thread_title:  she's italian american 

message: what did she do then? which Team did she play for? On which money did she live? This article does not seem to give any information about her club (ont national team) career in that time...  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.253.143.96 (talk) 23:49, 17 July 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: I think in that period the USA national team held residential training camps that went on for months at a time and played 20 to 30 international games a year. Presumably the Football Association in America had the top players like Solo on some sort of central contract? Clavdia chauchat (talk) 17:40, 20 July 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Same seems to be the case for the other USA team members also. The only things that are mentioned are 2007 world cup and 2008 olympics. It also results an odd thing: most of them have more national team appearances than regular teams appearances. 82.141.64.160 (talk) 22:06, 27 May 2012 (UTC)

thread_title:  Good article, TNKS  

message: More detailed descriptions about the domestic violence charges was given out. Uhm, bear with me as I'm trying to learn wiki, but this ESPN article gives more details about the incident. The police report was also used, but I'm not too sure if we could take quotes from that or not. Anyways, I'm wondering if we could add what both sides claim happened or just quotes from the article or something. 
As the  is now it kind of leaves the reader wondering what happened to lead to those charges, but I dunno if it was written that way on purpose or not. Anyways, thanks for helpin' a noob editor like me out. Sethyre (talk) 22:04, 3 October 2015 (UTC)

thread_title:  Caps count 

message: My suggested criteria that we would use to evaluate whether Hope Solo (or any other footballer) is high importance would be something like the following:  
"A player is considered High Importance if he/she meets any of the following three criteria:
# Any player designated by FIFA as one of the greatest players of all-time or one of the greatest players over an extended period of time. This includes the FIFA 100, World Team of the 20th Century, FIFA World Cup All-Time Team, and the top three players on the FIFA Female Player of the Century.
# Any male footballer who has placed in the top three on at least two occasions in the FIFA World Player of the Year or FIFA Ballon d'Or ballots. Any female footballer who has placed in the top three on at least three occasions in the FIFA World Player of the Year ballots.
# Any male footballer who has placed on the FIFA World Cup Dream Team or All Star Team for at least two tournaments. Any female footballer who has won the World Cup Golden Ball as the tournament's best player."
Criterion #1 is something I'm raising for the fist time. Criterion #2 I raised previously, and criterion #3 was previously suggested by User:Hack, and I don't think any editors to date have condemned either of those criteria. For criterion #2 and #3, by adding the requirement that a player appears on the list at least twice, we're avoiding the situation of a player who has one brilliant year or one brilliant tournament, but overall not a brilliant career. 
I hope you will all give this proposal some thought, and ask you to spend at least a few moments evaluating the proposal on its merits before deciding you like it or hate it because Solo happens to fall on the "right" or "wrong" side of the line. Cheers! CUA 27 (talk) 02:25, 3 October 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: 1 & 2 assume Women's World Cup is of equal ranking to men's and has equal recognition in the eyes of all. Oppose on those grounds. Walter Görlitz (talk) 02:30, 3 October 2016 (UTC)
replies: text:  Your point re the men's tournament having greater viewership/support/notability than the women's tournament is a valid one. Not everyone is happy about that fact, but it is what it is. I have revised the criteria above in response. I don't think a proposal that has zero women's players will achieve consensus, and I don't think a proposal that splits men & women 50/50 will achieve consensus, so I'm trying to find a balance that not everyone here will like but hopefully most can agree it's at least not an unreasonable set of criteria. CUA 27 (talk) 02:53, 3 October 2016 (UTC)

text: Yes, there's a clear consensus (5:2). Per WP:BRD CUA 27 should reinstate Solo's high importance and take all this other stuff to the appropriate venue. Bring back Daz Sampson (talk) 07:35, 3 October 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: Yeah, the importance rating is not that important anyway. Time is better spent improving articles. -Koppapa (talk) 07:44, 3 October 2016 (UTC)
replies: text:  :WP:CONSENSUS is :WP:NOTAVOTE. The real issue is that Solo has no class when she complain about opposing players. That is why she should not be considered a world-class player. Walter Görlitz (talk) 13:50, 3 October 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: Yeah, like Ronaldo who bitched about the whole Iceland team. He's not world-class either..... The Rambling Man (talk) 16:58, 3 October 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: Agree with The Rambling Man. No need to have a broader vote here. Whether Solo's rant after losing was appropriate is irrelevant, we can't constantly update players importance up or down based on on-field actions (and we're assessing notability here, not sportsmanship). What is patently evident is that Solo has been amongst the very top elite of women's players for several years and that this is reflected by reliable sources. Not the biggest issue, but clearly should be high importance in my view. Macosal (talk) 23:29, 3 October 2016 (UTC)

text:  Agree that Ronaldo isn't a world-class player. Totally classless. Walter Görlitz (talk) 04:49, 4 October 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: The criteria at the WP:FOOTBALL assessment page refers to "Top-rated world-class players and managers." Solo (and Ronaldo) clearly meets this criteria. What you think of them as people is irrelevant. Hack (talk) 05:06, 4 October 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: Messi's tax fraud must lose him points on the 'Walter Görlitz morality index' too? Perhaps then, it's a good thing it only exists in Walt's imagination and not on Wikipedia! Bring back Daz Sampson (talk) 10:44, 5 October 2016 (UTC)
replies: text:  Declasse and being void of morals often go hand-in-hand, but don't conflate the two. Greed is not classy, and yeah, Messi goes down in my estimation as a result. Walter Görlitz (talk) 14:23, 5 October 2016 (UTC)
replies: text:  Okay... well since we're now clear that you've been talking about something else, CUA 27 hasn't got any support for his change. So I've reverted in line with the clear consensus here. Bring back Daz Sampson (talk) 20:00, 17 October 2016 (UTC)

message: The article says "The remark was made to Grant Wahl in the raw aftermath of the defeat, part of a wide-ranging interview in which she also praised her team's Scandinavian conquerors." The quote to Grant Wahl was NOT wide ranging and at no point in that quote was she complimentary to Sweden as described. Further the footnote for that sentence ( Lauletta, Dan (August 26, 2016). "Lauletta: Thoughts on the Hope Solo suspension". The Equalizer. Retrieved September 3, 2016.) does not support the main idea of the sentence.

message: Minor point, but should the opening sentence read as follows?
:Hope Amelia Stevens née Solo, known professionally as Hope Solo (born July 30, 1981)
Or at least something to that effect? My understanding is that we lead with legal name, maiden name, then commonly used name if it differs from the legal name? Ytoyoda (talk) 20:45, 15 June 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: Only if a RS for her purported legal name can be found and it is commonly used (:WP:COMMONNAME) in media publications. I have seen neither. On the latter, FIFA doesn't have that name and she did not have that name before being dropped by Seattle. Is there any proof that it's her "legal name"? Many women do not change their names after marrying and before making such a change we would need proof. :MOS:FULLNAME deals with this as well. Walter Görlitz (talk) 20:53, 15 June 2017 (UTC)
