Talk:Novak Djokovic

Semi-protected edit request on 28 March 2024
There are several factual errors in the fifth paragraph of "Coaching and personal team" sub-section of the "player profile" section. First, Djokovic didn’t meet Edoardo Artaldi until 2009, when he signed a clothing deal with Sergio Tacchini. Second, he didn’t hire Artaldi as part of his personal team until 2011-12,

Neither source cited in this paragraph (notes 575 & 576) is reliable. Ideally, sources would be the original reporting or interviews, such as the below.

1) Confirmation of the Tacchini deal in Nov. 2009: https://www.cnbc.com/id/47519672

2) Interview with Artaldi: "When Djokovic moved on from his sponsorship deal, he and Artaldi kept working together, and Artaldi left the Italian clothing brand to be Djokovic's manager." https://www.sbs.com.au/language/italian/en/podcast-episode/meet-edoardo-artaldi-the-man-behind-novak-djokovics-soaring-success/94vgpzjkg

3) Interview with team members (including details of Artaldi’s hiring): https://sport360.com/article/tennis/international-tennis/165242/inside-story-how-team-djokovic-keep-the-world-no-1-at-the-top-of-the-tennis-world

Paragraph 12 also includes the mistake that Artaldi " had been with him since 2008" and again cites unreliable sources. The best source for the "new chaptee" comment is the journalist who did the interview: https://twitter.com/carole_bouchard/status/1719770286176772531 A good source for further comments about late 2023 changes to his team: https://www.tennismajors.com/atp/djokovic-confirms-plans-to-launch-new-venture-in-australia-that-brand-will-consist-of-a-lot-of-wellness-products-so-i-am-looking-forward-to-that-729162.html

I’ll return later to put this edit request in the proper format. 73.132.150.115 (talk) 10:46, 28 March 2024 (UTC)

Djokovic has just won Laureus sportsman of the year award for 2023. 142.181.66.12 (talk) 23:27, 22 April 2024 (UTC)
 * ✅ (assuming you meant 2024). There is already a citation about this in the Professional awards section, so I updated the number and years he won the award in the lead. Jamedeus (talk) 23:38, 22 April 2024 (UTC)

AI Picture
Hey folks I don't normally do things like this on Wikipedia & so forgive me if I don't know protocol, but wanted to say there's a photo(?) in this article that I'm fairly sure is AI generated. If it's not, there seems to be a very strange filter on it. You'll find it under Tennis Career -> 2024 season. It's captioned "Djokovic at the 2024 French Open." If you zoom in you'll see it doesn't look quite right. I reverse image searched it and it seems like it only exists on various pages sourced to this Wikipedia article. 67.86.206.135 (talk) 03:24, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
 * It does look a bit off to me but the place to bring that up is at Wikimedia Commons where it was uploaded and resides. Fyunck(click) (talk) 04:13, 8 July 2024 (UTC)

Too long
The article at 21,000 words readable prose size, is 6,000 words too long, per WP:AS. I'd split out into Career of Novak Djokovic as a solution, similar to Messi, Ronaldo, Federer, Rafael Nadal. What else do people think we should do? Tom B (talk) 09:57, 13 July 2024 (UTC)
 * Nothing needs to be split out at all. It's simply way too wordy and detailed, just like Serena Williams article. Even the lead is ridiculous. Less detail and more high points probably chops it down by 1/3. Fyunck(click) (talk) 16:43, 13 July 2024 (UTC)
