Oldest football player to have ever won a World Cup and oldest tennis player to have ever won a Grand Slam.

Who is the oldest football player (including goalkeepers) to have ever won a FIFA World Cup? Who is the oldest tennis player to have ever won a Grand Slam tournament? Thanks in advance. --190.19.29.74 (talk) 00:01, 12 February 2011 (UTC)

For Open era (after 1968) tennis, it looks like Ken Rosewall in 1972 at age 37y 2m 1d and Martina Navratilova at age 46 and 8 months in 2003. Rmhermen (talk) 00:37, 12 February 2011 (UTC)

And the oldest player to win the World Cup was in fact a goalkeeper: Dino Zoff. He was also the oldest player to participate in a World Cup final, according to FIFA World Cup records. ---Sluzzelin talk 01:03, 12 February 2011 (UTC)

As for the oldest player to win the FIFA Women's World Cup, I couldn't find that information readily available anywhere. So far, the oldest I found is Renate Lingor, who won the 2007 FIFA Women's World Cup 11 days before her 32nd birthday. But I didn't check any other winning teams, only the German team in 2007, so there may well be older ones). ---Sluzzelin talk 16:43, 12 February 2011 (UTC)

Now I checked some more, and found that Michelle Akers won the 1999 FIFA Women's World Cup at 33 1/2. ---Sluzzelin talk 16:53, 12 February 2011 (UTC)

Silke Rottenberg won it in 2007, she was part of the German team and was 35. Nanonic (talk) 17:06, 12 February 2011 (UTC)

Ah, good catch. I only looked at the players who were on the field during the final. ---Sluzzelin talk 17:28, 12 February 2011 (UTC)

Judie Tzuke's son-in-law

I've just been watching the Six Nations Rugby on BBC One and my query is indirectly connected with a question asked by the presenter. Before the match the presenter - I think it was Sonja McLaughlan - asked some of her guests if they knew the identity of Judie Tzuke's son-in-law. I missed the answer and wondered if someone who'd also seen this segment could tell me what it is. Could be useful for a pub quiz or something. Thanks 86.135.40.124 (talk) 14:57, 12 February 2011 (UTC)

Lewis Moody. Judia Tsuke's partner is Paul Muggleton, Lewis married Paul's daughter Annie in 2006. Nanonic (talk) 15:51, 12 February 2011 (UTC)

And Lewis Moody was the guest she was interviewing at the time: it was a joke she played on her co-presenters in the studio, to whom she posed the question (and who naturally did not know the answer) before reposing it to Moody himself to elicit the surprise answer. 87.81.230.195 (talk) 18:24, 14 February 2011 (UTC)

Fever fetishism

I have heard yellow fever meaning Asian fetish and jungle fever meaning black fetish. So, is there a term for a person who has desi fetish meaning fetish towards Indian, Pakistani, Sri Lankan and Bangladeshi? What about Latina fetish? What about white fetish? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.92.152.3 (talk) 16:13, 12 February 2011 (UTC)

"Curry fever" and "salsa fever", also listed on urbandictionary are "falafel fever", "oolong fever", "hay fever", "rice fever", "cocoa fever", "sand fever" "snow white fever", "monsoon fever" "Bieber fever" etc, although I doubt many of these have much currency. Other than jungle, my slang dictionary only seems to list "curry queen" and "yellow fever" both of them from homosexual usage. Jungle fever originally meant white desire for black but it was reappropriated to black desire for white with the movie Jungle Fever, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SikqrRQHbrw meltBanana 19:41, 12 February 2011 (UTC)

Discography of Blowfly

I've been downloading all the Blowfly albums i can find over the last few days, and i've noticed that i've been finding albums that are not listed on Blowfly's wikipedia page, but are still real albums that he put out. I wonder if someone could update the Blowfly page's "Discography" section so that a more accurate list of albums and dates they were originally released is presented. it could aid me in my search to find all his material. I always use wikipedia when i am looking for the entire discography of an artist, and this is the first time that the discography section has not been entirely correct (which is incredible, by the way. well done guys!), so i was hoping i could get some assistance in the matter. Thanks guys! Here are some links to sites that i've found with other Blowfly albums that are not included in the Discography section: http://henrystonemusic.com/store/hsmstoreblowflycd.htm http://www.amazon.com/Blowfly/e/B000APTJRA/works/ref=ntt_mus_teaser It's all very confusing because alot of his album's titles have the same words in them, for example, "Zodiac Blowfly", "Zodiac Party", "Blowfly's Party", ect. Any Assistance would be much appreciated. --Garebare (talk) 18:38, 12 February 2011 (UTC)Garebare

Guidelines for creating page about Musician?

I want to create a page about a musician; specifically a guitarist of a certain genre. I plan to include factual information (with reference links) about his albums, songs, gear equipment, career, and a short bio. I'm worried about the later and anything else that could cause a page deletion to occur. When I went to create the page (searching his name first to make sure it didn't already exist) the results showed two prior deletions for the same name with the following codes and reasons:

(Page deleted in 2008) - A7 (bio): Real person; doesn't indicate importance/significance

(Page deleted in 2007) - CSD A7: Article does does not indicate why its subject is important or significant

I've read what these mean but just looking for what 'not to do' when making a page about a living person. I see plenty of other Wikipedia pages about living musicians and guitarists that apparently meet the criteria. I just don't want to add anything extra that merits deletiion. Please advise, thanks.

Your subject needs to meet either the general notability guideline or the notability criteria for musicians, so take a look at those links first. Your article needs to demonstrate how he meets the guidelines; in other words, you need to cite substantial coverage of him in reliable sources. You're looking for articles about him in newspapers, magazines and books, or on reliable independent websites (not blogs, Facebook pages or self-published sites). Create the article in a user sandbox first, so you can work on it with less chance of it being deleted before it's ready. Clicking on this redlink: User:Snmavronis/sandbox will create such a sandbox if you wish. Listing it at WP:RFF for feedback when you're done will also help minimise the danger of another deletion nomination. Karenjc 21:42, 12 February 2011 (UTC)
