message: I'm sorry, but i don't know how to put these things after my paragraph... like identification i think...
I just want to say that Eduardo was born in Brazil ( I assume you already know that), and  I think that should be in the page as well...  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 200.102.213.209 (talk) 20:31, 26 February 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Eduardo nationality

message: Perhaps the editor(s) who keep adding an original analysis of the Eduardo "incident" could please read WP:OR, the bit that starts "Wikipedia does not publish original research or original thought. This includes unpublished facts, arguments, speculation, and ideas; and any unpublished analysis or synthesis of published material that serves to advance a position." There are blogs, forums, sites which welcome well-written submissions, many places to publish your analysis of why Eduardo sustained his awful injury; however, Wikipedia is specifically not one of those places. Please don't keep adding your piece; it will be removed in accordance with the policy referred to above. Thank you for your understanding. cheers, Struway2 (talk) 11:14, 5 August 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Original research 

message: Hi! I reverted this edit first, because I thought its a blanking of a vandal. But afterwards I've read the reason and the content properly and I reverted myself back asuming good faith. I am not really able to see the whole case, so it would be kind if someone could review this. Thanks in advance, abf /talk to me/ 14:59, 27 September 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I have re-added the text as it concentrates on the reaction to the tackle and the ramifications of the tackle on Taylor. This is a key moment in Taylor's football career, being one of the main reasons for his notability/notoriety. It is all well-cited, and to me, is not putting too much undue weight on the incident, though it could be trimmed a little bit. Woody (talk) 15:06, 27 September 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Revert 

message: The incident was a major event in Taylor's career, unfortunately, so the article has to cover it in enough detail so the reader can follow what happened, and it has to maintain a neutral point of view. I've now trimmed it to one para explaining what happened; three sentences of reactions; and one sentence about FIFA.
It can't leave out Wenger's initial reaction, or other adverse reaction, or the death threats, or McLeish, Bendtner and Bruce's pro-Taylor statements. They're all relevant. Kovac was the Croatia international captain, and what he said reflected a widespread reaction in Croatia; something may have been lost in translation, but there's no evidence it was. Agreed the journalists bit is excessive detail. Blatter's involvement needs to stay, because the FA refusing to increase the ban despite FIFA getting involved is directly relevant to the effect of the incident on Taylor's career.

thread_title:  Compromise? 

message: I think now is the correct time to remove this information. Many of the links to the incident are broken. Indeed Birmingham player Liam Ridgewell has had his leg broken but that's not in his bio. There is no consistency so I see no reason for not removing it. 83.104.51.181 (talk) 09:44, 11 August 2009 (UTC)
