2009 Formula One season

[edit]

The race summaries are not needed as have not been used before. Please don't add them. Chubbennaitor 18:13, 13 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with Chubbennaitor here. With these types of articles, we don't have a "definite" format for them yet, none of these types of articles have yet reached FA status, so its hard to get a gauge on what the layout should be like. You are welcome to start a new discussion on WT:F1 if you feel the need too. D.M.N. (talk) 19:54, 13 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I looked in the 2000-2009 seasons as they are the most up-to-date seasons I know of. There is only one season out 60 you've shown me that it was used, so you should've discussed it's change or add. It was a drastic change that wasn't discussed. You came to me with harsh words on horrible issues and you don't seem to have a reason for me being rude as I didn't tell you off just said 'please don't do that'. I was accused very badly on a very bad day for me. I'm one of the most most respected people at my place of work and I got shouted at, for if you look up, something only one user found properly offensive which wasn't something bad. Now. I came in calmly and I just lost it because you did. Sorry if I got rowdy and you took offense. If it was backed in my quick look over as I hadn't seen it before so I was pretty sure it wasn't liable on the article. Thank you. Please remember to remain civil as you hadn't done your research on me. Chubbennaitor 20:16, 13 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Account

[edit]

Why have you got two accounts? Chubbennaitor 13:07, 14 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

What you do is get a new password emailed to you and use that then change your password. Chubbennaitor 13:09, 14 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I'd go to the main help desk if I were you. Chubbennaitor 13:16, 14 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
The people would find a way. Chubbennaitor 14:00, 14 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Constructor Formula One drivers

[edit]

I invite you to comment on this. --Falcadore (talk) 21:38, 14 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Also, when creating a new category, please put in a sentence or two of explanation as to what the category is, on the category page. Saves some of the confusion you are now experiencing. If it has to be explained to fellow Formula One edittors then the general public readers - who are Wikipedia's target audience and are those who should always be who you are writing for rather than fellow racing fans - will have no hope understanding what your are doing. --Falcadore (talk) 23:16, 14 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Walter Wolf Racing

[edit]

If someone drove for Walter Wolf Racing it doesn't mean that they drove for Williams. Yes Frank Williams was involved but the Wolf-Williams FW05 was actually a Hesketh. Please get your facts correct before doing these mass edits. Bjmullan (talk) 21:52, 14 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, please remember that driving a Williams or a McLaren in a GP does not necessarily mean driving for those teams. Many drivers drove older non-works cars, having nothing to do with the factory team. Bretonbanquet (talk) 21:59, 14 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Point taken, but for the sake of the relevance of the category, they need to be restricted to the works teams. Someone tooling around at the back in a poorly-prepared, year-old McLaren or a heavily-modified Williams bears no relevance to the works team, and in the case of some like Kessel's Apollon-Williams, no real relevance to the constructor either. It would also open up anomalies like Brian McGuire's "self-built" car, which was, in fact, a Williams. It's open to problems if we don't just stick to works drivers.

Hi,

In the article 2006 Winter Olympics national flag bearers, your lead sentence is as follows:

"During the Parade of Nations portion of the 2008 Summer Olympics opening ceremony [...]."

Is this article about the 2006 or 2008 olympics? Further, do you plan on improving the list, or were there only two countries involved? -Zeus-u|c 23:18, 15 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, the lead sentence was an error. The corresponding 2008 article already exists. Obviously more than two nations took part, and I will add them when I have time. Thanks WilliamF1two (talk) 14:51, 16 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Sure, no problem, I was just a bit confused. Thanks for doing this. -Zeus-u|c 20:28, 16 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
