Talk:Miles Chamley-Watson

Tone

There are quite a few parts of this article that read like promotionary material - not encyclopedic at all.80.217.2.17 (talk) 11:24, 11 August 2013 (UTC)

Indeed. I've tried to cut some blatant puffery out, but the article still lacks a formal encyclopedic tone. Mz7 (talk) 05:20, 6 July 2014 (UTC)

Notability of collegiate fencing

I'm going to rewrite the article, but I have a question concerning the collegiate results. I would personally dismiss them all as not notable and focus on international results, but I'm from Europe and know nothing about collegiate sports. Jastrow (Λέγετε) 14:49, 26 February 2015 (UTC)

Hi, in the US, college sports are governed by the NCAA and are a pretty big deal. There are a number of pages on Wikipedia dedicated to collegiate fencing in the US, it's taken fairly seriously. I'd vote in favor of keeping them. Yoman82 (talk) 02:35, 27 February 2015 (UTC)

Thanks for the answer. I don't usually mention national results on fencers' biographies, hence my question. I will add more about Chamley-Watson's international career and keep the collegiate results. Jastrow (Λέγετε) 17:32, 27 February 2015 (UTC)

HS sports

so... The Knox School didn't have a fencing program when Miles was there. He fenced at a private club in NYC at that time. (I was a teacher at that school during his tenure.) Also, the numbers don't work at all--he was not nine years old when he entered our high school ca. 2006.

I know that my attestation carries no weight, but given that there's already a [citation needed] on it, maybe it can go or be trimmed back? Nitsua60 (talk) 18:51, 8 July 2016 (UTC)
