editHello, I'm Oshwah. I noticed that you made a change to an article, The Corbett-Fitzsimmons Fight, but you didn't provide a source. I’ve removed it for now, but if you’d like to include a citation to a reliable source and re-add it, please do so! If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 12:18, 20 November 2019 (UTC)

- No it wasn't. Check again. There's also a manual of style for articles on boxing. Check it. 93.74.129.41 (talk) 20:27, 23 December 2019 (UTC)
- This was not vandalism, but a disagreement. When more than one editor disagrees with your edits you should consider WP:Dispute resolution.--SaskatchewanSenator (talk) 04:36, 2 January 2020 (UTC)
- When more than one editor disagrees with your edits, they should check MOS and other articles for a proper sample. 93.74.129.41 (talk) 10:37, 2 January 2020 (UTC)
- The MOS is not very specific on this and, in my opinion, was not written to cover such an exhaustive listing of an amateur record.--SaskatchewanSenator (talk) 05:13, 3 January 2020 (UTC)
- It is a vital part of one's biography though, which allows the reader to judge of the quality of competition and quality of opposition. And again, it's up to the wiki-toolkit to fit the listing into the frame by making it expandable/collapsible. It's not about place to hide it, it's about tools to hide it. 93.74.129.41 (talk) 16:41, 3 January 2020 (UTC)

Disambiguation pages
editPlease note that disambiguation pages like Suprise Attack are meant to help readers find a specific existing article quickly and easily. For that reason, they have guidelines that are different from articles. From the Wikipedia:Disambiguation dos and don'ts you should:
- Only list articles that readers might reasonably be looking for
- Use short sentence fragment descriptions, with no punctuation at the end
- Use exactly one navigable link ("blue link") in each entry that mentions the title being disambiguated
- Only add a "red link" if used in existing articles, and include a "blue link" to an appropriate article
- Do not pipe links (unless style requires it) – keep the full title of the article visible
- Do not insert external links or references - Wikipedia is not a business directory
I replaced your entry with Surprise attack. Leschnei (talk) 13:47, 24 December 2019 (UTC)
- all right. It's ok with me. 93.74.129.41 (talk) 14:33, 24 December 2019 (UTC)

World Sambo
editI don't think it's hard to understand 1973 World Wrestling Championships is only about wrestling, and Sambo is not wrestling, it's good to mention another event being held at the same time and the same venue but that's it, there is a separate page for 1973 Worlds Sambo, it's not 1973 FIAS World Championship, it's World Sambo Championship, it doesn't matter who organized the event, FILA or FIAS. even if one day UWW decides to have Grappling Worlds at the same time with Wrestling, (which I think they did) that should be in a different article. Mohsen1248 (talk) 11:24, 19 January 2020 (UTC)
- "Sambo is not wrestling" . . . FILA, International Olympic Committee, Amateur Athletic Union disagree with you. Too bad you're still not able to read. 93.74.129.41 (talk) 17:37, 27 January 2020 (UTC)
- The article is World Wrestling Championship , there is a separate page for World Sambo Championship which is for the sport of Sambo, World Wrestling Championship is for the sport of wrestling. I don't think that's really hard to understand. Mohsen1248 (talk) 20:05, 27 January 2020 (UTC)
- Based on what I saw, it is really hard to understand for certain individuals. 93.74.129.41 (talk) 20:09, 27 January 2020 (UTC)

World Wrestling Championships
editI removed all information about other wrestling tournaments from World Wrestling Championships article, that's just for the World Senior Championships and the article is already too big for wikipedia standards, if you think they are worthy information create a new article for age group championships, something like World U23 Wrestling Championships. Mohsen1248 (talk) 18:24, 19 February 2020 (UTC)
- "that's just for the World Senior Championships". Says who?
- "create a new article" it's up to the community to decide on that one.
- 93.74.129.41 (talk) 13:00, 21 February 2020 (UTC)
- This is just common thing in wikipedia, just some examples, in Biathlon Biathlon World Championships is only for seniors and there is a separate one for Biathlon Junior World Championships. this and this for Badminton, and Rowing, this and this. I can't see a single sport with one article covering all competitions. again, if you want to create articles for other ages groups, do it but don't put everything into just one article. and if you disagree, ask "the community". ask for the third opinion instead of just reverting whatever you don't like. Mohsen1248 (talk) 13:14, 21 February 2020 (UTC)
- It's your initiative to split it into another article, therefore it's you who should create it or at least start a split discussion at the talk page. 93.74.129.41 (talk) 13:19, 21 February 2020 (UTC)
- no it's not about splitting, those information shouldn't be there. as I showed you examples. I check so many of Olympic sports and I see exactly the same things, the main World Championship article only covers the senior World Champs. I don't care about World Juniors, if you do, create a new one, if you can't ask someone to help you. and you don't need to start "discussion" for such things, just create the article.

Wrestling World Cup
editHi, I'm going remove those 2 unofficial events without any source, I showed a source here that 1999 edition was number 27th. do you have anything else to prove otherwise ? and there are other sources like this that shows the events started at 1973. there might be some other team vs team events before that but it wasn't recognized by FILA/UWW. beside that putting the host stadium makes the table too complicated. I don't think we can have both complete ranking (from 1st to 10th) and the host stadium. to keep the stadium names it's better to keep only top 3 in the table. I'm fine both ways but you can't just add whatever you want about unofficial and unrecognized events without sources and you certainly can't remove refs from the article as you did. Mohsen1248 (talk) 10:59, 25 May 2020 (UTC)
- and another source check the article US Wrestlers Blitz Canada, there clearly says "The First World Cup Amateur Freestyle" for the 1973 events. this is the 3rd one I'm providing. Mohsen1248 (talk) 11:08, 25 May 2020 (UTC)
