Hi, have a look at your subbed entry here:
A34088042
I have removed all the non-working wiki links and most of the other ones as they didn't link to the named event but just to the general homepages of the clubs, hence not adding anything to the entry. I have linked to EDITED h2g2 entries where appropriate and available.
I have corrected the peculiar guide ml you used.
Just an advice for future entries:
Approved guide ml for Edited Guide Entries has all guide ml tags in capitals. tags are only used within quotes, which are between tags; paragraphs are put into tags. Headers aren't put as subject/article/body/guide etc, but between tags.
>>He won a massive 37 international caps for Northern Ireland between 1964 and 1977. He won the first of these caps when <<
I take it you mean cups, not caps?
Please let me know if it's OK with you so that I can return it to the eds.

Hi! Great!
In the quote there, when I did research, it said "caps" rather than "cups" so that's what I put. If it's wrong, fire away and correct it.
I trust you with it. Think I'd tried to find h2g2 entries as much as possible, but think for a lot of teams etc there weren't any entries.
If you're happy, I'm happy. You seem to know what you're doing better than me.
Thanks for all your work.

Well, I looked up caps but couldn't find anything remotely related to football, which is why I asked.
I'll search some more.

I'll see if I can find where I first found it and let you know.

Oh, I found where you found it, which is why I said I'd look for other sources.

OK, end of the first paragraph here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Best
Know it's Wiki, but still....
Think I've heard sports newsreaders talknbg about caps too. Like the number of matches played or as captain or something.

Well I'll admit, I've never really been a football follower myself, but just *had* to write about George. It is surprising what you learn.
I've already had one entry edited about him with another on the way, though the big boss editors might link?

I've put the link to your edited entry in anyway, and the curators can interlink once they've all been edited.
