# Talk:Arthur Herbert Thompson

Hi Crispybeatle! You said you were the author of the original ES page, so I wanted to ask if you have a reference other than x.com. It's not a particularly reliable source, and for me this particular URL doesn't load at all. It would be nice to replace it with a better source, and one that works.  -- mikeblas (talk) 23:17, 13 April 2025 (UTC)

Hi! I actually have a newspaper that says the date of death of Sidney, which is the exact same date that is on the Twitter post, but I don't know how to link PDF files
Here is the newspaper from a file hosting site:

That doesn't load for me, either. You don't need to link to a PDF -- and shouldn't, if it's copyright isnt clear. Citing the newspaper itself would be quite adequate. -- mikeblas (talk) 17:11, 14 April 2025 (UTC)
Hmm I don't really know what's the problem and why it isn't working
But I don't remember where I got the newspaper from Crispybeatle (talk) 00:32, 15 April 2025 (UTC)
I finally got the PDF to load, and have corrected the reference in the article. -- mikeblas (talk) 01:13, 15 April 2025 (UTC)
I got the date wrong, it's the 14th. Also, it is in fact The Sevenoaks Chronicle

File:Arthur Herbert Thompson playing for River Plate 1914.png needs the appropriate US-PD tag
Explain what a Superclásico match is on its first appearance
A woman changing her last name to her husband's upon her marriage was the custom at that time in the English-speaking world.
The career statistics says that he scored 9 goals with Estudiantes, but the main body says 8.
After Thompson's death, she remained a widow until 1920 when she married Bertram L. Playfoot.[20] Like Thompson, all of his brothers went to the war, Cecil was the only one who survived it, but he died in 1925 at the age 32, on the same date as Thompson and Sidney. All of this is trivia and should be removed.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 19:13, 6 August 2025 (UTC)
"Explain what a Superclásico match is on its first appearance" could you elaborate? Crispybeatle (talk)  21:13, 8 August 2025 (UTC)
You mention the 1913 Superclássico about halfway through the article and then tell the reader what a Superclássico is near the end. Combine the explanation with the example of the 1913 match.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 01:02, 9 August 2025 (UTC)
Sorry, could you point out the parts? Crispybeatle (talk)  15:56, 15 August 2025 (UTC)
 Look in the River Plate paragraph.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 18:11, 16 August 2025 (UTC)
Do I have to elaborate on what a Superclasico is? I don't quite get what are you saying Crispybeatle (talk)  22:04, 16 August 2025 (UTC)
You didn't link the specific game in the lede, but you linked the general article there. Then you redundantly linked both terms in the River Plate section. Link the specific game in the lede as well as the general article on them in the lede.
Is there a typo in the total row for goals with Estudiantes de La Plata?
Spot-checked cites 9, 10, 13
In cite 14, I do not see Thompson listed on page 786--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 00:17, 28 August 2025 (UTC)
Ah thanks for clearing up
In citation 14 it's just stating the arrival of the battalion, I added it to give the reader a time frame of Thompson's arrival in France, I also fixed the total row in Estudiantes. Crispybeatle (talk)  00:31, 28 August 2025 (UTC)
The history shows your last edit on the 21st--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 10:15, 28 August 2025 (UTC)
Huh, that's weird, maybe I forgot to save my edit Crispybeatle (talk)  10:52, 28 August 2025 (UTC)
That's happened to me, more ---Oh, look! A ground hog!--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 11:04, 28 August 2025 (UTC)
