In an attempt to put an end to what could become a slow and tedious edit war, why do you keep mentioning England's forfeited match to Zimbabwe at the 2003 WC in the tournament history section? It's for the final position of the team, not mentioning what happened in individual matches. Nev1 (talk) 21:28, 14 April 2009 (UTC)
Numbers
[edit]For numbers less than 10, the general rule is to write them out in letters. It is for that reason that I changed your edit at Manchester United F.C. to read "four League Cups" instead of "4 League Cups". Thanks. – PeeJay 00:12, 25 May 2010 (UTC)
Chelsea F.C. Honours Section
[edit]Please, stop editing the Honours section. It is correct how it is. Archibald Leitch (talk) 23:30, 27 May 2010 (UTC)

Please stop. If you continue to violate Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy by adding commentary and your personal analysis into articles, as you did to Crown Prosecution Service, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Leave it out, please. Rodhullandemu 16:59, 18 June 2010 (UTC)

Birmingham City Honours section
[edit]Hello, and thanks for trying to improve the Birmingham City F.C.#Honours section. Just to let you know that the reason it doesn't need League One as well as Third Division / Division Two for the 3rd-tier honours, is that they were runners-up in it when it was called Third Division, and won it when it was called Division Two, but they haven't played in it since it's been called League One. It's different from the 2nd-tier honours, which were won under all three names Second Division / Division One / The Championship. cheers, Struway2 (talk) 16:36, 28 February 2011 (UTC)
Celtic FC
[edit]Thank you for experimenting with the page Celtic F.C. on Wikipedia. Your test worked, and it has been reverted or removed as it is considered unconstructive.

[edit] Welcome to Wikipedia. At least one of your recent edits, such as the edit you made to Chelsea F.C., did not appear to be constructive and has been reverted or removed. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to Wikipedia, please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines. You can find information about these at the welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. If you only meant to make some test edits, please use the sandbox for that. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you may leave a message on my talk page. Thank you.

Club infoboxes
[edit]Hi, this is not the first time but I hope it is the last time you change the infobox without the season has ended. Until ALL matches has been played, no updates should be made. Please keep this in mind. Thank you. Qed237 (talk) 09:48, 21 May 2015 (UTC)
- I gave you a response at my talkpage, no changes shall be made until season is over and you keep doing these changes over last couple of weeks (even twice at Chelsea) is disruptive, which was the warning I gave. Qed237 (talk) 11:08, 22 May 2015 (UTC)
- Putting Arsenal as third is definately not good as they have not even secured 3rd place, but I will assume very good faith and remove the level3 warning this time. If this disruptive editing continues it will return together with a final warning. Please wait until season has ended. Qed237 (talk) 11:30, 22 May 2015 (UTC)
Disambiguation link notification for September 20
[edit]Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Northamptonshire County Cricket Club, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Gillette Cup. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Re: UEFA competitions

Major/minor competitions
[edit]Where did you get that definition from? I've never seen such a definition written down. If you have, I'd love to see it. – PeeJay 22:30, 29 May 2018 (UTC)
- It is quite clear the Community Shield is not a major competition. The Club World Cup is. The Uefa Super Cup is. The Community Shield is not. Only you seem to be disputing it?! Why? Vanity I'd say!! BRACK66 (talk) 00:18, 30 May 2018 (UTC)
- No need for the personal attack, fella. I'd just like you to substantiate your claims with something more than your own opinion. Personally, I would say the Super Cup and Club World Cup are also minor competitions, and removing those would further reduce the number of "major" trophies won by Alex Ferguson, so I'm not sure where vanity comes into the equation. It all comes down to a need for reliable sources to back up your assertions. You've been on Wikipedia for a while, so I'd have thought you'd know this. – PeeJay 11:14, 30 May 2018 (UTC)
- Maybe, but we'd need to find a source that backs up the idea of those competitions being major/minor. I would also recommend going into searching for such sources as something of a blank slate. Don't go into it hoping to find sources that back up your point, but look for sources, see what they say, and modify your view accordingly. – PeeJay 11:22, 30 May 2018 (UTC)

[edit]Honours won by club
[edit]Liverpool have 64 honours, as the Wikipedia article includes the League (Screensport) Super Cup and Sheriff of London Charity Shield as trophies. BRACK66 (talk) 11:43, 28 December 2019 (UTC)
- 18 leagues, 7 FA Cup, 8 League Cup, 15 Charity Shields, 1 Super Cup (=49), 6 European Cup, 3 Uefa Cup, 4 Uefa Super Cup (=13), 1 World Club Cup(=1). Total is therefore 49+13+1 = 63. Koncorde (talk) 12:08, 28 December 2019 (UTC)
- Sorry, just clicked what you are referring to. I have never seen the Sheriff of London Cup given parity with the other trophies before in any article or sources. Think the main article needs looking at. Koncorde (talk) 12:26, 28 December 2019 (UTC)

[edit]Well, for one thing, I'm not a moderator. Second, why do you think? The edit you made was not accurate as Manchester United and Liverpool are currently level on trophies won, at least for the next few weeks. – PeeJay 09:29, 17 May 2022 (UTC)
Not according to Wikipedia's own "Trophies won by club" article they aren't!! You might like to do your research!! BRACK66 (talk) 09:53, 17 May 2022 (UTC)
