Did you read that in the programme from Ireland Germany?
It's sort of true, he played for Mick Wallace's Wexford League under 18 side, which won the inter league title in 2000. Those teams were the foundation stones of the youths, the two stars on the crest represent the 2 inter league titles won by Wallace's teams (well it's three now, not sure if he'll have another star on the crest).
Anyway we're claiming him. So there.
Anybody with a bit of Wikipedia know how care to add the team crest back on to the Wexford Youths page? It was deleted because of something to do with "Fair use rationale for Image". Don't really know how to go about fixing it myself and don't really have the time or moreover the patience to find out.
Also maybe check out my other question about the history that was deleted.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waterford_United
I updated the Waterford United one about a month ago...created a player profile for everyone on th squad and added pictures etc...Just noticed that the Crest has been deleted and a few profiles have been deleted!!!:( Still the page isn't too bad....
This is why you cant trust Wikipedia 100% and ALWAYS have to cross reference. Kevin Doyle played for Wexford League U18s a few years before Wexford Youths were even thought of. He has only played for Reading and the National team since Wexford Youths started.
There is a connection but thats all it is ..... a connection. To claim he is/was a Wexford Youths player is 100% untrue, a lie if you will.
Upload the logo again. Then edit the page and add this:
Code:
Crest of [[Wexford Youths F.C.]]
source: <insert as appropriate>
{{Non-free logo|football logos}}
It is asserted that the use of this image in articles pertaining to or in reference to Wexford Youths Football Club (WYFC) qualifies as fair use for the following reasons:
* It is a low-resolution copy of the logo;
* It does not affect the market for the original work — this is a logo created to promote a sports club, not a commercial work sold to the public for profit;
* By the nature of the image, no free alternative is possible;
* The logo is widely identified with WYFC via posters, kit, advertisements etc. and so the inclusion of the logo adds significantly to the articles in which it is used
[[Category:Sports logos]]
Are people still doing their best on this.
I was just looking through the Drogheda United squad and the player list hasn't been updated. Some of the players have now moved on. And some of the profiles are just poor as well. Not necessarily lazy, just stupid. See Gavin Whelan's profile.
