:'''GF''' is 'goals for'; '''GA''' is 'goals against'; '''GD''' is 'goal difference'.

::I have no idead what '''R''', '''H''' and '''E''' refers to in baseball. This is an interesting point as it has drawn attention to the tables listed under American sporting events. I have just looked at American "play-offs" and "Super Bowl XI", neither of which have (even) an abbreviation at the head of the columns in their tables. Should these be amended, I wonder? ] 04:22, 8 June 2006 (UTC) |

in the section on Base Camps used by the various teams: the link for the Portugal team goes to an article about a field where a papal mass was held for World Youth Day, not the town where Portugal was based during the world cup. Both share the same name, Marienfeld. The linked article itself cautions that the field Marienfeld "should not be confused with the town of Marienfeld in the Gutersloh district of Germany, where the Portugal national football team stayed and which was used as a training area for the team during the 2006 FIFA World Cup", but this link does confuse the two. I would correct this myself, as I'm sure it's not hard to do, but I don't know how. ] (]) 18:25, 7 November 2024 (UTC) |

Can we please move the ] to the very top, like in ]?

Im not sure about this 'trivia' that ] are the only football team not to belong to a country and use a country flag. |
|
|
|
|
|
] is not a country, and St. George's flag is never used officially, so why doesn't this count? |
|
|
|
|
|
To many people, England is a country. Serbia and Montenegro is no longer a country, so it is trivia. |

:England is a country although it is not a ] (which I think is what the comment alluded to with ]) they are one of the ] of the ]. So I can see the formers point about the dubious bit of trivia, or at least its wording, perhaps a mention that ] and ] have split into separate states and this will be their last outing (at least in the World Cup) as a united team might be worthwhile. ] 18:41, 9 June 2006 (UTC) |

== Idea... == |
|
|
|
|

I know FIFA does a match report at the end of the game, I think it would be a good idea to link that match report next to the score of the game. What do you think? It'll give more information (i.e. subs used, cautions/ejections, etc.) I'm not sure how much work it would take, but i'm sure its not a lot. Here is the Match Report for the Germany - Costa Rica game if anyone is unfamiliar. Linking it to each game would also serve as the reference point for any disputes on things such as scoring times. Any thoughts? ] 18:24, 9 June 2006 (UTC) |
|
|
|
|
|
:I think that's a good idea, and it should be implemented. One random question about the report: How could Costa Rica have commited more fouls than Germany suffered? — ] | ] ] 18:56, 9 June 2006 (UTC) |

::: Offsides - these don't count towards "penalties suffered" on the individual tallies, and therefore when these are totalled, the offsides form the difference. I'm looking into how to incorporate these reports into the main page --] |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*Anybody know what the best way to go about doing this is? I was thinking of somehow making the score link to the external fifa match report. Any thoughts? |
|
|
:That would work, or putting it as a '''Match Report''' link under the referee information. ] 22:32, 9 June 2006 (UTC) |

== "Pots" == |
|
|
|
|
|
In the U.S., what we have here as "pots" are called "pools," or sometimes "groups." Is there a well-established tradition of calling them "pots" somewhere else?--] 19:47, 9 June 2006 (UTC) |

It is the term used by the FIFA (as seen on its own website). - ] 20:48, 9 June 2006 (UTC) |

::I think the term also applies to the actual pots that were holding the balls during the draw. They were a bowl-like-pot-shaped thing. I don't think it really matters though, I'd stick with pots cause i'm lazy and don't feel like changing it. ] 20:58, 9 June 2006 (UTC) |

It's not exactly a huge thing, but the Falkland Islands have been coloured in, suggesting that they are part of Argentina - this, for an Englishman such as I, is irritating. It'd be nicer to have this changed, as either way, the Falklands aren't competing. ] 19:54, 9 June 2006 (UTC) |

==Editing Names== |
|
|
|
|
|
Please can we keep the first initial for goalscorers names - someone keeps editing them out. Teams such as England (Cole - Joe and Ashley) have the same surnames and to be consistent it would be good to add the forename initial to all goalscorers |
|
|
|
|
|
It is traditional to only put the first initial when two or more people in a team share the same surname, as is the case with Carlos and Edwin Tenorio from Ecuador. Otherwise, just write the last name in the article: it's fine as it is. ] 21:28, 9 June 2006 (UTC) |

==Removing Official video game Section== |

''2006 FIFA World Cup'' is the official ] for the World Cup. As with the previous World Cup game, ], it is being published by ]. |
|
|
I removed the section because It carries no information about world cup but some advertisement |
|
|
|
|
|
That's ridiculous, this game is absolutely relevant to the World Cup as its the Official Game, just as there is an official mascot, official website, official name, etc. There is no harm at all in mentioning the game and its maker and including a link to the game article. I could POSSIBLY see it if there were 8 or 10 World Cup Games, but the Official Game absolutely warrants mention in the article. ] 23:23, 9 June 2006 (UTC) |

==Style of Most Recent Games== |
|
|
|
|
|
Earlier today, all four teams in the table of the Germany and Ecuador games were highlighted in green. Then just the two winners in green. I think it'd be a good idea to make the background of the winners of the most recent game green and the losers red. This way it's clear who won/lost the last game. Another option would be to bold the most recent change in the table (for example, if Ghana had won two games and lost one, but one the most recent, the 2 under the wins category would be in bold). Comments? If no one has any objections or other ideas, I'll change the look soon. --] 02:28, 10 June 2006 (UTC) |

The following Wikimedia Commons file used on this page or its Wikidata item has been nominated for deletion:
in the section on Base Camps used by the various teams: the link for the Portugal team goes to an article about a field where a papal mass was held for World Youth Day, not the town where Portugal was based during the world cup. Both share the same name, Marienfeld. The linked article itself cautions that the field Marienfeld "should not be confused with the town of Marienfeld in the Gutersloh district of Germany, where the Portugal national football team stayed and which was used as a training area for the team during the 2006 FIFA World Cup", but this link does confuse the two. I would correct this myself, as I'm sure it's not hard to do, but I don't know how. 130.45.73.155 (talk) 18:25, 7 November 2024 (UTC)
