Hi there - Wikipedia relies on reliable sources ↗ to verify ↗ information, especially about living people ↗. You didn't provide a source for your changes to the Roberto De Zerbi ↗ article, and I couldn't find one either. If you have a reliable source please let me know and we can change the article. Please let me know if you have any questions. GiantSnowman 20:27, 20 September 2022 (UTC)

January 2023



25px|alt=Information icon ↗ Please do not add or change content, as you did at :Gennaro Gattuso ↗, without citing a reliable source ↗. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources ↗ and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you.<!-- Template:uw-unsourced2 --> Mattythewhite (talk) 18:27, 30 January 2023 (UTC)

25px|alt=Information icon|link= ↗ Hello. Thank you for your contributions ↗ to Wikipedia ↗. I noticed that your recent edit to :Martín Demichelis ↗ did not have an edit summary ↗. You can use the edit summary field to explain your reasoning for an edit, or to provide a description of what the edit changes. Summaries save time for other editors and reduce the chances that your edit will be misunderstood. For some edits, an adequate summary may be quite brief ↗.

The edit summary field looks like this:
{{The edit-summary field/OOUI}}

'''Please provide an edit summary for every edit you make.''' With a Wikipedia account ↗ you can give yourself a reminder to add an edit summary by setting {{myprefs|3|check=Prompt me when entering a blank edit summary}}, and then click the "Save" button.
Thanks!{{sp}}<!-- Template:uw-editsummary --> <b style="font-family: Segoe Script;">''<span style="color:#EDDA74">City</span><span style="color:Green">O</span><span style="color:Red">f</span><span style="color:#708090">Silver</span> ↗''</b> 20:12, 1 October 2023 (UTC)

Josh Wolff



@The Special Man You have changed the coaching statistics on Josh Wolff ↗ twice adding three unexplained games. He has only been coach for Austin FC ↗. They have played the following;
If you think there were 3 U.S. Open Cup games in 2021, that is not correct. Those games weren't specific to the U.S. Open Cup, but rather MLS season games that were to be used to see which MLS teams qualified for the 8 MLS slots in the 2021 U.S. Open Cup ↗, prior to it being cancelled. Demt1298 (talk) 22:57, 31 March 2024 (UTC)

Why did you revert my edit?



Please explain on why you revert my edit in Dick Advocaat ↗. JoshuaInWiki (talk) 00:20, 12 April 2024 (UTC)

:Because i’ve seen many statitics of Curazao, and nobody mentions those two games you edit in the table.
:Tell me, what’s games was that??, explain me please. The Special Man (talk) 03:14, 12 April 2024 (UTC)

July 2024



30px|alt=Stop icon ↗ You may be '''blocked from editing ↗ without further warning''' the next time you add unsourced or poorly sourced ↗ material to Wikipedia, as you did at :Sébastien Pocognoli ↗. <!-- Template:uw-unsourced4 --> GiantSnowman 20:34, 7 July 2024 (UTC)

:I am growing increasingly concerned by the very poor sourcing you are trying to use here, in violation of WP:BLP ↗, WP:V ↗, and also WP:OR ↗ and WP:SYNTH ↗ with the Soccerway which has no mention of his managerial stats, it just says he is manager of the club. If you try and add again without a source which explicitly states his stats, you will be blocked, OK? GiantSnowman 21:01, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
