Welcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, please note that there is a Manual of Style that should be followed to maintain a consistent, encyclopedic appearance. Deviating from this style, as you did in Amos Kipruto, disturbs uniformity among articles and may cause readability or accessibility problems. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. 217.116.228.14 (talk) 07:25, 11 October 2022 (UTC)

Please do not use styles that are nonstandard, unusual, inappropriate or difficult to understand in articles, as you did in Amos Kipruto. There is a Manual of Style, and edits should not deliberately go against it without special reason. There is an MOS for a reason so please follow it on this site. 2A02:AA1:102A:57A4:AA9C:48D8:17DB:27E5 (talk) 18:25, 19 November 2022 (UTC)

I have sent you a note about a page you started

Hello, Track1News. Thank you for your work on Britt Weerman. User:Ppt91, while examining this page as a part of our page curation process, had the following comments:

Thanks for creating and improving this article on a notable Dutch high jumper!

I know the article has been kept in the feed for some time due to notability issues, which now seem to have all been resolved. It is clear the subject is notable due to holding the national record, silver medal in a youth world championship, and a gold medal in a youth European championship in addition to multiple national titles supported by coverage in major Dutch media outlets.

It might be a good idea to specify the national titles--did she hold championships for all years listed or only 2022?(https://worldathletics.org/athletes/netherlands/britt-weerman-14829644). I also wonder if it might be a good idea to mention her being ranked 18th in high jump world ranking.

To reply, leave a comment here and begin it with {{Re|Ppt91}}. Please remember to sign your reply with ~~~~. (Message delivered via the Page Curation tool, on behalf of the reviewer.)

Edit: included the correct link with 18th spot. Ppt91 (talk) 00:24, 18 February 2023 (UTC)

That link is about another athlete, Karmen Bruus. Pelmeen10 (talk) 00:17, 18 February 2023 (UTC)

@Pelmeen10 Thanks for catching it; I must have had that tab opened for comparison and unintentionally copy-pasted along with wrong placement. It should be the correct link now showing the 18th spot. Also, @Track1News found this source https://dvhn.nl/sport/Britt-Weerman-in-bloedvorm-gaat-weer-voor-goud-28249525.html that you might want to consider adding if you want to develop the article from start into at least C-class WP:ASSESS (it's behind a paywall, which should be noted if you choose to).

Height of Britt Weerman

https://www.baan-atletiek.nl/in-the-spotlight/hoogspringster-britt-weerman-legt-de-lat-hoog

An editor of the Italian wiki article changed it to 188 cm without citing a source, and the Dutch media incorrectly referred to it. 2A0A:A546:631B:0:E9D3:7FAB:C9FC:5FCB (talk) 20:20, 18 February 2023 (UTC)

Undid revisions without explanation

Thank you for your interesting contributions to the European Indoor in Istanbul. When there is a Red link on WPen:, it is a recommendation to insert an ILL which links to an existing article in another WP. Cancelling it without any kind of explanation it is contrary to recommendations. Arorae (talk) 00:15, 6 March 2023 (UTC)

Who knows who this Track1News was in his previous wiki life? Kasper2006 (talk) 11:37, 14 March 2023 (UTC)

Probably Jgwikid, notwithstanding Girth_Summit's rangeblock. 103.108.229.73 (talk) 10:36, 24 May 2023 (UTC)

Flagmedalist or flagicon?

Point 1: If we have interwiki we need to use. Is automatic its deletion when will be create the en.wiki page. When you want to streamline the table, see most of the medalist lists on Wikipedia, the flag is enough and not the full name of the country. Otherwise point 1 would not be possible. Thanks anyway for your extension of the 2023 European Throwing Cup item. --Kasper2006 (talk) 07:33, 13 March 2023 (UTC)

Christian Harrison (runner) moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Christian Harrison (runner), is not suitable as written to remain published. It appears there is a WP:UPE or WP:COI conflict. Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, and have addressed the UPE/COI issue, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. As per WP policy, please do not move into mainspace yourself. Onel5969 ^{TT me} 10:20, 28 March 2023 (UTC)

Hello @Onel5969:. It's not my article and it was not me to move it into mainspace (I can read). It was article creator @Kj2023:, I think. Regards, Track1News (talk) 10:39, 28 March 2023 (UTC)

DoubleGrazing (talk) 15:06, 30 March 2023 (UTC)

Hello @DoubleGrazing:, this is not my article and I'm not interested in it. This is @Kj2023:'s article. Track1News (talk) 16:44, 30 March 2023 (UTC)

Sorry, Twinkle must have sent that to you. Sometimes when articles are moved between drafts and the main space, the system gets confused about who the original author was. I often get notifications saying my draft is going stale and will be deleted soon, and most of the time I've no idea what it's about. :) -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 17:14, 30 March 2023 (UTC)

Thanks for moving it to Kj2023's UTP. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 17:15, 30 March 2023 (UTC)

10,000 metres useless ultra-low quality edits

There will be plenty now that If you are going to be editing track and field articles, I welcome the support. I've made over 100,000 edits, mostly in that subject area over the last 15 plus years, we will cross paths again. Perhaps you are not familiar with the collegial fashion of wikipedia editing. You may to get perfection in one edit, don't expect it. More often, every edit will get corrected and perfected over time, whether by me or other editors. My edit(s) on the 10,000 may not have had the perfect linked name, but the significance of the event is still valid. There is a lot of other details also involved in making that insertion into historical data. The time I saw announced on the video feed was validated by a source which I posted. Low quality or whatever, what I wrote was backed by a source, its not perfect but still valid. It is common for such a thing to get corrected on such a short turnaround. Right now we are maybe 10 hours after the event occurred, most of which I spent sleeping. Dependable sources were not available in the moment. I am awake and Europe has had their news cycle pass. So don't be so fast to pull the trigger to criticize one of your colleagues for small stuff. Fix and improve, that is why we are all doing this. Trackinfo (talk) 18:07, 21 May 2023 (UTC)
