DFC on wikipedia

Post by biccynana » Sun Jun 04, 2017 3:48 pm

Happy to see someone has put the DFC wikipedia entry right - no more “DFC was an English football club" etc, and no longer a separate entry for D1883.

I mentioned it on the original DFC Chat Page on Wiki a week or two ago suggesting the pages be merged...Good to see it has now been done

Great, but I'd rather it had the SG's trading name shown against "Major Shareholder".

"Darlington FC Supporters Group" is the trading name of Darlington 1883 Supporters’ Society Limited.

Wonder if we could change the name of our own society and get rid of the digits there, too?

I'm sure anyone can just create an account on wiki and change various pages. Well played to those who are doing it on our behalf.

I've also noticed the National League website still has us down as Darlington 1883 too.

I've sent an e mail to them requesting for our correct name to be reflected across their website.

There will be other websites that may need correcting as we move forward...

It's 'minor' stuff really but satisfying nonetheless to see us back as 'just' Darlington

Don't think the name change becomes effective till after the National League AGM on the 10th June.

I've also managed to update the players section.
