Ice hockey at the Olympic Games
In regards to the doping section, I'm considering switching to a table. Something like this:

If it's too obtrusive, it can be made collapsible (like this). However, the problem is that one would expect it to include all examples, rather than just the notable ones (I went through google news but I'm sure I'm missing some cases). -- Scorpion 0422  15:10, 22 March 2009 (UTC)


 * Yeah, I meant to move the nation row. I didn't think it was really necessary (but feel free to re-add it). I don't think there is anything major that could be added. Also, could you please link me to the bit in the MOS about collapsible tables? I haven't been able to find it. -- Scorpion 0422  20:40, 22 March 2009 (UTC)

 * In the above FLC, and others I have done recently, you asked if I would be expanding the main championship article, and I replied with yes. Well I completed the first championship article of many a while ago, and I just thought to show it to you, to show I'm a man of my word. It is the TNA X Division Championship. Hopefully you are pleased with it, and do not believe that the above list could have been included with-in it.-- Will C  07:32, 3 May 2009 (UTC)

New FL criteria discussion: Final phase
Hello, I think we've hammered out a good revised Featured List criteria here. If this passes, there will be quite a few FLs that could soon be delisted just because of 3b. With that in mind, I'd like to get comments and opinions from all FLC regulars and everyone else who has participated in the discussion before it's implemented.

Thank you for leaving comments at the List of TNA X Division Champions and List of TNA World Tag Team Champions FLCs. TNA X Division Champions passed and your comments helped to make that possible. You comments have also helped List of TNA World Tag Team Champions become a better article and made me more aware of problems with-in list articles.

 * What more is neeeded?
 * The Achivements column (see coaches list; it's not close to being finished); do you think it's necessary?
 * Thanks. The achievements column will be extended to all inductees when it's done. I'll remove the fair use pictures and find some third-party references. Dabomb87 (talk) 18:29, 13 April 2009 (UTC)

Serena Williams
Hello. As a significant contributor to this article during its recent drive towards WP:FAC, I'm just posting a quick reminder to say, firstly, great work and, secondly, please continue with the great work. We're pretty close to a nomination and further help, particularly with citations on playing style, may just help clinch it. All the best. The Rambling Man (talk) 22:18, 2 May 2009 (UTC)

spelling out numbers
I agree entirely: to me, "five cats and 32 dogs" is just dandy. That advice has been in MOSNUM since pussy was a kitten. Just as well it's cast in watery terms, with the fingerprints of Anderson's recent tampering; it's one of the few I don't mind.

I'll check out the nomination now. Ta. Tony  (talk)  12:31, 3 May 2009 (UTC)

Tiger Woods has been nominated for a good article reassessment. Articles are typically reviewed for one week. Please leave your comments and help us to return the article to good article quality.

Reviewers' concerns are here.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/WP:CHICAGO/WP:LOTM) 14:20, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Thanks for your efforts on this. I am following along and am pleased at the progress.  I will impose no deadline on continued progress toward resolving the issues of the GAR.  Don't worry about the one week deadline.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/WP:CHICAGO/WP:LOTM) 03:21, 17 May 2009 (UTC)
 * You have gotten this down to six paragraphs without citation. However, it has been a week since you have done any work on the article.  It is very close to the proper quality level to keep.  Are you finished with your revisions?--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/WP:CHICAGO/WP:LOTM) 16:16, 1 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Although there is no official rule, generally, the quality level necessary to keep a GA rating is lower than the contemporary quality level required for promotion to GA. Although this might need some further work if it were a GAC, I am satisfied that rounding out the refs is good enough to keep it at GA for now.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/WP:CHICAGO/WP:LOTM) 17:56, 1 June 2009 (UTC)

Hi. I noticed you a while back reviewed one of the other 1995 Grand Prix article I've been working on - the 1995 Pacific GP article.

Jackie Robinson FAC
Would you mind returning to the article to see if the rationales for the fair use images are now up to snuff? The nominator has kept all five of the images, and only under repeated pressure has he made an effort to substantively improve their rationales. I'm afraid he's pissed me off sufficiently that I've had to recuse myself from dealing with the FAC anymore. As the reviewer who originally raised the problem, your view of the rationales' current quality would be very valuable. DocKino (talk) 20:12, 29 May 2009 (UTC)

mea culpa
Hi,

I'm here to apologize if I insulted you, hurt your feelings or offended you a while back .. an auto racing FAC, IIRC. I had been dealing with vast reservoirs of bitterness toward Wikipedia that had me dealing with successive bouts of burnout. Fortunately, I really think I've turned a corner... I still think the writing in the car FAC sucked horribly. I'm not saying that to salvage my pride/cover my butt; I really, sincerely think it sucked & was not FA-worthy per 1a. But I s'pose I could have been a bit more tactful in my presentation. :-) Ling.Nut (talk) 02:47, 30 May 2009 (UTC)

Hi there, I was wondering if you have had the chance to see my replies and work following your comments on the FAC page. If so, are you satisfied? And are you able to take a stance on the article? The FA review's been filibustering for a while now. Rafablu88 (talk) 16:01, 1 June 2009 (UTC)

All your concerns have been addressed at the above FLC. You've heard that many times before, good format for a sentence, don't fix something that doesn't need fixing is what I think. Thank you for your comments they have been very helpful! Also if you are up to it, I just thought to bring it to your attention now. I nominated another article for FAC and if you don't mind, could you leave some comments for it at its FAC? Only if you want to, I don't want to impose. It is the TNA X Division Championship and its FAC nomination is located here.-- Will C  15:24, 12 June 2009 (UTC)


 * Okay, take your time. If you want to review it, then you can. If you don't feel like it, then don't worry about it. I'm in no rush. I don't expect the X Title to pass anyway for some reason, considering it is the first championship article that has been nominated for FAC. Hopefully I'll get lucky.-- Will C  15:00, 13 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Thank you very much for the comments. All are helpful. I'm not a very good writer as you can see, so sorry about the problems. Thank you again for the comments. There is a discussion going on about a sourcing problem on the article's talk page. If you have time, could you be apart of it? The more opinions, the better.-- Will C  03:12, 14 June 2009 (UTC)
