Cutting and pasting from Google Translate

While this may sometimes be a useful tool to get a broad understanding, it is not sufficiently reliable for inclusion directly into articles, as you did here from this. RashersTierney (talk) 21:50, 27 May 2013 (UTC)Reply

see Talk:Transnistria about Republica Moldovenească Nistreană --217.19.208.101 (talk) 12:02, 16 June 2013 (UTC)Reply

Yes, basically vandalism

Don't make large changes without an actual reliable source, like you've been doing the last couple hours. And even if you have a real source, the text you write needs to make sense. Ratemonth (talk) 23:16, 27 May 2013 (UTC)Reply

Sheriff Edits

edit

Please stop adding back unreferenced content about friendly / rival clubs and those ridiculously long "famous players" sections. All content should be sourced to reliable references and any "Famous players sections" should have clear inclusion criteria stating why the players are there. random lists of foreingers are not helpful, and constitute original research.

  • I have the criterion. Read the article carefully. Stop your vandalism. It degrades the article. Alas, I live in Dubossary. Yesterday came into direct contact with the player of FC Sheriff. Even current squad was is not true in the article. --217.19.208.106 (talk) 13:10, 18 June 2013 (UTC)Reply
I'm sorry to say but you don't have any criterion at all. References to the National Football teams page and a section of the FC Sheriff website are not clear inclusion criteria. Firstly the NFT page is simply a listing of players who have played for the club and also at some point in their careers been capped internationally. Simply being capped, particularly when it may well have been before or after they played for Sheriff does not inherently make them notable players for the club. The fact that this produces a long list should also indicate that they are not notable within the club simply because they have been capped as there are so many of them. Players are also not simply notable because they are foreign. The second reference to the FC Sheriff page is just a potted history of the club, rather than an official hall of fame or something. Simply because a player is mentioned here does not mean they are notable within the club either. It would be much better if they were mentioned within the body of the article rather than just in a long list of players. It would be much better for such a section to start with comments along these lines: "This section contains a list of players who have played more than x times (where I would adivse x to be a number greater than 100) or scored more than y goals (where y is a number greater than 100 for a career or 20 for a season)". there is no fixed criteria needed, you are free to come up with your own, but they must be there and they must be clear enough that they do not lead to a huge list of players, otherwise the list is simply your opinion of who is notable, is therefore original research and should be removed.
Regarding the rivalries / friendly clubs section, this is completely unreferenced and is therefore OR as well. You mention in your comment above that some things aren't true. Unfortunately, Wikipedia is not about truth, but about verifiability. As such all content needs to be referenced to reliable sources and where it is not it can be challenged and removed.
I don't want to get involved in an edit war here, so if you have any issues with what I have said, please go to WT:FOOTY and start a thread where we can gather consensus on the matter. Additionally, you may want to open an account rather than editing from an IP as it will make it easier to discuss matters and it would be very good to have an editor who is able to knowledgably contribute to articles on Moldovan and Transneistrian football.
