the pope by stating comments about the opinions and supposed motivations of other editor will be removed you are completely missing the point we have some people in the australian community both on and of wiki who only call the round ball game football or maybe association football and get offended upset angry by the word soccer due to previous negative connotations of the word others use the word football exclusively for another code most commonly australian rules football and only use soccer without any intended offence for the round ball game then you have another group who are happy to use either term depending on context or to avoid any possible ambiguity what proportion of the population is in each group depends on location age era ethnicity cultural background etc so there is no single consensus i'm for soccer if it avoids confusion of codes such as a in a multi sport stadium article or a suburb article but using football is ok if a dedicated article such as a team or player article all with a piped link to association football a term which is rarely used and can also be ambiguous in parts australia with australian rules football games played in competitions named associations such as the victorian football association extrapolating the no move decision in that rm about a single parent article to apply to every mention of the sport is invalid in my opinion achieving a true consensus is near impossible because we aren't a homogenous society user
