Talk:Sloane Stephens

Not a news ticker
Please, guys, put on the brake. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not a news ticker. You don't win a price when you're the first to update an article. Hasty, sloppy edits get you as much love as shouting "First!" on Youtube. We don't need a new article version for every single character that you change. All that achieves is a messy history. If you feel like you don't have the time to check for things like a paragraph's temporal consistency, at the very least make sure to check your spelling of two-character words before you save your edit. We strive for quality around here, not speed. Thanks. --91.89.229.50 (talk) 05:23, 23 January 2013 (UTC)
 * plus I just had to correct a bunch on wikipedia non-no's like no scoring allowed in prose, and updating charts before the player is done with the tournament. No rush is needed here. Fyunck(click) (talk) 05:40, 23 January 2013 (UTC)

Conventions regarding tennis scores
The convention for stating tennis scores is that the winner's scores are stated first, regardless whether the subject of discussion is the winner or the loser. For example, Stephens just defeated Venus Williams 6-1, 0-6, 7-5. Likewise, Williams lost to Stephens, 6-1, 0-6, 7-5. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tennis_scoring_system "The score of a complete match may be given simply by sets won, or with the scores of each set given separately. In either case, the match winner's score is stated first." 108.70.151.16 (talk) 02:34, 8 September 2017 (UTC)
 * The person whose article it is, we state their score first. In Williams article, she lost 1–6, 6–0, 5–7. Fyunck(click) (talk) 04:45, 8 September 2017 (UTC)

Pronunciation
I read Stephens but I hear people say Stevens. Which one is correct? --2003:DE:23DD:2378:FC12:7043:1FD3:8608 (talk) 20:53, 10 September 2017 (UTC)
 * They are pronounced the same... as Stevens. Fyunck(click) (talk) 21:27, 10 September 2017 (UTC)
