English Wikipedia

Season-by-season appearances and goals from players' English Wikipedia articles (and, later, club-season articles), read through the MediaWiki API with each article's revision kept. A secondary source: cross-checked against the archive's own results and team sheets and shown as "according to Wikipedia" with the article and revision. Tables the archive derives from it are offered under CC BY-SA 4.0.
