This template uses the horrid term "stats", which is not a proper word. The word "statistics" should be used instead. Bikeroo (talk) 13:52, 28 February 2015 (UTC) Bikeroo (talk) 13:52, 28 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The purpose of the template is to provision, in the External Links section, a link to the website, soccerbase.com, which is a site of Racing Post and partners with betting corporations that appear prominently on the webpage. As such this violates WP:ELNO, criteria 5. Individual web pages[6] that primarily exist to sell products or services, or to web pages with objectionable amounts of advertising. The particular use case that drew me to this was for Marcus Rashford but all site web pages appear to have links to gambling with one or more of the sites partners. When edit completed procedure WP:TFD will be continued.Djm-leighpark (talk) 22:09, 27 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
