Discipline

edit

I have removed the untidy and cluttered notes and numbers added to the standing box for Group B. Each Group has their own page with a Discipline box at the bottom for Fair play points and notes. Which are there to help easy understanding of Group stage tiebreakers.

It is unhelpful if editors cherry pick one match and is inconsistent with present editing guides after the 2022 FIFA World Cup. Pauseypaul (talk) 14:17, 21 July 2023 (UTC)Reply

Template wrong

edit

I think New Zealand should be listed in second place, above the Philippines, based on goal difference. The template is not placing them in the correct order. Dkreisst (talk) 07:58, 25 July 2023 (UTC)Reply

Can we fix the women's template (as I think the men's might now be fixed) so we don't make potentially false statements about who will advance?

edit

We claimed that Germany was advancing to the group stage. We didn't know that was true, and now it turns out that it was false. It violated CRYSTAL regardless. Can we change the template to not list teams as advancing until they actually advance? Every world cup this is a problem, but once the knockout stage is over it's ignored until the next cup. I know that soccer fans understand that the claims are false, but not everyone who reads WP is a soccer fan, and may not know that they should ignore our claims. Regardless, as an encyclopedia we shouldn't be making knowingly false claims at all, even if it is the norm in sports circles. — kwami (talk) 19:41, 5 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
