Happy editing! OffsBlink (talk) 20:36, 14 September 2020 (UTC)

Good night, I would like to request permission to edit Wikipedia, I am blocked, I am very willing to contribute, sorry if I did something wrong when asking for permission, I am not sure how it works properly to request it.

I'm autoreviewer and have more than 200.000 contributions on pt.wiki (Global account information). I guarantee that I will contribute positively here on en.wiki as well as I contribute on pt.wiki and I will follow the policies, including the prohibition against multiple accounts. Umberto Bottura (talk) 05:55, 31 August 2020 (UTC)

The user Umberto Bottura was blocked infinitely here at en.wiki, as you can see here: Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Umberto Bottura/Archive. At pt.wiki (his home wiki) he was not blocked endlessly, he was blocked for 1 month. So he went back to editing and has been doing a great job for many years and has behaved very well ever since (30 August 2020 — 8 years!). I'm sure that if he is unlocked here on en.wiki it will also do a great job, especially updating football related pages. I requested the blocking of Umberto Bottura in the past, but I believe that the indefinite block was unfair and now I see that he is contributing very well and has never caused any problems more. He has more than 200,000 contributions on pt.wiki and has received the status of autoreviewer without asking, since his editions are of good quality. I'm from pt.wiki and I guarantee that Umberto Bottura will contribute positively to the en.wiki and will follow the policies, just like he does on pt.wiki.

I've contacted another admin with some familiarity with the case for insight. (Courtesy ping to Mattythewhite to see this thread.) —C.Fred (talk) 01:50, 1 September 2020 (UTC)

Hi C.Fred. I saw that you posted a comment on Mattythewhite's user talk page and invited him to give his opinion on Umberto Bottura's user talk page. It's been over 10 days and he hasn't commented. But that's okay, he, like anyone, is not obliged to participate in the discussion. Anyway, my idea is that you invite another administrator to give your opinion or else unblock the user, considering that it will not be your decision alone, since I, who asked for his block in 2012, recognize the great work he has come performing on pt.wiki for many years and in addition to requesting his unlock, I guarantee he will do a good job here on en.wiki if he is unlocked. Thank you. OffsBlink (talk) 17:48, 13 September 2020 (UTC)

• I am going to forward the situation to the administrators' noticeboard to get input from other admins. —C.Fred (talk) 17:53, 13 September 2020 (UTC)

Unblocked

Dear Umberto,

Per Community consensus, you are unblocked with no additional restrictions on en-wiki.

Welcome back, and best of luck editing.

Yours, Nosebagbear (talk) 15:01, 14 September 2020 (UTC)

April 2021

Please do not add or change content, as you did at Kyle Walker, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Mattythewhite (talk) 18:14, 25 April 2021 (UTC)

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to add unsourced or poorly sourced content, as you did at John Stones, you may be blocked from editing. Content not supported by source. Mattythewhite (talk) 21:00, 25 April 2021 (UTC)

Brazilian players stats in infobox

Hi there. I've seen your edits (mainly in the Northeast-based teams) and I've noticed that you add the stats for those players in a wrong manner. Per WP:FOOTY/Players, the infobox should contain only stats from Campeonato Brasileiro (Série A, B, C or D) and the state leagues (Campeonato Paulista, Campeonato Carioca, Campeonato Baiano and so on). I know that you have some influence in the Portuguese-based WP, but please respect the guidelines here. Cheers, BRDude⁷⁰ (talk) 18:34, 13 May 2021 (UTC)

Since you didn't read what I've told you nearly two years ago, I've felt the need to endorse that: in Buiú (footballer, born 1996), you updated his stats incorrectly. Per WP:WPFCONSENSUS: 12 Série A matches in 2021, 3 matches and 1 goal in 2021 Cearense, 2 Série A matches in 2022, 1 Cearense match in 2023, which gives the grand totals of 18, not 24 as you've put there.

Please read and engage into a conversation, or else we will have to report your intentional disregard for the rules and compromises here. Thank you, BRDude⁷⁰ (talk) 03:39, 27 February 2023 (UTC)

Pela última vez, LEIA o que os usuários te mandam aqui. Já cansei de te mandar mensagens explicando como funciona a infobox ali, e você continua insistindo no erro, igual fez no Erick Pulga. Se eu ver mais um desses, você vai parar num ANI. Abraços, BRDude⁷⁰ (talk) 20:49, 29 March 2023 (UTC)

@GiantSnowman could you please help? Several warnings about the same issue so far, not a single effort to at least reply with something. Same mistakes have been made at Erick Pulga and so on. BRDude⁷⁰ (talk) 12:49, 26 November 2024 (UTC)

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you add unsourced material to Wikipedia, as you did at Template:Manchester United F.C. squad. Mattythewhite (talk) 22:20, 18 July 2021 (UTC)

Infobox timestamps

Hello, I'm Mattythewhite. Welcome to Wikipedia! I just wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions were not quite right. When updating statistics within the infobox of a footballer, please make sure you update the timestamp at the same time, so that both readers and fellow editors know when the information was last updated.

You can do this by replacing the existing timestamp within the |club-update= or |pcupdate= parameter for club stats, or the |nationalteam-update= or |ntupdate= parameter for international stats. For articles that use a DMY date format, use five tildes (~~~~~), or for MDY dates, use {{subst:mdytime}}. This will generate the specific time the update was made.

If you have any questions about this, feel free to leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you, Mattythewhite (talk) 23:51, 13 September 2021 (UTC)

Brobbey shirt nr. 18

Brian Brobbey wears shirt number 18. You clearly don't watch Ajax. It's also referenced in the main article, so don't change it again. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.249.116.15 (talk) 18:54, 16 January 2022 (UTC)

@Mattythewhite: User continues to add unsourced content and mess up player infoboxes, such as Geovane (footballer, born March 1999) and Patrick Brey. I've sent several messages here on #Brazilian players stats in infobox, but no engagement or change of attitude happened. Can you please help out?
