Wow!

Just thought I'd stop by to say "Wow". I haven't been so active in recent months, but when I come back from time to tine I see all your great work on historical football topics. It is great to see someone relatively new working so diligently in this area and generating quality work. Cbl62 (talk) 16:55, 3 August 2021 (UTC)

Sourcing

Please stop adding sources to Alexander Martin (born 1864) that have no evidence that they are dealing with him. If you're going to claim a source deals with an 1908 Olympian, it should at least mention that fact. There is no evidence that the Alexander Martin running a sports good store in Calgary is the person that competed at the 1908 summer olympics, who according to the official site was Arthur Martin. Even if the claim there was an Alexander Martin from the Martin family of Olympians who competed at the Olympics and is correct, it's most likely the one born 1895. The two sources you keep adding strem from 1922 and 1924 at which point the younger Alexander would have been 27-29 years old. A more plausible age for someone taking part in the competition one of the articles deals with than the 1908 Olympians who, according to Olympedia, would have been around 60 by then. Also note that your 1924 articles deals with a Lieut. Alex. Martin, which is the same military description given to the younger Alexander according to Olympedia. Then again according to Olympedia, the olympian Martins ran a firm called Alexander Martin Gunmakers, whereas the Calgary Martins ran a sporting goods store. I'd be willing to make a personal guess, I'd say that the Olympedia people mixed up Alexander Martin with his uncle Arthur, but that is guesswork and has no place on Wikipedia. In any case, there is no evidence whatsoever that the Calgary Martin is the same man who competed at the 1908 summer olympics other than your personal conjecture. Tvx1 20:48, 8 March 2023 (UTC)
