Thanks for the note - unfortunately, as it seems he never made a first team appearance for Southampton, he is not listed in any of my reference books.

Hi,

You quite rightly reverted some vandalism after I had edited it yesterday, but the weird thing is that there appears to be an edit missing from in between mine and yours. If you go forwards to mine, you can see my bona fide edits, but if you go back from yours to mine it looks like I was the one doing the vandalism. Any idea? Thanks for fixing it anyway, and at least you (hopefully) know my edits well enough to know I'm no vandal!:> WikiGull (talk) 16:10, 10 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

I notice your comment in the edit summary for this article - you wrote "no record of him playing in the "Arsenal Who's Who", which lists every post-war professional on the club's books." Is there any possibility that this person could have had any involvement with Arsenal in a playing capacity (beyond trialling) in 1960-1 without being listed in that book?

Arsenal Reserve Squad Numbers

edit

I made an edit to include the squad numbers of reserve players for Arsenal F.C.. They were deleted on the basis that in reserve games players are awarded numbers 1-11, which I understand completely. I would however like to suggest though that they are allowed, as these squad numbers are based on the Champions League Squad list given to UEFA. I feel the information is useful as it indicates which reserve and youth team players are closer to the first team, based on been rewarded with their own squad number. They can't appear on the main squad (quite rightly), having not made an apperance or been selected for any match squads. So in summary I'm asking for them to be included with a foot note saying "during reserve games players wear numbers 1-11". I hope you understand my argument and thank you for your time.

Andy Hessenthaler's dad

edit

Hi Qwghlm

For my birthday I got a CD of an audio interview with Gills legend Andy Hessenthaler, and in answer to the very first question he mentions that his dad once played for Arsenal. I take this to mean that he was at best a youth/reserves player, so this is an extreme longshot, but I don't suppose you have any source that mentions when he was there, what level he reached, or even what his first name is/was........?

Arsenal Squad List

edit

Hi Chris

Could you please sort out the squad list issue. You can read Arsenal's main discussion page and my own for the back ground story. Someone is persisting on doing it by his own guild lines and not Wikipedia's. Of the 20 Premier League teams only Blackburn's is done the way he is suggesting, the other 19 are the traditional way. He is moving players who have played for the first team (now squad players) and adding the reserves to the main list, when there is a link (their own page) to them directly below. (ArsenalWiki (talk) 00:30, 17 July 2009 (UTC))Reply

I'm doing it by Arsenal's guidelines, not my own and certainly not Wikipedia's, because frankly we don't have the authority to make up our own squad guidelines. I don't think Qwghlm totally agrees with me on this matter but at the very least he understands what the discussion is about. Eightball (talk) 19:54, 17 July 2009 (UTC)Reply

Just a note to say that I have disambiguated the links to Bobby / Robert Templeton (Scottish international in the 1900s) as there was also a Hibs manager of this name [1], who is definitely a different person.

Billy Milne, manager of LONDON XI

edit

Hi, you started the article of Billy Milne a scottish arsenal player. He later was manager and fisioterapist on arsenal and england team.

Researching for a Fairs Cup article in spanish edition i have found this article on a spanish newspaper.

"In this link (in spanish) there is a cronicle of the final match of the first FAIRS CUP (1955-58) between FC Barcelona and London XI, a selection of london-teams players that represents the city of london (arsenal, chelsea, totenham,crystal palace, west ham,etc). In the same cronicle you can read an interview to the manager of LONDON XI, some called "WILLIAM MILSNE" in fact i think is WILLIAM MILNE, the spanish journalist says is from arsenal... i tihnk is billy milne in functions of LONDON XI manager.

[2]

The journalist says Milne is "assistant of arsenal" and doing "functions of manager of LONDON XI" during the Fairs Cup... some to add to honours of Billy Milne.

Arsenal Shareholders

edit

Hi Chris. I see that you have updated the Arsenal Shareholders section on the Ownership of Arsenal page. There are a few things that have been missed by virtually everybody as they just digest the media splurge and take it as gospel. Kroenke hasn't bought Fizsman's shares. Kroenke has an option to buy and Fizsman has an option to sell these shares to each other when they want to. The full press release is here: http://www.plus-sx.com/newsItem.html?newsId=1155049 (Item 11 - The option agreement). I could try to re-write the article but it would end up a mess. Also, Kroenke was obliged to make an offer for the other shareholder's shares because his own shareholding went over 30%, not because he is the majority shareholder (not that he is anyway). Any chance you could re-write it incorporating the true figures? Goonerak (talk) 14:56, 13 April 2011 (UTC)Reply

MSU Interview

edit

Dear Qwghlm,

My name is Jonathan Obar user:Jaobar, I'm a professor in the College of Communication Arts and Sciences at Michigan State University and a Teaching Fellow with the Wikimedia Foundation's Education Program. This semester I've been running a little experiment at MSU, a class where we teach students about becoming Wikipedia administrators. Not a lot is known about your community, and our students (who are fascinated by wiki-culture by the way!) want to learn how you do what you do, and why you do it. A while back I proposed this idea (the class) to the communityHERE, where it was met mainly with positive feedback. Anyhow, I'd like my students to speak with a few administrators to get a sense of admin experiences, training, motivations, likes, dislikes, etc. We were wondering if you'd be interested in speaking with one of our students.


So a few things about the interviews:

  • Interviews will last between 15 and 30 minutes.
  • Interviews can be conducted over skype (preferred), IRC or email. (You choose the form of communication based upon your comfort level, time, etc.)
  • All interviews will be completely anonymous, meaning that you (real name and/or pseudonym) will never be identified in any of our materials, unless you give the interviewer permission to do so.
  • All interviews will be completely voluntary. You are under no obligation to say yes to an interview, and can say no and stop or leave the interview at any time.
  • The entire interview process is being overseen by MSU's institutional review board (ethics review). This means that all questions have been approved by the university and all students have been trained how to conduct interviews ethically and properly.


Bottom line is that we really need your help, and would really appreciate the opportunity to speak with you. If interested, please send me an email at [email protected] (to maintain anonymity) and I will add your name to my offline contact list. If you feel comfortable doing so, you can post your nameHERE instead.

If you have questions or concerns at any time, feel free to email me at [email protected]. I will be more than happy to speak with you.

Thanks in advance for your help. We have a lot to learn from you.

Sincerely,

If it needs tweaking, or if it needs rewording to match improvements to the article between now and its main page appearance, please edit it, following the instructions at Wikipedia:Today's featured article/requests/instructions. The blurb as it stands now is below:

The history of Arsenal Football Club between 1886 and 1966 covers the time from the club's foundation, through the first two major periods of success and their subsequent decline to mid-table status. Arsenal was founded in 1886 as a workers' team from Woolwich, South East London. They turned professional in 1891 and joined the Football League two years later, winning promotion into the First Division in 1904. Arsenal was bought out in 1910 by Sir Henry Norris, and he moved the team to Arsenal Stadium in Highbury, North London, in 1913 to improve their financial standing. It was not until the appointment of Herbert Chapman as manager that Arsenal had their first period of major success; under him and his successor George Allison, Arsenal won five First Division titles and two FA Cups in the 1930s. After the Second World War, Tom Whittaker continued the success, leading the club to two First Division titles and another FA Cup. Arsenal's fortunes gradually declined; by 1966, they were in mid-table obscurity and had not won a trophy in thirteen years. This led to the dismissal of Billy Wright as manager, and with it the appointment of Bertie Mee. (Full article...)

Thanks for uploading File:Gretna 2008 FC Crest.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Stefan2 (talk) 21:40, 12 December 2014 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion nomination of Caesar Jenkyns

edit
 

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Caesar Jenkyns requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a real person or group of people that does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.

Proposed deletion of Farhad Moshiri (disambiguation)

edit
 

The article Farhad Moshiri (disambiguation) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Disambiguation page not required (WP:ONEOTHER). Primary topic article has a hatnote to the only other use.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
