[edit ]Information icon Please do not add or change content, as you did at Buzz (Ryanair), without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources to see how to add references to an article. Thank you. Danners430 tweaks made 22:37, 5 July 2025 (UTC) [reply ]
- added a source which states that lauda, which is under the exact same group and operates the exact same way as buzz and malta air, uses fr. if you want another source, you can go on flightradar or any flight tracking softeware and look at any regularly scheduled buzz/malta air/lauda flight.

- I checked and it clearly failed WP:V. Sorry but the source only mentioned Buzz at the very end and did not say anything about the callsign. 10mmsocket (talk) 06:40, 6 July 2025 (UTC) [reply ]
Alexander Isak
[edit ]Good Evening Finlayy,
Regarding the Alexander Isak situation what does this mean then " Consensus at Wikipedia articles may determine that the player should be reflected in the article as being a member of the team, even prior to an official announcement by the team." just to clear up the misconception from my end. thanks. Nxypr (talk) 00:10, 1 September 2025 (UTC) [reply ]
- Consensus generally takes days to weeks on talks pages to reach an agreement where an admin can make a ruling - generally based on my experience the club announcement comes way faster. No one ever really tries to start the talk because they know the club announcement will eventually come anyway. As we know, it's deadline day so we can really expect the club announcement within the next 18 hours. Hope I could be of help, thanks :) Finlayy (talk) 00:16, 1 September 2025 (UTC) [reply ]
Football infobox live update
[edit ]Information icon Hello, I'm Mattythewhite. I just wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions were not quite right. Please only update statistics within the infobox of a footballer once the match the player was involved in has concluded. This is to help avoid the stats being updated again by another editor once the match has finished, and to avoid having to undo the update in the eventuality that the match is abandoned.
If you have any questions about this, feel free to leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Mattythewhite (talk) 13:59, 14 September 2025 (UTC) [reply ]

Introduction to contentious topics
[edit ]
You have recently edited a page related to the Arab–Israeli conflict , a topic designated as contentious . This is a brief introduction to contentious topics and does not imply that there are any issues with your editing.
A special set of rules applies to certain topic areas, which are referred to as contentious topics. These are specially designated topics that tend to attract more persistent disruptive editing than the rest of the project and have been designated as contentious topics by the Arbitration Committee. When editing a contentious topic, Wikipedia's norms and policies are more strictly enforced, and Wikipedia administrators have an expanded level of powers and discretion in order to reduce disruption to the project.
Within contentious topics, editors should edit carefully and constructively, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and:
- adhere to the purposes of Wikipedia;
- comply with all applicable policies and guidelines;
- follow editorial and behavioural best practices;
- comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and
- refrain from gaming the system.
Additionally, you must be logged in, have 500 edits, and have an account age of 30 days, and you are not allowed to make more than 1 revert within 24 hours on any page within this topic.
Editors are advised to err on the side of caution if unsure whether making a particular edit is consistent with these expectations. If you have any questions about contentious topics procedures, you may ask them at the arbitration clerks' noticeboard or you may learn more about this contentious topic. You may also choose to note which contentious topics you know about by using the {{Ctopics/aware }} template.
