Fair use rationale for Image:Home United FC.gif

Image:Home United FC.gif is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Unverified replacement of player Adam Swandi with Muhammad Syamer Zamzimi Ariffin

Hi there, multiple IP addresses 27.125.242.89 (talk · contribs) 27.125.242.137 (talk · contribs) 27.125.242.41 (talk · contribs) 27.125.242.233 (talk · contribs) and others that I assume are used by the same person, have been replacing Adam Swandi (24 y.o. Singaporean) with Muhammad Syamer Zamzimi Ariffin (who is apparently a 13 y.o. Malaysian) in multiple pages:

I suspect that this is disruptive editing as the changes appear to generally only be a change in the name and date of birth. (no change in refs, contract period etc) I can't seem to find any evidence that this person exists on Google, let alone is part of the football clubs. However, I'm not the most knowledgable in the area and don't want to start an edit war (user has undone my removal of their change in this article), therefore I'm not currently going to revert any of the changes without the opinions of other editors.

The user could also possibly to block evading, see User_talk:27.125.242.233 and User_talk:27.125.242.89.

Pinging @Walter Görlitz: who placed block evasion notices and @Justanothersgwikieditor: who has reverted similar changes on the articles by other IP address which are potentially also the same person.

Thank you for the help. Eliyr (talk) 13:04, 29 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Iancash81: Hey there, saw that you reverted one of the changes mentioned here and thought it would be appropriate to alert you to this. Also noticed you have made numerous edits related to Football in Singapore and felt you would find this relevant. I could use some of your help and advice on this as you seem more experienced in this field. Thanks! Eliyr (talk) 15:35, 29 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The Malaysian editor tends to supply Muslim names for players. It could be that this subject has undergone a conversion and changed their name. It could also be that the Malaysian editor is just being disruptive. Walter Görlitz (talk) 18:57, 29 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

That's a possibility I hadn't really considered. However his date of birth was also changed on some of the articles with that information, which would make me think they are not the same person.

It seems that the change has been reverted from most of the pages, although it can still be found here. Eliyr (talk) 23:48, 29 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Eliyr and Walter Görlitz: Adam Swandi is a Muslim name already, despite Adam being a Christian sounding name but it is also a common Muslim name, see Adam (given name). If there is a change in his name, his own article would be changed and definitely news in Singapore. The change on his page, ends up just club change etc, see this and this. I believe this is a case of strained Malaysia-Singapore relationships. My conclusion is just that this editor is simply SPA doing plain disruptive editing. Tagging Walter Görlitz is correct since he is on the tail of this guy for a few years already, see User talk:Walter Görlitz#Nicholas Gecks. Until the admins blocked the new range, or extend the block, we just keep on reverting. --Justanothersgwikieditor (talk) 01:46, 30 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The Malaysian editor "expands" player names frequently. It would be good to know why. As a power tool, this IP range or changing that to /16 will get most edits made from that ISP. Patters show up quite easily. Walter Görlitz (talk) 07:30, 30 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

lcs stadium

Why is user Chipunkdavis constantly removing the fact that the Sailors' stadium is Bishan, not Jalan Besar? [1] [2] [3] It's literally incorrect — Preceding unsigned comment added by Arifanfin (talk • contribs) 19:40, 15 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
