Having been watching this article evolve for some time, I'm wondering how it progressed to the class-rating it has now, and what the requirements are to move it into the next level? The subject is certainly doing his best to retain notoriety, so what do contributors here have to do to leverage that and turn this into something comprehensive? 98.236.51.204 ( talk) 08:19, 2 March 2010 (UTC)
The article includes (appropriately) the sentence, "Papp is also a member of UCI’s Whereabouts Testing Pool, and had no "Missed Tests" declared against him during the period in which he was ineligible to compete." However, the article was edited to reflect a contributor's belief that a citation was needed for this statement. Papp's not having missed any tests during his period of ineligibility can be inferred from the fact that his sanction ran only from July 31, 2006 to July 31, 2008, after which time he became eligible to compete. If Papp HAD missed a test, his sanction would have been extended. It was not, which - in the absence of accusations of a conspiracy or backroom-deal of some sort - would indicate that he complied with all the requirements of his sanction and did not miss any tests. Furthermore, an athlete returning from a sanction will receive from USADA (at least in the USA) confirmation of the completion of their term of ineligibility, including a statement that they neither missed tests nor were guilty of a whereabouts or filing failure. Check page 32 of the USADA handbook for more details on failings. HZ4w0uYd ( talk) 12:12, 5 May 2010 (UTC)
