Talk:Wayne Rooney/Archive 2

message: I was reading through the Bob Fitzsimmons article and came across this interesting information (if its true) theres no mention of it in Rooneys page maybe it should be added.--McNoddy 08:54, 5 January 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Bob Fitzsimmons is the Great Great Grandfather of the Manchester United footballer Wayne Rooney? 

message: Rooney is quoted as saying his use of prostitutes was the "best time of his life" of his life (in the Personal Life section). There should be a source for this if it's to stay in the article (the BBC news referenced at the end does not contain the quote). --89.234.99.92 21:20, 7 January 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Wayne Rooney Performance 

message: I've currently put the nomination for GA status on hold. After I've had a brief look though the firstfour paragraphs almost entirely lack citations and some of the article is NPOV. I'll be honest I'm not certain that all the problems I've seen will be sorted that quickly but I'm happy to give you a chance. Drop me a line if you've any sepcific questions but give me a few minutes to mark the areas that need changes or  markers. BigHairRef | Talk 16:45, 22 January 2007 (UTC)

message: Fucking hell, how many times, WAYNE ROONEY'S FAVOURITE RAPPER IS P.DIDDY, HENCE THE REASON HE HAS MET HIM AND PAID OVER £300K TO SEE HIM AT A GIG AND MEET HIM PERSONALLY. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 86.3.20.234 (talk) 22:45, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Cite? Frankly there's a hell of a lot of fancruft like this in this article which has no place in an encyclopaedia, and ought to be deleted anyway. -- Arwel (talk) 23:41, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: indeed so. I am still inclined to cut back all that overblown stuff about visits to prostitutes unless no-one has any objections (I've already mentioned this once) The Angel of Islington 09:24, 12 April 2007 (UTC)

message: Most of the people whoe edit this article are biased against Wayne Rooney-I don't know why when I put down factual astonishing things Rooney has done in his career someone removes it. I put down he is arguably the world's best young talent and you remove it yet on the Lionel Messi and Robinho  articles one is allowed to put that down. I create a headline on Wayne Rooney's style of play and you remove it instead of researching on the particular headline. You are clearly biased and don't like Wayne Rooney-its one thing to try and be fair and give all views and sides to the article, but its another thing to focus on the negative of his career. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Wikiaddict8962 (talk • contribs) 23:47, 9 March 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Biased! 

message: For the fourth time in the last 15 months I have semi-protected this article. The immediate trigger was the discovery that the heading on the infobox had been edited to "Wayne Marcus Rooney" (his middle name is Mark) and the volume of vandalism by non-signed-in editors recently has been such that this particular and very prominent vandalism was overlooked and allowed to stand for no fewer than 54 hours. Folks, it is time to recognise that this article is a vandal magnet, and it should remain PERMANENTLY semi-protected. -- Arwel (talk) 21:43, 19 March 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I am in favor of keeping it semi-protected for a very long time (e.g. a year). I can continue keeping an eye on the article, but the volume of vandalism is just too high. Gidonb 22:26, 19 March 2007 (UTC)
