Preposition
editIsn't the correct preposition to use before FIFA "with"? That's the convention used in the US, so I'm not sure using the construction "affiliated to" is common in Europe or not.--Prisencolinensinainciusol (talk) 03:07, 7 July 2014 (UTC)
- I would definitely use 'to' in this context. Not sure of the exact rule, but my thinking is that FIFA is the parent organisation and the associations are the subsidiaries, so the smaller organisation affilates to the larger. If it was two organisations of equal standing, I would say 'with' is more appropriate.Crowsus (talk) 21:12, 2 January 2017 (UTC)
