Edin Džeko has 1,004 games, Elektrotehnicar07 (talk) 12:10, 1 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Elektrotehnicar07: Hello! First, thanks a lot for the information. Secondly, I merged this section with the previous one, which is also about the same player's potential inclusion in the list with the most official appearances; let's be neat, so to not get lost searching in the future. Now, lastly, does he have 1,004 matches because you say so, or do you have any source(s) for this claim? By the way, just noting that RSSSF has recently added him with a total of 991 matches until 21 August 2024 (direct link here), and since then he has played twice in the Turkish top league (Süper Lig), which makes the total up to 993. According to the sources I have, he has played in at least 994 matches for the time being, so he cannot currently be added to the list. P.S. I: In case the 1,004 total comes from WP, I suggest reading WP:NOTSOURCE. P.S. II: Thanks again for informing about this player, but I am aware of this player, and he still hasn't 1,000 matches, at least sourced ones, as there are matches with lineups missing and/or a reference he played in them missing. If reliable sources found claiming more matches, he will surely be added to the list sooner. Have a nice day! Kind regards, Lorry Gundersen (talk) 14:48, 1 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

List of men's footballers with 1,000 or more official appearances

When talking about how many goals do Cristiano has, Wikipedia always uses the senior appearances, and do not take into account the goals with youth Portugal. Why should be different for appearances? FCBWanderer (talk) 16:58, 9 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@FCBWanderer: Hello again! Well, since we are talking about footballers' bio-articles in WP, you also see youth Portugal internationals in the infobox. Also, there is a big difference between statistics and journalism; the references in WP bodies and intros texts are coming from media outlets, e.g. like Marca, A Bola, et c., which do indeed most times do not include youth internationals, but all football databases (DBs) do include youth internationals, and this is why a statistical list also includes them. As I said, please seek for consensus in WP:Footy if you think the list should change, but you are always welcome to make a sublist in another section in the article, and Ι inform you there have been such talks before and the list didn't change.

Nene

Hello on footballdatabase he have 55 games but that is what i know for now.

Hello, on Palmeiras i think he played 30 games not 31. If you look at ogol they have 31 but in the details they have 1 game in the "Campeonato Paulista" (but not the game details) BUT Palmeiras did not play in this comp. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2002_Campeonato_Paulista) because they only played in the "Supercampeonato Paulista". Look at verdazzo (https://www.verdazzo.com.br/jogadores/nene/) they have only 30 games (they have 32 but 2 of the games is "amistoso"). What do you think?

P.S. Verdazzo they call it only "Campeonato Paulista" (https://www.verdazzo.com.br/jogo/20020522-spfc-x-palmeiras-campeonato-paulista-2002/ - look at video at the bottom it says "Supercampeonato Paulista") but it is the same game as ogol under "Supercampeonato Paulista" (https://www.playmakerstats.com/match/2002-05-22-palmeiras-sao-paulo/8837463)

Here is also one ref (https://futebol80.com.br/links/times/palmeiras/palmeirasfichas/palmeirasft2002.htm) from his wp page who says the same.

Hello, first about Kesha i get you 100% so no prob. there. I think you are doing a great job always said it :)

About Palmeiras in ogol thou i disagree a bit bc my theory is that since they have 1 game in the "C. Paulista 2002" but does not have the details to me it looks like a "mix up" between the "Superc. Paulista" and "C. Paulista 2002". So the reason why ogol does not have the game details is bc it does not excist since Palmeiras played "Torneio Rio–São Paulo" instead of "C. Paulista 2002" which qualified Palmeiras to "Superc. Paulista" participation. So to me a "mix up" since they have the game in "Superc. Paulista" and can not add the same in "C. Paulista 2002" so then it is missing. What do you think of this theory?

I see that ogol has it confirmed here (https://www.playmakerstats.com/sugestao_dados_jogador_stats.php?jog=920&sel=0&sen=1) but if you look here (https://www.rsssfbrasil.com/tablessz/sp2002.htm) Palmeiras do not participate i mean how can you play 1 game with 1 goal then so to me it makes no sense does it for you?

P.S. Also that ogol has in "C. Paulista" 1 game and 1 goal identical to the "Superc. Paulista" i think make its more likely it is a "mix up" of comp. and with Verdazzo and futebol80 to back it up.

Hello, does not have any info about Brazil U20 but i did find the 11v11 profile (https://www.11v11.com/players/nene-21159/) and it does mention West Ham etc but sadly does not seem to have much info on him.

Dean Lewington

Hello, I keep Dean Lewington page up to date, I don't understand how you find more than 1,000 matches for him. 92 matches for Wimbledon seem unreliable. Can you explain? Kind regards, JOGIROX (talk) 09:08, 8 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello! SoccerBase source, which includes matches for reserves, i.e. U23 and U21 numbers. By the way, the list, as it says, also includes matches for reserves anymore, and that's why he has been added to the list. Kind regards, Lorry Gundersen (talk) 11:12, 8 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
