Liverpool F.C. wiki edit

Hello, I am the lead sysop on the Liverpool F.C. wiki. It is a wiki dedicated solely to Liverpool F.C.. We aim to make the ultimate database for the club we all love. Since adopting the incredibly inactive wiki about a month ago we have greatly increased the article count and modernized it from it's previous state. The problem is there are not many active members on the site and we need more for the site to properly grow. It is well organized and on it's way to be a great site we just need more editors to expand. It is based on Wikia's network of wikis. Like Wikipedia it is free to use and the editing process is exactly the same. If you know how to edit Wikipedia you will know how to edit the Liverpool F.C. wiki. Now for the question you may be asking yourself. Why edit there? Wikipedia has articles on Liverpool. This is true. At the Liverpool wiki it is all about Liverpool. We allow editors to edit anything about Liverpool no matter how trivial. We allow edits on reserve and academy players, and even things as trivial as the fitness coaches for the year 2011. We also do not lock pages to registered users. That means if you have something to say about Steven Gerrard you can click edit and not view source and actually write something. I would love for you to come by and check the wiki out. Feel free to edit any page. Every time you click edit your ARE helping this wiki grow. Thanks for taking the time to read this! http://liverpoolfc.wikia.com/wiki/Liverpool_FC_Wiki--Coffeeclub213 (talk) 00:22, 8 July 2011 (UTC)Reply

Fred to stay in DC through July 20 edit

Please stop adding him to the Melbourne Heart roster until he is actually on the roster. He's playing in 2 days in Washington DC - that's July 20 - whereupon the teams will complete the transfer. I linked a source on the Heart Talk page, which you're welcome to review. Anyhow until then he is not on Melbourne Heart and should not be placed its roster. Thanks.

He played his final game on July 15 edit

He has been a Melbourne Heart player as of July 16, so fuck off and stop being a pain!

Friend, he's playing in Washington DC tomorrow night! I showed you the reliable source that says so. And, hey - be civil. JohnInDC (talk) 12:43, 19 July 2011 (UTC)Reply
Even Heart's own website doesn't show him on the roster yet - http://www.melbourneheartfc.com.au/default.aspx?s=aleague_team . Two days. It's not that long to wait. JohnInDC (talk) 12:51, 19 July 2011 (UTC)Reply
I thought I had put this link here but I see that it's only on the Melbourne Heart page, so for your convenience: http://www.dcunited.com/news/2011/07/training-notes-dallas-arrival . Thanks. JohnInDC (talk) 12:54, 19 July 2011 (UTC)Reply

Fred is an MHFC Player edit

If he were still a DC player why would DC United need to ask MHFC if he can participate? 'General Manager Dave Kasper made the request of Melbourne to allow Fred the opportunity to participate in Wednesday's home fixture against the New England Revolution.' He is virtually on a one game loan. And FYI, the 'Roster' hasn't been updated on the club website since August 2010.

That is the sort of point you should offer up *before* you undertake a series of undos, without either edit summaries or commentary. I'm going to edit the article per the Talk page, and please do not change it back. It'll be your edit war at that point. Thanks. JohnInDC (talk) 14:01, 19 July 2011 (UTC)Reply
Here incidentally is the current DC United roster (updated whenever there are changes - this one includes an acquisition just two days old) showing Fred. http://www.dcunited.com/club/first-team I am confident that on Thursday (US Thursday anyhow) he will no longer be listed. While you make an interesting point about this being a "one day loan", that's your own synthesis of the facts and not a proper basis for edits. JohnInDC (talk) 14:23, 19 July 2011 (UTC)Reply

use show preview edit

  Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. Regarding your edits to 2011–12 Melbourne Heart season, it is recommended that you use the preview button before you save; this helps you find any errors you have made, reduces edit conflicts, and prevents clogging up recent changes and the page history. Thank you. — Limabeans 04:17, 20 July 2011 (UTC)Reply

Gylfi Sigurdsson edit

Hi there! Just wanted to explain why I've reverted the Gylfi Sigurdsson page to say he has not yet signed for Swansea- as things stand, he has not completed a medical and therefore has not signed for the club. The article on Football Gossip you referred to (http://www.footballgossip.org.uk/index.php/2012/06/02/liverpool-transfer-news-and-rumours-saturday-2-june/) does actually say this too.
