Hello, I'm GiantSnowman. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Hannes Þór Halldórsson, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so! If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. GiantSnowman 08:51, 11 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The sources you have provided show that he played in some games; it does not confirm that he became the first-choice goalkeeper. The sources may imply that, but they do not state it directly - basically you are violating

WP:OR. If you believe that the information should be included, I suggest you start a discussion on the article talk page at Talk:Hannes Þór Halldórsson. Regards, GiantSnowman 15:53, 11 December 2012 (UTC)[reply

Nope, the current wording is a helluva lot better as it is

talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. You could also click on the signature button or located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when they said it. Thank you. --SineBot (talk) 16:46, 11 December 2012 (UTC)[reply

Hi Leifurf. I've gone and corrected the citation style for 1999 1. deild karla to the preferred way to do it. You're correct: page reviewers won't always mark this as a problem, because it is a much smaller problem than most other problems with new pages, and some (including me, sometimes) are inclined to let it slip past. If you can get into the habit of doing inline citations, that's great. If you can't, your contributions are still valuable and welcome. With good humor and all best --Lockley (talk) 00:33, 10 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at

I've explained myself on your talk page. His name is "Tór". finval (talk) 04:50, 7 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

If that is his correct name, then you should open a

WP:RM on the article talk page, not change the article without explaining why - hence why I sent you the above warning. Apologies if it seemed harsh. GiantSnowman 09:10, 7 April 2013 (UTC)[reply

There's no "if", as the Faroese alphabet should tell you. Disappointed, but not surprised, you reverted the edit again. finval (talk) 13:21, 7 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

This is very basic stuff, Wikipedia relies upon

WP:RM. Continuing to change the article currently constitutes vandalism. GiantSnowman 13:28, 7 April 2013 (UTC)[reply

Or put another way - some sources show "Þór", others show "Tór", others show "Thór" - you need to evidence the correct one on the article talk page. GiantSnowman 13:31, 7 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The official page of the Icelandic FA always reports the full, correct names of registered players. You're not going to approve of that? Well, okay. Have it your way. Also, Faroese people have (in almost every case) names containing letters from the Faroese alphabet, not one outside of their alphabet. That's common sense. I have provided both a good enough argument and a good enough source. However, you're completely putting me off wikipedia. I'm not going to do a thing about this article at the moment. I'm just annoyed by the incorrect information it possesses, but there you go. finval (talk) 13:45, 7 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Although, concerning the Icelandic FA, if players have names containing letters not in the Icelandic alphabet, the website usually uses letters in or historically in the Icelandic alphabet. Since "Þ" is a part of the Icelandic alphabet, though, they use that letter when appropriate. I can have no doubt about his name. You only do as an outsider. finval (talk) 13:49, 7 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

You will have to convince myself and others of this; as stated a number of times before, please use the article talk page, I have started a discussion there. GiantSnowman 13:56, 7 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The tables were created so that the tables can be updated with one edit instead of making 18 or 20 edits for one matchday. The seasons is over for both leagues. Therefore the tables can be placed in all articles instead of being in a template that shouldn't be edited anymore. Kingjeff (talk) 22:49, 25 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
