Please include Will Grigg web game under "Will Grigg's on Fire" topic.

Here is a copywriting suggestion:

On 31 May 2016, Electro duo Blonde released a version of the song and entered the Charts and the iTunes top 10 songs.[61]. The chant also became a web game [1] where players have to score a goal to see Will Grigg set on fire and hear the song[2]. Revenues achieved both by song and game will be donated to Joseph's Goal[3], a charity that raises funds to research treatments for NKH[4].

References

Soccerbase refs

edit

The page Tammy Abraham has something new with the way the soccerbase refs were typed out which I thought is a better way of doing it.

The original version of this article Will Grigg originally contained the syntax <ref name="Games played by Will Grigg in 2016/2017">{{cite web |title=Games played by Will Grigg in 2016/2017 |url=http://www.soccerbase.com/players/player.sd?player_id=50818&season_id=146 |work=Soccerbase |publisher=Centurycomm |accessdate=4 September 2016}}</ref> which is the long way of typing in the reference.

The article Tammy Abraham has the syntax looking something like <ref name="soccerbase1516">{{soccerbase season|50818|2015|accessdate=21 June 2017}}</ref> which is much shorter in the code. The one provided above can be equilavent to <ref name="soccerbase1617">{{soccerbase season|50818|2016|accessdate=4 September 2016}}</ref> which by much relieved coincidence are exactly the same websites. Here 50818 would be the player ID and 2016 would be the year when the season they played has started.

Also I have noticed that in the soccerbase refs, the season ID's have gone 144, 145, then 149 which is a bit strange. Plus, I failed to notice that I made cite errors after submitting the most recent edit so that shall be corrected soon. 86.173.147.11 (talk) 21:12, 24 July 2017 (UTC)Reply

Orphaned references in Will Grigg

edit

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Will Grigg's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "soccerway":

  • From Lee Cattermole: "L. Cattermole". Soccerway. Retrieved 31 May 2017.
  • From Dean Henderson: "D. Henderson". Soccerway. Retrieved 26 December 2016.
  • From Aaron Hughes: "A. Hughes". Soccerway. Perform Group. Retrieved 9 January 2018.
  • From Jason McCarthy: "J. McCarthy: Profile". soccerway.com. Retrieved 27 December 2014.

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT 10:59, 5 April 2019 (UTC)Reply

Place of birth

edit

Does anyone have a source stating this person was born in England, and how did Will Grigg qualify for Northern Ireland national football team although he spends most of his football career in the former country? Are his parents from Northern Ireland?CuteDolphin712 (talk) 09:45, 28 December 2020 (UTC)Reply

@CuteDolphin712: - his place of birth was already cited in the article. I have added a sentence (with ref) about his eligibility to play for Northern Ireland -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 10:38, 18 January 2021 (UTC)Reply

Honours

edit

Not sure why his 2nd place/runner-up promotion with MK Dons was removed from the honours section. The editor that made the change mentioned it as 'non-notable'. All promotion honours should be notable. 2nd place in EFL League One also receives a trophy (trust me - use google image search) and promotion to the EFL Championship which is a considerable reward. Additionally - ALL club pages on wiki who have been promoted in 2nd place (Championship, L1, L2) or 3rd place (L2) all mention this in their respective honours sections - if it is notable for an entire club, then it is notable for an individual player. I have re-added the honour, please do not remove. If you do not feel it is noteworthy then please explain why it is not notable for a player but is for an entire club.
