"and later president of the club." Didn't you get a list of these presidents through FLC? Seems like a good link for context. Same with the managers earlier in that sentence.

Should appearances 1981 and before be using the older Spanish flags?

What month(s) is the competition usually held in?

"Köln subsequently won the competition in 1978 and 1981 and were runners-up in 1981," Umm... check that. Can't win and be 2nd in the same year.

Flags again, that wasn't Bulgaria's flag in 1972.

That said, advancing the flags to modern in the "Appearances by club" section makes sense.

Ah, I should have thought of the wikilink and checked the flags. Oh well, all done now, thanks for pointing it out. Sandman888 (talk) ^{Latest PR} 00:41, 23 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• "usually held in late August" reference?
  • Whose season? The Rambling Man (talk) 22:02, 24 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
    • Link Barcelona first time round. The Rambling Man (talk) 06:43, 25 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
• "Barcelona. It is named in" merge "Barcelona and is named..."
• "a 800 grams silver cup with five micrometres of gold finishing, on-top of a 10-kilogram"
  • Would like to see these converted.
    • Converted, there is no imperial equivalent for micrometres.
  • "a 800 grams" -> an 800-gram.
• "Barça were joined" avoid this nickname, just stick with Barcelona.
• "Barcelona beat the latter team 3–1 in the final. Köln subsequently" "the latter team" reads poorly to me. Needs a small revision to avoid the inevitable repeat of Koln, I understand, but please try.
  • "beat the German team..." I think it sounds worse.
• " The next edition saw the first appearance of another Spanish team, Atlético Madrid, who were joined by German side Bayern Munich, and Argentine Boca Juniors" makes it sound like only three teams in this edition.
• "Bayern were runners-up in 1984, 1987 and 2006. Boca became the first of several South American guests to be invited and have since returned in 1977, 1984, 2003 and 2008." merge with "2006 while Boca..."
• "the Italian Serie A" you qualify Serie A (even though it's linked) with "the Italian", similarly with "Spanish La Liga", is this really necessary?
  • TBH I think a lot of non-Europeans would not. I don't see the harm. If they need to know what 800 grams is...
    • You don't say German Bundesliga though? The Rambling Man (talk) 06:43, 25 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
• "most notably Tenerife and Valencia" perhaps just "including" rather than "most notably".
• Did I miss where the teams selected to play are determined? Are Barcelona always involved?
  • Is that a rhetorical question? It is stated that Barcelona host the tournament, seems to be labouring the point to include a sentence stating they also participate.
• Table:
  • Winners->Winner
  • Runners Up->Runner-up
• What does (p) mean?
• Should Újpest sort after or before V? Right now it sorts after V (in alphabetical order).
• "Participations by club" -> Participation by club.
• This table shouldn't be all cells, it looks terrible, perhaps just two columns, no rowspans.
  • Could you clarify what you mean?
    • Just have two columns, one for # of participations, one for the clubs. The Rambling Man (talk) 22:02, 24 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• Lead. "hosted by Spanish club FC Barcelona" not side
• "on-top" shouldn't have a hyphen
• If it was me, I'd put the score in the final between the teams participating in the final, rather than between the r-u and the 3rd
• If including the third-place playoff teams in the table, why omit the score in that game?
  • Hmm between 3rd and 4th?
    • That's what I was asking, yes.
• There are a few club names which would be clearer using their English common names and/or not piped quite so much:
  • Crvena Zvezda is still Red Star Belgrade, after 6 (and counting) requested moves, and certainly would have been in 2002;
  • Athletic Club doesn't imply Athletic Bilbao, to the general English reader;
  • FC Zurich rather than just Zurich, to avoid confusion with Grasshoppers;
  • Use Moscow rather than Moskva for the various Moscow clubs, as their respective page names do;
  • If it was me, I'd use Rapid Vienna and Steaua Bucharest, even though the page names don't, but others might disagree;
  • AC Milan for clarity.
• Following on from that, if you're keeping the flags in the Participation by clubs section, despite the aesthetic opinions expressed at WT:MOSICON, please could you put non-breaking spaces between each flag and its club, to keep them together at line breaks.
  • The &nbsp's didn't work for me, on Firefox, Chrome or IE7; did they for you? The next suggestion from Wikipedia:Line break handling is ((nowrap)), which does work, at least on FF3.6
    • Removed per below.
• Also, could you clarify what the flags in that section mean. They appear to indicate the countries the clubs are based in as of 2010, not the countries they were in when they appeared in the trophy...
  • If that really is what you intended, please could you say why? I don't see the relevance of the 2010 country to a 1969 participation.
    • Removed per below.
• In 2002, would Belgrade not have been in Serbia and Montenegro rather than Serbia?
  • Still seems to be in Serbia
    • Sorry missed it.
• The Titles by club doesn't sort, because of the rowspan
  • Unsortable, was no real point in that.

• "Barcelona were joined by Belgian RSC Anderlecht, French FC Nantes and German FC Koln." I get the feeling that the word "side" or similar is missing before each of the team names. I also know that you want to avoid repeated that word, so how about this: "Barcelona were joined by RSC Anderlecht of Belgium, FC Nantes of France and FC Koln of Germany."?
• Later on I see "Argentine Boca Juniors." Here, "Argentina's" would work fine; in fact, a similar solution could work as an alternate to the suggestion above.
• Bonus points for the flag legend, It's a creative approach to resolving a problem that has been seen intermittently at FLC for a while. If there were 100 countries or something it wouldn't be as practical, but for this number it functions well.
• Is reference 5 a Spanish-language page? If so, it should have an indication of the language, just like reference 3. Giants2008 (27 and counting) 03:44, 27 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • It's all "Country's Club", the language parameter added. Thanks for review. Sandman888 (talk) ^{Latest PR} 04:49, 27 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
