Talk:2017–18 Coupe de France preliminary rounds

Page size

This page is 655,564 bytes long, which is far too big. What's the best way to subdivide it? Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 20:41, 5 December 2018 (UTC)

Surely by each round but I haven't got around to doing it. Onetwothreeip (talk) 20:44, 5 December 2018 (UTC)

My first preference would be that the page stays together in one place. For the view count this page gets, it's a valuable resource for a small community only - especially once the season is over and the references get archived. Having to click around more than one page reduces the accessibility of the data for that community.

However, I appreciate wiki has guidelines, so if it is to be split up, I would recommend by region rather than by round. Splitting by round would give a First round page which would probably also be too long. So I would suggest one page for each region and one for overseas round. I'll put this on my to-do list and monitor this page for feedback. Cheers, Gricehead (talk) 11:48, 7 December 2018 (UTC)

It has 200 views in the last month, but we don't know how many of these people found the article useful. Splitting the article (and the others from the last few years) regionally would make sense, but that would be quite a lot of articles. Onetwothreeip (talk) 21:27, 7 December 2018 (UTC)

Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes rounds missing?

@HawkAussie: The results for Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region (prior to the sixth round) seem to have disappeared during your re-organisation of this article. I have the source offline from prior to the split, but I wanted to check you've not put them somewhere different to normal. I would expect to find them at 2017–18 Coupe de France Preliminary Rounds, Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes. Please advise. Cheers, Gricehead (talk) 14:21, 26 April 2021 (UTC)

@Gricehead: You would have to message @Dr Salvus: as he was one to remove that section not me. HawkAussie (talk) 11:03, 27 April 2021 (UTC)

@HawkAussie: my apologies. Should have spent longer looking at this history.

@Dr Salvus: in this edit you created 2017–18 Coupe de France Preliminary Rounds, Hauts-de-France. In your next edit you removed loads of data from the original article, including the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes rounds, which now don't seem to exist anywhere. I've been through the rest of your contributions and can't find an article you've created that might contain these rounds. Please can you fix this?

PS - you will probably have to get 2017–18 Coupe de France First Preliminary Round undeleted as part of the process, in order to recover the most up to date versions of the first round fixtures. Gricehead (talk) 11:24, 27 April 2021 (UTC)

@Gricehead and HawkAussie: I apologize. Now I've applied for undeletion Dr Salvus 12:54, 27 April 2021 (UTC)

Gricehead I've just created 2017–18 Coupe de France Preliminary Rounds, Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes. Dr Salvus 09:58, 28 April 2021 (UTC)

@Dr Salvus: Thankyou. Cheers, Gricehead (talk) 11:01, 28 April 2021 (UTC)

Occitanie

@Dr Salvus: Sorry to bring more bad news, but the third round of Occitanie is missing from 2017–18 Coupe de France Preliminary Rounds, Occitanie. It appears you have copied the fourth round twice, for both sub-regions. Cheers, Gricehead (talk) 18:37, 30 April 2021 (UTC)

@Gricehead: I've just fixed Dr Salvus 18:53, 30 April 2021 (UTC)
