Cleanup

I have noted a few problems with this article and added a few cleanup templates:

The article is pushing very heavily toward a certain POV, and it makes some arguments without attributing them to its sources. This gives the impression that Wikipedia is taking a stance on an issue; however, this violates Wikipedia's policy of maintaining a neutral point of view.
Some of the sources themselves are not suitable for Wikipedia. I removed a few citations to Wikipedia itself, as Wikipedia is not a reliable source. I left many others, because they seem to be self-published sources, but I didn't want to jump to conclusions based on the site's "about us" page. Blogs, home pages, forums, and other self-published sources are not suitable for citing facts on Wikipedia, as they can claim anything with impunity. Sources should generally have professional editorial overview or be recognized experts in their field.
Bare URLs are used in many of the citations. This is discouraged because it makes maintaining the article more difficult when they eventually go dead.

More citations would also be good. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 03:54, 18 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Table

For the England and Wales section it would be good to have a table of the stadia that have safe standing and how many places in that stadium are safe standing. Crex44 (talk) 19:54, 1 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
