Does this not simply duplicate information from UEFA Euro 1996? Tim (Xevious) (talk) 17:55, 19 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]


Players positions on the pitch graphic don't correspond to the positions in the team line-ups next to it

Yes, we know. I still need to update the graphic. Thanks for the reminder. – PeeJay 14:41, 16 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

5x expanded by The Rambling Man (talk). Self-nominated at 11:49, 13 August 2021 (UTC).[reply]

General: Article is new enough and long enough
Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
QPQ: Done.

Overall: Article is 5x expanded since 12 Aug, long enough, adequately referenced, QPQ done. Nothing picked up on copyvio search (only the quotations, which are clearly marked). I spotted a sentence that had gone a bit awry with typos but I have fixed that. The hook is amusing (I did wonder whether it might be worth a brief descriptor of what 'Three Lions' is, but takes away from the conciseness and I'm also not a massive football fan and I "got" it, so I think I was overthinking things). So, I'd say good to go! Chocmilk03 (talk) 09:20, 14 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • What's the source for the player positions? The match report doesn't appear to show variances such as sweeper, etc as far as I can see?
    I've used the 11v11 source now, which can be found currently at ref 32. Obviously with these positions, there's a bit of leeway in exactly where they actually ended up playing and nothing was fixed in stone. But per verification, that's as good as it gets right now.

That's all I could see. Placed on hold for now. Kosack (talk) 20:34, 2 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Kosack thanks, I think I've addressed everything. Much appreciate your time and energy. The Rambling Man (Keep wearing the mask...) 12:12, 3 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
