No "updates from the future" on Wikipedia
Hello. Please do not enter future dates on Wikipedia for events that have not happend yet. Wikipedia is not a crystal ball. There is no 12 June ranking update on the WTA yet (see your recent edit). You can only update the rankings when the official update actually happens. Never post rankings ahead of time. Besides, when the ranking does not change, there is no need to change the date every week. Thanks.&mdash;J. M. (talk) 17:19, 10 June 2017 (UTC)


 * Then remove the current ranking altogether, "current" means as of the last rankings published. To my knowledge there has been weeks and weeks of rankings since January 30th, which then in fact means her current ranking should be listed as #3 (May 29, 2017) - but do what you will. While you're at it, you might as well go to Jelena Ostapenko's and Simona Halep's pages and fix their current rankings too. Since there is no ranking on June 10th (Halep), and Jelena was last ranked on May 29th at 47. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.138.15.159 (talk • contribs)


 * The "current" ranking applies to the ranking itself. When the current ranking was first achieved on 30 January, then the date means "the current ranking was achieved on January 30 and it hasn't changed since then". It is still the current ranking. We don't change the dates every week on Wikipedia when the ranking is the same. That would be a lot of useless work (and plenty of outdated articles). We only change it when the ranking actually changes. And only official updates are allowed&mdash;and only after they happen (on Monday). No projected rankings, no "Saturday rankings", and no future dates. See WikiProject Tennis for more details.&mdash;J. M. (talk) 20:43, 10 June 2017 (UTC)
