Name of fixture vs. date[edit]

In the Offence(s) column of the discipline table, we show the card color, relevant fixture, opponent, and date, in that order. As in:

Player	Offence(s)	Suspension
Daniëlle van de Donk	in Group E vs Portugal (matchday 1; 23 July) in Round of 16 vs South Africa (6 August)	Quarter-finals vs Spain (11 August)

Well, it's in that order for fixtures within the knockout stage, but for fixtures within the group stage, the "matchday N" information is placed with the date rather than with name of the fixture. Rather than that -- and definitely not having the knockout stage look like the group stage:

Player	Offence(s)	Suspension
Daniëlle van de Donk	in Group E vs Portugal (matchday 1; 23 July) in Knockout stage vs South Africa (Round of 16; 6 August)	Knockout stage vs Spain (Quarter-finals; 11 August)

I propose that we should make the group stage look like the knockout stage:

Player	Offence(s)	Suspension
Daniëlle van de Donk	in Group E matchday 1 vs Portugal (23 July) in Round of 16 vs South Africa (6 August)	Quarter-finals vs Spain (11 August)

Golden Glove[edit]

https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=2023_FIFA_Women%27s_World_Cup&diff=prev&oldid=1171204105

S.A. Julio what are you saying is factually incorrect? Helper201 (talk) 17:31, 19 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Helper201: The goalkeeper with the most clean sheets will win the Golden Glove award This statement is incorrect, the award winner is selected by the FIFA technical study group for the best-performing goalkeeper in the competition. If you read the Olympics.com article, it states When awarding the Golden Glove, a FIFA panel considers clean sheets, saves and overall performances of each contending goalkeeper. So the award is not purely based on the number of clean sheets. Also note that no past Men's or Women's World Cup articles have a statistics section for clean sheets, as including every statistical category would cause a WP:NOTSTATS issue. S.A. Julio (talk) 22:36, 19 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Tournament Rankings[edit]

What is the source for the tournament rankings? This seems to go well beyond WP:CALC and into WP:OR territory. Does FIFA maintain an official ranking of tournament teams? GoPats (talk) 23:26, 19 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@GoPats: In previous tournaments FIFA did publish rankings, but they have not done so in recent years. The source given is clearly not a WP:RS, the section should therefore be removed as WP:OR. This has been discussed numerous times in recent years with the Women's and Men's World Cups (for example here, here, here, here and here), the consensus is that it should only be added if FIFA officially publish the ranking.

Australian, New Zealand, or U.S. dollars[edit]

Can it please be made clear on the page when talking about dollars (such as in the prize money section) what currency this is in as multiple countries including the hosts use different types of dollars with different currency values. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A00:23C6:E884:2A01:61CA:EA27:6821:9563 (talk) 15:03, 20 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

If you look at source 13, it will tell you which type of country dollar is used for team's prize money. Iggy (Swan) (Contribs) 15:47, 20 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

This should still be made clear in the Wikipedia article itself. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A00:23C6:E884:2A01:61CA:EA27:6821:9563 (talk) 16:17, 20 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Agree so that's now visible to everyone. Iggy (Swan) (Contribs) 16:57, 20 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Why would US dollars even be an option? HiLo48 (talk) 00:29, 21 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
