Featured article help

Hi. I noticed you were the nominator for Liverpool F.C. and have successfully helped get some articles about football teams through FAC. I have a couple of national team GAs that I would like to consider taking to FAC, but I had one bad experience and I'm not certain how to go about trying to get them through FAC. I was wondering if you might be able to help with any of the following:

I got them all through GA, despite very little playing history and being short. Do any of them have a realistic chance at FAC? What would it take to get them there? I tried with Zanzibar women's national football team and just bombed. --LauraHale (talk) 00:58, 25 June 2012 (UTC)

Calcio by John Foot

Hey man, I just saw you got Calcio by John Foot. I got that book a couple of days ago from The Works for like £2! Where did you get it? – PeeJay 23:11, 8 July 2012 (UTC)

Ah damn, that's a shame. Yeah, I'm not sure how many copies they had in stock throughout the country, but I picked mine up in Llandudno for £1.99. I think it was on Amazon for £6.99 though. – PeeJay 15:16, 9 July 2012 (UTC)

Hi NapHit, can you move "List of UEFA Cup and Europa League winners" to "List of UEFA Cup and UEFA Europa League winners"? Thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 123.20.149.149 (talk) 13:35, 21 August 2012 (UTC)

You're best bringing the issue up on the article talk page, as it would need a consensus to be reached for it to be moved.

Honours section at football club articles

Greetings NapHit. Regarding the change of format in the honours section of Wikipedia:WikiProject Football/Clubs, I fail to see how a runner-up honour can be listed there, as "no." implies number of wins. Any idea on how second-places should be presented? Cheers. – Kosm1fent 06:40, 4 September 2012 (UTC)

I see two options. One is to put runners-up in brackets after the honour, so "Premier League" would be "Premier League (Runners-up)". The other option is to do what the Luton Town article currently does, which is probably the best way for teams with not many honours. Hope that helps, I'll probably move the Luton table to the MOS page for clubs and have that as an example for clubs with little and trophies and the current one as an example for those with more trophies. NapHit (talk) 11:21, 4 September 2012 (UTC)
I'm not sure how sortable columns are useful in the Luton Town honours, but I think the new style works well nonetheless. Thanks! – Kosm1fent 14:12, 4 September 2012 (UTC)

A hand at FLC/FLRC

Hi NapHit. Dabomb87 isn't around too frequently and there are the odd times when both Giants2008 and I comment on the same list. This is now the case with one or two FLC/FLRCs that really need to be closed. I was wondering how you'd feel about filling in the Dabomb87-shaped gap for the time being? The Rambling Man (talk) 10:00, 18 September 2012 (UTC)

Hey, I'd be more than happy to help. The only issue is that I'm planning on travelling to Australia for a year, in a month's time. So i'd only be able to help for a short time, as I more than likely won't be on wiki once I'm in Oz, but if only helping for around a month is beneficial I'd happily oblige.

List of Australian Olympic medalists in swimming

I am sort of confused of the review you gave, so please explain it to me, so that I will understand.--Lucky102 (talk) 14:58, 30 September 2012 (UTC)

The tables need to have row and colscopes per MOS:DTT. Bold links such as those above each table are not allowed and should be removed. The prose is not great in places, so could with a copyedit. The tables need to sortable as well, as most featured lists are nowadays. Hope that helps. NapHit (talk) 15:06, 30 September 2012 (UTC)
So, for example, I unbold gold, silver, bronze;etc?--Lucky102 (talk) 16:22, 30 September 2012 (UTC)
No, the names of the athletes above the tables. Wikilnks should not be bold per MOS:BOLD. NapHit (talk) 16:40, 30 September 2012 (UTC)
Done, but that was in Giant's review, not yours. Would you explain the next one?--Lucky102 (talk) 19:33, 30 September 2012 (UTC)
It doesn't matter whose review it was in, the fact is it had to be fixed. I'm not going to go through every single point with you, as I don't have the time nor is it my responsibility. As most of the points are about refs I'll explain that. A claim such as the one in the first comment needs referencing as it is something that can be challenged. It's not a fact and therefore needs a reference. For the sorting, see any number of featured lists such as List of Formula One circuits and compare the coding. NapHit (talk) 20:24, 30 September 2012 (UTC)
The thing is, I'm not good at coding.--Lucky102 (talk) 20:37, 30 September 2012 (UTC)
Test in a sandbox then, everyone has been no good at coding at one point, how do they think they learnt to do it? NapHit (talk) 20:57, 30 September 2012 (UTC)
So I copy and paste the whole article into my sandbox?--Lucky102 (talk) 21:02, 30 September 2012 (UTC)

Just the table, please stop pestering me with questions. The best way to figure things out is by trial and error, read what I said above and figure it out. I won't respond to anymore questions, as this is getting quite silly now. NapHit (talk) 21:23, 30 September 2012 (UTC)

Question regarding List of Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross recipients (A)

Hi there. I wonder if I made an operational error during the review process? I had addressed every comment made, improving those remarks adequately where I saw room for improvement, but leaving one comment unaddressed because I felt this was a question of style. Does it make sense to renominate at this point? Thanks MisterBee1966 (talk) 14:50, 3 October 2012 (UTC)

I wouldn't nominate it again immediately, I think there's some guideline that states you should wait a week or so before re-nominating but I could be wrong. The main problem was that the nomination became stale due to a lack of reviewers. This has been an ongoing problem for a while unfortunately and it does mean that some nominations get neglected. This is no one's fault, what I would encourage you to do next time you nominate is to notify the relevant wikiprojects that the list is at FLC and review some other lists, which might lead to other nominators/reviewers reciprocating. NapHit (talk) 19:53, 3 October 2012 (UTC)

CL Standings Template

I rebuilt the template for an exemple look at this: Template:2012–13 UEFA Champions League group B standings. For the solution of the problem I suggest to create a Template {{UEFA Champions League group B standings}} so every year we update it with the new information like this one and to extend these template to all competition EL, World Cup, Olympics and so on... Do you think is a good idea? If yes do you have some suggest for these template? --Stigni (talk) 19:58, 6 October 2012 (UTC)

Creating the template you suggested will not solve anything. If you update it every year, then the previous year's standings will be replaced by the new season's ones. We really do not need templates for this or any other competition, wikitables do the job perfectly well. Yes, it may be a pain to update the articles, but its hardly the hardest task in the world. As I've said before, you're trying to fix a problem which does not exist. NapHit (talk) 20:39, 6 October 2012 (UTC)
You are right but every year we have a lot of edit/undo for people that misunderstanding the tie-breaking rules so we have to check only one page for group and not 6 like now, and you also said that if we have 5+ pages it could be useful. --Stigni (talk) 20:49, 6 October 2012 (UTC)
I did indeed say that, but I have now realised there is no point in these templates. In the current format they are not needed after December, when the group stage is finished. Therefore, they should be deleted as you can just transfer the wikitable to the articles, which again highlights the pointlessness of the templates. The format you suggested here won't work either for the reasons I've stated. I don't think creating templates because people misunderstand the tie-breaking rules is necessary in the slightest.

2008 Summer Olympics football convenience template navbox

Hi, NapHit

I strongly argued that the convenience template navbox is useful and is against nomination for deletion. Users would be able to view the matches of every football game, the team rosters, and vice versa, without having a difficult time searching for a template. Additionally, the navbox also allows templates to have their own in order to reduce and save space of the nations' articles. This is also much similar to the Template:2012 Summer Olympics football convenience template navbox. Sorry if I deleted the template warning, but I already fixed the navbox just minutes ago. Thank you. Raymarcbadz (talk) 06:20, 9 October 2012 (UTC)

I don't know what you mean in the second sentence it makes no sense. They had no issue viewing the matches before, do why did we create these pointless templates. You're entitled to your opinion and that is what the TFD page is for, but so people are aware a discussion is taking place, please do not remove the tag or templates from the nominaton page, as it could be seen that you are hindering the discussion thanks.
