Dear users, voting is now over. After review of the remarks and comments made by some users and the overall voting, the policy proposal was '''ACCEPTED'''. As a result this policy is in force from December 3rd, 2014.


Hereby I would like to make a new proposal regarding player notability. The [http://wiki.hattrick.org/w/index.php?title=Hattrick:Player&oldid=115674 current proposal] regarding player notability defines clearly the difference between notable and non-notable players, with notable players being National- and/or U-20-team members or HT Masters top scorers. Basically it seems to me that there is nothing wrong with this classification. However, it is also stated that there are too many players and that not all can enter the wiki, which is probably the reason why for non-notable players, the policy states that non-notable players should only be created as part of a subdirectory, such as [[Lokomotiv Veltem Back-on-Track/Emin Muhammet Oğulbay]] instead of [[Emin Muhammet Oğulbay]].
The discussion and voting result was kept at [[Archive:Policy proposals]].
 
I propose to keep the notability classification, but also to revise this policy to allow ALL players to be created directly without using a subdirectory.
Two downsides:
1) All current non-notable player pages will need to be moved.
2) The risk for having two identically named players increases.
 
Upsides:
1) It will make editing and specifically linking so much more straightforward!
2) We can get rid of the teamname in the article, it doesn't make sense!
3) The probability of having two identically named players minor and can be resolved easily. My proposal in case of players with the same name: multiple articles will be created, each named ==> '''firstname''' '''lastname''' (id='''playerid''') <== and a disambiguation page can be created, such as for instance for [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sam_Smith Sam Smith on wikipedia].
 
PS: note that this November this wiki turned 9 years. the policies for both [http://wiki.hattrick.org/w/index.php?title=Hattrick:Notability&action=history Notability] and [http://wiki.hattrick.org/w/index.php?title=Hattrick:Player&action=history Players] have not been adapted since 2009 and have been agreed upon by probably not more than ten users in 2006 or so...
