arsenal_2111 Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 Thanks for the reply, i didn't "delete" seans work pre-se i merely reworded it so it was easier to read, changing his possible players to sell into a bullleted list i thought helped alot, By the way do you know what happened to Sean? His account isn't registered on Si forums anymore. The Enrique part he stated was based on his accounts from FM08 and may not apply to FM09. actical Advice i feel shouldn't be given unless its for a very good reason, i don't see why Sean reccomended fast pasted direct attacking as that would be reliant on the players you may buy or sell, FM tactics are very complicated and if the user takes in the advice from the wiki and it doesn't work it could leave him feeling very frustrated . Yeah, sean10 is NUFCSean who's computer wouldnt let him log on so he got that account and then had it deleted when he got his problem fixed. Where did he say that that is based on FM08? I can't see it. That was base advice, people won't just do that. There is nothing wrong with giving some advice, wether you agree with it or not. And, regarding Enrique again, I agree that he isn't good enough from his technical stats. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ahmufcwafc Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 I added some info on the youth intake page at the bottom, and gave a link to the youth development page, where I will give my theories on youth development.That is all I can do today, because of coursework etc. I will pop in and out of the website and the forums for the next few days and do as much as i can. Where is peterevo and some of the other contributers? It has been a bit quite recently. Well I can't speak for the others, but I won't be able to contribute as much as I was able to last week because of schoolwork piling up on me again. I fell back a lot last term so now I have a load of work to do. So don't expect me to be doing much with the wiki from now until easter. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
arsenal_2111 Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 I've got school work too, so I won't be able to contribute as much atm. There isn't much more to do for me, except a fewmore team profiles. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jod123 Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 I am here. I have not been doing much for the wiki and I shall start doing more. I am here as well but I still am doing exams. I will try and do a bit and will do more when my exams are over. I was reading the discussion between Orion Dean and Arsenal. This is an example of what could happen though. One person makes edits in good faith trying to improve the article so there is certainly nothing wrong with that. Another person could have a different opinion on a player for example which again is fair. If the two people are stubborn enough it could lead to edit wars and stuff. You can't really dismiss either person as they are both entitled to have their opinions and they both are trying to improve the article so what should we do in this case if that ever happened?

I have no idea tbh, maybe put two bullet points with differing views? Like on some TV shows/magazines etc, they do 'He said, I say' or something like that. He said that Enrique is bad and should be replaced I say that he can be good despite some stats lacking and does not need replacing. That sort of thing.

pnefc22 Posted February 24, 2009 Share Posted February 24, 2009 I might do I will decide when I get it. Just thought that I would get this back on the 1st page, and tell people that if they have spare time, that they don't have to think up of a new article as there are lots of articles on the site that can be added to or even started as some just have the name, so if any reads this then feel free to do something and your work will be much appreciated.

snootyjim Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 Just noticed an article on Steve Collis.

snootyjim Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 Alright, fair enough. I guess the main thing then is to make sure that everything is categorised properly - basically what I mean is that if we have an article on Ji-Park Sung which suggests that he isn't good enough for the squad and should be sold, then it should be specifically under Football Manager 2009 headings, else the article would need to be updated every single year. Having said that, it might just be easier to leave that kind of information out and keep it factual. Something else: I've added a Template:Main and used it in the Football Manager 2009 article (under the fake players controversy heading) to link to the Fake Players article, but I wanted to make the template allow for piped links, ie use the link Fake Players#Football_Manager_2009, but show the link as just Fake Players. However, I can't figure it out, so I've left it as is. If anyone understands wiki syntax better than me and can fix it, please do Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
