== April 2009 ==

My apologies. Upon looking at the information, I see now why you were removing the template. I monitor the recent changes, and your removing a large portion of content repeatedly without justifying it in the edit summary appeared suspicious and was reverted. To avoid confusion in the future, may I suggest that you make use of the edit summary? This will ensure that any edits you that make in good faith aren't immediately reverted. Again, sorry for the confusion. (And may I suggest you review [[Wikipedia:Talk page guidelines|Talk page guidelines]]?) Thanks, [[User:Onopearls|Ono]] ([[User talk:Onopearls|talk]]) 14:55, 27 April 2009 (UTC)

:It is nice to see an editor taking an interest in some of the tens of thousands of articles that are all but abandoned. I thank you for your efforts to bring these articles up to date. Thanks, [[User:Onopearls|Ono]] ([[User talk:Onopearls|talk]]) 15:18, 27 April 2009 (UTC)

==Why i edit International RL Players ==
How can players just be called an Australian player when they havent played for them even when they have what about the other country they are allowed to represent are they just forgotten and the international rl eligibilty rule is a joke hayne can play for fiji one year then play for australia and tonie carrol can play for australia and new zealand so it doesnt matter any way as to what international rl category they are as long as they are able to represent them if they have a grand father/mother or father then they can play for them and i have to edit the international league pages to show how much players can represent the weaker teams for people who dont know much about international league i hope you understand why edit the way i do and hope you let me continue my editing in the future as its only fair to include all the countries they are able to represent under the current eligibility rules.[[Special:Contributions/58.165.209.77|58.165.209.77]] ([[User talk:58.165.209.77|talk]]) 10:36, 12 July 2009 (UTC)
:RL players are called Australian even when they haven't represented Australia because they have Australian nationality. Offiah doesn't have a Nigerian passport, wasn't born there, didn't grow up there and didn't play representative sport for them.[[User:GordyB|GordyB]] ([[User talk:GordyB#top|talk]]) 12:46, 12 July 2009 (UTC)

== Rugby union in Africa ==

Thanks for adding cats to this. This was the continent I was least looking forward too (too many damn countries - Asia would be in the same boat, if more Asians played!)

I pinched the idea of rugby union by continent from the RL pages. It's not meant to supersede the "by country" pages, but should hopefully fill a gap, as many RU competitions are transnational.--[[User:MacRusgail|MacRusgail]] ([[User talk:MacRusgail|talk]]) 18:20, 25 July 2009 (UTC)

==[[Mungoball]]==
I have reverted your blanking of the redirect page. If you wish to see it deleted, take it to [[WP:AfD]]. [[User:Drmies|Drmies]] ([[User talk:Drmies|talk]]) 19:05, 12 August 2009 (UTC)
:Indeed I will but in the meantime there is no need for an abusive term to have a redirect page.[[User:GordyB|GordyB]] ([[User talk:GordyB#top|talk]]) 20:26, 12 August 2009 (UTC)
::I can't say I approve of your edit summary; where I'm from that's a bit callous, and very pointy, to say the least. And you're right in the sense that it doesn't redirect to African-Americans, but oh so wrong in all other senses: the term has its own article. Anyway, I saw you took it to AfD and that is the right step. [[User:Drmies|Drmies]] ([[User talk:Drmies|talk]]) 23:08, 12 August 2009 (UTC)
:::Referring to people as sub-humans because of the sport they play doesn't count as "callous"? Some double standard there. Nigger is significant enough in its own right to warrant an article "mungoball" is not but terms of abuse should certainly not redirect to those that they abuse.[[User:GordyB|GordyB]] ([[User talk:GordyB#top|talk]]) 12:06, 15 August 2009 (UTC)

==Opinion please!==
What do you make of this - [[Rugby Soccer]]? --[[User:MacRusgail|MacRusgail]] ([[User talk:MacRusgail|talk]]) 20:21, 22 August 2009 (UTC)

:Thanks. I was unsure whether it was real or not. Maybe someone saw the name "rugby football", and changed it to "soccer" I don't know. Part of the reason for my uncertainty is that some genuinely ''bizarre'' hybrids do exist, such as [[football tennis]] and [[chess boxing]]--[[User:MacRusgail|MacRusgail]] ([[User talk:MacRusgail|talk]]) 16:58, 30 August 2009 (UTC)

==Soviet Union==
Thanks for the edit. I would appreciate any comments on the article... I think currently it talks a bit too much about the political set up, although this ''is'' important.

However, I've just come up with a ''new'' piece of evidence, which suggests that rugby ''football'' was indeed played in Russia as far back as the 1880s (which puts it way before the split, and the 1908 date given). What's more surprising, perhaps, is that it transpires that rugby may predate soccer in the Russian Empire!

I've gone through a book by James Riordan called ''Sport in the Soviet Union'', which was published back in the 1970s. It's turned out to be a real goldmine, and has resolved some of the contradictory information that I had been given in sources elsewhere (such as rugby being banned during a period in which other sources claim it was being played). There isn't a vast amount on rugby union in it, but more than enough to go on, and what's there is more than enough to sort out a few of the issues.--[[User:MacRusgail|MacRusgail]] ([[User talk:MacRusgail|talk]]) 16:39, 29 September 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for your kind advice. I need to get the Huw Richards information in there, and also I'll try and fill out the story of Llanelli in Moscow which looks an interesting one. It's been hard to track down some of the information - I've even used the National Library of Scotland to source some of it. My philosophy is that while most readers of Wikipedia will head for articles on the 6N, Jonny & Jonah, that they're well served elsewhere (online and off), and that it is difficult (impossible?) for us to improve on them. However, on a subject like this, I think it's quite possible for us to be the best - probably also on Tier 2 nations as well. The article should have stuff in it, which one can't find elsewhere online (at least not in English)

Still, I reckon Soviet rugby must be a big historical "what if?" If the USSR had survived a decade more, and if they had got into the first RWC, then I think we would have seen teams of at least the calibre of Romania. (Probably full of steroids and shamateurs!) Instead they took the huff at SA, which wasn't even in it, and by the time '91 had come around, the USSR was dead. (Which was good in some ways, but a disaster for the game). Unless the old SA etc counts, and pre-WWII Italy and Japan, rugby doesn't seem to thrive in dictatorships. Romania's definitely the odd one out in that regard. --[[User:MacRusgail|MacRusgail]] ([[User talk:MacRusgail|talk]]) 14:36, 3 October 2009 (UTC)

[[File:Redaktor Wikipedia 600px.png|right|130px]]
Hello. Your account has been granted the "{{mono|reviewer}}" userright, allowing you to to [[WP:Reviewing|review other users' edits]] on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, will be commencing a [[WP:Pending changes|a two-month trial]] at approximately 23:00, 2010 June 15 (UTC).

Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not [[wp:autoconfirmed|autoconfirmed]] to articles placed under flagged protection. Flagged protection is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial. 

When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious [[WP:VAND|vandalism]] or [[WP:BLP|BLP violations]], and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see [[Wikipedia:Reviewing process]]). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found [[WP:Pending changes|here]].

If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. <!-- Template:Reviewer-notice --> [[User:Karanacs|Karanacs]] ([[User talk:Karanacs|talk]]) 15:33, 15 June 2010 (UTC)

== Re: Rugby Forum ==

Given that [[The Rugby Forum]] covers NRL and Super League, it spans both "flavours" of rugby, union and league. Accordingly, it is rightfully in the categories of both, and it rightfully should not be referred to as a "rugby union" site, but generically a "rugby" site. —'''[[User:C.Fred|C.Fred]]''' ([[User_talk:C.Fred|talk]]) 20:34, 14 August 2010 (UTC)

:I too would like to lend my voice to this.  While some wording can, and will be looked at, it is not a rugby union only site. One of the owners is primarily a rugby league supporter.  The appropriate term would be either just ''rugby'' or ''rugby football''.  We can then look at which sections pertain more to union or more to league. [[User:Rowlan|Rowlan]] ([[User talk:Rowlan|talk]]) 09:19, 2 September 2010 (UTC)

:I also would like to throw my 2 cents in.  Stop editing the article for which you have no knowledge of.

:In response to your last message, no one has nominated any rugby league players to be inducted into the Hall of Fame at TRF.  So your argument is invalid and shows that you have only glanced over the top and not got involved with the members.

==Featherstone RUFC==
Hi, I notice that you have made contributions to the [[Featherstone]] article. The current [[rugby league]] club, [[Featherstone Rovers]], wasn't founded until 1902, and appears to have no links to the earlier [[rugby union]] (RU) club. However, I have contributed to an article about [[James Metcalfe (rugby league)|James "Jimmy" Metcalfe]], and I have found details of him playing for Yorkshire (RU) in 1896/7 while playing at Featherstone (RU), would you have any information about the RU club of the 1800s in Featherstone.

Hello, I noticed that you recently created a new page, '''[[:Joe Grima (Australia)]]'''. First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as you.

If you think the article you created should remain separate, you may '''contest the nomination''' by [[:Joe Grima (Australia)|visiting the page]] and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with [[Wikipedia:List of policies|Wikipedia's policies and guidelines]]. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, you can place a request [[WP:RFUD|here]]. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the [[WP:AFC|article creation process]] and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia.

==Contributor copyright investigation==
After processing the copyright listing at [[Wikipedia:Copyright problems/2014 May 20]], where I did confirm copying albeit in small amounts, and confirming that this is an issue you've had flagged before on your talk page, I did a look at your contribution history and unfortunately have verified copyright issues, both with content copied from outside of Wikipedia and from content copied from one Wikipedia page to another without meeting the terms of our license. Accordingly, I have opened [[Wikipedia:Contributor copyright investigations/GordyB]] to facilitate review and cleanup of any additional issues. In addition to the one I noted immediately above, I have flagged several more problems already at that page. In order to avoid your being spammed with copyright notices, the CCI process asks that taggers do ''not'' place templated notices at your page. Sometimes people will do so from habit and with good intentions. Please feel free to remove them. If you want to keep an eye on issues, you should rather watch your CCI page and its linked subpage.

To be clear, the primary issues here are:
*Copying from Wikipedia pages to other Wikipedia pages without attribution. Content on Wikipedia is not public domain, but is liberally licensed for reuse. That reuse, however, requires a minimum attribution standard, among other conditions, which must be met with either a full list of contributors or a link to the original page. Please see [[Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia]] for more about why this attribution is required and how it is supplied.
*Copying and closely paraphrasing from other sites. Information taken from other websites and placed on Wikipedia must be written in your own words and structure, unless you are using a brief and clearly marked quotation. [[Wikipedia:Copy-paste]] gives a good overview of our approach to copyrighted content, with links to relevant policies and guidelines. There are some verbatim illustrative passages of issues at the CCI page, if you'd like to see an example of the issue. So far, it seems to me that this was more of a problem earlier in your career, although as I noted at [[Wikipedia:Copyright problems/2014 May 20]], I did find some continuing copying in recent work. While the issue I addressed there is nowhere near as substantial as those older problems, it does suggest that you may not have realized when notified of the issue [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk%3AGordyB&diff=424029699&oldid=411548441 three years ago] how careful you should be to rewrite material.

If you have any questions about copyright or the CCI, you are welcome to leave them at my talk page. You are also welcome to continue editing, but please be careful moving forward. --[[User:Moonriddengirl|Moonriddengirl]] <sup>[[User talk:Moonriddengirl|(talk)]]</sup> 19:07, 1 June 2014 (UTC)

:Fuck this witch hunt. Suddenly now you have attribute when you move data from one Wikipedia page to another. I've been editing since 2003. There was no such rule in place in 2003 nor was there this paranoia about copyright. Now you want to go through 11 years of contributions. Well good luck with that one. In the meantime many of my articles on rugby clubs' history were copy-pasted by the clubs and stuck on their website. No doubt I'll be the one deemed guilty. The Wikilawyers and deletionists seem to have taken over. Sadly the "don't be a dick" rule seems to have been lost. Seriously the article on close paraphrasing that I was advised to read only had its first draft in 2009, I'd been editing for six years before that, how was I supposed to have read it?[[User:GordyB|GordyB]] ([[User talk:GordyB#top|talk]]) 22:58, 4 June 2014 (UTC)
::GordyB, I'm with you, while looking for references I've found that Wikipedia articles to which I initiated and have been the majority contributor have been cut 'n' paste to external websites, which is fair enough, but I wouldn't take too kindly to it if I was then accused of plagiarism. This seems like self-important bureaucrats creating work to enhance their pompous belief that they in fact indispensable and they have the cheek to ask the WikiProject Rugby league to undertake the donkey work, what a set of cunts.

:{{outdent}} Sorry, but you shouldn't be acting like a victim here GordyB. There may be external websites that have just copied-and-pasted from wikipedia (which is bad for us all), but you have clearly copied-and-pasted from copyright sources. I don't necessarily think it was malicious, but it happened. It can be pretty easy to check, looking at archives from archive.org/web from before the edits for example. In other cases you actually mentioned in the edit summary that you got the material from an external site (which is why I'm not convinced what you've done is malicious -- but regardless, it's still a problem)! For example [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=&diff=prev&oldid=40855645], [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=&diff=prev&oldid=37673304], and [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=&diff=prev&oldid=40854433] from the ARU. In others it was so clear it's not funny -- for example [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=&diff=prev&oldid=215381058] from [http://www.banglacricket.com/html/history/timeline.php] -- your edit was 2006, but this snapshot [https://web.archive.org/web/20051123075529/http://www.banglacricket.com/History/timeline.php] was from 2005. The problem is now we can't be sure which of your edits were copyright infringements and which weren't. This sucks for all involved, so please don't get upset -- you should be apologising. -- [[User:Shudde|<span style="color:Blue;">Shudde</span>]] <sup>[[User talk:Shudde|<span style="color:Blue;">talk</span>]]</sup> 09:19, 5 June 2014 (UTC)

Even if you were correct and there is a direct cut ’n’ paste, I doubt whether, e.g. Banglacricket (The home of the Tigers’ cricket) can claim a copyright, even if they stick a © symbol on their website. They’ve had 9-years to complain, so Banglacricket are obviously not as troubled by it as you are. If the BBC or the Australian Rugby Union were to complain about any Wikipedia content, apart from being a public relations disaster for them, all that would happen is an agreement to take down the offending content. 97-articles in 8-years; don’t knock yourself out will you. As an aside you say you “fell into editing rugby related articles years ago”, you  haven’t you “fell into editing rugby '''union''' related articles years ago”, please correct this error immediately as I don’t want to be associated with the likes of you.

:I am correct, and it doesn't have to be a direct cut-n'paste (see [[WP:CLOSEPARAPHRASE]]). The Contributor copyright investigation isn't an injustice, so stop crying about it. It's also up to 990 articles not just the ones he created; they could be deleted, and I'm not happy about it. If you don't care about copyright, you should probably not be editing (being one of the five pillars and all -- [[Wikipedia:Wikipedia is free content]]). Sorry mate, but rugby is rugby union pretty much everywhere, including where I'm from. I'll call the sport, or any sport, what I want (especially on my own userpage).

== Harlequins Rugby League ==
[[File:Information.svg|25px|alt=Information icon]] Hi, and thank you for [[Special:Contributions/GordyB|your contributions]] to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give [[:Harlequins Rugby League]] a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into [[:London Broncos]]. This is known as a "[[Wikipedia:Administrators' guide/Fixing cut-and-paste moves|cut-and-paste move]]", and it is undesirable because it splits the [[Help:Page history|page history]], which is [[Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia|legally required for attribution]].  Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be ''moved'' to a new title together with their edit history.

In most cases, once your account is [[WIkipedia:Autoconfirmed|four days old and has ten edits]], you should be able to move an article yourself using the [[Help:Moving a page|"Move" tab]] at the top of the page (the tab may be [[:File:Vector hidden move button.png|hidden in a dropdown menu]] for you). This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a [[Wikipedia:Redirect|redirect]] from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at [[Wikipedia:Requested moves|requested moves]] to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at [[Wikipedia:Requests for history merge]]. Thank you. <!-- Template:uw-c&pmove --> [[User:DA1|DA1]] ([[User talk:DA1|talk]]) 15:28, 6 February 2019 (UTC)

== Suspension of autopatrolled permission due to inactivity ==
{{Ivmbox|Hello GordyB. Following [[Special:PermanentLink/1290054377#RfC: Inactivity requirements for autopatrolled|a request for comment]] in May 2025, the community has decided to implement an activity requirement for the [[WP:Autopatrolled|autopatrolled permission]]. Because your account has not edited in the last three years, the autopatrolled permission has been removed from your account. This action is purely procedural and does not affect your ability to create articles; if you return to actively creating articles, you may request that the permission be restored through [[Wikipedia:Requests for permissions/Autopatrolled|the normal process]]. When returning, please consider taking some time to re-familiarize yourself with common practices and how they may have changed over the past few years if you wish to request the permission back.
