thread_title:  How Rude 

message: Unfortunately I've heard the contrary of what the article states on the matter of Cristiano's favorite soccer team as a child. It has been said that he joined Sporting because it was the only team he wished to play for, being that it was his favorite. Teams such as Boavista and Oporto did look at him but he unanimously decided to join Sporting. Being that Sporting and Benfica are rivaling teams, I really think more research should be done to guarentee that the right information is up there. Even little facts like that can make a huge impact and difference. (this information is both stated in the reference to his childhood and in the trivia section).

thread_title: Cheating

message: All,     
You'll notice that a search on 'Ronaldo' in Wikipedia takes you straight to the page of the Brazilian Milan player (admitedly more famous worlwide). However I would argue that regardles of who is best know, both these players are famous in their own right.   Therefore a search on 'Ronaldo' should take you straight to the disambiguation page so that you can then choose which of the Ronaldos you want to read about. 
I've made a comment on the 'other' Ronaldo talk page about this so I'd appreciate if any of you could also visit the talk page so that we can reach a consensus on this.    Cheers, (Dinosv 12:44, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

message: Both "incidents" (nistelroy and rooney) are pointless media speculations, in both cases no one truly "involved" confirmed any kind of "incident" 
The "world cup incident" section seems to be way taking up way more space than it should. More importantly, it mentions that there was speculation that Ronaldo affected the sending-off, while there is no description of the event itself, Rooney's stamping and pushing of Ronaldo (was that Ronaldo's fault really?) It just focuses on how the English media used him a scapegoat without taking an objective view of the event itself. The section seems pretty biased and way too big. Xioyux 02:04, 12 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text:  That section is a disgrace.  The man is somehow responsible for Wayne Rooney being a loose cannon?  Look at this article in other languages and you will find little if any mention of this "incident".  Only the most bitter England fans in denial and muck-raking journalists would come to this absurd conclusion.  This section doesn't even describe the event - it simply suggests Christiano was at fault.  Look at the YouTube video one more time and I defy you to put the blame on anyone other than Rooney.  Ronaldo isn't even within 12 feet of Rooney when the offense is committed.  Please grow up folks. - Plasticbadge 23:59, 5 May 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Definitely. This is Rooney's incident not Ronaldo's. Deman7001 02:16, 2 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: This section should be no longer than a couple of sentences. This incident is now long forgoten and as mentioned above had nothing to do with Ronaldo, although the press backlash afterwards might be worth mentioning if only to point out that Ronaldo was made a scapegoat for Rooney's sending off. If I don't hear any objections about this over the next few days I'll shorten the section myself. (Dinosv 13:47, 18 June 2007 (UTC)

message: I think there's too much emphasis on this current season. He has been at Manchester United for over four years and yet under "Manchester United" over half of the content describes his form this season. It's not even the end of the season yet and it's already cluttered. In a few years time this article will be a novel. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 80.0.226.75 (talk) 02:13, 17 April 2007 (UTC)

message: It's quite clear that Ronaldo is one of the,uglyest people on earth if not the outright best, player in the world. There's no doubt at all. So why is this not at all mentioned? I know it's minor but he's certainly deserving of it...
