Not in refs?[edit]

An editor re-added ", and the most successful sprint cyclist in the competitions's history" with refs - but I do not see the refs as stating that. --2603:7000:2143:8500:8C39:13B2:D692:ACA3 (talk) 20:01, 23 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

As per UEC European Track Championships – Men's sprint you can see Dmitriev has the most medals, would you prefer I cite every results table in the text? Paulpat99 (talk) 20:27, 23 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I would prefer that you have a statement that is supported by an RS. Such as "... through date x, he had won more gold medals [or, alternatively, more medals] than ...]. In addition to the source not saying what the text says, what does "most successful" even mean? Most medals? Most gold medals? Best time? Most individual medals? Also, it has to be time-specific. WP is meant to be read in the future. The RS source should be delineating the statement, as through the date of the RS report. This statement is editor commentary, but not properly sourced to an RS news article, for example, saying what I wrote just above. Plus, of course, a wp article is never, ever an RS source, in itself. 2603:7000:2143:8500:8C39:13B2:D692:ACA3 (talk) 21:18, 23 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
