Merge proposal
[edit]I propose that Inverted winger be merged with Midfielder.
Inverted winger is a specilaised term within the context of Winger, which is actually described in both the Forward and Midfielder articles with the bulk of the text being in Midfielder. Regrdless of the debate on whether a winger is a forward or midfield position (short answer in my opinion: both/either), there appears to be no need for a fairly short artilce on a specific type of winger when this can easily be incorporated into the existing articles.
- PS the overall 'what is a winger' debate is not helped by this article, which desribes the Inverted Winger position as that of a midfielder and states that Domenico Berardi is one of its best proponents - however a check of the player's article has him listed as a forward!

- Support merging into the topic of wingers generally. As you correctly state, wingers can and have been classed as midfielders or forwards, so there's perhaps a case for a separate article on wingers generally, but that's another argument... Jellyman (talk) 17:49, 1 March 2017 (UTC)
Female Representation on Wikipedia Association Football Pages
[edit]Please stop removing the sourced information and images of female footballers; there are reliable sources, the photo includes a player who plays in this respective position, and if anything we need more female representation in association football pages on Wikipedia. Thank you.

- Agreed, this is a perfectly appropriate form of representation to help counter WP:SYSTEMIC concerns. A single IP address has removed references to Rapinoe four times in the past month with no justification. Unless there is a clear reason to do so, this is disruptive editing.
