Talk:Rick Suhr

IP: 116.213.104.110 Editing
Who ever this person is (registered ip comes back to an Asia Pacific Network Information Centre IP) keeps removing any reference to the remarks the coach made in the 2008 Olympics. Perhaps they want it to go away, but it did happen and there are sources to site, therefore perfectly reasonable to put in a wiki article. Can the page be restricted to only logged in people editting it? 70.188.139.30 (talk) 01:10, 22 August 2008 (UTC)


 * I'm an admin here on Wikipedia, and I can tell you that article does not need semi-protection. Since I'm involved in the content on this article, I wouldn't be the one to do it anyways. The section that is removed does not have any citations. If the section is to be re-added, it should reflect the commentary in and cite the source. ~MDD4696 02:31, 23 August 2008 (UTC)


 * OK, discussion is good, I guess that is why I brought it up originally. The section had been vetted by several other logged in users and the reverting by that IP (twice) without any comment seemed rude/unnecessary to me.  As for citations, reviewing the history, I saw it had a reference, that someone else had put in, and was adequate.  And considering I saw the story on several different outlets, thought it was relevant to an article about the coach.  I'll admit that 'controversy' may have been a bad title.  If someone/you wanted to add to it, siting the source you gave explaining Jen's take on it, I find that more than fair. 70.188.139.30 (talk) 02:05, 25 August 2008 (UTC)


 * I thought the reference in the Controversy section to being a transcript from NBC Sports was sufficient since it doesn't take much searching to confirm the vericity of the transcribed statements. A direct link to the actual source would have been better.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mwclark4453 (talk • contribs) 12:39, 4 September 2008 (UTC)


 * Drawing conclusions from a transcript is original research, which is not permitted on Wikipedia. We need another source which analyzes the transcript and provides commentary. ~MDD4696 00:34, 5 September 2008 (UTC)


 * What conclusion was drawn from the transcript? --Michael (talk) 23:28, 8 September 2008 (UTC)


 * There were actually two parts of the transcript in question. One was the dialogue between Rick Suhr and Jenn.  The other part, which analyzes this dialogue, was provided by Tom Hammond and Dwight Stone.  Hammond and Stone provide the commentary and analyze the transcript (coach's remarks).  This seems to be more than original research, and seems to represent what Mdd4696 states is needed: the second source which "analyzes the transcript and provides commentary."  Hammond and Stone were, indeed, the commentators. Missyagogo (talk) 02:23, 8 September 2008 (UTC)
