Based on http://www.pitchero.com/clubs/brimsdownfc/news/?filter=user&fid=661160 I added the {{ connected contributor}} template to Talk:Brimsdown F.C.. If you are not the "Lee Okugbeni" mentioned on that page and have no connection to the football club, please remove the template and add a disclaimer to Talk:Brimsdown F.C. explaining why you have such a similar username, and consider changing your username. Instructions for changing your username can be found at Wikipedia:Username policy. If you are this person, there is no need to change your username, but you do need to abide by Wikipedia's conflict of interests guidelines. davidwr/( talk)/( contribs) 16:16, 17 September 2013 (UTC)
There are a few ways in which people with a conflict of interest can make contribution to Wikipedia:
- They can make suggestions on the Talk page of articles in which they have conflicts of interest
- They can submit articles through articles for creation, as you originally attempted to do with Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Brimsdown FC.
- The can remove material that does not comply with policies (all editors are encouraged to fix content-policy violations in articles). Most commonly this would be Wikipedia:Copyright policy and Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons.
- When the edits are trivial in nature and do not affect content. For example, fixing obvious typographical errors or making minor formatting changes.
Editors who have contributed heavily to an article or to an AFC draft that is later turned into an article are encouraged to add the {{ connected contributor}} template to the article's talk page. It typically goes right below any wikiproject-related templates but above any actual discussions.

Hello and
welcome to Wikipedia. When you add content to
talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion (but never when editing articles), please be sure to
sign your posts. There are two ways to do this. Either:
- Add four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment; or
- With the cursor positioned at the end of your comment, click on the signature button (
or
) located above the edit window.
This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.
Thank you. -- SineBot ( talk) 00:32, 18 September 2013 (UTC)
Re:
I am an academy scout at a high profile club and I get calls from players, clubs, agents, parents all the time. I use wiki to look up the clubs they've played at and the league they are in (however seemingly obscure someone else may feel they are). I can use other sources but wiki is the only source that has one click movement around the leagues and teams and where they promote to. I'm not the only scout/agent that does that. What a football supporter/statistician/enthusiast/archivist etc may feel irrelevant has a more practical application to someone like me. Brimsdown themselves used wiki when deciding on which leagues were reasonably available to them. the inclusion of Brimsdown FC is part of that because of the league in which they play. 77.99.152.24 (talk) 19:37, 23 September 2013 (UTC)
on Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Brimsdown F.C.:
Perhaps it's time to start a specialized web site using Wikipedia's software that will be a "Wikipedia of British Football". Or perhaps expanding The Football Wiki or The Football Database Wiki instead. davidwr/( talk)/( contribs) 23:13, 23 September 2013 (UTC)
