message: In English we say La Liga, Copa del Rey, Ligue 1, etc.... Please keep my changes as commentators and people who follow the sport do not say the English translations but the proper names of the competitions. Thank you. Rupert1904 (talk) 16:07, 3 June 2010 (UTC)

message: I have removed material from  that does not comply with our policy on the biographies of living persons. Material in a biography must always be referenced from reliable sources, particularly negative material. Negative material that does not comply with that must be immediately removed. Note that the removal does not imply that the information is either true or false.
Please do not reinsert this material unless you can provide reliable citations, and can ensure it is written in a neutral tone. Please review the relevant policies before editing in this regard. Editors should note that failure to follow this policy may result in the removal of editing privileges.
Religious categories should only be added if the following criteria are met:

thread_title:  Links piping 

message: The page has been fully protected from changes for a period of four days to cool things off. There is currently an edit war between two editors. Available information so far is that he is convalescing from his operation and a decision has not been made, nor announced in reliable sources. Any discussions have to be civil and in the Talk page. Edit warring does not help the project. It's either protecting the article or blocking both of you for edit warring (both perilously close to violating 3RR). -- Alexf(talk) 20:07, 6 June 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: He's retired according to reliable sources. Also according to reliable sources he may be able to return to football, but that's a decision to be made in the future. That doesn't negate his retirement, it only means he may unretire in the future. The article can easily be updated should that happen. At present, he certainly isn't "a French footballer who plays as a left or central defender for FC Barcelona and the France national team". No other editor had a problem with the word retired (which I didn't add in the first place) prior to Marcospace removing it on 30 May, then edit warring over it ever since. 2 lines of K303 20:14, 6 June 2012 (UTC)

text: ESPN (already mentioned in the section above) disagree with your misuse of admin tools by the way. 2 lines of K303 20:16, 6 June 2012 (UTC)

text: Kindly justify which part of WP:PROTECT justifies your edit? There is no "content that clearly violates content policies, such as vandalism, copyright violations, or defamation of living persons", nor was the edit made in line with consensus. So please justify it, or revert your edit before this gets dealt with by other means. 2 lines of K303 20:21, 6 June 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: Misuse is your opinion. The place to complain is at AN by the way. You have to be happy that both of you were not blocked for 3RR violation. If he was retired, you would think that major press outfits like Marca.com and the French Sports press would have mentioned it. I could not find such a mention in either place, nor in the FC Barcelona's website. The article is now protected for four days. Please take the time to gather your sources to confirm his official retirement, or not, as the case may be, and to read about the problems with edit warring. -- Alexf(talk) 20:25, 6 June 2012 (UTC)

text: As per your question, the section is under WP:PREFER. -- Alexf(talk) 20:27, 6 June 2012 (UTC)
replies: text:  That is the question. There is no official confirmation that he's retired. Therefore, the page should be active as a player, but away for medical treatment. Later, if he confirmed his retirement, then yes the article is changed.-- Marcospace (talk) 6 June 2012 (UTC)
How about you too just chill, eh? Your arguing is pointless at this point of time...  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.183.220.241 (talk) 07:05, 9 June 2012 (UTC)
