Did You Know
A fact from this article appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the "Did you know?" column on February 1, 2022.
The text of the entry was: Did you know ... that when a reporter asked for updates on Jayson Werth's wrist injury, his manager at the time responded "Who?"

Removing Adam Werth

edit

Jayson Werth's bio used to mention a brother "Adam Werth" who plays soccer at Syracuse University. Since it was in the present tense, I wondered if it were still true. There is no mention of anybody named Werth on any soccer roster for SU since 2001. Additionally, official university bios for Jayson's two sisters mention only Jayson and his two sisters. These citations have been added after the mentions of each sister.

Google suggests that there is an Adam Werth who played soccer for SUNY Buffalo around 2000, but there's no evidence that he's related to Jayson.

I've removed the mention of Adam. -- Dharris (talk) 16:16, 18 April 2013 (UTC)Reply

Right vs Left Rield

edit

Werth has so far played 462 games in RF for the Washington Nationals. Fewer than 200 in Left over the past few seasons. While he has been moved there permanently, its a mis-characterization of his career with the Nationals to describe him as having "mainly played left field for the Nationals." — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.31.84.14 (talk) 23:05, 7 August 2016 (UTC)Reply

  •   Recently promoted good article, definitely long enough. Copyvio check produces some double-digit matches, but these happen to be his season statistics which can't really be written any other way. Original hook is definitely true according to the source but - and this might just be my opinion - it makes more sense if you mention this was because he had been out for a long time. ALT1 is fine if DYK admins are OK with combining two different elements together - I assume GF on Baltimore Sun source which I'm locked out of. ALT2 keeps it simple which I like the best, but again that's my personal choice. Unknown Temptation (talk) 20:25, 16 January 2022 (UTC)Reply
