Why was the olympiacos badge deleted?Rivaldo is palying there and it should appear as long as he stays there.
I reverted your edit. I'm sure you mean well, but this article is supposed to be a biography on Rivaldo in general - the badge puts too much emphasis on Olympiakos imo. If other editors agree/disagree with my reason to revert then let us know. Igorrr13:14, 3 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
So if we put all the badges of the teams he used to play for in row plus olympiakos badge it would be better?
That would be more representative of his entire career, I agree. As long as the emphasis is on the player as opposed to one club, then anyone should be able to contribute to the article as they see fit. Although putting club logo's into articles seems inconsistent with other football biographies so I don't know if and how other users will react. Igorrr14:29, 4 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
That's not a very conclusive reference. The front page of the same site[2] says "Welcome to the official website of VITOR BORBA FEREIRA RIVALDO". Here is a reputable site that indicates Rivaldo is not part of his full name.[3]--SaskatchewanSenator (talk) 09:30, 15 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I have removed the small, illiterate assertion that this player has joined Leicester City FC. It appeared to be a 'practical joke' with out any joke involved, and even if meant sincerely, it was completely unsubstantiated.Grubstreet (talk) 18:39, 17 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
The third paragraph is a complete mess there are no citations at all, how is a decision controversial when is supported by CAS, furthermore there is no greek football association just the hellenic football federation Mdkats (talk) 13:36, 22 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
This is award award of Australian show Cup Fever for the 2010 world cup with nomination for players on their acting abilities when the fall over. the winner will be rewarded on the last show. Rivaldo was chosen as the name owner for is acting abilites in the 2002 world cup v Turkey.
Here I will explain my revert of the edits of the IP user.
The edits done by the IP user contain numerous weasel words, such as "superbly", "superb", "dominant" etc. To maintain a neutral point of view, the existence of such words is clearly unacceptable.
What is more, most of his edits are not supported by any sources, such as Rivaldo being the highest paid player in the world. WP:BLP has the following to say about the matter:
"All quotations and any material challenged or likely to be challenged must be attributed to a reliable, published source using an inline citation. Contentious material about living persons that is unsourced or poorly sourced—whether the material is negative, positive, neutral, or just questionable—should be removed immediately and without waiting for discussion. Users who constantly or egregiously violate this policy may be blocked from editing."
Therefore, the IP user bears the burden of finding the sources to support his edits. Per WP policy I cannot be faulted for reverting his unsourced edits.
The IP user did support one sentence (on Rivalso scoring a poker) with a source, but it does not qualify as a reliable source. The source provided is an article written by a user on a forum/whatever with no credibility. I have attempted to find reliable sources on this but to no avail.Craddocktm (talk) 03:40, 15 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, and there are still some left in the article - e.g. ;the zenith and the nadir' - the problem with Wikipedia articles on footballers is that they are often written by people aspiring sports journalists who are practising journalistic writing and not the encyclopediac style Wiki articles should follow. 209.35.94.61 (talk) 19:58, 21 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hello, I've been in recent edit war in this article with user:Marcospace and his several ip's. At the beginning it was fun, but now i'm tired of this and want to end it. Conflict is about 2 details: Rivaldo's alternate position and his present club Sao Paulo playing years. He is continuously undoing long standing registry about Rivaldo's alternate position as a second striker, but in these:[4][5][6] reliable sources you can see that irregularly he can be attached as a second striker. Also his new club loaned him from Mogi Mirim for a 1 year and another year optional[7]. That doesn't mean that user can remove『–』from『2011–』until contract is expired, not renewed, or terminated, right?
Thanks. Good luck! 95.68.54.202 (talk) 00:02, 22 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
User Marcospace is still editing previous mentioned edition and isn't explaining it here for more than 20 days. It's not the way how to get consensus.46.109.56.5 (talk) 01:30, 16 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I am just tired of this. Several portugese language country ip's all this time are undoing discussed content without consensus made here.95.68.63.16 (talk) 22:10, 19 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Please put some protection on this article.95.68.63.16 (talk) 11:33, 21 May 2011 (UT
