Why removed he is the greatest of all time edit

MC is one of the greatest drivers of all time so why did you remove that it just seems so weird. 86.128.56.73 (talk) 18:05, 20 July 2022 (UTC)Reply

I assume is because thats not fully neutral — Preceding unsigned comment added by Vifvuv (talkcontribs) 16:59, 26 August 2022 (UTC)Reply
The sentence was removed following this discussion. It does not seem to be neutral, although Schumacher is still one of the greatest drivers of all time by any measure (wins (dry/rain), championships, longevity, dominance over teammates, et cetera).

Thats a strange discussion, is Kasparov greatest chess player in all time? Perhaps but while he still competes he is simply the best chess player currently. :) And also I don't understand that "family" idea to stop his career, maybe because I play chess also. :)--Polsci2 (talk) 17:46, 21 February 2023 (UTC)Reply

Split 'Racing record' section edit

I just made an article entitled List of career achievements by Michael Schumacher.

Is it possible to separate the Racing record section from the Schumacher article for inclusion in the article above? Thank you. F1fans (talk) 11:27, 27 July 2022 (UTC)Reply

Featured Article Nomination edit

I was wondering if you guys are ok with a nomination of this article as a featured article. The article fits the criteria, and is not a vague subject. Vifvuv (talk) 17:01, 26 August 2022 (UTC)Reply

The article wouldn't pass the FA criteria in its current form. It lacks (scholarly) references and several sources used are not of FA quality (such as "Snow Industry News" and "cmhelmets"). Some information is also missing (what was his driving style like, what was his impact on the sport, how was he received/regarded in the media/by other drivers?).

Image change edit

I thought it would be nice to have an image of Schumacher in racing overalls rather the the generic previous image . Thanks to Ryosuke Yage and Danyele for this image--MKL123 (talk) 18:38, 5 January 2023 (UTC)Reply
