Talk:St Johnstone F.C.

message: I propose trimming this list quite severely. What is genuinely notable about many of the players listed? Obviously this is a matter which comes down to individual opinion to some extent, but here is my proposal:
=== Keep ===
* Jimmy Benson
* John Brogan (record goal scorer)
* Alex Ferguson (now manager at arguably the biggest club in Britain if not the world; scored hat-trick at Ibrox)
* Ally McCoist
* Sandy McLaren (capped for Scotland)
* Drew Rutherford (record number of appearances)
* Sergei Baltacha (played at the highest level of the game i.e. won 47 full caps for the Soviet Union and made nearly 300 appearances for Dynamo Kiev)
Anyone else? Grievous Angel 10:30, 7 May 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: In the List of [blank F.C.] players articles around Wikipedia, the criterion includes those who have made 100 or more appearances for the club and those who have made a significant impact on the club.
With that, the following should also be included:
*Roddy Grant (goals haul a major bonus)
*John Lambie
*Alan Main (though he's about to become a current Saints player again)
*Kevin McGowne
*John McQuillan
*John O'Neil
*Allan Preston
*Jim Weir
*Paul Wright (goals haul a major bonus)
*Nick Dasovic
*Paul Cherry
*Andy Rhodes
*Danny Griffin
*George O'Boyle (goals haul a major bonus)

message: I've added a "to do" list after getting a few ideas from the York City F.C. article which gained featured article status. Please add any other ideas to it, or even better, work on the points already listed ;-). If anyone has a particular interest in working on any of the "to dos" leave a note here so others will know you are already covering that point.Grievous Angel 17:38, 10 June 2007 (UTC)

message: I've attempted to change the kit diagrams to match the current kit. If it can be improved any, please do so, I can't find the guide page to how it gets done. See the many photos on the official site for how the strips look in the "real world". Below is the code for how it was before (just in case it is needed in future):

thread_title:  Record defeat 

message: I am currently working on a "Managers of St Johnstone F.C." article. My main source is a series of articles from the official club match programmes of the late 1980s which takes it up to Alex Totten. This series of articles starts with David Taylor as the first manager which contradicts the current section on here which the new seperate article will greatly expand on. According to the current article, there was two managers before David Taylor, so which is correct? What was the actual status of Peter Grant and Jimmy Buchan? --Grievous Angel (talk) 06:34, 12 August 2012 (UTC)

message: I have been loathe to do this but the persistent vandalism by user 81.154.241.99 on this page suggests a form of temporary protection for the page is required. CoatbridgeChancellor (talk) 14:40, 9 July 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: Not done: requests for increases to the page protection level should be made at Wikipedia:Requests for page protection. jd22292 (Jalen D. Folf) (talk) 22:32, 12 July 2017 (UTC)

text: In addition, this is a WP:RPP case I've had before. Mostly, an administrator would decline your request citing there isn't enough activity to justify the protection. A better reason for protection would be if multiple IPs were vandalizing the page, preferably at least 3 IPs or new users. I am not sure how far back the admins look to determine this, though. jd22292 (Jalen D. Folf) (talk) 22:34, 12 July 2017 (UTC)

text: I have a feeling this IP is removing some players as the players he's removing are on loan to other teams. Then again, not all of the players they are removing are even on loan right now. jd22292 (Jalen D. Folf) (talk) 02:13, 13 July 2017 (UTC)

text: It seems the IP has stopped for now. I've posted warnings on their Talk page as it happened, and it seems that might have convinced them. I will keep this page on my Watchlist for a few more days to see what happens. jd22292 (Jalen D. Folf) (talk) 18:40, 15 July 2017 (UTC)

text: And now I'm done here. As it turns out, the IP who was removing players was correct in doing so. However, their removal was poor as they also did not notice a hidden table for players out on loan. I have taken the liberty of moving those players to the correct table. It's easier for all of us if they are not to be moved from this table until they return from loan. Requesting WP:CLOSE on this discussion. jd22292 (Jalen D. Folf) (talk) 04:03, 17 July 2017 (UTC)
