Source for Women's World Cup Statistics Data

You were asking for a source on this data, but there is literally no source available at the moment. All the data was compiled by me, and is stored on my PC, I've sent it over to a women's rugby data website who will put it up at some stage, and can link it to there when appropriate.

What would you recommend in the meantime? HitchikersPie (talk) 09:35, 15 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I assume you are talking about Records and statistics of the Women's Rugby World Cup. As you said you compiled the data yourself I recommend you read Wikipedia:No original research. Can I also ask the name of the women's rugby data website you mention? It will need to meet the Wikipedia:Reliable sources guidelines. I would assume it will as I can't think of a reason that means it wont.

Information on the topic is very sparse, especially since the scrumqueens website shut down. If you can find any refereces separate to your research and the website that would be great. Regarding the Added {{More citations needed}} tag, this is mainly there so that any other editors can improve the page.

In the meantime I would advice asking at the Teahouse they are far more experienced than me and will probably explain it better. You should start with the message you posted on my talk page (this page). I suspect they will recomend the page is moved to a draft until the source on the website you mentioned is published. You can also create a topic on Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Rugby union to see if any other users interest in rugby union can provide any sources they may be aware of.

Sorry I could be of no more help. Louis (talk) (contribs) 22:00, 15 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

https://womensrugbydata.com/womens-rugby-world-cup-1991/

This is the one, they have the info up for some of the World Cups individual scoring, but not all (so far).

I've got sources for all the data from variously world.rugby/game archive, ESPN, and an internet archived dutch website. So it's a matter of just glueing everything together and then totting up the sums, which is laborious, but hardly novel. HitchikersPie (talk) 23:05, 22 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@HitchikersPie I was browsing recently and found these on the official world cup website, you may have seen them before but I thought I would share them just in case. 1991, 1994, 1998, 2002, 2006, 2010, 2014, 2017, &2021 Louis (talk) (contribs) 21:54, 28 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

2025 RWC Squads

Seems we both started to do the same, you on 2025 Women's Rugby World Cup squads and me on Draft:2025 Rugby World Cup squads. If you want you can copy my table with the USA squad and I'll ask for the deletion of my draft. --PotatoNerd (talk) 17:11, 18 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, I didn't make 2025 Women's Rugby World Cup squads some one else did but it was quite bare bones. Will copy over table. Louis (talk) (contribs) 17:16, 18 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Edit summary

no need to leave an edit summary for every edit you do especially for this one as MSport explained correctly in a previous edit. I would just be repeating what they said in that case. Thanks 👍 RxxingAddict (talk) 23:31, 17 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Only 14.8% of all your edits have edit summaries. - https://xtools.wmcloud.org/editsummary/en.wikipedia.org/RxxingAddict . also there is no need to come to my talk page when I can talk to you on yours, you did reply to my message on there already. Louis (talk) (contribs) 23:51, 17 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Okay…? I dont have to explain my edit.. when I add sources RxxingAddict (talk) 19:30, 18 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

The majority of edits i make anyway are minor edits RxxingAddict (talk) 19:34, 18 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

further, edit summaries don't have to be detailed. you can see Wikipedia:Edit summary legend for commonly used edit summary abbreviations Louis (talk) (contribs) 23:54, 17 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Ellie Kildunne

I don’t understand why you consider that listing her international tries would be cruft, and wonder if you could elucidate?

For male rugby players it’s the norm to include a table of their international tries in their Wikipedia article but to date articles on their female counterparts have not done likewise, and this seems an inequality which can easily be rectified.

In the case of Brian Driscoll, who has scored an equivalent number of tries as Ellie Kildunne, a separate page has been created to list his tries as his article is already quite long: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_international_rugby_union_tries_by_Brian_O%27Driscoll and the same could be done for Kildunne, either now or in the future.

Thoughts on this?

MrArmstrong2 (talk) 17:37, 19 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

It was discussed on the rugby union wiki project talk page that we should avoid listing tries out individually as would be incredibly tedious. You can see more here. You are probably best discussing it in a new topic there Louis (talk) (contribs) 19:51, 19 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your reply and your link to the wiki project talk page, in which I will post my thoughts.

When you say: ‘listing tries out individually as would be incredibly tedious’ do you mean tedious to research and edit within the article, or tedious to read? To me those two are quite different.

Given that the list of Ellie Kildunne’s tries will be quite lengthy, I would propose listing them in a separate page, as has been done with Brian Driscoll and a number of other players.

MrArmstrong2 (talk) 14:56, 22 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I am pretty neutral on the topic of tries scored being listed, but i can see how others view it being as over the top. When I say tedious I mean it could be tedious to keep an accurate up to date record with adequite citations for each try scored.

I believe the reason why Brian O'Driscoll has his own page for tries is because he is (or was, i'm not 100% sure) the record Irish try scorer. The record for the red roses is 62, held by Sue Day and as of 4 September 2025 Ellie had 42 tries for England.

If you have a good source for each of the tries she has scored in my view that will be enough for a page to be created. Louis (talk) (contribs) 23:24, 22 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Need help

Hello, I would like to inquire about the process for removing a company’s Wikipedia page. On behalf of the company’s representatives who do not wish for the page to remain, I am seeking guidance on the necessary steps to have the page removed. If any verification or additional information is required, we are prepared to provide the necessary documentation. I would appreciate any assistance you can offer. Thank you Orbykut (talk) 13:26, 21 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

There's nothing negative about the company in the Wikipedia article. But the company doesn't want to be on Wikipedia. Is there anything that can be done about this? Orbykut (talk) 13:36, 21 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

No, i don't think so. but what is the page? Louis (talk) (contribs) 13:36, 21 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

appin (company) Orbykut (talk) 13:37, 21 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

It is not the company's decision to remove the page from wikipedia. Articles don't get removed because they don't want to be on here. Wikipedia is an encyclopaedia. If the company or persons information is in the public domain and it is considered to be notable enough for an article through notability guidelines then that's all that matters. Sorry. Louis (talk) (contribs) 13:43, 21 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Talk page stalker here - see this YouTube video "The man who wants to ban all mention of his name (unless it’s nice)". It's about Appin. Looks like the same is being tried by stealth on Wikipedia now. 10mmsocket (talk) 13:56, 21 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Wow, ok. Not surprising tbh looking at the page. The company seems defunct anyway. Louis (talk) (contribs) 14:01, 21 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
