I know that for other deletion processes there are categories or logs, but I can't find anything analogous for speedy deletion.

Matyash vs. Matiash spellingHello sir! I realize that Matyash is the correct romanization of Cyrillic 'Матяш', and I agree with you. Unfortunately, the authorities in Kyrgyzstan don't quite realize that, so the player Pavel Matyash is officially Pavel Matiash. You can see his passport copy as a proof. He is also registered with such spelling in FIFA systems. In such case, what should be the name of his Wikipedia page? This can be mentioned within the article about him.
Thanks a lot for explaining the rules! I added a section to his article. Infobox national football teamHello! I was the original editor who removed the Elo ratings and biggest win/loss from the Infobox national football team, and I see that you reverted this change due to not enough consensus. I would like to ask your recommendation on how to obtain more consensus, because there have been many discussions about removing these parameters in the past; the the discussion always "leaned in favor" of removing them, but it was never accepted because there was "not enough consensus". Unfortunately this is due to lack of interest on the talk page and because topics are already archived after 7 days, so how can we reach a more clear result? Should I create "Proposal: ..." sections for both removal suggestions, and is there a way to get more people to vote on it then? Thank you for any suggestions. –Sygmoral (talk) 17:15, 12 February 2016 (UTC)

Notable Transvaal playersHi there, the list of names on the notable former players section, are the only names that are collected from all of the sources which make up the content of the article. They are all notable for having been involved in the historic highlights of the club as mentioned in the article. They are the only names that are mentioned in the official Sports Encyclopedia of Suriname as notable former players. The only other players that are included which were not mentioned in relation to the club's accolades and its history in accordance with the source material, are ones that have won individual achievement awards while playing at Transvaal since the publication of the official encyclopedia. I think it is a very organized way to chart the players who have helped Transvaal to its success. Other clubs have this section as well and it goes unchallenged. If there is anything that needs to be added, or any additional clarification that is necessary let me know. (Subzzee (talk) 14:35, 14 March 2016 (UTC))
PSV NickerieHi, may I enquire why PSV Nickerie was moved to P.S.V. Nickerie? I have never seen it written with punctuation. It is always written as PSV. None of the sources show it as written with punctuation. They even use a blue version of the same badge as PSV Eindhoven at their games. I have paid close attention to include punctuation when and where it was used by the club themselves in my creation of articles for clubs from Suriname. There are some clubs who do not include punctuation in the spelling of their names, and I have tried to stay true to the official club name in all instances. Regards, (Subzzee (talk) 16:01, 14 March 2016 (UTC)) The only instances where I removed the punctuation of a club were for S.C.S.V. Kamal Dewaker for example, because of the length, I did not want 'Sociaal Culturele Sportvereniging ' to outweigh the actual name Kamal Dewaker, but in all other instances where it was spelled S.V. or V.V. (Sportvereniging or Voetbalvereniging) I was careful to include or leave out the punctuation according to how the clubs spell it themselves. But PSV (Politie Sportvereniging) is not the same.

Please correct it, otherwise it would fetch wrong information to other fellow editors. Thank you.
last questionGood evening, I would like to ask you, why did you remove the two charity matches to play the Bhutan team vs Buriram United? It's two games are not official, like those against the Tibetan team, the Chinese team during the 1982 tournament anfa and Bangladesh,. I understand do that a club in the Thai league. I think it's no got to be recognized by FIFA, but those against Tibet and club chinese are not either. But an admin intelligent Wikipedia, the note into 2 groups, official match is no unofficial. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A01:E34:EE0E:ABD0:B854:9C74:3C1F:E26D (talk) 18:19, 26 March 2016 (UTC)
I understand but also two charity match, you can not deny it. There is enough source to prove it. But look there are 5 matches with the no-official Bhutan, noted on this Wikipedia page is person to make a fuss, personally I think it would be logical to note these matches, it's going in the direction of Wikipedia and work performed by those who have made the front page. I request a consultation with the other admins is a final vote, which will make everyone agree. I remind that Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, hoping that others did not forget. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A01:E34:EE0E:ABD0:B854:9C74:3C1F:E26D (talk) 10:38, 27 March 2016 (UTC)

Would the attached citation from the VPF be enough evidence of the fact that the new club, Sai Gon FC, is the same organisation as the previous club (not a new club), therefore, the name and 'club' of Ha Noi FC is effective dead. There has been no announcement from the club, the V-League or the VPF that the name shall be retained by any other party. There is also clear precedent within VPF that once a club disappears, the name disappears with it. http://www.vnleague.com/vdqg-vleague/thong-bao/6732-VPF-ban-hanh-Thong-bao-chinh-thuc-ve-viec-doi-ten-cua-CLB-Ha-Noi.html Thanks John_arneVN

Editor of the Week : nominations needed!The Editor of the Week initiative has been recognizing editors since 2013 for their hard work and dedication. Editing Wikipedia can be disheartening and tedious at times; the weekly Editor of the Week award lets its recipients know that their positive behaviour and collaborative spirit is appreciated. The response from the honorees has been enthusiastic and thankful. The list of nominees is running short, and so new nominations are needed for consideration. Have you come across someone in your editing circle who deserves a pat on the back for improving article prose regularly, making it easier to understand? Or perhaps someone has stepped in to mediate a contentious dispute, and did an excellent job. Do you know someone who hasn't received many accolades and is deserving of greater renown? Is there an editor who does lots of little tasks well, such as cleaning up citations? Please help us thank editors who display sustained patterns of excellence, working tirelessly in the background out of the spotlight, by submitting your nomination for Editor of the Week today!
