Talk:Scott Dixon/Archive 1

Image
Does anyone have a better photo for the infobox? This one seems a little small. Possibly one that shows him only? The article isn't on his wife. Matt (talk) 08:55, 28 May 2008 (UTC)
 * I've cropped the extraneous background from the image, and softened the remaining background, to concentrate on the couple. If someone comes along with a pic of Dixon alone, then this one will have to do. Kaiwhakahaere (talk) 23:24, 9 August 2008 (UTC)


 * I uploaded a brand new photo from just yesterday. I feel it is a good picture that focuses strictly on Dixon.  OmahaMH (talk) 15:49, 2 September 2013 (UTC)

Biography Wording
This biography seems biased and uses peacock words. Let's try and fix it up. --D-Day (talk) 12:33, 31 May 2008 (UTC)

Dixon has 50 wins in IRL
Some people have been reverting the number of Dixon's IRL wins from 50 to 49. He has won 50, as was widely reported in the media after his win at Gateway a few days ago, his fourth 2020 win. Here are some of the reports. Moriori (talk) 01:37, 3 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Scott Dixon Earns 50th Career IndyCar Series Win at Gateway
 * Dixon, who started third, drove the No. 9 PNC Bank Chip Ganassi Racing Honda to his 50th career win
 * Scott Dixon collects 50th IndyCar race win
 * driver Scott Dixon extends IndyCar Series lead with 50th career victory
 * Scott Dixon Gateway victory is 50th of his IndyCar career
 * This article already has multiple issues, perhaps we should start citing these statistics in the article? FozzieHey (talk) 09:00, 3 September 2020 (UTC)

Maybe the image here might comvince the people changing the 50 back to 49. Moriori (talk) 20:28, 27 October 2020 (UTC)

50 wins includes his 1 win in Champ Car and 49 wins in IRL/Indycar. 49 is the correct number of Indycar wins. 49+1=50. Please stop changing it back to the incorrect number of 49. If need be please manually count his victories in Indycar rather than changing it back to the incorrect number of 50.
