Talk:Mountains classification in the Tour de France

Untitled
How come all the other jerseys are in french and this on is in English? Is it because it is harder to pronounce? Because the announcers don't call it that? That last possible reason could be true of the green and white jerseys as well...Nick 23:38, 31 July 2006 (UTC)


 * The English-language Wikipedia page should use the English name of the jersey. Dricherby (talk) 17:53, 26 October 2008 (UTC)

2008 winner
The 2008 Tour de France page and the Tour de France website both quote Bernhard Kohl as having won the polka dot jersey. Although the former and the Bernhard Kohl page both say that he might be disqualified because of doping, this doesn't seem to have happened yet. It seems best not to anticipate and keep Kohl as the winner on this page unless the race result is officially changed. Dricherby (talk) 17:51, 26 October 2008 (UTC)
 * He should absolutely still be listed on the page, but a ref note may (I'm not saying it's for the best, or not) be placed next to his name such as appears on 2008 Tour de France and Carlos Sastre (who stands to be awarded the jersey should Kohl's results be vacated).

Reverse Chronology
In keeping with the equivalent Green jersey page, I think that the winners should be presented with the most recent first: in the category (2008, soon to be 2009 and work backwards) and then the categories themselves so that KoM in its current form precedes the meilleur grimpeur.

2011 rule changes
this article is inaccurate since there are different rules in 2011 — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tdrone (talk • contribs) 14:44, 23 June 2011 (UTC)
 * That's true. Fortunately, this is wikipedia, so you are free to update the article. --EdgeNavidad (Talk · Contribs) 18:06, 23 June 2011 (UTC)
