Talk:Harry Kewell

message: I've just been scanning through all the anonymous IP addresses that have been vandalising this page recently. It is interesting to note that they are all from Australia :-/ Anyway...
multiple offenders include (click dates for diff):
60.227.199.20, 
*15 June
*19 June 
203.222.133.10, 
*16 June
*19 June
*20 June
*22 June
(User also has a noteable number of vandalism-type edits to a large number of pages)
Given the identical nature of the edits I would assume that both IP addresses are the same person, perhaps at home and at work. Either way I would assume there is a fair case for banning IP 203.222.133.10. aLii 10:42, 19 June 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Sick of Vandalism

message: Considering Australia's recent win against Uruguay in the World Cup qualifier in Sydney, the Kewell article and those on players such as Mark Viduka and goalie Mark Schwarzer plus many other big names will receive more attention from readers and so they also need more attention from editors. Thanks to anyone who has time - amongst exams and end of year rush to edit these! Donama 00:40, 18 November 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: I have edited the Kewell profile. The article as it stands is messy and very unencyclopedic (if that is a word). Too much talk of Australias qualification for the world cup, these details should be included in a 'Australias Road to World Cup' article or something. Remember most people viewing this page will not be Australian and will be more interested in viewing history regarding his club football. Use existing players article as a guide.

thread_title:  Citation for best ever player? 

message: OK, so I've been going through the Trivia section looking for some citations to back up the remarks and I'm stuck on
*The leading scorer of left footed goals one
*The Ronaldo has "never heard of" one
Can anyone help out here or suggest where those bits of information come from? Otherwise I think I'll probably delete them within a few weeks. aLii 09:27, 27 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Regarding the Ronaldo comments: http://www.dailytelegraph.news.com.au/story/0,20281,18853850-5001023,00.html He never specifically says that, but he does say he only knows of one Australian player. 203.192.64.186 12:45, 27 June 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  Add link to Politix website 

message: the article's just been changed, after the Galatasary website had splashed that Kewell had signed for them, now according to FoxSports or, more to the point, the man and his agent themselves, he is *not* going to Galatasaray.  Was the Galatasaray site hacked?  Here's the link to the story:
* Kewell 'not going to Istanbul' FoxSports News online Retrieved on July 5th, 2008Wanderer (talk) 22:08, 4 July 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: The article has been protected so that only established users can edit, but the article has now had all the Galatasaraay material removed. Surely that is notable.Londo06 08:54, 5 July 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: We just have to make sure that we don't become a news source, and only update with reliable info. I think we're OK saying that Galatasary say they have signed him, and his agent says that they haven't, but we shouldn't start updating with 'such and such reports this', or 'so and so reports that', or it will just become a gossip article. Ged UK (talk) 09:14, 5 July 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: You'll agree that it certainly is noteworthy. The current edit also fits with the format of existing players. I got the article protected so that the article did not change every five minutes, seems a good edit now, language could be tidied up perhaps.Londo06 09:17, 5 July 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Well, we certainly have to say which club a player plays for, and in circumstances like this we have to make clear the uncertainty. I think it's good as it is atm. Ged UK (talk) 09:19, 5 July 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Yeah agree, it's a situation that doesn't come up too often, and it seems to deliver the facts without becoming a newspaper piece.Londo06 09:22, 5 July 2008 (UTC)

all news agents say Kewell is in Galatasaray. where is the problem?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Qwl (talk • contribs) 22:39, 4 July 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Well it seems his agent is playing silly buggers because it is pretty clear he is in Instanbul. There is a video interview of him on this page with a Galatasaray scarf around his neck - Link Jared Wiltshire (talk) 04:11, 5 July 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  Harry Kewell is in Galatasaray Squad 

message: I am tired of re-editing career statistics of this page.
Everybody PLEASE do not enter total goal count in Personal Information table. That statistic only counts for domestic leauge matches and goals.
As a diehard Galatasaray and Harry Kewell fan, I always edit the page just after I arrive at home (back from the stadium).
So please do not bother yourselves, as you distort the correct information while you're trying to help. 
If you're in doubt you can always see the latest information about Harry Kewell's game statistics here:

thread_title:  Career Statistics Mistake 

message: I see that some arrogant but ignorant people (from England as I've checked the IP) distort the page as they correct the language, from so called pigin English to real English.
First of all: It's pidgin, not pigin. (You love to despise, but you even don't know how to spell correctly.)
And another important point: Register yourself before you change the page. Or I'll revert the vandalism you caused every time.
Let's check the changes one on one:
(I won't even try to tell the the difference between crowded and "large crowd". Is "crowded" really pidgin English? Or changing "the assist" to "an assist". There's only one assist per goal, so "the" should be fine. Anyway...)
:We say is one of the most favourite players among Galatasaray supporters
:The British is one of the more popular players among Galatasaray supporters
::I have never seen anything sillier than this one in my life. "more popular"? More than what? There are a few favourite players for us, and he is one them, if not the most favorite one.
:We say as he is shown love and excessive support in every game
:The British as he has shown determination and team work in every game
::Here's a grammar lesson for you (don't worry, it's pro bono) 
::Supporters show their love to him => (Passive) He is shown love.
::She ironed the clothes => (Passive) The clothes were ironed.
::Also another silly point: We love Kewell but he hasn't shown determination or team work so far. So your sentence is full of bullshit.
There are other changes which weren't deadly necessary (like removing the word "also") or correcting any grammar.
But I don't have time to argue about them all.
