History
Worlds talk and records should be in worlds scection — Preceding unsigned comment added by Alinag14 (talk • contribs) 19:01, 20 March 2012 (UTC)


 * Actually, if it is a world championship, shouldn't it have an own article? Though, these seems to be a club competition rather than between nations. 85.217.37.100 (talk) 18:00, 27 November 2012 (UTC)

"This situation became one of the chief concerns of gym owners. These inconsistencies caused coaches to keep their routines in a constant state of flux, detracting from time that should be utilized to develop skills and provide personal attention to their athletes. More importantly, because the various companies were constantly vying for the competitive edge, safety standards were becoming more and more lax. In some cases, unqualified coaches and inexperienced squads were attempting dangerous stunts as a result of these "expanded" sets of rules.[1]"  I have removed it multiple times but this entire sentence is full of opinion. just because it is cited doesn't make it a fact. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Anon51535 (talk • contribs) 19:28, 30 September 2020 (UTC)

Minituae
There's been a rush of anons changing minor details. I have no idea if these are corrections or vandalism; it'd be useful if someone who's interested in this stuff could take a look.

However, I have a more radical proposal - take out the wall of results. Those are available at the organisation's own Website, and they're hardly necessary for an encyclopaedia entry. Pinkbeast (talk) 14:16, 6 May 2015 (UTC)

Teams and countries
Isn't it a bit odd to list countries, except for American teams where we just list states?

Yes; but I think it is actually sensible for a sport so utterly dominated by American teams. (NB, I am not American) Pinkbeast (talk) 11:21, 21 July 2015 (UTC)
 * Um... did you just ask and answer your own question? Primefac (talk) 11:31, 21 July 2015 (UTC)


 * Yes, anticipating it being asked by someone else. Pinkbeast (talk) 18:50, 23 July 2015 (UTC)

Flagspam
Per WP:SPORTFLAG, the flags of the teams would seem to be a valid use of the icons. It makes it easier to visually see that Americans have won the majority of medals, and also when a non-US team has won something. I do realise that they should be smaller, and I will take care of that in due time (using flag instead of a ). I'm not overly convinced that they should all be removed, but I am open to discussion. Primefac (talk) 11:31, 21 July 2015 (UTC)


 * I disagree with your reading of the MOS; as I interpret it, flags are only used when a team represents that nation as a whole. That is clearly not true for any of the American teams and probably not true for many of the non-American teams (and we know it is not true for the Canadian and Chinese teams where more than one team of that nationality appears).


 * Mind you, I take your point that it does make the overwhelming number of American medals clear. It's a simple matter of Perl to templatify them; I'll do that now and see how it looks. Pinkbeast (talk) 11:36, 21 July 2015 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure if your opinion has changed, but to me it definitely looks a ton better with the icons. Primefac (talk) 12:12, 21 July 2015 (UTC)
 * Not a great deal, but I don't care enough to argue that it should be changed if you prefer it this way, so let's leave it be. As mentioned yesterday, the MOS rule is universally ignored anyway. Pinkbeast (talk) 12:17, 21 July 2015 (UTC)

World Cheerleading Championships
This article where the wall of results went has been deleted G7. I'm confused. Pinkbeast (talk) 18:50, 23 July 2015 (UTC)
 * Wall of results was biased, incorrect, and had almost no basis in reality. Quite frankly, I don't know if those specific competitions even exist; I was only able to verify a handful of results, and other findings were blatantly incorrect. The WCC is not what was presented in those tables, and so I had the page deleted. The tables that were removed/forked are still in the edit history of this page, so the information isn't lost completely (should you want to make your own stab at a fork).

 * Well, I wanted to remove it anyway, so, good. Pinkbeast (talk) 13:45, 24 July 2015 (UTC)
