Talk:Ali Dia

message: I'm new to this.  Not sure how to properly do this.  Dia only played a game for Saints.  Yet some joker went and put 172 and a bunch of goals.  I'm going to change that to 1 w/ zero goals.  ~~  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:346:1000:32A0:2791:A78C:42E3:2C09 (talk) 23:43, 8 March 2023 (UTC)

message: Hello everyone,
A long-form investigative article has just been published by Bleacher Report: http://thelab.bleacherreport.com/finding-ali-dia/
in it, the journalist has done a lot of work investigating Ali Dia's career and story, including meeting Ali Dia himself. Insofar as the article's sources are valid and the journalist can be trusted (I'm sure the journalist can be contacted for her sources and it seems entirely trustworthy), much more information can be used in the Wikipedia page and it directly disproves many parts of this. I think some rewriting needs to be done. --146.162.241.244 (talk) 16:54, 23 November 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: Problem is, the article is not conclusive about anything.  Everything is couched as hearsay.  For example, his sister says that he knew Weah, but his son did not.  Also, other people involved declined to comment or get back to the writer.  PSG/Southhampton did not respond.  The feeling I got from the article was that the author believed that Southampton played it up to save face, whereas Dia should never have played at such a high level and it was really Souness' fault .  However, none of this is conclusive.  I don't know how one would be able to use the article other than developing into a "but he said" type of thing, which I don't think helps the wiki entry all that much. 2601:645:8300:4F46:250C:389C:D236:8808 (talk) 00:11, 24 November 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: Even the interviewee comments that "it's been a while". There's little here than can be relied upon to disprove all the reliable sources already quoted in the Wikipedia article.   Sussexpeople (talk) 11:00, 24 November 2016 (UTC)
