For the Wikipedia police
I'm putting in winning tournament templates for PGA golfers. It provides more information about a tournament won by a player, when it was played, who finished 2nd, if there was a playoff etc.
So far I've done templates for golfers

To name a few. Before undoing my work, it would be very good of you to check the previous entry and then look at what I did to it. If what I'm doing is vandalism you may as well cut off all people's work on golf biographies. These undos of what I did today are nonsense!
I made a mistake with the Wadkins page and fixed it. The Wins section is new, the rest is reverted. I deleted stuff by accident.
Hawaii Five-O
The contributions to the Hawaii Five-O article are appreciated, but a list of guest stars doesn't really do anything to help the article. It is just a runon list of names. Those types of things are not in line with the style guidelines here on Wikipedia. Nicholasm79 (talk) 17:28, 4 June 2009 (UTC)
- I shouldn't need to point out that guest star listings are part of other wikipedia entries. Law and Order and F Troop to name two.
- If you don't stop reverting and start talking, I will be compelled to take some action against your behavior. Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? carrots 19:21, 5 June 2009 (UTC)
- I also note that in F Troop the list has some context to it. Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? carrots 08:16, 6 June 2009 (UTC)

Eun-Hee Ji
You asked several questions and blogs as a source and about placement. Blogs as a sole factual source would be considered incomplete, but in this case I am stating that an LPGA Tour caddy's commented that Ji spoke English and then using that caddy's own published comment which just happen to be in a blog as the source. The fact that he formatted his site as a blog shouldn't matter. As for the placement, if you think it goes somewhere else, you can move it. I'm not sure where it should go. --Crunch (talk) 00:48, 15 July 2009 (UTC)

Se Ri Pak
Thanks for bringing the error in the source to my attention. I wanted to add a source for her 2007 win in that tournament, and I saw a discrepancy between the article and the USA Today story, so I made the change to match the source. Since the story is inaccurate, it should be replaced. The LPGA link you provided would be the best option. I'll get around to switching the links when I find some free time.

I'm not particularly a fan of Jaster's, I just wrote the article before I was well-versed in what the Wikipedia "tone" was. My apologies if the pertinent information was already in the article. Alex (talk) 17:43, 5 July 2010 (UTC)

Yani Tseng vs. Patty Berg - Records
Thanks for your response.
A couple of points. 1. The person who was "youngest to reach three majors" was never IN the LPGA Record Book so the record book has not been rewritten. If you are looking at a link that I am not looking at, please share it. I am looking at the link to All-Time Records from this page: http://www.lpga.com/stats_news_index.aspx
2. The article on Yani Tseng's win here: http://www.lpga.com/content_1.aspx?pid=25227&mid=1 still says she is the youngest winner to reach three major wins.
3. The LPGA and women's golf in general does not recognize a concept called "The Modern Era." We are not talking about either men's golf or the Olympics. LPGA majors are strictly a construct of the LPGA Tour and that Tour did not exist until 1950.
Best regards. --Crunch (talk) 00:54, 2 August 2010 (UTC)
More on Yani Tseng record
You point to a supposed record that the LPGA made in 2007 as proof that they have made a mistake now. That is not proof. As soon as you have verifiable that the LPGA's claims that Yani Tseng is the youngest to win three majors, let's change the article to reflect that and include the citation. --Crunch (talk) 12:56, 2 August 2010 (UTC)

Inex-Adria Aviopromet Flight 1308
I placed the article in the DC-9 category because, as far as I knew, the MD-81 started out as the DC-9. In fact, it was originally known as the DC-9 Super 81, though I admit I didn't learn about that until I looked it up after I received your message. I hope this clears things up.
Thanks for restoring content
Thanks for restoring the content that you and I contributed to John Mahaffey. Some IP editor (a clown) with a grand total of 15 edits, most of which have been reversed, did that. All the best--Hokeman (talk) 17:18, 4 March 2011 (UTC)

Articles for deletion help
No problem. It feels a bit complicated the first few time you do it. Just follow the three steps in this link: WP:Articles for deletion#How to list pages for deletion. Let me know if you have any questions. Pburka (talk) 17:32, 23 April 2011 (UTC)
- Hi William. I've made a correction to the discussion page. When you create it you need to replace "PageName" with the actual name of the page you're nominating, i.e. "Malaysia Airlines Flight 9". To complete the nomination you just need to follow step III:
- Open the articles for deletion log page.
- At the top of the list on the log page (there's a comment indicating the spot), insert:
- {{subst:afd3 | pg=NominationName}}
- (In this case, that would be {{subst:afd3 | pg=Malaysia Airlines Flight 9}})
- That's it! Pburka (talk) 18:28, 23 April 2011 (UTC)
2011 Players Championship
Thanks for the feedback. I feel that if all 4 World Golf Championships have yearly tournament pages that the Players should as well. The third round was correct, but it was the overnight scores (with the hole they were on at the end of nights play) . I finally added the final 3rd round scores and summaries to the rest of the page which now matches the format of all the majors. hietanbs (talk) 9:44, 18 May 2011 (UTC)

I just got your message about the edit I made and wanted to answer your question. I made this edit because the MD-81 it started out as a DC-9. In fact, its original name was the DC-9-81, or DC-9 Super 81. I hope this clears things up.
Keegan Bradley
Hello, I just wanted to take a moment to apologize for any confusion that might have been caused by the edit I made a couple days ago to the Keegan Bradley article. The edit summary I wrote was not intended to suggest that the ESPN reference was added to the article incorrectly. Rather, I was simply expanding on it. To parahphrase what User:Tewapack wrote later (and more accurately): "the more complete, the better". Sorry for not making that point clearer, and thanks for taking the time to read this. Take care, Gongshow Talk 00:21, 1 June 2011 (UTC)
- Thank you for your reply. I understand where you're coming from and especially appreciate the point you make about ESPN not being the originator of the wire story. Again, thanks for your time. Take care, Gongshow Talk 17:20, 1 June 2011 (UTC)
