FISA double up?

[edit]

See Wikipedia:WikiProject_Rowing/FISA_database_errors#Duplicate_entries for a potential double up. Schwede66 00:25, 8 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I think it is safe to claim identity of Thomas Croft (main profile) and Thomas Buck (Junior appearance in 1988). Danish Rowing calls this person "Thomas Croft Buck", see here for instance. However, for the 1994 WRCH they explicitly list "Thomas Buch", so I am not sure whether Thomas Buch at FISA is indeed another duplicate. —MisterSynergy (talk) 10:21, 8 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Thomas Buch is an American rower, so presumably not a duplicate. Schwede66 17:36, 8 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, the "Thomas Buch" profile was already previously listed on the FISA errors page for exactly this reason: he is listed as American, but his only appearance was for Denmark. The point is: there is apparently an existing Danish "Thomas Buch" related to rowing in Denmark, based on "Thomas+Buch"+roning this Google search. This is really a difficult case. —MisterSynergy (talk) 22:15, 8 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Hi I am Thomas Croft Buck (alias Thomas Buck, Thomas Buch, Thomas Croft Buck, Thomas Croft Buch) the Danish rower. I 1991 did I add my middelnavn "Croft" - therefore in 1988 only Thomas Buck (I did row in Milano 1988)- sometimes my name is spellwrong "Buch" it is "Buck" that is why in 1994 (I did row in Indiannapolis in 1994) - so I have more profile in FISA (I rowed form Denmark....Junior 88, Sen B : 89,90,91 Sen A : 92,(93),94,95,96,97,01). — Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.91.97.208 (talk) 20:25, 31 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
