Brian Kaltak "vandalism"[edit]

What are you talking about? He did win the Championship?

All you've changed is removing this line: "Kaltak was part of the Mariners' Championship, Premiership and AFC Cup winning 2023-24 season."

What are actually on about? What have I vandalised? He literally was, and it's referenced. Beyond ridiculous. Go fix it back yourself. Matt jobe watson (talk) 09:13, 28 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

You removed valid sources. At best your edit was incompetent. GiantSnowman 18:15, 28 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Go fix it up then champ. His page is now inaccurate because you removed details of him winning the 2023-24 championship. Matt jobe watson (talk) 13:07, 29 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I should not need to clean up after you, repeatedly. GiantSnowman 17:14, 29 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I don't mean to be a pedant on this section you've removed from British Asians in association football, but based on the fact that Masood was an immigrant from Pakistan in 1956, he would have been a British colonial subject. You can read more about it here: British_subject#1949_to_1982. So frankly, the fact that he was in Britain and played for Bradford for that season, shows that he was a 'British Asian' in as far as you could be at that time. So I'd argue that he shouldn't be excluded form the article, but maybe needs a line to justify that he was a British subject. Mountaincirquetalk 13:52, 29 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Feel free to raise on the talk page - my view is that it is outside of the scope/intention of the article. GiantSnowman 17:15, 29 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I have sent you a note about a page you started[edit]

Hi GiantSnowman. Thank you for your work on Tommy Frenck. Another editor, Clearfrienda, has reviewed it as part of new pages patrol and left the following comment:

Not sure this meets WP:BASIC. All independent in-depth coverage is WP:MILL election coverage. Simply being a candidate doesn't guarantee notability (WP:NPOL). Articles similar to this this usually don't survive AfD.

Hello, GiantSnowman

Welcome to Wikipedia! I edit here too, under the username Clearfrienda, and I thank you for your contributions.

I wanted to let you know, however, that I've proposed an article that you started, Tommy Frenck, for deletion because it meets one or more of our deletion criteria, and I don't think that it is suitable for inclusion in the encyclopedia. The particular issue can be found in the notice that is now visible at the top of the article.

If you wish to contest the deletion:

  1. Edit the page
  2. Remove the text that looks like this: {{proposed deletion/dated...}}
  3. Click the Publish changes button.

If you object to the article's deletion, please remember to explain why you think the article should be kept on the article's talk page and improve the page to address the issues raised in the deletion notice. Otherwise, it may be deleted later by other means.

If you have any questions, please leave a comment here and prepend it with {{Re|Clearfrienda}}. And remember to sign your reply with ~~~~. Thanks!
