I don't think photos of the precise moment of Marco Simoncelli's death are at all appropriate for this page. Or can we put a picture of JFK with a bullet through his head on his page? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.132.70.120 ( talk) 14:55, 24 December 2011 (UTC)
The other user's analogy is correct, and I'm not sure what you're saying biker. JFK's assassination has been replayed...but it isn't on his wikipedia page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.83.224.117 ( talk) 22:20, 10 April 2012 (UTC)
For some reason the races table included links to races the rider did not attend. This makes no sense and is misleading. If people want to know the full set of races in a calendar year they can go to the relevant article for that year. This article is intended to provide information on the activities of one rider, so providing links to the races not attended is pointless. Manning ( talk) 01:38, 10 January 2012 (UTC)
Hey, no dramas. I'm drafting a default notice to put on all the pages I edit, and agreed, a visit to WikiProj-Motorsport is definitely in order. At the moment, I can't see any good reason for this practice other than "we've always done it that way" - of course I could be wrong :)
Here's my current draft template:
There seems to a widespread practice within Wikipedia of including a full season picture for riders in the race tables, including races not attended. I believe this is a bad practice for two reasons:
Hence I'd like to suggest we remove all links to races not attended. The blank spaces clearly indicate the status of the rider for that particular race, and (as noted) a reader has easy access to the full details.
For the moment I've put the page back to how it was until I get more input. Manning ( talk) 01:55, 10 January 2012 (UTC)"
