Years covered by this article
editWhy does this article cover only the open era of tennis? That's a very serious flaw. Striving4 (talk) 17:37, 13 June 2010 (UTC)
- Because it is called Open not Championships! I think all slam articles need to be broken up because not the same tournament one was for Amateurs and the other for Professionals!69.137.120.81 (talk) 19:46, 13 June 2010 (UTC)
- The coverage of this article (plus the three others about the French Open, Australian Open, and Wimbledon) appears to be unique from all others about Grand Slam tournaments. That's not a good thing, IMO. Striving4 (talk) 20:12, 13 June 2010 (UTC)
- Explain, what the heck you mean by unique?69.137.120.81 (talk) 20:19, 13 June 2010 (UTC)
- "Unique" means "being the only of if its kind or having no equal." Different. Striving4 (talk) 20:28, 13 June 2010 (UTC)
- They are all the same type and style of article, which that is a dictionary definition, and I knew that!69.137.120.81 (talk) 20:54, 13 June 2010 (UTC)
- I will reword the lead to make it sound better and match the others that only mention four timers!69.137.120.81 (talk) 20:57, 13 June 2010 (UTC)
- If this is truly an open only article then you must change the lead sentence to match that opinion. It did not start in 1881 it started in 1968, period. All mention of the US Championship timeframe should be removed from the lead paragraph. Fyunck(click) (talk) 05:56, 14 June 2010 (UTC)
I only mentioned back-to-back twice! What language is exactly unsourced by me with top ranked, which you can tell by the bracket article that link in the wikitables? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.137.120.81 (talk) 21:09, 13 June 2010 (UTC)
