pnefc22 Posted March 19, 2009 Share Posted March 19, 2009 And, so would you have to add me, ssestig, smallmac and the other contributors of this thread as admins so that we could edit? Hopefully, we don't get to that situation and the spammers get bored with spamming I might make some international tournament articles. I will do 10 stadium articles tomorrow and maybe a tounament article. Plus, some bits and bobs of articles which I have not finished. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ahmufcwafc Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 Just a thought regarding the stadia articles - How about we just leave the stadium profiles in the page of the club/nation that plays there? Let's face it, there's more or less the same information about the stadia in the stadium pages as there in the club pages Also, regarding player profiles - Is the aim of having a profile for every player realistic? Personally, I feel we should only have a page on players infamous to the FM/CM series, like Tó Madeira. Otherwise it'd esentially just be a waste of time because wikipedia has all that information & more anyway. I'd like to hear what you all think about it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm new to the series (FM08), the only parts I can contribute to the wiki is MLS stuff... I probably won't have much time to contribute to the wiki anyways...too busy these days.

ahmufcwafc Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 Well, we probably won't have every single player in FMWiki anyways. Well, what I saw on the introduction section of the player profiles page was that the aim is to have every single player's profile on the site. Needless to say, I took it out since we only have about 10 at the moment Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
arsenal_2111 Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 Cheers for that Jammy One question though, are you sure it was BenArsenal that made it. Looking back on the history, it initially said that tcoleman1 made it. tcoleman1 may have been the person who made the page? It was definately BenArsenal who made it, I did a search in the International Management thread and found it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

pnefc22 Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 Who changed the 'Stadiums/Stadia category so that it was listed in Alpabetical order? I think that this is a bad idea. As, before you could read what leagues and which club it belonged to and was much easier to find a specific club with. I think that once we get lots of stadium articles it would look bad. So, my idea is that we have them categorised into League Stadium pages, which have all the clubs in that league's stadiums in. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
