Update
In view your input at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Boxing I have made a proposal at Wikipedia talk:Notability (sports). Since you gave input at the project page, then I thought I would let you know about the general page. RonSigPi (talk) 00:57, 30 December 2015 (UTC)

Re: Juho Tolppola
Ah nice, something Finnish-related for me to look at for a change! No problem, I'll give it the once-over with some refs. Do you want me to create his pro record as well? I find those rather fun to do. Mac Dreamstate (talk) 17:26, 4 January 2016 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for January 29
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Eduardo García (boxer), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page The Ring. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Boxing proposal
Do you think you are ready for your boxing proposal? Out of curiosity, why for A4 did you drop the Intercontinental, International, Regional or Continental titles? Seems like criterion 1 of A3 and criteria 2-4 of A4 is the best bet. Anyways, wanted to know if you were going to formally propose soon so a vote can take place.

 * Hello my friend, I am in no rush to push it forward to the formal proposal stage. I think we should give it another two weeks, that way everyone that has an interest in the issue can have a chance to have their say.
 * I deleted the Intercontinental, International, Regional and Continental titles because some are relatively spurious and if they are meaningful then the sanctioning body of that title will give them a Top 15 ranking and they will gain automatic notability that way.
 * The only thing we have to all agree on is how we word a criteria to include other notable titles such as the EBU and Commonwealth etc but I think that we could omit those as well because if they really are notable titles then the winner of one should get a Top 15 rankings with someone. --Donniediamond (talk) 10:30, 8 February 2016 (UTC)
