editHello. This is a message to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions, such as the edit you made to Talk:Pat Day, did not appear constructive and has been reverted. Please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines.
- First, just to let all involved know, including the administrator (DeltaQuad) who just reverted to revision 955311713 by Ponyo, that this article was reverted to the blocked NatroneDay's edits (whose sockpuppet IP addresses are 2601:6C3:4081:A10:880F:BE7D:110A:5D64, 2601:6C3:4081:A10:FDF6:F268:862F:3E64, 2601:6C3:4081:A10:382C:1DB0:F90D:B67, 71.215.212.25, and 71.215.18.168), and who actually is the one who has and still is vandalizing the article by both removing pertinent reliably sourced content and by adding unsourced content into the article with numerous factual errors. Examples: 1) Please change this in the article - Please change X "Pat Day holds all (unsourced) of the career riding records (Unsourced) at Churchill Downs and Keeneland, the two most prestigious tracks in Kentucky and among the most competitive (Unsourced) in the nation (Unsourced)," to Y "Some (or His) critics called him Pat "Wait All" Day and said he was just a big fish in a small pond (lesser rider competition than New York, Florida or California) in (being based in and riding primarily in) the Midwest (lesser jockey competition)."[1] because Y is what the article previously cited and what the reliable source actually says. And What the blocked NatroneDay wrote is certainly not in this reliable source, nor is it sourced at all. 2) Please also change this in the article - Please change X "Day's signature wins include winning the inaugural $3 million Breeders' Cup Classic in 1984 aboard Wild Again in one of the greatest stretch battles (Unsourced) for a big race (Unsourced) in modern American (Unsourced) racing history (Unsourced)," to Y "Day didn't win any riding titles (when based) in New York (Saratoga Race Course) or Florida (Gulfstream Park) when riding on a daily basis against the best jockey competition and rarely (reliable source says seldom) ranked among the leaders in wins at Saratoga Race Course and Gulfstream Park.[2] because Y is what the article previously cited and what the reliable source actually says. And what the blocked NatroneDay wrote is certainly not in this reliable source, nor is it sourced at all. 3) Please also change (delete because its both unsourced and repetitive as its already in the article down below) this in the article - Please change X "Day was one of the greatest big money riders, winning nine Triple Crown races (repetitive as its already in the article below) and 12 Breeders' Cup races (repetitive and already in the article below). He and Hall of Fame rider Eddie Arcaro are the only riders (Unsourced, plus where Day ranks to Arcaro is also repetitive as its also already in the article down below - "Arcaro 17 Triple Crown race wins, Shoemaker 11, Day tied with others with 9") to have at least three Belmont Stakes wins (Unsourced) and five Preakness wins. Day retired in 2005 with the record for most earnings by a jockey (Unsourced, plus repetitive as where Day ranks in earnings is already in the article down below cited with a reliable source). In 2000 (Unsourced), he was the active leader (Unsourced) for career Breeders' Cup wins (Unsourced, plus repetitive as where Day ranks [6th] in Breeders Cup wins is already in the article down below cited with reliable source) though he was later surpassed as the events were expanded (Unsourced) after he retired (unsourced)," to Y remove because what the blocked NatroneDay wrote is certainly not in this reliable source, nor is it sourced at all. 4) Please also change this in the article - Please change X "but was sometimes criticized," to Y "often criticized," because Y is what the article previously cited and what the reliable source actually says. 5) Please also change this in the article - Please change X "Because Day often came with late runs in big spots and had a reputation for saving horse for the stretch," to Y "Because Day often[3] arrived at the wire too late, he was given unflattering nicknames—Pat (I'll Wait All) Day,[4] Pat Delay Day and Patient Pat, "[5][6][7] [8][9] because Y is what the article previously cited and what the reliable source actually says 6)Please restore what the actual reliably sourced quote said. Please change X "His patience as a rider" which was removed to Y "As Pat Forde, a reporter for the Louisville Courier-Journal, wrote in 1995, "He is so patient he could watch a faucet drip for days. His patience as a rider was at times unnerving for owners, trainers, fans and bettors,[10] because Y is what the reliable source actually says. Please change X "Clver to his fans and lethal to his rivals (Unsourced)," to Y removed because its unsourced. Please change X ntucky Derby]] on LilTee." This is repetitive as its already in the article down below. 8) Please remove this unsourced quote - "D. Wayne Lukas once said (Unsourced) "I'm only as good as Pat Day's rides." Unsourced. The reliable source actually says, "Day often looked too passive, and his deliberate riding style of waiting and waiting, then making a move, and waiting again, frustrated trainer D. Wayne Lukas[11], and many fans and bettors.[12] He also drew criticism by riding tentatively, and stopping and starting with many of his mounts.[13][14] Despite the frequent criticisms of Day's riding style, rides, and being based mostly in the Midwest, Day won many big races throughout North America. 9) Please remove this false, total error - "Day was the regular rider on Hall of Fame filly Safely Kept, riding her to victory in the 1986 Breeders' Cup Distaff wire to wire on the lead." Day Never rode Safely Kept, and Safely Kept never won the Breeders Cup Distaff, she won the Breeders' Cup Sprint and was ridden by her regular rider Craig Perret. 10) Please remove these unsourced statements - "Day was equally strong (Unsourced) at taking (Unsourced) horses to the lead." And, "Despite occasional (all the reliable sources said often or frequent) criticisms." And, "Day won all (Unsourced. All? Certainly not true as Day never won the big Breeders' Cup Mile, Day never won the big Breeders' Cup Sprint, Day never won the big Breeders' Cup Filly and Mare Turf, Day never won the big Grade I Ashland Stakes, Day never won the big Grade I Carter Handicap), Day never won the big Grade I Vosburgh Stakes, Day never won the big Grade I Coaching Club American Oaks, Day never won the big Grade I Cigar Mile Handicap; Day never won the big Grade I Santa Anita Derby, Day never won the big Grade I Santa Anita Handicap; Day never won the big Grade I Hollywood Futurity, Gamely Stakes or Malibu Stakes, Day never won the big Flamingo Stakes, Day never won the big Grade I Vanity Handicap, Day never won the big Grade I Beverly D. Stakes, Day never won the big Grade I Matriarch Stakes, Day never won the big Grade I Pacific Classic Stakes, Day never won many other big races in NA; but its unsourced anyway) of the biggest (False and Unsourced) races throughout North America (false and unsourced) during the most competitive (Unsourced) era (Unsourced) of jockey competition (Unsourced). The blocked NatroneDay (check NatroneDay's talk page, etc) is using numerous different sockpuppet ip addresses (which is why I countered/counterbalanced to restore the pertinent reliably sourced content) to continue pushing his unsourced content with numerous factual errors version [by both removing reliably sourced content, and adding content without citing any reliable sources with factual errors] with disruptive edit warring in the Pat Day article, including 2601:6C3:4081:A10:880F:BE7D:110A:5D64, 2601:6C3:4081:A10:FDF6:F268:862F:3E64, 2601:6C3:4081:A10:382C:1DB0:F90D:B67, 71.215.212.25, and 71.215.18.168.72.227.160.141 (talk) 14:20, 10 May 2020 (UTC)
