What we changed
Football statistics adapted from Wikipedia articles by Wikipedia contributors, CC BY-SA 4.0. We took the league appearance and goal columns from squad-statistics tables, league goals from match-result scorers columns and senior-career spells from player infoboxes; checked them against the CC0 results; merged them with Wikidata identity; and re-encoded them as compact JSON. Cup and European figures are left out, and assists are not included. A game never shows a figure that is flagged as incomplete.
No data from premierleague.com, the Fantasy Premier League API, Opta or any other league-owned feed is used. The full statement is in ATTRIBUTION.md.
Every Wikipedia revision used
Each link opens the exact revision the statistics came from; “Authors” opens that article's history, its list of contributors. Also available as attribution.json.
