them. Cannot swear we have them all, obviously, especially with that M.O. i fear he is using ("turn on", "turn off"). --AL (talk) 01:36, 24 March 2014 (UTC)

(some)Apologies maybe in order to you and Diannaa, i don't think it was ever proven that that IP starting with 177 is Corinthiano/Bottura, all his IPs start with 186 (maybe i'm making a mess with all these reports and all these vandals after eight years, both hail from the SANTA CATARINA state but from different cities). But we have A LOT, THOUSANDS of the latter, so it's no excuse and it's disruption, vandalism or whatever you call it no? --AL (talk) 19:41, 25 March 2014 (UTC)

  • Newsflash: i don't mean this in a negative way, but she (i suppose DIANNAA is a female user, if not then my bad) seems to have sided with the vandal, no range-block will occur in spite of Bottura's idiocy/stubbornness/incompetence (one of the three - if not ALL! - for sure). I give up, will suffer through this a further two 1/2 months, then i could not care less, tried my best (as did you, undoubtedly). Cheers --AL (talk) 23:26, 25 March 2014 (UTC)

William Carvalho

I don't know if it was the Basque vandal that has been persecuting me, but several stuff was removed once again in box, as were all references to his loan to Cercle Brugge K.S.V. (in both box and storyline!). I did not go through the trouble of checking the edit history just to know it, because i'm absolutely seething!

Another reason to be very upset: player has been heavily linked with a move to Manchester United and, as many many (MANY!) times in the past, what happens? Article could not be bothered with one edit in months, and now vandalism's afoot, with the punks writing charmers like "He also said fuck to Manchester City".

User:Juanmartinlavagna

Don't know why, but took the time again (in SPANISH, lest there are any doubts) to explain him, with an example, how the PC/NT update works. Let's see how he will respond, or if he will (i have an history of being ignored by the vast majority of users, vandals or not, but i'll admit i sometimes go "over the top" in my approach, even though i ALWAYS apologize for my shortcomings). If he does, let's see if i will also be told to "go make love to myself".

On a related note: 1 - i checked his other account, User:Juanmlavagna, seems to have been "abandoned"; 2 - when i was (deservingly) blocked for disruptive edit summaries, four years ago or so, i recall having received several messages telling me to tone it down, but i never received the proper (escalating) warnings, was blocked without them (please see here https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Always_Learning&diff=next&oldid=423965011). I thought it did not work that way and now, after this "person" tells you to fuck off and with the history he has (several blocks), why do you let him go now with a slap on the wrist? Again, not trying to tell you how to do your job, just curious.

PC "updates" / Technicalities

1 - two more that can't seem to write a PC update to save their lives, one has been fairly warned, the other has been tipped off in his (mine) mothertongue, both seem to say "talk to the hand" (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:178.166.58.15 and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Smecherashukristyano)... Let's see if you have better luck reaching out, i doubt it.

2 - once a competition has been established in storyline and linked (i.e. Copa del Rey), can't we just say "Spanish Cup" or "domestic cup" in subsequent instances? Am not saying it's wrong to write "Copa del Rey" always from the encyclopedical standpoint, but my approach is not wrong either is it?

Thanks in advance, cheers --AL (talk) 15:58, 3 April 2014 (UTC)

  • And vandalism rampant still in William Carvalho, a vomitting "user" has gone as far as calling him an "ugly ass black", undoubtedly a City fan who now hates a person he has never seen! Page protection maybe, for one measly week? --AL (talk) 16:03, 3 April 2014 (UTC)

Now edits anon, has started to PC update but removing the hours and leaving the UTC (thus leaving an manual-automatic hybrid update, here he "is" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/190.105.50.157), i will message him and leave the rest to your attention.

Cheerio --AL (talk) 17:57, 4 April 2014 (UTC)

Oops, did not check the geolocate, but i only see Argentine players being edited, nothing else. Could be that Mr.Lavagna is an Argentine Boca fan living in the States, not that far-fetched.

I had already messaged him before receiving your "letter", if you think i should remove it (not because i swore or threatened there, i did not, i can translate it to you if you want, but to avoid misunderstandings) tell me and i will. --AL (talk) 18:17, 4 April 2014 (UTC)

Juan, with the anon IP mentioned above, seems to have understood the basics of the PC update, but i merited no words of feedback whatsoever (well, better that than being told to "go make love to myself"!). Regarding Umberto/Bruno, well here's another one we missed (please see here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/186.225.12.183). Cheers --AL (talk) 21:03, 7 April 2014 (UTC)

PC updates / Disbelief

1 - let's try it one more time (don't know if he's absent-minded - happens to the best of us - or he's downright teasing us, would like it very much for the first option to be the correct one)? Here's his action (https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Charles_Dias_de_Oliveira&diff=prev&oldid=602823048), which i have already corrected;

2 - what the hey?! He breathes hatred between cities and/or clubs and he's proud of it (check it out https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Mattythewhite/Archive_22&diff=596070221&oldid=594732185), he was even "clever" (quotation marks intentional!) enough to place his bit in the related message i sent you, so he knew very well what he was doing. Seeing that 3-YEAR blocks for anon IPs are feasible but i know that you're more lenient, can't you at least please make this punk rest for a few weeks?

Three months to go, and counting... Cheers --AL (talk) 01:52, 8 April 2014 (UTC)

And this guy which i have stumbled upon (please see here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/114.79.0.31), don't know if he's including stats for all competitions in box - thus making his stuff "good-faith" - or he's just a vandal, but he's altering them big time, example in Hélder Postiga. --AL (talk) 13:58, 8 April 2014 (UTC)

Jonathan Soriano

A user who you have already warned on another matter, BIGSHOW, has proceed to add the incomplete and unref'd statistics chart i had earlier removed. Seems he is a fan of Red Bull Salzburg, hence ONLY his team matters and appears in the chart! I find it unfair, unencyclopedical (no ref) and biased, what is your view?

Maybe you can have someone else have a look at this, i don't think it's fair to have you look at all these situations, your workload must be UNBELIEVABLE.

2012 Football League Cup Final

I'm pretty sure the flags should be historically accurate, i.e. the nationality the player had at the time the game was played. For example, despite playing for Italy later in the year, Rodrigo Possebon was still technically Brazilian when he was selected for the 2009 Football League Cup Final, so he has the Brazilian flag next to his name. I believe the appropriate guideline is at MOS:FLAG under the header "Use historical flags in contexts where the difference matters". – PeeJay 15:50, 13 April 2014 (UTC)

Nevertheless, it doesn't make sense (at least not to me) to refer to Rudy Gestede as a Beninois player when he was more closely affiliated to France at the time of the game. – PeeJay 16:12, 13 April 2014 (UTC)

Hi there MATTY, AL "here",

i am curious as to why this guy's IP was blocked too, now that he had understood (and undertaken!) the PC update M.O. Was it because of the uncivility in his account? If it was, i side with you 100% If it's any other reason, i repeat, i am curious.

In another matter (a lighter one), do you root for any team other than York City? In your country, i am hoping that Liverpool gets the title, if not i'll have to "choose" the "money-driven" Man.City, anything so that The Arrogant One does not win (people in Portugal, if you don't like him or this other guy, will call you traitor as the nicest thing; well, i may be Portuguese but i am not blind)... Other than that, i don't support any club fiercely, if anything have a penchant towards Athletic Bilbao.

If you read the template for the warning, that was precisely what was thought of my actions, i ask for your assistance mainly because i only met utter silence after explaining myself, maybe something i wrote was not thoroughly understood.

Impossible to happen but it happens, one punk has been giving hell (sheer incompetence or trying to push my buttons!) at Luis Rubiales, doing the following: get the ES.WIKI entry text into the English version, put google translator to work and...voilà! A horrible piece of incomprehensible language! To top it, all the refs are removed.

Did it several times with several IPs, so much it led to the article being protected for ONE YEAR (! see here https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Luis_Rubiales&diff=546085740&oldid=546044454). Now, the punk returns with an account, and has proceeded to do the same, now he was "kind" enough not to remove all refs, removed "only" three!

I know the article can be reprotected for one year at least (because it has!), but i have a hunch you won't be going for that option. Hope to be in the wrong of course, cheers anyway you analyse it. --AL (talk) 02:50, 21 April 2014 (UTC)

one of the last times i actually care what this piece of garbage does here on WP, but unfortunately for him still not THE LAST! Here is the last IP i found (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/186.225.6.205).

Happy week, cheers --AL (talk) 22:44, 27 April 2014 (UTC)

Don't worry, it wasn't experimental, it was a legit edit. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.131.149.183 (talk) 00:45, 28 April 2014 (UTC)

Tito Vilanova

Matty, could you please fix the reference in this article that bears the title "Tito Vilanova: Barcelona manager steps down through ill health"? I seem to have screwed its display, look and look and do not find the glitch. Problem is glitch has also "destroyed" the manager stats box.

I think it will only take you a minute or so. Thanks in advance very much, happy weekend --AL (talk) 17:10, 2 May 2014 (UTC)

Re: Revert

Hi, I realize that now I was a bit too fast, but I still think it is better to wait until season is over or even more IP will come and change league as well. QED237 (talk) 13:29, 3 May 2014 (UTC)

Twilight Zone Wikipedia version

Matty please,

any idea as to why this message is not displaying in the user's page after i sent it (please see here https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Tangerines&diff=next&oldid=596718090)? Cosmic... :)

Regarding Vilanova's page glitch, i see it only took you some quotation marks to fix it, but how come the other doubled refs in that article don't have any and they work just fine? Can you please explain that to me? Cheers --AL (talk) 17:07, 3 May 2014 (UTC)

Diego Poyet

I see you have labelled my minor edit of Diego Poyet's birth date as 'disruptive' despite the fact that I am correct. His birthday is 8 April and this is verified on numerous CAFC official pages and Diego himself. Soccerbase.com etc are incorrect. Please dont label me as disruptive again. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mjc216 (talk • contribs) 21:22, 3 May 2014 (UTC)

Ricardo Pereira

Hello Mattythewhite, I have been editing the Portugal national football team and its' players for a long period of time now, and according to every source, Ricardo Pereira has been capped 79 times. Please refer to the Portuguese Football Federation Page in regards to this matter. http://www.fpf.pt/Sele%C3%A7%C3%B5es/Futebol/Masculino/Sele%C3%A7%C3%A3o-A/Jogadores , click on todos os jogadores and there you will see the official amount of times every player has been capped.

Regards,
