Thanks for uploading Image:TANFL Logo.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

Do NOT add Cooee to state league history. Cooee's final season of existence was in the NWFU in it's final season.

Template doesn't specifically refer to any problem as such. If it could be demonstrated where the problem is, I could rectify it.
I thought it was AFL_Cool just being small minded and doing that because I called him out on his lack of knowledge on another page.

To answer your question - the whole article needs to be fortified with citations. A number of statements (too many to mention 100 percent) look very much like WP:OR. Some may well be true but it needs sources otherwise it can be removed. Just as a start - and I'm not saying these points are untrue but they still need sources;
You need to cite where it says that the TANFL met in 1944 for a 1945 return and the "fact" that they went district instead of club.
Clarence and New Norfolk's origins (the SEDFL did not exist before WW2 incidentally).
The merger of New Town and Glenorchy.
The claim that the succeeding period was the strongest era in the league's history (that reads like an opinion which is not allowed).
The Winfield sponsorship.
And that's just the District Football part. There are issues with the rest as well, but I'm just giving you an idea of what you need to do. This isn't about small mindedness. This is about WP policy. This could be a candidate for good article status if you could just cite stuff. Just remember what I said about primary sources, okay? AFL-Cool (talk) 09:13, 24 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

File copyright problem with File:Winfield_Cup_logo.jpg
Thank you for uploading File:Winfield_Cup_logo.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the file. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their license and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link.
A file that you uploaded or altered, File:Blues88.JPG, has been listed at Wikipedia:Possibly unfree files because its copyright status is unclear or disputed. If the file's copyright status cannot be verified, it may be deleted. You may find more information on the file description page. You are welcome to add comments to its entry at the discussion if you are interested in it not being deleted. Thank you.

Hi, Forfuxake. I notice that several images you've uploaded have been listed at Wikipedia:Possibly unfree files. The reason is that you have given misleading or incorrect information about the images on their file description pages. For example, consider File:TSFL LOGO MONO.JPG. On the image description page, you claim, "I (Forfuxake) created this work entirely by myself," and say that you have released the image under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 license. However, at Wikipedia:Possibly unfree files/2010 March 27#File:TSFL LOGO MONO.JPG you say that this logo was forwarded to you by a representative of the Mercury Newspaper. So you did not create this work entirely by yourself, and you have not provided any evidence that the copyright holder of this image (whoever that is) has actually agreed to release the image under a Creative Commons license. This is a big problem. If you are not the artist who originally drew the logo, then you are not the creator, nor are you the copyright holder, and so you cannot decide that the image should be released under a Creative Commons license. What you need to do is to correct the information on the file description page so that it is actually true, and then contact the copyright holder and ask for the logo to be released under a free license (see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for more details). Unless we can secure such permission, the image will be considered non-free here on Wikipedia and is likely to be deleted (unless it can be shown to meet our strict non-free content policy). Let me know if you need help or have any questions. —Bkell (talk) 22:08, 27 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Gday Jev! Thanks for the kudos mate. Yes that's the same bloke, he ended up being an around-the-grounds commentator for ABC Radio in the old Statewide League after he got the bullet from the Bay in 1990. I also think he might've had something to do with coaching juniors down this way as well somewhere. Last I heard of him, he was doing live crosses at Bellerive a few years back on the same station during Devils VFL matches.Forfuxake (talk) 15:42, 17 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

As part of the Wikipedia:Disambiguation pages with links project, I have edited a number of pages that you have created which all featured large numbers of ambiguous links to Attendance. Since it appeared that all the links were for the dictionary definition, and the closest applicable page on Wikipedia I could find was List of sports attendance figures, I elected to de-link all of them. It looks like you are very active in creating pages related to the Tasmanian Football League, many of which feature these links. I'm not sure where I'm going with this- I guess I'm concerned that this could turn into some weird edit war. Anyway, from my perspective, I'd prefer that the links not exist, but I don't know if it's all part of some larger plan I'm not aware of. Let me know what you think- I don't have a problem de-linking all of them en masse, but I didn't want you to think that I was crazily laying siege to a whole pile of your pages either.

Have you noticed that the for and against totals in the ladders fail to balance, that what you get when you copy straight out the The Mercury. Purrum (talk) 04:19, 19 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
G'day Purrum! Cheers for that. Which years would be the ones not matching up? I'll go back through the results and add them myself if they don't stack up. The Muckery can be a bit ropey at times like that and also some of the print is that small that I may have made a mistake writing it down. Forfuxake (talk) 18:40, 20 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for that, are you talking about the points "For" versus points "Against" or actual wins and losses mate? I'm a bit confused.
As an example in 1970:
Sandy Bay had wins in Rounds 1, 2, 4, 5, 6, 9, 10, 12, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19 & 20 (15 wins)
Clarence had wins in Rounds 1, 3, 4, 5, 8, 9, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 17, 19 & drew 16 (13 wins, 1 draw)
Norfik' had wins in Rounds 1, 4, 6, 7, 8, 10, 11, 14, 16, 18, 20 & drew 3 & 19 (11 wins, 2 draws)
Nth Hobart had wins in Rounds 2, 3, 5, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 13, 15, 20 & drew 18 & 19 (11 wins, 2 draws)
Glenorchy had wins in Rounds 6, 12, 13 & drew 3 & 16 (3 wins, 2 draws)
Hobart had wins in Rounds 2, 7, 17 & drew 18 (3 wins, 1 draw)
1999 was a huge kerfuffle due to the Southern Cats being wound up by their executives after seven rounds. They stripped the Cats of all points and awarded points to all teams that had play them up to that point, then awarded points to the teams who were having a bye from there-after, created by the Cats going under.
If you're talking about the scores not adding up I'll go back and re-add them again to make sure they balance out.
Generally some of the publications do have some discrepancies between the Mercury and the League publications (eg: 1977 Glenorchy were always listed in league publications as kicking 3.14 (32) in the Grand Final, but the Mercury had 5.14 (44) with five goal scorers listed).
Former TFL historian Alf Upton always claimed the lowest crowd at a match was 531 in 1979, but I've come across lower in the 1940's, I'll keep my eye out anyway. Thanks for letting me know!! Forfuxake (talk) 15:09, 3 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hey dude. As per the others on your talk page, thoroughly enjoying looking through old Tasmanian footy results.

Hi Aspirex! Nice spotting, it was indeed wrong, it was SB 13.18 (96) not 13.8 (86) for the '58 Prelim Final.
Also, yes Hobart booted 9.3 to 1.3 in the final quarter to win the '57 First Semi. The week after that North and Glenorchy met on the record wettest single day ever recorded in Hobart (156mm)!Forfuxake (talk) 17:04, 26 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
What are the clash jumpers in the TSL? Seeing that Glenorchy, Devonport , Laudervale and North Launceston have clashing jumpers, what is the away strip?
Hi Purrum!
Glenorchy wear a bottle green and white (think Port Power) uniform when playing in Devonport, the green is like a Peppermint Crisp wrapper colour.
Lauderdale wear the Geelong strip (their former colours until they entered the SFL Premier League a few years ago) when they play North Launceston away.
North Launceston wear a grey/off white uniform with a "Northern Bombers" logo on the chest and black numbers away to Lauderdale.
As for Devonport, I can't say I've ever seen them wear a clash strip, I don't think they've played Glenorchy away in the two years the comp's been running.
North Launceston's actual nickname is "Northern Bombers" and that's just what they were referred to as by the media and the club themselves after they ditched the North Launceston Robins moniker after 1997, until they joined the TSL.
Curiously, the senior and reserve grade teams are called North Launceston, but their Under-19's team is known simply as "Northern Bombers".

Thanks for uploading File:Ulverstone Logo.JPG. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information; to add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click the "Edit" tab at the top of the page and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia.
Had to revert your changes from TFL to TSL, because that causes confusion with soccer and it's also using the commercial name instead of the proper name. Also, I haven't tagged it yet, but could you cite where you got those updated crowd figures that you edited? Footy Freak7 (talk) 04:29, 3 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hey mate, I don't think we've ever met, which is odd considering we both mainly edit Aussie rules articles. Anyway, I realise that my edits to the East Launceston Football Club article were all pretty minor, but I don't think they were "pointless", as they were all to help the article comply with the manual of style. I do appreciate that you've gone to the trouble of creating a good article and all my edits were intended to do was to slightly improve that effort. If you think any of my edits have made the article worse, I'll be happy to try and rectify the problem. So, is there anything that you specifically don't like about my edits? Also, when creating articles, please add references to them. I knew the club was notable, but without references, many editors from other parts of the world might not have. Cheers, Jenks24 (talk) 20:14, 31 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
No we possibly have not, no. I take it that you're relatively new here and eager to edit? The edits I find annoying are things such "Red and blue", "winners" instead of Winners (lower casing where it looks tidier being in upper) - this makes it looks sloppy, unprofessional and teenage-like and I don't want them on articles I put up, thankyou.
I also want these articles spaced out properly, I do not want them where all the sentences all run into each other, again, sloppy and unprofessional. If I find them annoying in future I will undo them.
You will also find that with Tasmanian football there is not a great deal of information out there, that is where a good deal of local information and an intimate inside knowledge is an advantage. Forfuxake (talk) 20:22, 31 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Slightly amused to be called "relatively new" by someone with less than 2000 edits, but yes, I guess I haven't been around as long as you (only since April last year). Firstly, I changed "red & blue" to "red and blue" because WP:& recommends against it, although it does state they can be used in infoboxes, I think it looks sloppy and unprofessional use ampersands (but it's your article, so change it back if you wish). As to the capitalisation, that's something I won't budge on. Wikipedia:Manual of Style (capital letters) and Wikipedia:Manual of Style#Section headings might be an interesting read for you, but to summarise it, Wikipedia does not use title case, it uses sentence case for headings, by which I mean only proper nouns are capitalised. As to the spacing out properly, I'm not sure what you really mean by that, but it's fairly ridiculous continually add <br /> all the time (but, again, it's your article, so add them back if you really want). I do understand that it can be difficult to reference articles on Tasmanian football (writing Ken Hall (footballer) is about the closest I've got to Tassie football), but you per WP:V (one of Wikipedia's core policies), everything you add to an article must be referenced to a reliable source. There are editors who make it their mission to remove all unsourced content from articles, so please don't let this happen to the useful articles you write. For example, if you're using the full points footy book to as your reference for most of the article (as it appeared you did for the East Launceston article), please just add that to the references section in future (as I've done for this article). As I'm writing this, I realise that you have re-capitalised everything; could you please explain why words like blue and red are proper nouns and need to be capitalised?

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Mornington Tenpin until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on good quality evidence, and our policies and guidelines.
Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion template from the top of the article. The-Pope (talk) 17:20, 5 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Hi. The article about Mornington is correct information. I'm a former employee there, played at the centre I'm also longtime friends with two former managers of the facility and also, any statistical data provided comes courtesy of the 1992 STTBA (Southern Tasmanian Tenpin Bowling Association) end of season report from that year. By the way, CMC ran the centre for tax reasons.Forfuxake (talk) 19:26, 5 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
G'day mate. I have just patrolled your new article. In its present state it is vulnerable for nomination for deletion for a couple of reasons - firstly, there is very little to demonstrate that this little footie club, disbanded 16 years ago, is sufficiently notable to warrant its own article on Wikipedia. Have a look at WP:NOTABILITY. Secondly, your article contains no reference or in-line citation to allow independent verification of anything you have written. On Wikipedia anything that is likely to be challenged needs to be supported by some information about the source. Have a look at WP:VERIFY.
For some good basic information about supplying references in Wikipedia articles, have a look at WP:REFBEGIN. Cheers! Dolphin(t)08:11, 27 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
This 'little footie club' you mention had a good history thanks Dolphin. It had its roots stemming back to 1894, but closed the original club down to eradicate debts and rebranded itself with a metropolitan name to be included in the state's most popular league. Just because it wasn't playing in the AFL doesn't mean it was some crappy little tinpot outfit.Forfuxake (talk) 19:04, 10 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
A tag has been placed on File:Plapp.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F9 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted images or text borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.
If you think that the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. The-Pope (talk) 14:05, 22 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified the non-free rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page.

You are continuing to create unreferenced articles such as 1999 SFL season. Please see WP:V and WP:BURDEN - you must add sources to articles you create.

Hi Forfuxake, just thought I'd give you a bit more clarification on the usage of icons on the SFL season pages as I couldn't fit it all in the edit summary. Since the discussion at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Australian rules football/Archive 6#Use of icons, the consensus has been to not include/remove existing icons from articles that fall into the WP:AFL project, which the SFL season pages do. The discussion stemmed from WP:ICONDECORATION whereby icons should serve an encyclopedic purpose and not merely be decorative, and as already stated, the consensus is to not include them on pages such as season pages, lists etc. The only time you'll find they're used is on league pages in team tables and in grand final type pages. I'm also planning on getting the SFL season pages up to formatting standards and having the games listed in templates, i.e. {{AFLGame}}, and the use of icons in those templates has always been discouraged. It's also a good idea for future reference when reverting someone to provide an edit summary so they know why you've made the change. Thanks for all your hard work otherwise on Tasmanian football related pages though. Flickerd (talk) 05:47, 29 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
The roster match set up you've done with the 2016 and 2017 pages looks good, however I would prefer to see quarter-by-quarter scores in ALL finals series matches as is the case with the Grand Final (the local media do use these for reference at various times I've noticed with the TFL pages and will likely do so with these).
I understand you taking club colours down from each individual match but I feel it would be necessary to keep them in the section entitled "Participating Clubs" as a number of these clubs have used different colours and jumpers down the years.
Namely Hobart, Kermandie, Glenorchy, North Hobart, New Norfolk, Central Hawks, Lauderdale for example.
Also, I would prefer to see neat capitalisation used (ie: "Medal Winners" as opposed to Medal winners, Grand Final as opposed to grand final as examples).
I'm not opposed to having the colours in the participating clubs for the reasons you've stated as it would aid comprehension for the reader. As for the capitalisation, this is a big no no on Wikipedia per MOS:CAPS and MOS:HEADCAPS as they are in sentence case rather than every word capitalised. The exception to this is if it's a proper noun, so for example, 2017 SFL Grand Final is capitalised as it's an official event, but just having grand final is generic and thus reverts to sentence case. Having all quarter results for finals is fine, I just did it how all other season pages have been done, but it doesn't hurt to have it. Thanks, Flickerd (talk) 03:51, 30 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
