Talk:Stephen Appiah

message: Why is he listed as having played youth football for a small-town club in England? As far as I can see he started his career in Ghana and never played as a youth in England - am going to remove the link as it looks like spam or someone's idea of a joke.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.7.24.105 (talk) 18:17, 6 January 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Bishops Stortford? 

message: Someone has added a passage saying he has turned down a 6 month deal with Spurs to sign a two year contract with Celtic "but its yet to be confirmed". There is nothing in the press to suggest this is true and no official announcement to back this up.  Adding unsubstantiated rumours is hardly suitable for an encyclopedia entry - I'm gonna removing the Celtic speculation, if it proves to be proved correct whoever added it can re-edit the page.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.0.38.106 (talk) 00:10, 14 January 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Celtic Move? 

message: YouTube
 This article is one of thousands on Wikipedia that have a link to YouTube in it.  Based on the External links policy, most of these should probably be removed.  I'm putting this message here, on this talk page, to request the regular editors take a look at the link and make sure it doesn't violate policy.  In short: 1. 99% of the time YouTube should not be used as a source. 2. We must not link to material that violates someones copyright.  If you are not sure if the link on this article should be removed, feel free to ask me on my talk page and I'll review it personally.  Thanks. ---J.S (t|c) 15:13, 6 November 2006 (UTC)

message: A friend linked me to something saying that the deal to take Appiah to Schalke was done, so I edited the page accordingly. Minutes later I discovered that the story was false, so I reverted my changes. Apologies. Nach0king 21:19, 27 July 2007 (UTC)

message: Any link for the Arsenal story? Why do people change players' clubs on wikipedia without sourcing information?? What is the point. Saying that he plays for Arsenal doesn't make it any more or less likely to happen, it just annoys people.   —Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.42.150.218 (talk) 15:50, 3 September 2008 (UTC)

message: I came here in response to a notice posted on the NPOV noticeboard.  This article is written in a WP:NPOV way, but fortunately, it could be easily fixed!
I put a fan page tag on this page in response to phrases such as "A strong and tireless midfielder, with a notable athleticism..." While these things may be true, information posted on Wikipedia must be sourced to independent reports. Without sources, statements that praise the article's subject should be written in a neutral way. Thanks! Blue Rasberry 13:59, 2 June 2010 (UTC)
