message: In English we do not say Spanish League or Spanish Cup or even Spanish Super Cup.  But we call them La Liga, Copa del Rey, and Supercopa de Espana.  Also when watching a football game from Spain in the English language commentators, on Sky Sports, ESPN, BBC, ITV, FSC, Gol TV, etc..., refer to these competitions by their correct names.  Therefore I ask you keep my revision of the honours section. Rupert1904 (talk) 16:12, 3 June 2010 (UTC)

replies: text: English reports seem to just list him as plain "Xavi" (see here for example). I think Xavi is fine for the time being.

thread_title:  Xavi or Xavi Hernández? 

message: This guy is the best passer in the world and makes countless assists every game. Surely there should be an assist section on his appearance table at the bottom that's what his game is all about honestly if you removed the goals and replaced it with assists lol it would even make more sense.
I totally agree someone add his assists at least for 2008-2009 there are easy to find.
Xavi was La Liga's highest assisting player with 20. Xavi was also the top assister in the Champions League with 7.

message: Catalonia is in Spain. Removing this fact is considered vandalism. Use this section in talk to discuss if you have a problem with this fact and obtain consensus. Any change to place of birth without discussion and consensus will be considered vandalism and could lead to a block.
This subject has been discussed several times. Consensus was to leave only Catalonia, which is the region of birth. People say he is a Spanish player, since it is clear that he was born in Spain.
raulseixas (talk) 30 October 2010 (UTC)
::Yes but... Catalonia is a region of Spain. Consensus can not change or hide FACTS. And the fact is that in Wikipedia, the little local region of Catalonia is an invented state of Olimpics, or change its history to benefit secessionist little 25% of its population, or the money that secessionist local governor gives to Wikipedia to do this awful things is a shame... so please, put "Catalonia, Spain" in that photo of Xavi wearing a NON-official local regional casual sport training T-shirt. That cases of enciclopaedic corrupption are a shame for wikipedia. Thanks. And Catalonia is a region of Spain. Wikipedia must hear 90% of catalan-speakers, and not the money.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.9.201.107 (talk) 06:26, 14 April 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree with this.

message: in the right side bar it says: Senior career* 1998–	Barcelona	360	(36)

message: It seems that there could be misunderstanding, Thus Barça has not yet announced about his departure nor his contract termination and they only said that Xavi is free to choose either stay or leave which is not 100% qualified by Barcelona, However there are reports claims that Alves confirms Xavi's departure which is not true news yet. Therefore please take this into consideration to change the section. Thank you — Prince Sulaiman (talk) 08:27, 11 July 2014 (UTC)

message: Hello fellow Wikipedians,
I see there is a lot of changes regarding Xavi's managerial status. Please can we protect the page until this is officially confirmed or denied by both club and manager?
169.1.95.55 (talk) 20:22, 28 October 2021 (UTC)
thread_title:  Semi-protected managerial status request 

message: The Xavier (give name) article is clear, the (central) catalan pronounciation, which is the relevant one given that Xavi is catalan is  [ʃəβiˈe]. The spanish pronounciation is [xaˈβjeɾ]. So while the phonetics on the page are (more or less) correct (i'd remove the final rhotic in in xavier, given that xavi himself wouldn't pronounce it), it is incorrectly labelled as the 'spanish pronounciation'. 
However his paternal last name Hernandez is of course spanish and pronounced as such, so relabelling the whole name phonetics as 'Catalan Pronounciation' would not be strictly correct, the the first name and (I believe) maternal surname are catlan, the paternal surname is Spanish, so how to label the phonetic transcription is not obvious. I think 'Catalan Pronounciation' is more appropriate if something concise is preferred, or one could simply remove the language. DoodleKaboodles (talk) 21:45, 27 January 2024 (UTC)
thread_title:  Pronounciation notation is poorly labelled 

message: Officially, Xavi Hernández is the FC Barcelona head coach until 30 June 2024 (in addition, tomorrow there is still a match versus Sevilla FC that he will lead) yet. Regardless of whether FC Barcelona makes Hansi Flick official (surely it will be so according to the news in the sports newspapers), Hansi Flick will not officially be the head coach until 1 July 2024, which is when the new season begins. As can be seen in FC Barcelona's official Xavi statement: "He will cease to be head coach at the end of the season" (and not immediately). So please, don't remove Xavi until 1 July 2024.
