Homosexuality in football month

Not sure if you'd heard about this, I hadn't, but apparently February is LGBT+ football month in the UK. If you wanted article inspiration, maybe that's an area you could direct your attention. I think there's a series on Justin Fashanu that might need an article... Also my prelude to also offer my condolences. Kingsif (talk) 07:36, 3 February 2023 (UTC)

Thanks for the condolences. I don't edit football entries much, but I might poke around to see if there's anything I can do.

Why are we collapsing this? Valereee (talk) 22:40, 6 February 2023 (UTC)

I very often collapse sections on this page. I mean no offense, truly. I don't really see the point in moving an article like Blazing Bagels to the draft space. If you feel the topic is not notable, then raise your concerns on the talk page, or add a notability or merge tag so others can weigh in. I hear your concerns and I appreciate what you're saying. We clearly have different interpretations of some of Wikipedia's rules and that's ok. ---Another Believer (Talk) 22:56, 6 February 2023 (UTC)

Perhaps you should take a moment to self-examine that. I do things folks disagree with too. But it isn't "...no matter what I do...". —¿philoserf? (talk) 18:31, 12 February 2023 (UTC)
@Philoserf Why am I wrong for adding a claim about the sign being compared to Hammering Man? ---Another Believer (Talk) 18:32, 12 February 2023 (UTC)
Then you misunderstood what I objected to. I objected to adding a second reference to a statement that was already referenced in article already pointed out by numerous editors as overcited. —¿philoserf? (talk) 18:35, 12 February 2023 (UTC)
OK, then I'll stop adding content altogether. Over it, anyway. ---Another Believer (Talk) 18:39, 12 February 2023 (UTC)

Thought you might be interested since you created the re-direct for it back in January.

Greeting from Calabria and help request for Vincenzo Ferrera and Draft:Dado Coletti

Dearest Jason, Best regards from Calabria, I am writing to greet you and know how you are, I am quite well for now, I have seen your contribution to that disaster that happened on the other side of my region, a wonderful and welcoming region, despite everything and not for some consciences. In any case, my good Jason, I ask for your precious help to resolve once and for all the situation of these two biographies, that of Dado Coletti which has been waiting to be published for months and that of renewing Vincenzo Ferrera. I know you are very active and I was wondering, in my little ignorance if you could help me with the case. While waiting to hear from you, I wish you a bright greeting and a good evening, from little Campora San Giovanni in Calabria. Luigi Salvatore Vadacchino (talk) 18:43, 27 February 2023 (UTC)
