I'd like your opinion: is it appropriate to call an article on the 1971 Virginia Slims Circuit WTA Tour 1971? Regardless of sponsor, the other yearly articles are called WTA Tour YYYY, but I am not sure whether we would say that the 1971 tour can be considered part of WTA Tour history. Your thoughts?

Can I humbly suggest that if you are so inclined you carry the same due diligence to the article in question as to my comments on it. I honestly believe you'd conclude the orginal article was harsh and the current one more neutral. I think you're digging in the wrong place... Amicaveritas ( talk) 02:18, 21 April 2009 (UTC)

Good move. I've thrown something specific up there to serve as a starting point. Ordinary Person ( talk) 00:16, 28 April 2009 (UTC)
I've just placed my opening suggestion for the format of a highly notable singles tennis player in Wikipedia article form on a personal subpage, at User:Ordinary Person/Tennis article format. As the discussion on tennis articles progesses, please feel free to update that subpage to reflect new consensus or suggestions. At a number of places, I have placed the word "discuss" in bold, to draw attention to particular points that I think we should find agreement on. Ordinary Person ( talk) 01:11, 28 April 2009 (UTC)

The "swtiched template" idea sounds good to me, and AndrewHowse agreed as well on the talk page. Unfortunately, I have no idea whatsoever how template syntax works (other than the basics). How would the switch work, and could we still use the (|1=
) function? Let me know here or just leave a comment on the project talk page. Thanks!

There is a report at Wikipedia:Administrators'_noticeboard/Incidents#Chinese_Civil_War_territorial_changes that talks in some detail about Liu Tao's editing practices. There seems to be widespread agreement that something should be done, but so far it seems the administrators are not taking an interest. Are you an administrator and is this something you can look into? I ask you specifically because I noticed you put a warning on his talk page. Readin ( talk) 01:08, 6 May 2009 (UTC)
Just FYI, you will recall that a person who will remain unnamed (unless you click here) wrote:
I did consider ELYSE, however I didn't see it as a really good reason since all except the lithograph can be replaced with free alternatives as the building is still there. Indeed, once I get a GPS unit I'm planning a day trip up get pictures for both myself and to add to its article. *grin*
Since that time, I have without objection added an example to the On Revert section of WP:OWNERSHIP which reads, "I'm going to add a better [or free-use] one when I have the time." It would be WP:GAME to hit that editor with that change now, but the clarification may be useful in similar situations in the future. TransporterMan ( talk) 17:02, 6 May 2009 (UTC)
