Edit to Template:F1 driver results legend

Hi BleuDXXXIV. I noticed your recent edit to Template:F1 driver results legend. However I notice that Template:F1 driver results legend 2 shows Not Classified (NC) as blue rather than purple. So you may need to check that. Regards. DH85868993 02:54, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

Stage Win on Time Trial

I reverted your change on Floyd Landis. Where have you seen something that says a Time Trial victory doesn't count as a stage win? Just look at the last Tour, Cadel Evans' team is suing Vinokorov over the loss of publicity following a stage win on the Time Trial. Every Time Trial I've seen ends with someone being named the stage winner, if there's some specific rule that you know of, please let me know. Cogswobbletalk 14:02, 22 August 2007 (UTC)

I was referring on team time trial. If you look Landis's profile at trap-friis for example, it doesn't have any information about that victory. And indeed, he won TTT in 2003 as well. Meanwhile, Lance Armstrong's profile says he has 22 stage wins in TdF, as it should be. TTTs aren't counted towards his record, and the situation is same for most other riders as well. There was three ITTs in 2004 Tour (including prologue), won by Cancellara and Armstrong (who won two of them) BleuDXXXIV 18:59, 22 August 2007 (UTC)

Ah, gotcha. Yes, Team Time Trials don't count as Stage Victories, I wasn't aware that it was a Team Time Trial that he had won. Thanks for catching that! Cogswobbletalk 17:02, 23 August 2007 (UTC)

2008 GP2 Series season

Hi BleuDXXXIV. Thanks for updating the article after the first race at Monaco. There's just one thing I am curious about however - what does the obelisk/dagger next to Mike Conway's result mean? It's not in the key under the results tables.-- Diniz(talk) 15:36, 23 May 2008 (UTC)

OK, I see now. Thanks for the quick response!-- Diniz(talk) 15:50, 23 May 2008 (UTC)

Ret-->DNS reversions

Hi BleuDXXXIV. You may have noticed that I reverted your recent edits to 1995 Brazilian Grand Prix‎, 1995 Formula One season‎, Pierluigi Martini‎, Eddie Irvine,‎ Olivier Beretta‎, 1994 Spanish Grand Prix‎, 1994 British Grand Prix‎ and 1994 Formula One season‎. I did this for two reasons:

• the official result for these drivers at these races as listed at www.formula1.com is "Ret" rather than "DNS". When a driver retires on the warmup lap, it's always debatable whether they "retired" or "failed to start". Unfortunately, we can't just apply a blanket decision, e.g. that retirement on the warmup lap should always be considered as a DNS - we really need to be guided by the official results on a case by case basis.
• to maintain consistency with List of Formula One drivers and List of Formula One driver records, which also list number of starts for drivers.

I'm happy to discuss the matter further, either here or at WT:F1. Regards. DH85868993 (talk) 02:51, 18 June 2008 (UTC)

I'll raise the specific results in question for discussion at WP:F1. OK? DH85868993 (talk) 10:23, 22 June 2008 (UTC)

I've created the discussion. DH85868993 (talk) 12:17, 22 June 2008 (UTC)

UCI codes of Garmin and Columbia

Hi, I just reverted your change of Team Garmin-Chipotle's UCI code, since letour.fr still uses the old codes in its standings, and I believe it important that we keep the old code while it is in use (since it does not match the name, and thus is extra notable). After that, I saw that you had done the same thing to Team Columbia, and also found that letour.fr uses the new codes in their team lists, but not in any standings. So, I'm having second thoughts about having reverted you. A change is clearly in progress right now. Maybe both codes should be in the article. We're bound to see TSL and THR pop up in various lists for quite some time, so I think it is a bad idea if they disappear completely. Feel free to re-revert me if you think that's the best option./Coffeeshivers (talk) 21:45, 12 July 2008 (UTC)

I'm not sure if you intended this or it was an accident, but you duplicated this entire article on your last edit there. I'm assuming good faith right now. Please be careful with your edits and use "Preview" button before saving changes. Thanks. LeaveSleaves (talk) 15:17, 7 September 2008 (UTC)

Barona Areena

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Barona Areena, and it appears to be very similar to another wikipedia page: LänsiAuto Areena. It is possible that you have accidentally duplicated contents, or made an error while creating the page— you might want to look at the pages and see if that is the case. If you are intentionally moving or duplicating content, please be sure you have followed the procedure at Wikipedia:Splitting by acknowledging the duplication of material in edit summary to preserve attribution history.

This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page. CorenSearchBot (talk) 17:34, 1 February 2009 (UTC)

Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you recently tried to give LänsiAuto Areena a different title by copying its content and pasting it into Barona Areena. This is known as a "cut and paste move", and it is considered undesirable because it splits the page history which is needed for attribution and various other purposes. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.

In most cases, once your account is four days and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page. This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other articles that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Cut and paste move repair holding pen. Thank you. —Snigbrook 17:47, 3 February 2009 (UTC)

Dates

Hi, I noticed that you linked a date or two when you created Juha-Pekka Hytönen. This practice is now deprecated. Please see WP:LINKING and WP:MOSNUM. I'm happy to respond to any inquiries you may have about the matter. Ohconfucius (talk) 08:42, 22 May 2009 (UTC)

Tony Maggs/first warning

Please do not re-add a date of death for Tony Maggs. There is no indication that he is deceased, nor have you offered any proof or linked references to this effect.
