Lance stroll edit

Why were my edits removed from Lance stroll? I added true information from multiple sources including espnf1 and wtf1 on Instagram. 2001:8003:1624:5B00:D481:7AD5:9C3F:BCB9 (talk) 10:09, 16 December 2022 (UTC)Reply

@2001:8003:1624:5B00:D481:7AD5:9C3F:BCB9: You didn't provide a reliable source for the statements that he is a "pay driver". DH85868993 (talk) 10:39, 16 December 2022 (UTC)Reply
But I did? I literally just stated two reliable sources. ESPN and wtf1, they are both run by journalists 2001:8003:1624:5B00:D481:7AD5:9C3F:BCB9 (talk) 12:51, 16 December 2022 (UTC)Reply
(talk page watcher) @2001:8003:1624:5B00:D481:7AD5:9C3F:BCB9: With this edit information was added without a source, including the statement that he is a pay driver. With this one the words 'pay driver' were inserted in front of an existing source which does not support that information. Eagleash (talk) 13:22, 16 December 2022 (UTC)Reply
@2001:8003:1624:5B00:D481:7AD5:9C3F:BCB9: To expand, it's not sufficient to just mention the name of a website in the edit summary, you need to provide a link to a specific webpage which explicitly supports the added statements, preferably as an inline citation in the article text (see WP:IC for details).

Tyre data edit

Hi DH85868993 I saw you removed my addition of tyre suppliers to the race results for the 2005 Australian Grand Prix but please can you restore my edit as it is inline with other Wikipedia F1 race results. Tyre supplier data is included on official TV coverage results from the period and we have reached consensus that tyre data can be added for Grands Prix which have more than one tyre supplier (IE Bridgestone and Michelin) but not for races that only have one, where it is viewed as redundant (IE just Goodyear or just Bridgestone or Pirelli). This is reflected in official TV coverage or timing data. I am intending to add more for the 2005 season and others. Finally, though, I'd like to add I appreciate your efforts to keep the F1 race data clean as this is important! :) Theoutside29 (talk) 20:12, 7 January 2023 (UTC)Reply

Hi Theoutside29. I've restored your edit (and fixed the column headings). I hadn't noticed that some of the race reports include tyre data. I've added a "with tyre data" variant to the page detailing the standard race results table format. Regards. DH85868993 (talk) 22:00, 7 January 2023 (UTC)Reply
Thanks for your rapid response DH85868993 :) Best regards. Theoutside29 Theoutside29 (talk) 12:01, 8 January 2023 (UTC)Reply
@Theoutside29: No worries. Thanks for adding the tyre data to those other 2005 race reports. Just a reminder that because you've added an extra column into the table, the footer row one needs to be one column wider, and if you change the number of sources from one to more than one, the word "Source" should be changed to "Sources". (I've made these corrections to the articles you updated in the past 24 hours). Regards. DH85868993 (talk) 08:58, 9 January 2023 (UTC)Reply

Toro Rosso engine results edit

Hi, it seems that you forgot to remove the points from Renault, when you did this. I've made the change at {{F1estat}}, but thought I'd let you know in case I'm wrong and they were already not included, or something. SSSB (talk) 07:10, 10 February 2023 (UTC)Reply

@SSSB: No, you were correct: I forgot to deduct the points from Renault's total, and I completely forgot about {{F1estat}}. Thanks for cleaning up my mess! Regards. DH85868993 (talk) 11:57, 10 February 2023 (UTC)Reply

Glover Trophy edit

You've obviously spotted that the Glover Trophy and the Richmond Trophy aren't always synonymous, see here for details: https://web.archive.org/web/20141105125505/http://www.barc.net/Hackedsite/images/stories/Glover_Trophy.pdf I was planning on having a go at sorting out the confusion but a bit more research is required. Halmyre (talk) 21:05, 1 April 2023 (UTC)Reply

@Halmyre: Thanks for the clarification regarding the Glover and Richmond Trophies and for creating Richmond Trophy Race. As you may have seen, I created Category:Richmond Trophy Race. Do you think 1955 Glover Trophy, 1956 Glover Trophy and 1957 Glover Trophy (which are linked from Richmond Trophy Race#Winners) should be included in Category:Richmond Trophy Race? DH85868993 (talk) 00:02, 7 April 2023 (UTC)Reply
Thanks, yes, those races are identified as the Richmond Trophy race in contemporary Motor Sport articles. I'll go ahead and update them accordingly. Halmyre (talk) 08:00, 7 April 2023 (UTC)Reply

Haas Lola edit

In this edit you reverted an edit I made alterring an edit location directing the a car called a Lola, but not built by Lola or Lola staff to Haas Lola. The THL1 and THL2 cars whilst called Lolas were actually designed and built by FORCE, a part of the then Haas Lola organisation. They were called Lola because Carl Haas had a financial interest in Lola, effectively making Lola a sponsor. Whilst convention it is nonetheless inaccurate. Several Brabham race cars were called Repco Brabhams but generally they are called Brabhams as Repco was a sponsor and in most cases did not even provide engines as most were powered by Coventry Climax, Ford, Honda or even Alfa Romeo engines. -- Falcadore (talk) 02:38, 1 August 2023 (UTC)Reply

Hi Falcadore. The THL1 and THL2 are described at both Haas Lola and Lola Cars, so the word "Lola" could arguably be linked to either article (although I think it makes sense to consistently link to one or the other). Given that the cars are included in {{Lola}} and Category:Lola Formula One cars, I lean towards linking it to Lola Cars, per the current convention, but you're more than welcome to start a discussion at WT:F1. DH85868993 (talk) 03:43, 1 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
So your preference is against accuracy and to prefer the status quo? I just want you to realise that is what you are saying before I start a discussion. The history of the the two designs is very well known and documented so it's not like it can be disputed. I mean are you really saying you prefer the convention because that's where it is now and you don't care as to accuracy? --Falcadore (talk) 06:20, 1 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
@Falcadore: I've done some more reading/research, and I now find myself supporting the view that the Haas "Lolas" should be considered as distinct from the Lola Cars "Lolas". So I think (for the Haas Lolas) we should link "Lola" to Haas Lola and remove the THL1 and THL2 from {{Lola}}, Category:Lola Formula One cars and the results table in Lola Cars. FWIW, my previous position was influenced by a mistaken belief that Lola Cars had more of a connection with the Haas Lola cars than they did, including statements like the one in Lola Cars that "Broadley had some involvement with the car", which I now believe to be false.
