Re: Opinions on the success of the revival of the Olympic Games in 1859, 1870, 1875
Opinions about the success or a failure of any revival have no place in an encyclopaedia. Besides how can anybody consider the Olympic Games that were held in Athens in 1859, and 1870 as a failure.

Firstly, the 1859 Olympic Games was the first modern international Olympic Games. It had Greek athletes. It had athletes from the Ottoman Empire. It had athletic events comparable to those held in ancient times. It had medals. It had Olympians. It was a success.

Secondly, the 1870 Olympic Games was the first modern international Olympic Games to be held in a stadium. The only country in the world to have an athletics stadium in the 19th Century was Greece. I'll say that again for the hard of hearing. The only country in the world to have a bonafide, refurbished ancient Olympic Games stadium in the 19th Century was Greece. Greece was the first country in the world to host a bonafide Olympic Games in a stadium in the 19th Century. And guess what? Greece was also the second and the third country in the world to host a bonafide Olympic Games in a stadium.

What is even more interesting is that there was no stadium at the Paris 1900 side-show that was called an Olympic Games. To be be perfectly honest, if the International Olympic Committee did not recognise them as Olympic Games they would not be worthy of the name by anybody elses standards.

Then ofcourse they build a temporary stadium for St Louis in 1904.

And guess what? The first Olympic Games to have a proper bonafide Olympic stadium in the 20th Century once again was Greece at Athens in 1906.

Is that so hard to accept. Does it hurt the pride of the rest of the world to accept that. That small country called Greece had the first modern international Olympic Games and it had the first bonafide purpose-built Olympic stadium.

Please elaborate what success or failure means when you use those words. When David C. Young uses them he is referring to the fact that the Olympiad was not maintained. He is not saying that the Games themselves were not a success. Don't take quotations out of context. Don't quote opinions. Surely, that is common sense.

Also, take a closer look at this: 1859, 1870, 1875, 1896, 1906, 2004

Years in which the Olympic Games were hosted in Athens. Does that make every other city that has hosted the Olympic Games a failure?

Evangelos Zappas firmly planted the foundations, the roots, of the modern Olympic Games and those that say otherwise are in denial. That's not an opinion. That is a fact. Nipsonanomhmata 20:42, 1 July 2007 (UTC)


 * "Fully revived" means nothing. It is an opinion. Nipsonanomhmata 00:12, 9 July 2007 (UTC)


 * Yeah, it's an opinion. One might even say a point of view.  In fact, it represents a significant point of view that has been published in *numerous* reliable source.  Which is exactly what we want to include in our articles.  Go read Neutral point of view again.  Your own personal views on what it means to have fully revived the Olympics don't dictate how the rest of the world understands it.


 * And, yes, with this edit, you did screw up the grammar. You deleted part of a sentence, leaving the fragment "White City Stadium, (originally know as The Great Stadium) built in White City, London, England, for the 1908 Summer Olympics." -- Jonel (Speak to me) 02:59, 9 July 2007 (UTC)


 * "Numerous reliable sources" repeating significantly incorrect points of view. Yes, that's par for the course. That's exactly what has been happening. Nipsonanomhmata 19:30, 28 July 2007 (UTC)

Good job
Nice work on Olympic Games, trying to incorporate that "new" material yet keeping the blatant POV overtones out of it. Andrwsc 21:59, 30 June 2007 (UTC)


 * Thanks. I'm trying hard to work with Nipsonanomhmata.  He does have some good points about Zappas not getting much credit for his Olympic revival efforts, but his preferred method of working (that is to say, blasting everyone who isn't Zappas with belittlements and ridicule) isn't much fun.  Trying to keep things to the generally-accepted consensus (which even Young, Nipsonanomhmata's favorite author, agrees with) is tough. -- Jonel (Speak to me) 22:12, 30 June 2007 (UTC)


 * Generally-accepted consensus on opinions means nothing. Only facts count. History is not made by the people who talk about it. History is made by the people who do it. Zappas spent a fortune making the revival of the Olympic Games happen. Brookes sent a trophy to the 1859 Games in Athens and listed one of the international participants on the honor roll of the Wenlock Olympian Society. What did Baron Pierre de Coubertin pay for? Some vacations to England and to Greece. Some stationery and some postage stamps. Zappas paid for the refurbishment of the Panathenian stadium. He bought all the land that the stadium stood on and all the surrounding land. Zappas paid for the building of the first purpose-built indoor Olympic arena. Give credit to Brookes as a Founder of the Modern Olympic Movement for 1866. But let's not pussy-foot. Zappas made the first modern international Olympic Games happen. Zappas made it happen in 1859, 1870, and 1875 with a solid foundation for the future and with a stadium that would last for thousands of years. Dr Brookes made things happen in 1866. But there is no legacy stadium from Brookes' efforts. Coubertin never paid for a stadium and the stadiums that the IOC has had built for them, by others, will never last as long as the Panathenian stadium.


 * What I have contributed has got nothing to do with POV. It's all about the doers and the talkers. Nipsonanomhmata 19:15, 3 July 2007 (UTC)


 * We aim to present a Neutral point of view here. Generally-accepted consensus on the importance of historical details does matter.  You continually push the point of view that Zappas was the be-all and end-all of reviving the Olympic Games, and that Brookes and De Coubertin are unimportant.  Your view is out of step with basically every Olympic historian who has ever published anything, including Young, whom you are so fond of.  Zappas should be recognized, yes, and we do recognize his efforts.  But you constantly try to unbalance every article you touch, and include snide attacks (which do, yes, represent your point of view, rather than "facts") on everyone who isn't Zappas. -- Jonel (Speak to me) 19:42, 3 July 2007 (UTC)


 * That's not true. Brookes was important (even though the IOC formally doesn't say so). He was the founder of the modern Olympic Movement and preceded Coubertin in this role since Coubertin used many of Brookes ideas without giving him credit. Coubertin was important because he was the founder of the International Olympic Committee. But Coubertin is not as important as the IOC makes him out to be (they stretch the truth at the IOC). The IOC claims that Coubertin was the founder of the modern Olympic Games, they also claim he was the founder of the modern Olympic Movement. Meanwhile, the Wenlock Olympian Society (WOS) claims that Brookes was the founder of the modern Olympic Games. The WOS used to claim that he was the founder of the Olympic Games (isn't that ludicrous?).


 * No. I am not out of step with David C. Young. I agree with all the facts that he has published and to be perfectly honest absolutely nobody else has done the indepth research that he has done and I respect him deeply for that. But I don't have to agree with all of his opinions because opinions are not facts. History should be based on facts and not opinions. Except by those who try to manipulate history. For example, to take Young's opinions and quote them out of context is a manipulation of history.


 * My view is purely based on the facts. Opinions are worth nothing unless there are no facts [opinion]. What actually happened is what counts. Events make history. Opinions are usually there to misrepresent history. Also there are too many people who quote opinions that are not based on facts. Too many people repeat what they hear and do not research the source or even consider why that was said in the first place.


 * You reinstated a secondary source that I deleted today. There is no original information on that page. The person that wrote that page has slightly adapted the information and the information is not accurate. i.e. the source is based on hearsay. Someone else did the original research and published it ... and this source has not even adapted what was in the original article ... they are likely to have adapted from another secondary article ... The source that was quoted is corrupt. It is not a useful source to quote or to recommend. All the other sources have original information.


 * You didn't like my "eat your heart out Baron Pierre" joke! He was born 1863, 1st Jan. Meanwhile, building works for the Olympic Games, including the refurbishment of the stadium, were planned back in the 1850s and the Greek government made them law in the 1860s. How the IOC has the arrogance to claim that the Baron founded the Olympic Games is beyond belief. Also, the Baron had his heart buried under a statue in Olympia. Ofcourse, everybody conveniently forgets that Zappas asked for his head to be buried at the Zappeion well before the Baron died. Nobody mentions that fact. Why? Is Zappas less important than the Baron? Zappas refurbished a stadium that was used for five Olympic Games: 1870, 1875, 1896, 1906, 2004. The IOC conveniently doesn't recognise three of those Games.


 * So what did Baron Pierre de Coubertin pay for when he founded the International Olympic Committee? He didn't pay for the building of any stadiums. Not even at Paris in 1900. Nipsonanomhmata 00:27, 5 July 2007 (UTC)

 * It is not that I have little faith in sourcing, but rather little faith in pseudo-sourcing. I could source the statement of analogy I made (Noam Chomsky, “Pirates and Emperors, Old and New: International Terrorism in the Real World,” South End Press, Cambridge Mass. rev.edition 2002 p.99 footnote 8) but I don't think it necessary, because an analogy of this kind does not need sourcing since the given, uncontrovertible facts speak for themselves. I.e. you do not need to, but may of course, source the obvious, put a link under 'is' and refer us to Parmenides, or 'fact' and refer us to the dictionary, as any academic knows. The Reeve quote was sourced, but was a misleading item in that page in so far as it was one of any number of subjective opinions immaterial to the article in question. Wiki cruisers should have spotted that before my intervention. In erasing both Reeve's exaggerated and strategically placed 'quote' I have also eliminated my counter-example. And I think the article's first paragraph gains in lucidity.

BLP Noticeboard
I've been trying to work with User:piledoggie for a while (who has had one of his/her anonymous usernames blocked for vandalizing my talk page), but that user really doesn't seem to understand WP:BLP. I've discussed this on the talk page of Church of Christ (Temple Lot), as well as on some of his/her various talk pages (that user has edited the Temple Lot article under 4 separate usernames, which complicates things), but I can't seem to get this user to understand what WP:BLP is about, evidenced by the fact that said user feels that they are following WP:BLP guidelines in removing my comments (which contain little or no biographical material at all, and certainly no names or references to names) from a talk page. I would have commented over at the Noticeboard, but the requests have already been archived. The Jade Knight 09:49, 3 August 2007 (UTC)

brackets
These are round brackets and these are square brackets [],  parentheses are {}. --Lucy-marie 10:15, 14 August 2007 (UTC)


 * The first are commonly known as parentheses. "Brackets" alone tends to refer to the second in many parts of the world.  I've never seen anyone anywhere refer to the third as "parentheses" before; they're curly brackets or braces.  "Parentheses" is, to almost everyone in the world, unambiguous and refers to round brackets.  "Brackets", on the other hand, is an ambiguous term which could mean any of the above or even <>. -- Jonel (Speak to me) 13:28, 14 August 2007 (UTC)

In English English which I use the word parentheses is not used at all except to describe {} I see that the cultural divide between the variations of english has struck again. FInally <> these are greater than and less than signs and I have personally never heard them referred to as brackets. I guess we shall just have to live with the difference.--Lucy-marie 19:42, 17 August 2007 (UTC)

Rowing at the 1920 Summer Olympics
Having patroled your new articles in Category:Rowing events at the 1920 Summer Olympics I'm wondering if it wasn't better to merge them all into one article as most of them seem fairly short due to limited amount of competitiors. Just a thought.EA210269 (talk) 03:57, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
 * The general idea from the Olympics WikiProject is that each event have its own page; reasons include a hope that eventually the event pages will get more information, avoidance of excessive detail on the more general page, and consistency of navigation. That being said, I'm not particularly attached to any method of display for the information. So if you want to be bold and merge them onto Rowing at the 1920 Summer Olympics, or ask at the WikiProject for more opinions, please do! -- Jonel (Speak to me) 16:37, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Thats fine, just wondering why its a separate page for each event. Your explanation is quite sufficent. Nice work, by the way. I like colorful tables and statistics with country flags in it! I use it a lot in some of my articles too.EA210269 (talk) 22:55, 26 April 2008 (UTC)

Bracket templates and their usage
Nice work on those, Jonel! Those results pages look great—simplicity and effectiveness of presentation. Good to see you back — Andrwsc (talk · contribs) 15:32, 9 May 2008 (UTC)


 * Thanks! I've gotta say, monkeying around with templates is so much more fun than studying for exams. I'm glad you like the results, though I didn't do much original work—I grabbed most of the coding from, with smatterings from other tournament brackets. I'd like to eventually be able to replace most of Category:Tournament bracket templates with a much smaller number of templates. I've got the byes down pretty well, and third-place matches for the brackets big enough to display them nicely (the 8-team bracket is probably going to have to be non-compact to do that). My next goal is probably to make the brackets capable of displaying seeds if desired, while seemlessly hiding them if not. Doing something with byes in rounds after the first might be useful for some of the early Olympic brackets too. -- Jonel (Speak to me) 16:00, 9 May 2008 (UTC)


 * Take a look at the code I added to Template:4TeamBracket over a year ago to make the seeds optional, if that helps. My approach was to allow the template user to write   (or omit the parameter altogether) to remove the little box, or write   to insert a blank box, allowing for combinations of seeded and unseeded entries.  I have long thought that that category of templates was in dire need of a simplification overhaul, so I would support you in that endeavour!  — Andrwsc (talk · contribs) 16:15, 9 May 2008 (UTC)


 * Testing:


 * Beautiful. Thanks for the pointer to that existing template; I was afraid I was going to have to reinvent the wheel there. Ok, so now the 4TeamBracket-Compact-NoSeeds-Byes is capable of showing seeds or not, and showing byes. It's too small for a third place option underneath the final; maybe I'll try one off to the right... -- Jonel (Speak to me) 17:02, 9 May 2008 (UTC)

2008 Olympic Template
As a leading editor at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Olympics, you should be aware that I think a rash template deletion decision is being made at Templates_for_deletion/Log/2008_August_18. I have attempted to created the sidebar template Template:Nations at the 2008 Summer Olympics to complement Template:NOCin2008SummerOlympics as a navigational aid for some of the larger countries. Although the links are the same it is not redundant because it greatly improves the experience for the reader who wants to quickly visit different countries. When I visit a page like United States at the 2008 Summer Olympics, I often want to jump to another page and I don't think I am the only reader who would like to do so. Currently, the reader has to scroll down for pages and pages in hopes that the proper template is at the bottom. It would help the reader if there were a sidebar navbox like the one I created. It is not uncommon for a sidebar to include only duplicate links of a template at the bottom (See Barack Obama, which has a sidebar template that includes only redundant links).--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/WP:CHICAGO/WP:LOTM) 13:21, 18 August 2008 (UTC)


 * Sorry Tony, but I agree with Parutakupiu on this one. Using the IOC codes makes it completely bewildering to the casual reader, and translating those codes into actual names is typically more inconvenient than going to the end of a page (pressing end or dragging the scroll bar to the end). That need for conversion is really what makes it less useful than the box on Barack Obama, rather than any redundancy. I'm not going to join the call for deletion, but I really don't think that this extra template is helpful enough to readers to justify putting it on even the long articles. -- Jonel (Speak to me) 18:40, 18 August 2008 (UTC)

The article speaks precisely that we use IOC country codes (for NOC's) and that we do not list each and every change of the IOC NOC code. HOL -> NED and simmilar cases.

What did you mean with your undoing of my editing.

Thnx

Imbris (talk) 23:36, 2 September 2008 (UTC)

No response. -- Imbris (talk) 23:44, 2 September 2008 (UTC)


 * You know perfectly well what I mean. Andrwsc has already explained it to you. We follow the codes as currently used in the IOC medal database. That database reflects changes such as HOL and NED being the same. We do not do the rearranging for them. Also, you probably could wait more than an entire 8 minutes before declaring "no response"; I do have other things I am working on as well. -- Jonel (Speak to me) 23:49, 2 September 2008 (UTC)

Re:Olympic Games (again)
Thank you for the heads up regarding the Olympic Games and Evangelos Zappas. I really want to bring the Olympic Games up to FA status and we all know that we need balanced and fair editors. I'll monitor them very closely. I also appreciate your comments. H1nkles (talk) 03:44, 16 September 2008 (UTC)
 * It appears to me from a look at the edit history of the Olympic Games page, that there is a debate going on with our friend, Nipsonanomhmata squarely in the middle, regarding how to term the predecessors to the first "official" Olympics. I've created a talking point on the discussion page for debate and asked editors to debate there rather than via edits.  I'll keep a close eye on it and the Zappas page.  Hopefully with the diligence of a couple of neutral editors we can maintain balance in these pages.  H1nkles (talk) 14:54, 16 September 2008 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Larry Sheahan
A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Larry Sheahan, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the  notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

 * I've got no objection. -- Jonel (Speak to me) 19:38, 2 October 2008 (UTC)

Spaces
Hi! For the seventh (!) time you have reverted my edit here: Russia at the 1912 Summer Olympics, so maybe it is time to explain why I have added the spaces. :) The first extra space was for a reason - don't crowd navboxes into references and the second space was also for a reason - according to WP:Stub "It is usually desirable to leave two blank lines between the first stub template and whatever precedes it." Kind regards Doma-w (talk) 22:39, 10 October 2008 (UTC)

Hi Jonel, I see it was you who created this template 3 years ago. Please can you consider deleting or changing it as unfortunately it currently renders badly in articles using template:CGBY. here's an example of bad rendering with the 'see also box' overlapping with the section line: List_of_colonial_governors_in_1695, thanks Tom B (talk) 19:55, 19 October 2008 (UTC)

Darwin Correa
Greetings! I've been going through Biographical pages with several incompatible dates of birth, and one of the entries on the list is Darwin Correa, an article which you started. While I was able to find some Olympics web pages confirming his results, I have been unable to find any source indicating the correct year of his birth. Is there any way you could help solve this enigma? Thanks, mate! --Cryptic C62 · Talk 00:45, 2 March 2009 (UTC)
 * My source was the Athens2004 website, now with the results archived at LA84. This PDF has the participants list for flatwater canoeing. Correa is at the 10th page of the PDF, with the date of birth given as 1977. I seem to have simply made an error in the category; I'll go fix that. Sorry for any confusion. -- Jonel (Speak to me) 00:58, 2 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Woot, thanks! +1 point in my contest. --Cryptic C62 · Talk 01:09, 2 March 2009 (UTC)

Calliopejen1 (talk) 12:36, 8 April 2009 (UTC)

Olympic announcements archive
Hey, Jonel. I saw you update the announcements template with a new featured list, removing older announcements as a consequence. You probably haven't noticed but this template has an archive for older items. This way, we can remove them from the main template to save space but we never lose them. Parutakupiu (talk) 15:53, 11 April 2009 (UTC)


 * I hadn't noticed the archive. I've added the February items to the archive, and have gone through the announcements template history to pick up the older stuff as well. Thanks for letting me know about that. -- Jonel (Speak to me) 16:01, 11 April 2009 (UTC)


 * Ha, you edit-conflicted me. :) Thanks for doing the "dirty work". Parutakupiu (talk) 16:03, 11 April 2009 (UTC)

I may be a glutton for punishment but I wanted to let you know that I've renominated the Olympic Games article for FA candidacy.

Recent Olympic Games work
I wanted to say thank you for your work on the Olympic Games article recently in response to critiques during the FAC. I've been besieged by real life and haven't been able to do much these last few days. If the article passes it will be because of your help and I thank you. H1nkles (talk) 19:00, 3 May 2009 (UTC)
 * You're certainly welcome; I'm glad to be of assistance (though I think you give me too much credit—I really haven't done that much). You've done great work with that article. It deserves to be a Featured Article, and I hope that it'll finally get there this time! -- Jonel (Speak to me) 20:39, 3 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Sometimes it's nice as an editor to have someone else to carry the load and take on some of the work, just to feel supported I guess. I feel like most of the suggestions are opinions on how to make the article better, which is fine but it would be nice to see them support the article once their suggestions have been implemented.  Thanks again.  H1nkles (talk) 16:43, 5 May 2009 (UTC)

Hi. Please see the structure of the World Cricket League at the official site for Division Seven here. Eight is correct. Andrew nixon (talk) 17:08, 13 May 2009 (UTC)

For your help...
Thanks! Glad to be of service. I'm still a bit bummed about Cycling at the 2008 Summer Olympics – Women's road race not getting promoted to FA. Tone did a lot of good work there, and I thought that one deserved the star as well.

Also, you have excellent taste! -- Jonel (Speak to me) 20:31, 14 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Oh wow, I didn't get a chance to weigh in on that article. I hope Tone doesn't throw in the towel, it's tempting.  Guinness is one of those watershed events that people either hate or love, glad to see you fall on the correct side.  :)  H1nkles (talk) 20:52, 14 May 2009 (UTC)

Ice hockey at the Olympics
Hello, as I'm sure you're aware of by now, I am working on the article and am aiming to get it as a TFA during the Vancouver Olympics. It still needs some prose work, and I was wondering if you could take a look at it. Thanks, Scorpion 0422 21:17, 13 May 2009 (UTC)


 * No problem. I've taken a pass through it. Good luck with the FA review—I'll keep an eye on it and pitch in if I can. -- Jonel (Speak to me) 20:32, 14 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Thanks for copyediting it. One final question, I wanted to have a bolded title, but could not think of any that didn't sound extremely forced. Do you have any suggestions? -- Scorpion 0422 00:49, 19 May 2009 (UTC)

Boxing
Please allow me a comment about your changes to the boxing articles. E.g. Boxing at the 1924 Summer Olympics - Men's light heavyweight or Boxing at the 1924 Summer Olympics - Men's heavyweight. It looks awful! Particularly on small screens. And I remember that there was a discussion on the talk page of WP:Olympics that it is to prefer to show every athlete in the first column, therefore I show the byes. Also I edited all boxing pages up to 1936 in the same style... But it's up to you, I will not edit the Olympics pages anymore. Kind regards Doma-w (talk) 19:11, 17 May 2009 (UTC)


 * If you prefer the original bracket styles, I'll put the 1924 ones back as they were. I thought this way looked better, but I'm not set on it. I do hope you continue editing the Olympic boxing pages—there's a lot of work left to do on all things Olympics! -- Jonel (Speak to me) 19:21, 17 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Thanks for that. I know that you have done a lot of work for all the Olympics pages and that you have been engaged with wiki for a long time. But sorry no I will not continue editing the Olympic boxing pages nor any other Olympic pages. The main reasons are the "infobox" and the wrong historical country codes. The "infobox" in the top right corner destroys the style of all Olympic pages! It is nonsens to create a template for exactly the same place were we have already a template! For the top right corner we have the "SportsAtXXXXSummerOlympics"! The easiest way would be to create an "infobox" for the place were we had the "medalists" uptonow? The WP:Olympics defacto do not exist, so there is no way to work together... Kind regards Doma-w (talk) 06:19, 18 May 2009 (UTC)

2008 Summer Olympic Games to FA
If you guys (Geraldk and Jonel) are interested in making a push on the 2008 Summer Olympics to FA then I'm up for it. I'll lay out the various sections on the article's talk page and then you can claim the ones you'd like to edit. I've seen these collaborative efforts move articles pretty fast. I'd recommend using the GA process first as a peer review and then moving up to FAC after is passes GA. I'm open to thoughts on that if you have any concerns. Since the GA review process takes so long due to the backlog I may just nominate the article as it currently stands and we can work on it while it waits for a reviewer. I'll propose this on the article's talk page and solicit any thoughts there. Let's get crackin'. H1nkles (talk) 17:30, 5 June 2009 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Conrad Lee
A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Conrad Lee, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process&#32; because of the following concern:

I don't understand why you want to have 5000 cells to each page? Nearly every single link will be blank unless someone undertakes the task of naming every single Olympian for all Olympics.

I B Wright – what's up with that guy?
Hi. After a rather unpleasant, grueling experience with I B Wright (and what currently seems to be his alter ego, 86.182.66.217) on my talk page and elsewhere, I decided to take a look at the history of his talk page and and wasn't too surprised to find that he clashed with many other users in the past, you among them.

And while I think it was wrong of some of you to threaten him with being blocked (for tendentious editing, personal attacks, harassment or whatever), he's really damaging Wikipedia, putting falsehoods in article after article (I'm still not sure as to why he does what he does: Is he really serious, or is this all some kind of a very bad joke? Or maybe he's got some, um, "other issues" to deal with?). Isn't there anything that can be done short of revoking his editing rights (which already had been tried once before)? Couldn't it be arranged that his changes must be approved by someone higher up before they are applied? Oh, well, that's probably not feasible, still, it's comforting to see that I'm not the only one who's had a close encounter of the third kind with this unnerving guy... Thanks!

By the way, did you ever read the self-description on his user page?


 * "[...]he has a wide ranging knowledge on some often surprising subjects. Note: I B Wright is not his real name, but an apposite if modest description."

It doesn't get much more disconnected from reality than that.

16TeamBracket-Compact-NoSeeds-Byes Bracket (template)
Question about brackets, Jonel: Can you tell me if there is a way to add an additional game to a bracket? The West Coast Conference and the MAC will have a different format for their basketball tournaments for the 2011-12 college basketball season. With the addition of a ninth school, the WCC has changed its tournament format to a five-day tournament with an opening round between the #8 and #9 seed, here's a sample 2012 bracket: 2012 bracket after that everything else is the same. Here's the 2011 bracket. I'm asking, since you created the bracket template the WCC used. Thanks, Bearcats fan (talk) 20:30, October 28, 2011 (UTC)

Wrestling at the 1924 Summer Olympics – Men&
This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a search with the contents of Wrestling at the 1924 Summer Olympics – Men&, and it appears to be very similar to another Wikipedia page: Wrestling at the 1924 Summer Olympics – Men's Greco-Roman heavyweight. It is possible that you have accidentally duplicated contents, or made an error while creating the page&mdash; you might want to look at the pages and see if that is the case. If you are intentionally trying to rename an article, please see Help:Moving a page for instructions on how to do this without copying and pasting. If you are trying to move or copy content from one article to a different one, please see Copying within Wikipedia and be sure you have acknowledged the duplication of material in an edit summary to preserve attribution history.

It is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. CorenSearchBot (talk) 04:37, 30 July 2012 (UTC)

Navbox - infobox redudancy

USA vs Japan deletion
I had actually considered deleting the section myself after my latest edit as I started thinking more about it. I was hesitant though only because I felt it may be notable in light of the controversy in the simifinal. Similar plays called opposite ways, but both calls favoring the US. I don't disagree with the deletion, but did you consider this aspect of its notability? -- Racer X11 Talk to me Stalk me  22:30, 13 August 2012 (UTC)
 * I did. The controversy over the semifinal, however, is more about the unusual six-second call; while there were some complaints about the handball call, that was much less controversial.  Those are also far from the only missed handball calls made; I think there was another on a U.S. player in the Canada match that was missed as well.  Numerous other (primarily non-)calls were also complained of, but don't seem to have generated much real controversy.  If anything, the Andrade suspension should be in before any of those calls (and if we're going by similar calls all going one way, the Tancredi stomp also missed on-field should be mentioned). -- Jonel (Speak to me) 22:35, 13 August 2012 (UTC)

Getting Wikimedians to the Olympic Games
Hi. I am part of an effort to get Wikimedians access to the 2016 Summer Olympics as accredited reporters and photographers. Part of this effort includes covering the 2012 Summer Paralympics. Two Wikimedians have credentials to attend these games as reporters through Wikimedia Australia. As English Wikipedia does not allow original reporting, this is largely through Wikinews with a project page found at Wikinews:Paralympic Games. If you are interested in helping to get Wikimedians to the next Summer Olympics,I'd encourage you to assist with Wikinews efforts, and also to work on all language 2012 Summer Paralympic Wikipedia articles before, during and after the Games to demonstrate a track record of success. Thank you. --LauraHale (talk) 04:41, 17 August 2012 (UTC)

Bohemia at the 1908 Summer Olympics
Here's a question that you probably won't remember the answer two after six years, but I figured I'd ask anyways. When you created the fencing section for Bohemia at the 1908 Summer Olympics, you added a line for a competitor named František Šourek-Tuček but, in the sources that you used, he's only listed as "F. Tuček". I'm wondering where you got the full name, or if that he was accidentally mixed up with František Soucek the athlete? There's a Wikipedia page using his full name now, but that user created it based off of the entry at Bohemia at the 1908 Summer Olympics and the source used for the article, Sports Reference, still only has F. Tuček. Wondering if you can shed any light on this. Canadian  Paul  13:53, 1 October 2012 (UTC)


 * Unfortunately I don't recall. It's most likely from Wudarski or de Wael if SR doesn't have it. -- Jonel (Speak to me) 13:29, 17 October 2012 (UTC)


 * Thanks for replying! De Wael doesn't have it, but Wudarski does, although the file was updated as recently October 2 of this year, so I'll have to ask him when he added that. The reason I'm interested is because SR is trying to find out where this information came from and the furthest back we can trace it thus far is the Bohemia at the 1908 Summer Olympics article...
