Hey, any input/ideas are helpful. Kante4 (talk) 12:10, 22 September 2014 (UTC)

Invitation

Thank you for your contributions to women's football/soccer articles. I thought I'd let you know about the Women's Football/Soccer Task Force (WP:WOSO), a collaborative effort to improve Misplaced Pages's coverage of women's football/soccer. If you would like to participate, join by visiting the Members page. Thanks!

IIHF World Ranking

Hey, I want to check with you on the calculation for the maximum amount of points allowed for female competition. I think it would remain 3000 and not 4200 because a team that qualifies for 2014 Olympics is not eligible for 2014 IIHF World Championship, so they cannot "double dip" the points. OhanaUnited 03:39, 28 December 2014 (UTC)

Ah, that's sneaky. Thanks for spotting it. OhanaUnited 18:44, 28 December 2014 (UTC)

World juniors

I was blind. SUI has two games yet. Thx for your correction. --CZMajkl (talk) 11:00, 30 December 2014 (UTC)

Denis Godla U18

Yeah might as well. Most other players have their U18 stats on, if they were in the tournament. Kaiser matias (talk) 00:20, 19 January 2015 (UTC)

Handball

Hey, i thought the whole preliminary round would be counting... Kante4 (talk) 20:16, 25 January 2015 (UTC)

Ok, that clears it up. My fault then. Kante4 (talk) 20:25, 25 January 2015 (UTC)

Thanks. Yeah, good idea and hopefully it helps. I also asked for protection 2 days ago but no answer, thanks admins i guess... Kante4 (talk) 20:31, 25 January 2015 (UTC)

IIHF

Hey, about the upcoming tournament(s). Is it really nessesary to write more than just the second name if only one person with this last name in the roster appears? Example: "Ovechkin" instead of A. Ovechkin. Saves a bit of space AND it's done everywhere else. You know what i mean? Kante4 (talk) 20:52, 7 February 2015 (UTC)

Yup. That's what i'm planning for the tournament(s), starting soon. Wanted just to inform you and now wait and see if/how many times i get reverted from users. Kante4 (talk) 22:20, 7 February 2015 (UTC)

Heyho, same for the roster pages, just a simple overview of who is playing and not updated stats. Don't know any other roster article where it is/was done. Like here is my idea. Kante4 (talk) 16:23, 5 March 2015 (UTC)

So, normal roster it is. ;) Interesting, will try it out, thanks. Kante4 (talk) 01:10, 7 March 2015 (UTC)

Maybe they update the pdf later or we will see when the lineup pdf comes out Kante4 (talk) 09:50, 30 March 2015 (UTC)

It did but no worries. Sometimes i'm just too lazy to update the end of a quarter. ;) Kante4 (talk) 20:51, 4 April 2015 (UTC)

Hey, wouldn't this be better in the standings? Kante4 (talk) 06:43, 11 September 2015 (UTC)

I think a general note in the standings would look better (on both). It can be removed when it does NOT happen. Kante4 (talk) 12:12, 11 September 2015 (UTC)

Added it. If you don't like it there or the wording needs to be cleared, feel free to remove or edit it. Kante4 (talk) 12:49, 11 September 2015 (UTC)

p no problem. I make enough mistakes myself and i am happy to have some help. Kante4 (talk) 14:08, 12 February 2016 (UTC)

Ok as it is i would say. Yeah, somehow they change it very often afterwards, sucks. Kante4 (talk) 17:54, 3 March 2016 (UTC)

Canada Winter Games

Not that I'm aware of. -- Earl Andrew - talk 00:26, 26 February 2015 (UTC)

The Only thing that came to my mind is the Optimist Under 18 International Curling Championships, but I have no idea how qualifying for that works. It's not a WCF sanctioned event. Maybe you could ask User:Traveltheglobe? -- Earl Andrew - talk 01:51, 26 February 2015 (UTC)

Names

Hey, i saw me adding the corret names over and over. ;) What i do to get them right is, copy the name and place them into google and if needed with the correct use of ".is" ".lt" ".lv" and so on, so results from the language sites will be searched. You know what i mean? (English not my first language :p) Kante4 (talk) 14:50, 16 April 2015 (UTC)

No problem. I'm glad that you look thorugh the results and correct my errors at times. Kante4 (talk) 15:00, 16 April 2015 (UTC)

Oooor you check the other games to see if the player already scored and just copy it. Kante4 (talk) 15:09, 16 April 2015 (UTC)

Hmm... when his article is called like this on wikipedia we go by that of course. Maybe because he's italian? Can't answer that, sorry. Kante4 (talk) 19:33, 22 April 2015 (UTC)

Olympics

Hey, looking at this and the Q article on WP, there are some different teams/tables. I "fixed" it accoding to the IIHF article. Is that correct how it stands? AUS/NZL out but BUL/GEO have a chance e.g.? Kante4 (talk) 13:07, 15 May 2015 (UTC)

No worries. The thought of countries not wanting to participate never came into my mind. ;) Kante4 (talk) 09:27, 16 May 2015 (UTC)

Yeah, i guess. Honestly, they should do a best-of whatever between USA and CAN. The tournament article for the men's tournament should be created after the WC, when the groups are known fully i think. Kante4 (talk) 21:51, 16 May 2015 (UTC)

Re: IIHF archived articles

Thank you very much for your help. — CÉDRIC: PROUDLY REGISTERED! 05:09, 26 May 2015 (UTC)

Handball

Hey, honestly i just forgot that a third place team can qualify... Shame on me! -.- Kante4 (talk) 17:38, 11 June 2015 (UTC)

Yeah, but i still forgot that. ;) Of you have the time, feel free to remove eliminated teams. Kante4 (talk) 17:46, 11 June 2015 (UTC)

Euro

Hey, thanks for contacting me. You were correct (as always when it comes to tiebreakers). I did not realize that i reverted you until... now! :D Sorry for that, i made a math error. Kante4 (talk) 10:14, 10 September 2015 (UTC)

Just hating the IP's and editors who don't check back after being reverted (ESP/ITA today). But that's over, finally... Kante4 (talk) 21:44, 10 September 2015 (UTC)

German WP

Hey, i can give you an translated version for you to contact them if needed. Kante4 (talk) 16:19, 7 November 2015 (UTC)

Die "Paul Kane" Skizze ist vom Quetico Provincial Park, nicht von beschriebenen Ort. Should be enough. Kante4 (talk) 16:31, 7 November 2015 (UTC)

If you copied the names, it's good. Will check the others ("repaired" the spanish ones already). Kante4 (talk) 16:36, 7 November 2015 (UTC)

No problem, fixed what needed fixing. Kante4 (talk) 16:43, 7 November 2015 (UTC)

2016 world juniors divisions I and II scoring leaders edit

Sorry about that, i removed it, i just realized they already had that information in the Statistics section of the article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tyanc13and7 (talk • contribs) 14:58, 29 December 2015 (UTC)

2016 World Junior Division III

Thanks for providing the clarification for the qualification tournament. Wasn't aware of that detail, which is why I removed it initially. And thanks in general for being so quick with updating all the tournaments, always good to see. Kaiser matias (talk) 04:17, 17 January 2016 (UTC)

It's true the IIHF tends to somewhat ignore the rules when it comes to the lower divisions in order to ensure teams actually compete. Though I recall that in 2013 they hosted a Division III Qualification tournament with 4 teams, and the top two went to the full Division III tournament. But that was with 8 teams at that level, which they haven't been able to reach since (though hopefully again soon).

As for the photos, I tend to upload them on Wikimedia Commons, as that way they can be used by any project and language. As for what ones are good enough, I would just use your judgment as to whether they are going to improve anything at all, and show the subject in any meaningful way. As you have some Women's U18 tournament photos, possibly the first from that tournament here, most any of them will be good enough so long as they show the players/events. Kaiser matias (talk) 05:16, 17 January 2016 (UTC)

Division II

Hey, POL, KOR, GBR is correct? Although GBR/KOR both have 2-2 in goals. All have the same points, so GD between them is decisive. Kante4 (talk) 11:12, 8 April 2016 (UTC)

All good. ;) Kante4 (talk) 22:31, 8 April 2016 (UTC)

No, you did not. ;) Was just short checking after coming home from girlfriend and before my game in real life. Now home. Kante4 (talk) 14:32, 10 April 2016 (UTC)

Relegation

Hy, just saw it now. Weird rule in my opinion. If they are relegated, they should be. But i doubt that it will happen... Kante4 (talk) 09:09, 23 April 2016 (UTC)

Agree. Not here today so would be nice if you can update the division I. Kante4 (talk) 16:37, 23 April 2016 (UTC)

Do we use stats.iihf or reports.iihf as reference. Never saw reports to be honest. Kante4 (talk) 19:53, 12 May 2016 (UTC)

Was just odd. Added the normal links now. ;) Kante4 (talk) 06:18, 13 May 2016 (UTC)

Hey, i won't be online much i think over the weekend (Monday = Holiday here). Will be away with gf and stadium and some stuff, so would be nice if you can update the games (Not sure how much i can help). ;) Kante4 (talk) 20:03, 13 May 2016 (UTC)

Only if it works, no worries. Kante4 (talk) 20:14, 13 May 2016 (UTC)

Russia and relegation

Hi. There is still theoretical possibility of relegated Russia :-) from 7th place in group (14th overall). For example, Germany last, Belarus (and Hungary) on 9 points with better goal difference than Russia :-D --CZMajkl (talk) 21:01, 12 May 2016 (UTC)

That is the reason, why there is "Automatic qualifier after a top 13 (or 14) placement" Like at 2009 IIHF WC. Standard rule, not the same case as "FRA and GER both finish 7th and 8th". — Preceding unsigned comment added by CZMajkl (talk • contribs) 21:38, 12 May 2016 (UTC)

I've replied to your question on my talk page. --CZMajkl (talk) 21:03, 15 May 2016 (UTC)

List of national ice hockey teams

Excuse me, but why do you added non-existing national teams on the list? Haven't you ever looked on the talk page lately? – AaronWikia (talk) 18:35, 16 June 2016 (UTC)

I predict a silly edit war...

Hi, thanks for the message. I too would rather remember a quite good album than get involved in a rather silly edit war - neither side are exactly covering themselves in glory here. Daveosaurus (talk) 07:37, 19 June 2016 (UTC)

World Cup of Hockey 2016

Yeah, NHL coverage of this tournament and its rules, tiebreakers etc. is pretty poor at the moment. Only that one sentence about "NHL rules". I suppose 2 points for a win etc. We can only speculate on the other things. --CZMajkl (talk) 11:20, 1 September 2016 (UTC)

Pre season friendlies

Hi, I saw you editing Ice hockey at the 2018 Winter Olympics – Men's qualification so I thought you might have something to say at 2016 World Cup of Hockey and the talkpage. There is a díscussion if we should add pre-tournament matches. Qed237 (talk) 00:50, 10 September 2016 (UTC)

Undeleting hockey players

If you ever run into that situation again feel free to let me know as well. I usually go through old afds every so often looking for players in that situation to undelete so I have no problem doing it as well. -DJSasso (talk) 14:37, 24 October 2016 (UTC)

Speedy deletion

I declined the speedy deletion of Jay McGee because saying he is a professional player is a big enough assertion to get past a speedy. The bar on no assertion of notability is very very low. I did however, convert it to a prod because he should be deleted. In the end it will amount to the same thing, but thought I would let you know for the future. -DJSasso (talk) 11:46, 27 October 2016 (UTC)

@Djsasso: Makes sense, thank you for letting me know.18abruce (talk) 13:05, 27 October 2016 (UTC)

Hockeybox

Thanks first of all for the updates. Did i miss some new features in the hockeybox template? Kante4 (talk) 13:39, 12 December 2016 (UTC)

Looks better to me. Only thing i would add is a "v" instand of the empty space before a game is played. Kante4 (talk) 13:53, 12 December 2016 (UTC)

I notice that when you leave the score line empty, it still shows the period score... Kante4 (talk) 13:09, 16 December 2016 (UTC)

2018 Winter Olympics

Hey, the FIS cross-country points list shows both Mongolia and Dominica as have qualified athletes. Not sure if we should include them based on that list (I have reverted it back to the one including them) or wait till FIS corrects their mistake? Sportsfan 1234 (talk) 23:48, 23 March 2017 (UTC)

Olympic articles

Yeah, just saw it over the course of my daily rummaging, didn't like the feel of it. Kaiser matias (talk) 15:36, 5 May 2017 (UTC)

Never heard of him, unfortunately. And I wouldn't be too surprised if he played for two teams back then, as I don't think the rules were as stringent. Still, I'd maybe suggest asking the folks at International Hockey Forums for more, as they may have more information available, and it is probably the best place for international hockey-related questions. Kaiser matias (talk) 16:02, 5 May 2017 (UTC)

Edit war

You fool! None of this would've happened because Namibia is no longer an affiliate member of the IIHF. I removed that dubious section from the national ice hockey teams list. AaronWikia (talk); 22:54, 21 May 2017 (UTC)
