User talk:GiantSnowman

Happy 2026 GS, keep up the good work here and keep it up outside!

Could this (please see https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Pablo_Felipe&diff=prev&oldid=1330538368) be another wrong (and it was undiscussed!) page move by this user? If i remember it well, they were forbidden from engaging in such actions back in the day. Also, if you notice in the pertinent article, you'll notice as the vast majority of the available sources call him simply "Pablo".

You have been briefed, cheers! RevampedEditor (talk) 16:12, 3 January 2026 (UTC) [reply ]

@RevampedEditor: thanks for the heads up, I have reverted the move, and remind @Ortizesp: to use WP:RM for page moves like this... Giant Snowman 11:08, 4 January 2026 (UTC) [reply ]

Certainly agree the YOB should stay there at this point.

When I had a look in the search bar for all football Pablos with one name after noticing this discussion, I noticed two of them born in 1991, one of them had just the year disambiguation which I felt should have had a month added to it as well and the other one had the month already there but may have been incorrect. Therefore I boldly moved those pages and also used Pablo (footballer) as a new disambiguation page due to the high number of articles titled in this format. Hopefully no damage has been done to any affected page. Iggy (Swan) (Contribs) 12:39, 4 January 2026 (UTC) [reply ]

Hi GiantSnowman! I became aware of a dispute regarding Luke O'Nien's position via an edit filter false positive. I don't follow association football, but I assumed that the player's current Roster profile at the Sunderland page would be an authoritative link. That profile does mention that he's a "versatile" player who plays different positions, but lists Centre-back as his primary position. Two other sources ESPN and premierleague.com list him as midfielder. Is there a rule-of-thumb for determining what position should appear in the infobox and lede?

Hi GiantSnowman. Thank you for your work on Andrew Loomis (drummer). Another editor, Scope creep, has reviewed it as part of new pages patrol and left the following comment:

Ref 3 doesn't seem to work.

The information I gave was correct, But Sabah FC didn't announce it yet. But maybe it's confirmed because the transfer window just opened and I just saw him training in Sabah FC Facebook, Please reply ASAP. Thanks HaikalMalaysia (talk) 07:47, 6 January 2026 (UTC) [reply ]

I'm not GiantSnowman but I can answer your question. Of The information I gave was correct and But Sabah FC didn't announce it yet, only one statement can be accurate. We can't be sure a player has signed until a club involved in a transfer has made an official announcement so we should always wait for such an official announcement before we update Wikipedia articles to reflect a transfer.

Thanks for replying my message. I understand. Thank you for noticing me. Sincerely, Muhammad Haikal. A.K.A HaikalMalaysia. HaikalMalaysia (talk) 13:24, 6 January 2026 (UTC) [reply ]

Hello. This might not be the correct place to ask, but I was wondering if there's a Manual of Style for AfD topic sorting. ⋆。 ̊꒰ঌ Clara A. Djalim ໒꒱ ̊。⋆ 10:06, 6 January 2026 (UTC) [reply ]

Pretty sure this (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/~2025-41422-91) is this utter nuisance (remember the shenanigans at Josué Pesqueira?) Hapoel Be'er Sheva fan, where Mr. Pesqueira once played. Also, in June 2022 you warned this person for removal of references in Miguel Vítor (please see https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Assaf_Official&diff=prev&oldid=1092931265).

Look at the stunt the aforementioned IP pulled at Hélder Lopes, ANOTHER Be'er Sheva player (here https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=H%C3%A9lder_Lopes_(footballer)&diff=prev&oldid=1331417318). We seem to have a pattern no? List of "contributions" seem to indicate only players from that club. Oh, here's another IP with same M.O. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/~2025-38560-43)!

Attentively, you have been briefed. RevampedEditor (talk) 13:53, 6 January 2026 (UTC) [reply ]
