Scrubbing
editApproximately half of this article needs to be removed as containing unsourced BLP info; some of it is non-neutral...and I believe the details are excessive, though I don't know the standard convention for details on biographies of racers. For most sports players, we don't list a "game-by-game" set of results; rather, we summarize a season, with specific "match" (i.e., race) results only for particularly noteworthy performances. But the unsourced stuff has to go; I'll wait a few days for others to try their hand at sourcing, but then I'll be cutting everything unsourced or non-neutral.Qwyrxian (talk) 21:34, 2 September 2013 (UTC)
- Racing is a bit different, by its nature, than "stick-and-ball" sports; that said, a single sentence for each event would be much more reasonable than the paragraphs of cruft that some popular drivers' pages attract. I'll see what I can do about trimming the fannishness and citing. - The Bushranger One ping only 21:54, 2 September 2013 (UTC)
- There, the non-neutral fancruft has been hit by a MOAB and the article is now referenced to a fair-thee-well. Imma gonna go collapse now... - The Bushranger One ping only 01:55, 4 September 2013 (UTC)
- Wow, that was both fast and of excellent quality. This version is leagues (miles? laps?) better than the prior one. Thanks! Qwyrxian (talk) 03:16, 4 September 2013 (UTC)

WWE 24/7 Championship
editI did a quick blurb regarding his winning the title. I did not want to do more as I will leave that to people better suited at editing so I dont mess up the page layout.
There was no source as it just happened live on tv. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.225.134.50 (talk) 02:33, 3 December 2019 (UTC)
Expanding number of "Triple Threat" winners in NASCAR's history.
editIn the lead, please change the sentence from this: Busch, who began his NASCAR career in 2003, is one of only five drivers that have won a championship in both the Cup Series and the Xfinity Series, and in 2005 became the 14th of only 34 drivers to win a race in each of NASCAR's three national series.
To this, as Christopher Bell recently became a "Triple Threat" winner: Busch, who began his NASCAR career in 2003, is one of only five drivers that have won a championship in both the Cup Series and the Xfinity Series, and in 2005 became the 14th of only 35 drivers to win a race in each of NASCAR's three national series. 98.160.169.160 (talk) 21:29, 22 February 2021 (UTC)
Trim down achievements section?
editWould there be any objections to remove some of the less notable achievements from the info box on this page? Some of the most clearly noteable ones such as cup champion are obscured by inclding names of individual races, such as the '2011 Oxford 250 Winner'. I think a good rule of thumb is if an article written about this person wouldn't include that acheivement when discussing their legacy we can remove it. Vanteloop (talk) 17:10, 25 November 2021 (UTC)
- For reference I would suggest removing these specifically, I don't follow NASCAR so some of these may be more notable than others.
2018 Coca-Cola 600 Winner 2017 Monster Energy NASCAR All-Star Race Winner 2015, 2016 Brickyard 400 Winner 2012, 2021 Busch Clash Winner 2011 Quaker State 400 Inaugural Winner 2009, 2013, 2016 Can-Am Duel Winner 2008 Southern 500 Winner Youngest winner in the NASCAR Cup Series at Darlington Raceway 2009, 2017 Snowball Derby Winner 2009 Winchester 400 Winner 2011 Oxford 250 Winner 2012 Prelude to the Dream Winner Former WWE 24/7 Champion
Vanteloop (talk) 17:14, 25 November 2021 (UTC)
- Two days later and no objections, so I have been WP:BOLD and made the changes Vanteloop (talk) 18:52, 27 November 2021 (UTC)
Eight
editYour number is not right and I’ve been with you for years and when your number change the eight is going forward but on tv it is on the bottoms moving ahead and your is on your car top moves forward 2601:3C5:100:630:359F:ECC3:B655:F1E4 (talk) 22:13, 8 March 2024 (UTC)
- Now they got it today 2601:3C5:100:630:359F:ECC3:B655:F1E4 (talk) 22:18, 8 March 2024 (UTC)
- On the tv they still have it backwards 2601:3C5:100:630:359F:ECC3:B655:F1E4 (talk) 22:35, 8 March 2024 (UTC)
