Thanks for the clarification on including it as a summer sport - I still don't quite get it, but I trust that it's in the right place. -- Natalya 23:51, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
Shovel racing
You made a comment on the X Games talk page about four months ago regarding shovel racing, but I don't know if you ever got an answer. You are correct- super-modified shovel racing was held for one year, and it was in 1997. -- Kicking222 14:15, 12 December 2006 (UTC)
College Baseball Project
Hello, I noticed that you have edited a College baseball related article. You may be interested to know that there is a college baseball WikiProject which you can join if you like. We would love to have you!
Second Mexican War Merge
Well I was just being bold and decided to merge the two pages, seeing as the Second Mexican War is basically the plot of How Few Remain, there seemed to be no point in having two separate pages. And I chose not to start a merge discussion because of its non-controversial nature (see Help:Merging and moving pages#Merging's How to Merge Section). If you disagree, feel free to revert, and I'll stick a proposed merge tag on. Oh, and that merge is just a crude one, I'll copy-edit it to truncate the long plot summary when I have some time tomorrow.

Thanks for teaming up with me to add results to the United States at the 2011 Pan American Games page! Couldn't have done it without you. Prayerfortheworld (talk) 22:53, 30 October 2011 (UTC) |
- Thanks. I know we almost got in a couple of edit wars but it was nice having someone else to help contain the chaos and keep up with the madness. I noticed you're in the Olympics group, is there some kind of coordination structure planned for the '12 Olympics so we don't end up stepping on each others' toes again? Torlek (talk) 23:41, 5 November 2011 (UTC)
- No problem! Yeah, it was better to share the load with you, even if we had a few edit conflicts here and there. I'm not very sure if there's anything of that sort... I haven't seen any coordination structure browsing through WP:OLYMPICS. I know there's the MoS for the nations pages, but that's about all... I hope we'll be able to work something out!

Disambiguation link notification for June 28
Hi. When you recently edited United States at the 2012 Summer Olympics, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Ryan Bailey (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Disambiguation link notification for November 10
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited NCAA Division I conference realignment, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Colonial Athletic Conference (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Olympics
Hello Torlek,
I have a question. Do you think it is necessary to have a deficit column in cross-country skiing for the athletes in their respective nations pages? I've seen the example that does not contain it, and I have a problem. One of the users keeps on reverting my edits about the use of deficit column, and demands me to stop removing it. Hope you understand my concern. Thank you! Raymarcbadz (talk) 15:01, 19 January 2014 (UTC)
- User:Sportsfan 1234 mentioned for figure skating the names are put one the same line, because the ISU does the same [1] with their results. And for your intention, the names of skaters in mixed gender competitions must be broken into separate lines. What's the reason behind it? Which of these ideas do you think are appropriate for the nations pages? Raymarcbadz (talk) 03:00, 24 January 2014 (UTC)
Wikipedia:WikiProject Olympics/Manual of Style (Games summary – Nations)
Per the Manual of Style athletes are listed with their events. Not events with athletes. So please do not revert. Sportsfan 1234 (talk) 05:06, 9 February 2014 (UTC)
Hey
It was an accident. Don't worry. Everything will be okay. --Płoviskyïovę (talk) 18:51, 15 February 2014 (UTC)

Hey I just wanted to let you know that I fixed the games and times for you. You didn't have the right times in the Qualification Playoffs. They are all correct now. 68.61.22.104 (talk) 09:36, 17 February 2014 (UTC)
Disambiguation link notification for July 28
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited United States at the 2015 Pan American Games, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Michael Weiss (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).

Dates and templates
Hi. I just wanted to let you know why I reverted your edits to the olympic match templates. I did it because you changed to a sorting template {{dts}} which is supposed to be used in tables for sorting. Instead {{Start date}} should be used to emit the correct microformats for the dates. If you have any questions about this, feel free to ask. Qed237 (talk) 10:29, 28 July 2016 (UTC)
Medal icons
If you want medal icons then find consensus. The matchtables are to display results and nothing else. You are currently edit warring. Qed237 (talk) 21:18, 21 August 2016 (UTC)
August 2016
You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Template:2016 Summer Olympics men's volleyball match E1. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.
Please be particularly aware that Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states:
- Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made.
- Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.
If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. Qed237 (talk) 21:19, 21 August 2016 (UTC)
