Is there a link to the 2019 Big Ten Conference softball preseason poll? 147.126.10.152 (talk) 05:18, 20 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The Big Ten website might contain a link. Tamanoeconomico (talk) 13:53, 20 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
That's the thing, I couldn't find it on their website, hence why I asked here. 147.126.10.152 (talk) 15:11, 21 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I don't know that the Big Ten does separate polls from the standard NCAA polls. Here is the preseason D1 NCAA poll from Fast Pitch News, and Here is a collection of polls from other organizations, aggregated on the NCAA's own website. --Jayron32 14:13, 20 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
It's a preseason poll within the conference (not a weekly poll), it should be standard for most conferences and sports (e.g., "Minnesota Picked to Finish Second in Big Ten" or something like that). 147.126.10.152 (talk) 15:11, 21 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
This one maybe? --Jayron32 15:36, 21 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I saw that webpage, it looks like it refers to conference teams' placement in national preseason polls (not an intraconference poll). 147.126.10.74 (talk) 09:06, 22 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Gladys Knight Grammy Awards

edit

Due to the Masked Singer television show, multiple media reports claim that Gladys Knight has a total of 10 Grammy Awards, 7 of her own and 3 with the Pips. In her page here, Gladys Knight, it lists 7, with three of those being with the Pips. Is the Wikipedia page incorrect? Or, is this a weird thing where she received two awards for the same performance, giving her a total of 6 awards for the three Pips songs? 209.149.113.5 (talk) 18:49, 20 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hello IP. The Grammy Award website lists these 7 wins and 22 nominations for GK and these 3 wins and 10 nominations for GK and the Pips. I haven't had time to check her article but if it needs updating feel free to make the necessary changes. MarnetteD|Talk 18:58, 20 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I'm pretty sure 10 is was wrong. AFAIK, she won 7 awards, three of which were with The Pips. The Grammy's own website shows the same 7 awards as Wikipedia does, and includes the 3 with the Pips and the others without. The three wins for "Gladys Knight and the Pips" shown by MarnetteD are double listed on the Grammy website; those are the identical awards listed on her own list. They weren't all solo wins, "That's What Friends Are For" was recorded by "Dionne and Friends", a one-off group including Elton John, Dionne Warwick, and Stevie Wonder. --Jayron32 19:02, 20 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Ah I missed the double listing Jayron32. That is what I get for getting caught up by other editing. Thanks for catching that! MarnetteD|Talk 19:29, 20 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
