As I said in my edit summary, it does not matter to me whether Rolls Royce is classed as 'youth' or 'senior', the main thing is that it is listed. GiantSnowman 21:29, 2 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I wasn't seeking your preference, but rather your understanding as to whether there is a policy or guideline for including casual/non-formal appearances for another club (I use the term loosely). Given he worked at RR at the time, it isn't unreasonable to expect he may have been given the chance to play a few games with them during his recovery, but I wouldn't have thought this would count as an official designation within his youth career (if there is something somewhere written which says this is the case, i'll be corrected). I am keen to get this article to a good standard, but I also want it to be accurate. Thanks. Bungle ^{(talk • contribs)} 23:11, 2 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

We include all clubs a player played for, whether that was amateur or professional or otherwise. We do not include trials/training clubs. GiantSnowman 19:13, 3 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I still feel like it should be clubs a player was at more formally (I mean, the trials he seemed to have I suspect were more significant than any casual appearance made for RR during recovery), however i'll trust that this is something you perhaps know more about than me (although it sounds like there is no policy guideline on this specifically?). I still have some material to work through though none seems to touch any further on this. Bungle ^{(talk • contribs)} 19:57, 3 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

No, no formal policy, just nearly 2 decades of editing! GiantSnowman 21:07, 3 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

"just nearly 2 decades of editing" - you and me both! Alas, it seems from your response that the inclusion, or not, rests entirely at one's own preference and I don't presently consider it a significant enough issue to dispute over. There is plenty of material out there to otherwise build a solid article from. Bungle ^{(talk • contribs)} 22:24, 3 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
