Reliable sources

planespotters.net is not a reliable source WP:RS. Please see WP:SPS and/or WP:UGC and feel free to ask if you have any questions. 10mmsocket (talk) 12:59, 5 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not add or change content, as you did at Buzz (Ryanair), without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources to see how to add references to an article. Thank you. Danners430 _{tweaks made} 22:37, 5 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

added a source which states that lauda, which is under the exact same group and operates the exact same way as buzz and malta air, uses fr. if you want another source, you can go on flightradar or any flight tracking softeware and look at any regularly scheduled buzz/malta air/lauda flight. Finlayy (talk) 22:54, 5 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I checked and it clearly failed WP:V. Sorry but the source only mentioned Buzz at the very end and did not say anything about the callsign. 10mmsocket (talk) 06:40, 6 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Alexander Isak

Good Evening Finlayy,

Regarding the Alexander Isak situation what does this mean then “ Consensus at Wikipedia articles may determine that the player should be reflected in the article as being a member of the team, even prior to an official announcement by the team.” just to clear up the misconception from my end. thanks. Nxypr (talk) 00:10, 1 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Consensus generally takes days to weeks on talks pages to reach an agreement where an admin can make a ruling - generally based on my experience the club announcement comes way faster. No one ever really tries to start the talk because they know the club announcement will eventually come anyway. As we know, it's deadline day so we can really expect the club announcement within the next 18 hours. Hope I could be of help, thanks :) Finlayy (talk) 00:16, 1 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Football infobox live update

Hello, I'm Mattythewhite. I just wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions were not quite right. Please only update statistics within the infobox of a footballer once the match the player was involved in has concluded. This is to help avoid the stats being updated again by another editor once the match has finished, and to avoid having to undo the update in the eventuality that the match is abandoned.

If you have any questions about this, feel free to leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Mattythewhite (talk) 13:59, 14 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]
