Hello, I'm Mattythewhite. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Tomáš Rosický, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you.

Are you saying that you lack the competence to notice that my addition is in line with the existing, documented contest of the article? He was until the winter break with Sparta, played 14 times, scored thrice. Whoo are you???? Oalexander (talk) 23:23, 17 June 2016 (UTC)

November 2019

Hello, I'm Walter Görlitz. An edit that you recently made to FC Bayern Munich seemed to be a test and has been removed. If you want to practice editing, please use the sandbox. If you think a mistake was made, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. The formatting is wrong and is unexplained. Please go to the article's talk page to explain what you're trying to achieve so we can assist you. Walter Görlitz (talk) 06:36, 24 November 2019 (UTC)

@Walter Görlitz: Please inform in sufficient detail what part of the "formatting" was wrong. I have changed several figures and given reason on the edit line. It is unclear when the first logo, which came into being 1901 according to given- authoritative - source, fell into disuse and was replaced by one I outlined on the tal page under crest. Kindly Refrain from being condescending. Oalexander (talk) 06:46, 24 November 2019 (UTC)

I thought I did, sorry.

Your initial change was based in this explanation:"The green one is from when the club joined Jahn, The next one from 1925 is from independence, the one with the rhombes was introd 1954 s. "25 Jahre FC Bayern", p. 125". I wrote "incorrectly formatted and it's not clear why all of the changes were made if only one needed to be changed". Did you explain why you made the other changes? No. So what's "unjustified and poorly reasoned good faith edit". Date ranges use en-dashes, not hyphens. You changed "1900–1901" to "1901-". ignoring the lack of an en-dash, there was no end date. Was that intentional? Is that logo still in-use? You also changed "1920–1924" to "1919–1924", but that was unexplained (or was that the one that you explained?). It's also clearly against the file name itself which was "1906-1919". You changed "1923–1954" to "1925–1954", again the file name was "1923-1954", and again, why? You changed "1978–1996" to "1954–1996" with a file name indicating it was "1979-1996". SO WTF? Explain your changes in detail or stop editing. Walter Görlitz (talk) 06:56, 24 November 2019 (UTC)

@Walter Görlitz::The filenames are from where they were apparently sourced ("DWS-Wappen"). They are largely, but not always, nonsensical. Autoritative is the information I provided. I understand that thew filenames are confusing. Note also my contribs in the section Crest on Talk. The 1901 Logo was in use for a birf time before being replaced with one that lasted unti the joining with MSC in 1906. When exactly totes unknown, veiled behind the mist of history. For you a nice pic When Bayern captain Jakl Streitle and his ManCity counterpart Trautmann meet in Munich 1954. The pennant displays the new logo (note the "Y" - thats how you tell the difference to the successor logo) on a pennant in silver and red. Last use of silver in club history was on a balmy evening in Barcelona. It looked more grey than anyway. I might at some stage create a more narrative based Bayern-Logo section - provided I don't get always those idiotic tackles from behind. Replaces dashes as you like.

McPherson

Hi, I'm not 100% on what the title should be, but I would probably name it either James McPherson (football coach) or Jim McPherson (football coach), depending on what you found to be used more often. At first I was unsure if the 'coach' term would be sufficient for Wikipedia admin, certainly 'manager' is more common in titles but that doesn't really describe his role, although he was the 'main man' in most of his jobs apart from Newcastle. But I quickly came across Leonid Slutsky (football coach) so it appears that is OK to use as a term, as long as it's clear that the subject had a prominent role (as McPherson clearly did to anyone who would read the article) rather than just a minor backroom staff member as the name sometimes implies, more so in Britain than elsewhere. Crowsus (talk) 07:21, 10 September 2020 (UTC)

@Crowsus: There we go: James McPherson (football coach). Cheers, Oalexander (talk) 08:16, 10 September 2020 (UTC)

James McPherson (football coach) moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, James McPherson (football coach), does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. Onel5969 ^{TT me} 02:00, 12 November 2020 (UTC)

@ User:onel5969:Thank you for shortening the article. It looks more better so and more readers will like it beacause it is shorter. I will give you barnstar soon for proud display on your page, to respect and honour your contribution about knowledge worldwide. Greetz, Oalexander (talk) 06:23, 12 November 2020 (UTC)

I strongly disagree with this action. But what to do is take the links that are there and copy them as reference points on multiple occasions. Crowsus (talk) 02:20, 12 November 2020 (UTC)

@Crowsus: I personally think this is sick. It is a perfectly good article in an environment where meaningless stubs are the majority (I think, an article that does not contain all important information, should not be published, as it is contrary to reader expectations). But this is in line with what can be expected from a group psychological viewpoint, that an environment that has an uncontrolled ruling class and in general offers no rewards, people seek to get recognition for evermore radical rule interpretations. It is a way of dealing with frustrations experienced here and also their outside WP lives. Then you turn destructive. It also happens in general society, where people largely have to deal with diminishing returns and, according to their disposition, then express outrage on the woke or the populist side whenever they are given half a chance.

Theoretically, if one gets a complaint out, that happens to meet the right person, what has been done here is "disruptive editing", which is a punishable offence. I know this, because at some stage I have done the same like the guy above, and was banned for a day or two. There is more to that story, but it matters not. I have largely given up on doing much on WP:EN because the climate is the way it is. I have written the McPherson article largely for the Bayern clientele of WP:DE (where some colleagues kindly also chipped in), and, as I kind of also speak English, translated it and published it also here. Along the way, I found my co-operation with you very pleasant; knowledgeable people in search for more knowledge in a friendly exchange.

I will not act on this matter any further; for one I have done what was good and necessary. If I want to do academic work, I inscribe at one of the three Universities in my city and get myself a few more letters behind my name, which is useless, but some return other than aggro. Apart from this, I have no problem leading a fulfilling life w/out WP. And more so, if I'd give in to that destructivist, for one I am likely to encourage him to radicalise further. He feels then, that he has successfully lorded over someone. He spent half an hour to cut the article down. In the same time, any intelligent person could have, with the material provided, sorted out basically all issues that the article had in his mind. Apart from this, the article still carries some complaint sticker on top. Responding here would make me feel actually very cheap and dirty. And after all, it is only a "start class" article of "low importance", which is what one gets for quite a few hours, where one follows a many leads to dead ends in order to find some information on a few good leads. I really don't need it. There are so many books to be read, so many movies to be watched, and exciting discussions on YouTube, why would I need aggro?

My very best regards to you, and I am happy to once more express what a pleasure it was to cooperate with you. A nice flower on the wayside. Cheers, Oalexander (talk) 06:14, 12 November 2020 (UTC)

Many thanks for that, but I feel my input was very little other than having a look at the evidence you had collected regarding the McPhersons and agreed with it. I'm also kinda demotivated from restoring the information but if i get the time i will go through the removed paragraphs and specifically link them all to the Scots Football and particularly the Speed Raiders articles as they of course have all the information. But it won't be the most interesting task so will probably slip down my 'to do' list. In general there's still a lot about German football that could be improved on enwiki and i hope you will still want to take part. Not really sure why this article has been treated in this way but generally I have found the football admins to engage and discuss first unless it's an obvious pile of scheisse or a mistake.

Replaceable non-free use File:Gary Quested (SMH 1971).jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Gary Quested (SMH 1971).jpg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of non-free use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of non-free use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:

1. Go to the file description page and add the text {{Di-replaceable non-free use disputed|<your reason>}} below the original replaceable non-free use template, replacing <your reason> with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
2. On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification, per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. -- Marchjuly (talk) 05:56, 2 June 2023 (UTC)

You can use the edit summary field to explain your reasoning for an edit, or to provide a description of what the edit changes. Summaries save time for other editors and reduce the chances that your edit will be misunderstood. For some edits, an adequate summary may be quite brief.

The edit summary field looks like this:
