Rachel Buehler/Van Hollebeke

Should the Rachel Buehler page be renamed to "Rachel Van Hollebeke" or "Rachel Buehler Van Hollebeke"? I assume the full name at least should be changed to "Rachel Buehler Van Hollebeke" rather than "Rachel Marie Buehler" (see this tweet) or should "Marie" be kept?

I think it should be "Rachel Van Hollebeke" per WP:NAME. Hmlarson (talk) 01:42, 29 January 2014 (UTC)

Montenegro

Hi there. Anyone able to find a website, blog, facebook page, etc. having a current table of the Montenegrin Women's League? The should be in winter break of their third season, but the federation website has somehow disabled links to the league. One of the few leagues not covered on the UEFA website. -Koppapa (talk) 08:57, 1 March 2014 (UTC)

Found some link weeks later. :-) -Koppapa (talk) 07:55, 28 April 2014 (UTC)

Pageview stats

After a recent request, I added WikiProject Football/Women's football task force to the list of projects to compile monthly pageview stats for. The data is the same used by http://stats.grok.se/en/ but the program is different, and includes the aggregate views from all redirects to each page. The stats are at Wikipedia:WikiProject Football/Women's football task force/Popular.

The page will be updated monthly with new data. The edits aren't marked as bot edits, so they will show up in watchlists. You can view more results, request a new project be added to the list, or request a configuration change for this project using the Tool Labs tool. If you have any comments or suggestions, please let me know. Thanks! Mr.Z-man 22:50, 5 April 2014 (UTC)

Tyresö FF

Anyone wanna improve the history section a little now that they are playing the Champions League final and are basically so bancrupt they'll lose all expensive players? -Koppapa (talk) 07:55, 28 April 2014 (UTC)

@Koppapa: I'd be willing to contribute. Do you know of any specific articles or other resources that might be good sources to build from? Hmlarson (talk) 19:26, 29 April 2014 (UTC)
Unfortunately not. German blog ffschweden has written pretty much over the last years. What should be added is the overtaking of Hans Lindström in 2006 when he put up money and the club went from 4th tier back to first, winning 2 swedish cups. History for the earlier years should be a bit harder to find. -Koppapa (talk) 21:03, 29 April 2014 (UTC)

Assistance with 2 NWSL team season articles

Currently looking for assistance from someone(s) to help create the 2014 Western New York Flash season and 2014 Portland Thorns FC season season articles... All other teams' season articles have been created. You could use 2013 Western New York Flash season and 2013 Portland Thorns FC season as starting points and update for the current season. Any contributions are most appreciated. Hmlarson (talk) 21:45, 8 May 2014 (UTC)

@Hmlarson: I wrote up a new page for the 2014 Portland Thorns FC season but was rejected by a filter. I basically copied the 2013 page with updated roster/match results so I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. I'm a Wikipedia newb so I might be missing something obvious. Slowburner (talk) 23:19, 14 July 2014 (UTC)
@Slowburner: Ugg...I'm sorry. Any chance you had saved a copy in Word or a text editor? I haven't run into any error message with filters but have sometimes lost my connection and learned the hard way when making significant edits/writing to copy/paste to text editor just in case something happens. Hmlarson (talk) 23:29, 14 July 2014 (UTC)
@Hmlarson: Yup, thankfully I did. The filter's rejecting the infobox section, so I left it off and created the rest of the page. I'll keep experimenting... Slowburner (talk) 23:58, 14 July 2014 (UTC)
@Slowburner: Awesome. What is the error message you're getting? If you'd like me to take a look at the infobox code, feel free to send. Hmlarson (talk) 00:02, 15 July 2014 (UTC)
@Hmlarson: I ended up adding the infobox section line by line. Tedious, but it worked! The error I received was that my edit triggered an edit filter ("Long-term pattern abuse"). Anyway, the basic page is there now. Slowburner (talk) 00:33, 15 July 2014 (UTC)
@Slowburner: Strange! I've never seen that before; glad you were able to get it in there. Thanks for working on it. Hmlarson (talk) 16:40, 15 July 2014 (UTC)
