Talk:Thorsten Hohmann

Contradiction and gibberish
Q: The article claims that both Hohmann and Reyes won the 1996 IPT Championship, and I am not certain that the wikilink to it in Hohmann's case is correct (it goes to the North American championship, not the world one. The original text said "World" in the prose but wikilinked to "North American", so the current text is just my guess, and an attempt to make it not contradictory.) Also, there is a sentence, "Thorsten made history by being the first pool player to win a major International Pool Tour event.", which does not actually make any sense. Either words ("German?") are missing, or it's just nonsense, since being the first to win a new event does "make history", and of course the first person to win a pool tournament would be a pool player. &mdash; SMcCandlish &#91;talk&#93; &#91;contrib&#93; ツ 13:11, 6 February 2007 (UTC)


 * A: The article claims that they won these IPT titles in 2006 not in 1996. There is no problem here because there were several IPT events named as Championships (see here ). Straight pool championship that Hohmann won in the same year had no any relationships with IPT, it's a different tournament. Partially i can explain sentence "Thorsten made history by being the first pool player to win a major International Pool Tour event.", indeed there were several others IPT event before this one (see link above again), but this was the fist with such big number of participants and prize money, so it wasn't fist IPT event but the biggest at that moment. 81.9.124.199 21:49, 1 March 2007 (UTC)


 * I'll take your word for it. Most of this stuff is unsourced anyway, so as the article becomes better sourced, the details will get clarified. &mdash;  SMcCandlish &#91;talk&#93; &#91;contrib&#93; ツ 01:14, 13 April 2007 (UTC)

 * No need to do that, and I see it is back. It should just be replaced by something less washed-out by flash some time in the future when we have a better picture. —  SMcCandlish  &#91;talk&#93; &#91;cont&#93;  ‹(-¿-)› 00:30, 30 November 2007 (UTC)

Why is Hohmann in the "American Pool Player" category?
Though I am well aware that Thorsten Hohmann competes in many pool tournaments in the United States, he is a German pool player, I had thought, and not an American. Today, he resides, subject to check, in New York City, but he is not an American citizen. Should he still remain in this category or be placed in a German Pool Player category? Please advise.

 * I think he was in both. I have seen discussions of this sort of thing elsewhere, and side with the argument that unless he obtains citizenship he shouldn't be listed as American, even if he is a permanent resident. —  SMcCandlish  &#91;talk&#93; &#91;cont&#93;  ‹(-¿-)› 00:30, 30 November 2007 (UTC)
