Why have the extinct modalities, and winnings from them, been deleted from Sporting's record? History is just supossed to be erased??! I don't get it. One's wins aren't real achievments because the club has stopped the modality?? Really, I'm stunned..


I completely agree.

I think we should change the colours of the uniforms represented in the pictures, it doesn't look very correct.

The uniforms are fine. They are the new 2006/2007 Sporting official uniforms changed because of the new contract with Puma. I agree with having pictures of them, but until now there are no pictures available. We have to wait till the start of the season

::A colloquial name for a team doesn't have to be part of their official name though.

:::Although I agree with your first statement, the fact is the club in question should not be referred to by the expression "Sporting Lisbon".

:This same issue seems to be causing debate now between myself and ] - the text read
:''and often incorrectly as Sporting Lisbon by English-speaking nations''
:I dispute that this is incorrect, so have reworded the sentence.
:My reasons are as follows:
:* This is the common name used across the English speaking world, so even though it is not the "official" name, it is not incorrect. Language is defined by its usage. And on English Misplaced Pages we have the ] policy.
:* The argument is that we don't say "Chelsea London" to denote ]. Well, we don't in English, but in Polish, the club really is known widely as "Chelsea Londyn" and that's where the Polish article on the subject is located: .
:* The official club website acknowledges that the club is widely known internationally as "Sporting Lisbon" - it does not suggest that such usage is "incorrect". I've included that as a reference in the article.
:Thanks! ] (]) 09:35, 25 March 2010 (UTC)

::The club can be refered to as any name anyone wants to refer it to. That, I think, is not disputed here. As such, one of the links to call the page can be Sporting Lisbon.
::What I assume is more important is how the club is wrongly called. Sporting Clube de Portugal has, since being first labelled "Sporting Lisbon", tryed to get rid of the name and has reached some agreement within UEFA on that matter. That is encyclopedia material. Someone researching for the club must know how the club itself treats the incorrect name its being called, and that the well-known-abroad name is in fact wrong.
::I believe that the '''''and often incorrectly as Sporting Lisbon by English-speaking nations''''' statement is a good introduction to letting people know how to correctly speak of the club (or anything for that matter) even if they choose not to.

:::Hi Ricardo. Do you know of any outside sources (e.g. newspaper articles, websites, books) which mention the fact that the club does not wish to be known by the name "Sporting Lisbon"? I notice that the ] section does not currently have any citations. A sensible compromise here for the introduction to the article might be to state that the name is widely used in English countries but that the club does not wish to be known by that name.

::::Agree with ], have requested references in that section of the article. What ] described as "correct" is not the top issue here. Names commonly established in English are used, with good reason.

:Hy Paulojmartins, after a small amount of research I have come to a conclusion that the information could be innaccurate, but not in the way you intend it to be.
:Information at Sporting Clube de Portugal's website states that Sporting is the third club with more European Cups in all disciplines , after Barcelona and Real Madrid. Here, refering only to wins in major European championships.
:What I believe is in fact correct is that Sporting, after Barcelona, is the club with more European Titles across all disciplines. This, I assume, would include all medals and other titles in all sports the club participated. In the same way Sporting is probably the European club with most Titles across every sport (here including World titles), after Barcelona.

== Honours; Is being runner up an honour or not? ==

According to logic, every conqueror has vanquished an opponent and the vanquished deserves as much mention as the conqueror. Misplaced Pages is supposed to be an impartial verifiable fact depository. In sports every winner defeated the opponent and in a elimination tournament we need two opponents in a final. However, according to some, finishing second is not worth mentioning as an honour. Following that logic, why give finalists a silver medal? Should we lobby against such a recognition? Who needs runner ups... Are we going to wipe out all the silver and bronze medals from competition all together? Who are these administrators, policeman and censors that decide unilaterally what is an honour or not? I say, reaching a final or finishing second or third is an Honour worth mentioning. ] (]) 14:19, 19 May 2018 (UTC)
:Finishing second in the league is not considered an honour. When runner-up honours are mentioned in the article's body, they can be removed from Honours section. You can get more information at ]. ] (]) 16:07, 19 May 2018 (UTC)

Hello, I did check the place you suggested. There's no official policy regarding omission of a tournament runner up... Besides, I wasn't talking about a league as in a national championship like Serie A, La Liga, Ligue 1 etc, I'm referring to knock out competitions like FA Cup, Taça de Portugal, Europa League and so forth. In this case the format is designed to create two streams that lead to two finalists and that on its own is already a milestone for any participant. As such, the organizers issue finalist medals to the losing participants precisely to recognize the losers importance. Although you say if mention is already made in the main article, there's no need to listed in the honours section... It sounds more like personal opinion than general consensus. In fact "runner up" credits shown in the honours sections are more common than otherwise and rightly so, for once it shows a quick to glean summary of the entity's history highlights. Anyway, it seems you have the knife and cheese in your hands but you also do lots of good work as well. ] (]) 02:44, 21 May 2018 (UTC)
:I know the difference between a domestic league and a knockout competition. Only Misplaced Pages guidelines are considered official, but even those can be challenged and consequently changed when consensus is reached. The listing of runner-up honours has been discussed several times at ] – it's not my opinion – you can search its archive (e.g. "runner-up honour"). As a rule of thumb, if a club or player has won a trophy or medal in a specific competition, there's no need to list a runner-up honour related to that competition. If a club or player has only been runner-up, and that honour isn't mentioned in prose, then we should add the runner-up honour. ] (]) 23:21, 21 May 2018 (UTC)

Thanks for the reply, I understand your point and Misplaced Pages's policy parameters. I concede having the history portion mentioning such achievements, as not rendering it ignoble. The point I'm making has to do with the ease of a quick glancing of the history achievements in the Honours section, instead of needing to peruse the whole content of the web page. If someone picks up... runner-up 2005-6 UEFA what ever, it raises a level of curiosity as to which team won the final... That's the reason for my persistence. At any rate, keep up the good work you do. ] (]) 15:19, 26 May 2018 (UTC)

:Club articles are generally different to player articles when listing honours, As a rule of thumb on previous consensus you don't list runner up on club articles in honours.

Hi there. I confirmed the fact that the futsal derby (https://www.zerozero.pt/jogo.php?id=3666265) happened before the football derby (https://www.zerozero.pt/jogo.php?id=3597315).

Hi there. I revised the text regarding the number of members ("sócios") of the club and created a more recent and accurate citation in that regard.

I also changed the text regarding the rivalry between Sporting and Porto, since the alleged alliance between the two clubs against Benfica, doesn't exist anymore, given the fact that Sporting has a new President since the 9th September 2018.

I get it that the club is trying to be known as "Sporting Portugal" abroad, but that doesn't make "Sporting Lisbon" erroneous.
Hi I would like to suggest an important change to this article.
Can some one please remove the Other from the Club Officials heading?
Leoes de Portugal are not part of the club officials. They are a separate entity that is authorised by the Club to use colors and logo and such. They are important, and have their place in the article, but so do many other groups that are part of this family. Never as Club Officials, This is wrong. The link (90) that references that entry is for a page outside the sporting.pt FQDN.

Due to the fact of this article being attacked by a {{ping|SLBedit}} (notice Benfica acronyms SLB) with support of {{ping|Oshwah}} I contacted Misplaced Pages for a solution. That "fact" is from a editorialized article(notice CMjornal and Record, portuguese tabloids), and that reflects the bias of Benfica fans, that a agreement between 2 teams to defend their interests is an alliance against Benfica. That goes against Misplaced Pages talk:Neutral point of view of promoting things from a neutral point of view. I don't understand the interest of Oshwah to keep that, looks like a such conflictive issue in a such small point would be very easy to solve with the removal, and not claiming "censorship".
This matter would be easily solved with a neutral point like: "Recently Porto and Sporting resumed their institutional relationship after 4 years of cuted ties.".--] (]) 11:06, 2 December 2018 (UTC)

Or as Misplaced Pages puts it: "Material based on primary sources can be valuable and appropriate additions to articles. However, primary sources may only be used on Misplaced Pages to make straightforward, descriptive statements that any educated person—with access to the source but without specialist knowledge—will be able to verify are directly supported by the source. This person does not have to be able to determine that the material in the article or in the primary source is true. The goal is only that the person could compare the primary source with the material in the Misplaced Pages article, and agree that the primary source actually, directly says just what the article says it does.

::So you don't object to the compromise? @], what's wrong with the above suggestion?

Here is a quote from https://www.sporting.pt/en/club/history/the-badge "Various loose affiliations and denominations, in the form of the different names used to define the Club outside of Portugal (with the Club largely being known a "Sporting Lisbon" abroad)". Even the official website acknowledges "Sporting Lisbon". What happens if A. Landmesser ignores this discussion while other users/IPs try to remove "Sporting Lisbon" from the lead? What happens if consensus is reached: will the "restore-reverts" still count as edit warring? Could someone add a note in the lead saying "do not remove "Sporting Lisbon" without reaching consensus first"? ] (]) 17:56, 30 April 2024 (UTC)
Also, this corrects a biased article that should never have been used. There are numerous articles about the progress of Sporting's number of registered supporters, over the last 5 years. And you go and use one from a known biased journalist.

  • Template:Regions of Portugal: statistical (NUTS3) subregions and intercommunal entities are confused; they are not the same in all regions, and should be sublisted separately in each region: intermunicipal entities are sometimes larger and split by subregions (e.g. the Metropolitan Area of Lisbon has two subregions), some intercommunal entities are containing only parts of subregions. All subregions should be listed explicitly and not assume they are only intermunicipal entities (which accessorily are not statistic subdivisions but real administrative entities, so they should be listed below, probably using a smaller font: we can safely eliminate the subgrouping by type of intermunicipal entity from this box).

Rivalary

It seems to me that a user is constantly updating this area to something that has no interest to the section, like about a episode about a banner, if we are going to write about every single time a football clube put a banner we gonna need the whole internet, so i dont see the interest of this particular episode. I do agree thoug that the 1996 final of portuguese cup was a key moment in the rivalary between sporting and benfica, since was the first time and only time a fan died consequence of the rivalary, being quoted as the darkest day of portuguese football. The other episodes seem to me a way of enabling the latter episode and justify it even thoug it happended 20 years after and which the severity of it is banal. — Preceding unsigned comment added by OctopusFactCheck (talkcontribs) 15:11, 27 July 2018 (UTC)

You lost me a bit here, I read through the rivalry section and don't really see much wrong other than some poorly written English. Porto vs Sporting rivalry could certainly do with being expanded upon. Govvy (talk) 11:17, 28 July 2018 (UTC)

The rivalry section between Sporting and Porto is not elaborated on but it is also wrong. There is no alliance between Sporting and Porto. The sources provided to support this are from tabloid newspapers. Both clubs are supporting the judicial processes against Benfica since both might benefit from it but that does not make an alliance... The clubs even had the official ties cut until recently...--JRosa (talk) 16:49, 4 January 2019 (UTC)

Firstly, Misplaced Pages is not a forum, and definetely not Reddit. Secondly, both Porto and Sporting are involved in judicial processes for corruption, especially the latter – Cashball. Lastly, just stop creating new accounts. SLBedit (talk) 20:50, 5 January 2019 (UTC)

Hi there. I confirmed the fact that the futsal derby (https://www.zerozero.pt/jogo.php?id=3666265) happened before the football derby (https://www.zerozero.pt/jogo.php?id=3597315). Also I don’t think that when describing the Sporting Porto rivalry, one can say that they formed an alliance against Benfica, it just seems biased and simplistic. Also Sporting CP has a new president since 9th September 2019, following the dismissal of the previous president by the club’s “sócios”. Regards. Pddalmeida (talk) 17:53, 8 March 2019 (UTC)

Hi there. I revised the text regarding the number of members ("sócios") of the club and created a more recent and accurate citation in that regard. I also revised the text regarding the incidents that took place in the Lisbon Derbies of futsal and football, that happened respectively on the 7th and 8th February 2015, as it's described in the citations about this issue. I also changed the text regarding the rivalry between Sporting and Porto, since the alleged alliance between the two clubs against Benfica, doesn't exist anymore, given the fact that Sporting has a new President since the 9th September 2018. Best regards.Pddalmeida (talk) 00:48, 5 June 2019 (UTC)

@Royk14, Struway2, and Oshwah: Even Sporting CP website states that the club is known as Sporting Lisbon outside Portugal:

"Various loose affiliations and denominations, in the form of the different names used to define the Club outside of Portugal (with the Club largely being known a "Sporting Lisbon" abroad), worked to create a little anarchy and diversity in the shaping of the new identity of the Club that has always aimed to be a leader of the national panoramic and to be of international reputation."

That's no reason to censor it from the lead. SLBedit (talk) 15:06, 29 April 2024 (UTC)

Sporting Lisbon fans still continue to remove "Sporting Lisbon", ignoring reliable sources. A. Landmesser continues not to reinstate that information because they have conflict of interest. SLBedit (talk) 14:17, 29 April 2024 (UTC)

Blatant Conflict of interest (COI) editing: even the source SLBedit insists to add is about a degrading episode in the history of Sporting CP. Always the same modus operandi that people are starting to notice. Others left Misplaced Pages for good because of editors like him. The most balanced and equitable way to solve the issue is to properly explain the issues with the use of "Sporting Lisbon" without erasing it from the lead. A. Landmesser (talk) 16:58, 30 April 2024 (UTC)

Sourced content reverted

This short explanation was reverted without a valid reason by a SL Benfica advocate. I would ask the administrators to pay attention to the multiple abuses by this user, who has absurd prejudices towards Portuguese football and is against anything that is not in the interests of his SL Benfica. A. Landmesser (talk) 08:16, 22 February 2024 (UTC)

You shouldn't have added off-topic advocacy to the Crest and shirt section. SLBedit (talk) 20:09, 23 February 2024 (UTC)

Edit war started by User:A. Landmesser

"The innacuracy must be explained according to consensus". There never was consensus about that. SLBedit (talk) 16:37, 30 April 2024 (UTC)

You don't make the consensus alone. Many users have said it to you. Your actions are a Blatant Conflict of interest (COI) editing: even the source you insist to add is about a degrading episode in the history of Sporting CP. Always the same modus operandi that people are starting to notice but nobody cares. Others left Misplaced Pages for good because of editors like you. The most balanced and equitable way to solve the issue is to properly explain the issues with the use of "Sporting Lisbon" without erasing it from the lead. A. Landmesser (talk) 17:07, 30 April 2024 (UTC)
Will you stop harrassing me and stop copy-pasting the same aspersions? SLBedit (talk) 17:10, 30 April 2024 (UTC)
Boy, I've better things to this week at Estádio de Alvalade. Have a nice day. A. Landmesser (talk) 17:15, 30 April 2024 (UTC)
Are you implying that you work for Sporting Lisbon? I do not care about your personal life, but if you are a paid editor, you must tell Misplaced Pages. Misplaced Pages:Paid-contribution disclosure SLBedit (talk) 17:29, 30 April 2024 (UTC)

Sporting Lisbon

You need a new section to discuss this to start afresh. Don't turn it into personal attacks or refer to each other's motives. There are currently cited references to support both points of view.

What's wrong with this compromise: and occasionally as Sporting Lisbon outside other countries? I don't buy the offensiveness argument, that's unsourced and WP:NOTCENSORED. Local Variable (talk) 17:10, 30 April 2024 (UTC)

"I don't buy the offensiveness argument, that's unsourced and WP:NOTCENSORED" That's the whole point. It's only "offensive" to some Sporting Lisbon fans. SLBedit (talk) 17:20, 30 April 2024 (UTC)
So you don't object to the compromise? @A. Landmesser, what's wrong with the above suggestion? I agree there's controversy around the name, but the way you expressed it looked like the article was opinionated rather than objective. Misplaced Pages does not take opinions on these issues, it summarises what is in reliable sources. So what exactly is wrong with the above suggestion, which reflects that the name is still used (Google "Sporting Lisbon" and look at the news articles), even if it's not ubiquitous. Local Variable (talk) 17:28, 30 April 2024 (UTC)
@Local Variable: and occasionally as Sporting Lisbon outside other countries is fine. However, that won't please users/IP addresses that have been trying to remove "Sporting Lisbon" for years. SLBedit (talk) 17:40, 30 April 2024 (UTC)
Well, we'll wait and see what they say about it, rather than presume their opinion on the topic. None of the above discussion has been at all productive with no attempt to compromise. Local Variable (talk) 17:42, 30 April 2024 (UTC)
I've only presumed because I know who/what I'm dealing with. It's just sad that they don't accept that there are people in the world that say "Sporting Lisbon". This whole edit warring could be avoided if they hadn't a limited view of their own club. This reminds of the "Inter Milan" story on Misplaced Pages, where Inter Milan fans tried to change it, without success, to "Internazionale". SLBedit (talk) 17:44, 30 April 2024 (UTC)

Here is a quote from https://www.sporting.pt/en/club/history/the-badge "Various loose affiliations and denominations, in the form of the different names used to define the Club outside of Portugal (with the Club largely being known a "Sporting Lisbon" abroad)". Even the official website acknowledges "Sporting Lisbon". What happens if A. Landmesser ignores this discussion while other users/IPs try to remove "Sporting Lisbon" from the lead? What happens if consensus is reached: will the "restore-reverts" still count as edit warring? Could someone add a note in the lead saying "do not remove "Sporting Lisbon" without reaching consensus first"? SLBedit (talk) 17:56, 30 April 2024 (UTC)

That will likely go in, but cool your jets: fanboys and people with axes to grind do similar edits, all over Misplaced Pages, thousands a day. There is no practical way for the words "Sporting Lisbon" to be engraved in granite in this article, untouchable for all time to come. If vandalism happens, it will be reverted. It just doesn't have to be the case that you, personally, need to be the sole guardian of the lead's purity. Ravenswing 19:55, 30 April 2024 (UTC)

All of the sudden, A. Landmesser (talk · contribs) stops editing and almost a month later SportingPortugaledit (talk · contribs) appears and starts pushing "Sporting Portugal" into the lead. Do you think it's a coincidence? SLBedit (talk) 15:57, 3 June 2024 (UTC)

Misplaced Pages has been recklessly vandalized by Lisboa e Benfica fan boy since years ago and you call vandals to those who try to fix this disgusting behavior in the website. Sporting Clube de Portugal is informally known as Sporting Lisbon because there isn’t such a thing as Sporting Lisbon (Portuguese sports club), Minneapolis Timberwolves (NBA team), Boston Revolution (MLS team) or Holland (sovereign state or national football team). The article about Netherlands use the term “informally” as well and people and the media around the world still employ the name Holland when it should be Netherlands. Open your eyes! SportingPortugaledit (talk) 22:11, 3 June 2024 (UTC)

Number of league titles

Sporting CP supporters are again pushing their own league title count. Officially, the club has 20 league titles. I will revert ALL those edits per WP:ADVOCACY and WP:UNSOURCED. SLBedit (talk) 22:32, 7 May 2024 (UTC)

NOT SPORTING LISBON

Hey n word being automatically blocked, stop being offended if i call you n word being automatically blocked, ok? Everybody calls you n word being automatically blocked why are you complaining about it? Just because white people who doesn't like you call you n word being automatically blocked, and everyone else who doesn't care call you n word being automatically blocked what's the point in complaining?
