Youth honours (something that is deemed irrelevant no, at least in clubs?) continue to be added to this player's page, and now also something called "Debrecen İmprovement Organization"Award" (what the hell?!). BOTH continue to be added without a source, and i feel (given the GLARING similarity in editorial style) that both accounts shown in edit summaries (Alxannnn and Elnurrrrr) are the same person. See this "charmer" in Simon Kjær for instance (https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Simon_Kj%C3%A6r&diff=prev&oldid=1224259601)...

I had to revert them manually, would very much like to have the rollback feature back, but it's just not happening. Attentively, enjoy your break! RevampedEditor (talk) 11:40, 17 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The lack of sourcing is significantly more concerning than the 'merit' of the award. Some youth awards can be notable and therefore worth including in player articles. GiantSnowman 15:31, 19 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Runner-up in a league with a final match (like MLS)[edit]

Hello GS. Just wondering -- what's your opinion on including honours of being runner-up in a league competition that has a final match? Examples include MLS Cup, Division 1 Féminine and Championnat National U19. I'm asking because I'm debating whether including honours like the one in Ethan Mbappé#Honours is relevant or not. Thanks for your input! Paul Vaurie (talk) 22:55, 19 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I'm inclined to say that a runner-up in a league (whether that's 'normal' or 'final match') is notable. The slight difference here is that the U19 competition is youth so not always notable. However, as it appears to be the highest U19 youth level, I say include it. GiantSnowman 14:14, 20 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Great! I'm personally indifferent about it but since you lean towards this I will make sure to keep including it in articles like Ethan Mbappé. BTW about him, did you hear he's going to Lille? Paul Vaurie (talk) 17:41, 20 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
No, I didn't - feel free to update the article if it's confirmed and there's a reliable source confirming it. GiantSnowman 17:42, 20 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Currently just a big news story. My prediction is that it'll be official in the next month or so. Perhaps earlier. Paul Vaurie (talk) 17:44, 20 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Well let's wait until then! GiantSnowman 17:45, 20 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
