Performance by city

User Eldumpo is keep reverting the edits on Performance by city with the claim of non citation, as mentioned before, this list is based on List of Champions which have two sources , what kind of additional citation does the list of Performance by city needs? UA3 (talk) 18:16, 21 August 2017 (UTC)

The first citation is not listing cities. In the second citation what is the second table (the one that starts 13, 13, 12) showing, as these numbers don't seem to be replicated in the article? Eldumpo (talk) 18:34, 21 August 2017 (UTC)

The city of each club is mentioned in club pages, most clubs bare the city name already. the second table in the second source link titled as "Participation Log" which reflect the number of times a club played in the competition. it's not replicated in the article because the this link have the last 13 years only in records.

Information needs to be directly cited at the source to be included i.e. there needs to be a list actually listing wins by city. Eldumpo (talk) 07:56, 25 August 2017 (UTC)

Going by this logic, we will have to remove all city based statistics from several other articles like: Serie A, Saudi Professional League, Qatar Stars League, UAE Arabian Gulf League and several others. The verifiability of this kind of lists are unlikely to be challenged, as they're based on what already mentioned or widely known by the readers. UA3 (talk) 08:27, 25 August 2017 (UTC)

Yes, anything not directly cited could be removed and challenged, but this discussion is not about other articles. The basis of Wikipedia is to include facts which are reported elsewhere and we should not be synthesising lists and data which are not displayed anywhere else.
