Talk:El Clásico

Semi-protected edit request on 28 October 2023

Hello, I would like to change the part about the number of consecutives matches without losing in the league. On the scoreboard, we can see that Barcelona has 7 consecutive matches without losing, including 5 wins, between 2008 and 2011. In fact, they do have 7 consecutive matches without losing, but they have won 6 out of their 7 games. That is why i would like to edit the socreboard because the information on it is fake. Thank you for reading my message. RC4 Dlox (talk) 10:57, 28 October 2023 (UTC)

The Statistics Section holds value for Total Meetings Official and Most Wins Official the no. Don't add up if either the No. Is wrong or Barcelona has won more official matches which is 152 wins 116.74.136.116 (talk) 13:22, 3 January 2024 (UTC)

Friendly, charity or exhibition matches should not be taken into account

Almost virtually the entire sports press, regardless of the country, only takes official matches into account. Even if you look at the Spanish Wikipedia and Wikipedias of other languages you see that they only use the official matches.

By concept, a The Clásico match is always a competitive match. Charity, friendly or exhibition matches are never taken into account, It is not even a cultural thing in Spain to take these into account as Clásicos, nor even for culés (Barça fans) Illolenia (talk) 11:22, 13 January 2024 (UTC)

I agree, but certain users still want to add unsourced WP:OR list of friendly matches to the article (see a few sections above), even though no source ever would confirm that there were "297 El Clasicos" as of 13 Janury 2024, its all based on manually searching for friendly matches and counting stuff. Everything related to friendly exhibition matches should be erased from this article, from infobox, lead section and also statistical tables. Snowflake91 (talk) 12:08, 13 January 2024 (UTC)

There is no harm if we list friendly matches. Since it is the biggest competitive match in clubs football history, why not put friendly matches in a separate section from official matches? As long as friendly matches are reliably sourced, they should be put in place. Many people wonder how many friendly matches Real Madrid and Barcelona played, and it is a natural question. But I support removing the friendly matches in the main template and in the introduction to the article, as you did in your edit, and I am against removing them completely, especially in the matches table and the El Clásico matches list article. --Mishary94 (talk) 22:30, 13 January 2024 (UTC)

Photo

Why is there no photo at the top of the templte? In articles about other rivalries, there is a photo at the top of the template, an example in this article.212.164.39.89 (talk) 15:11, 13 January 2024 (UTC)

Is there an image you would suggest putting in the main template? --Mishary94 (talk) 22:33, 13 January 2024 (UTC)

see -- [1] -- I think there are some good photos there. -- 212.164.39.89 (talk) 09:30, 14 January 2024 (UTC)

I would prefer this photo

I would prefer a more institutional image. For example, the captains when they are about to start a match. Illolenia (talk) 13:48, 14 January 2024 (UTC)

Alternatively, I think this is the best image. Both of them are fighting equally for the ball. It's beautiful and neutral.

Illolenia (talk) 13:51, 14 January 2024 (UTC)

Why do you think that a photo that is already in the template is not neutral? - 212.164.39.89 (talk) 17:12, 14 January 2024 (UTC)

Adding the Lluis Companys stadium to Barca's home stadium(s)

Since the Camp Nou is under construction and Barca is NOT playing in the Camp Nou as of now, it would make sense that the Lluis Companys stadium is added to Barca's home stadium(s) temporarily. Barca has played numerous home games at the Lluis Companys, and on the Barca page, we can see that the home stadium is the Lluis Companys. This is a minor revision, but would have a major effect.

Another Barca player, Lamine Yamal, has also received a standing ovation at the Bernabeu in a friendly between Spain and Brazil in 2024, where he also scored. 2604:3D09:485:4E00:48B8:4DE4:A166:2931 (talk) 23:57, 17 May 2024 (UTC)

Hi, I'm the same person above who requested the edit. My request is that in the part Recent Issues, where it talks about players who have received applause from opposition fans, you add Lamine Yamal to the list. 2604:3D09:485:4E00:A848:A493:A959:7E4A (talk) 23:20, 20 May 2024 (UTC)

Lamine played as a player for the Spanish national team, not for Barcelona, and the fans who applauded were not necessarily Real Madrid fans. Also, the match is an international match and not a Clásico. There is no connection between the two cases. --Mishary94 (talk) 00:54, 21 May 2024 (UTC)
