European grand prix

Who deletes the european flag at the 2010 formula one season and al the other seasons it is the european grand prix i know it is held in germany spain and in the UK but it is still the european grand prix so the european flag User:Kevintjeerdsma1996

So what flag are you going to put for the Pacific Grand Prix? --Golbez (talk) 20:52, 12 July 2010 (UTC)Reply
The pacific flag no I'm joking I just mean that the flag of the european grand prix should be the European flag I know the races wher held in spain germany and in the UK but you can sea at the location of the valencia is the spanish flag that is ok but at the grand prix it should be the european flag.and the european grand prix has as specific flag the pacific flag hasen't. User:Kevintjeerdsma1996 (talk) 21:00, 12 July 2010 (UTC)Reply
As you're new here, you probably don't know there is consensus - after this matter has been debated to death - to use the location of the race, rather than the title, for the flag. Cheers QueenCake (talk) 21:47, 12 July 2010 (UTC)Reply
I'dont know what you mean it is just is the european grand prix so the european flag nowbody has to debate on that here at wikipedia User:Kevintjeerdsma1996 (talk) 21:50, 12 July 2010 (UTC)Reply

I am now warning you that you are nearly in violation of the three revert rule. If you continue to edit war, you will be blocked for 24 hours. --Golbez (talk) 21:57, 12 July 2010 (UTC)Reply

Ok but i whil chalange and debate until it is the european flag.User:Kevintjeerdsma1996 (talk) 22:04, 12 July 2010 (UTC)Reply

Then you will be blocked from editing. "I will keep doing it until I get my way" is not an attitude that will be tolerated. A majority of F1 Wikipedia editors have agreed that the European flag should not be used, your sole opinion does not override this consensus. The359 (Talk) 22:15, 12 July 2010 (UTC)Reply
I didn't say I wil change it again but we can debate if it should be the spanish or european flag i will not change the flag anymore you don't have to be afraid I'dont want to get myself blocked i'm not that stupid. .User:Kevintjeerdsma1996 (talk) 22:2112 July 2010 (UTC)

The359 (Talk) I have one question Why we don't use the European Flag.User:Kevintjeerdsma1996 (talk) 22:48 12 July 2010 (UTC)

A couple of days late, but if you are interested, the reason we don't use the European flag to indicate the European Grand Prix is that if we do so then the flag adds no information to the words. It's just decoration. If, on the other hand, we use the flag of the location, then the flag is adding information that is not contained in the name of the race: as you're aware European GPs have been held in many different countries. 4u1e (talk) 16:48, 14 July 2010 (UTC)Reply

Ok thanks man It is a bit strange the european grand prix whit a spanish flag but ok i get it (talk) 19:05 14 July 2010 (UTC)

Breakdown by car number

edit

Hi Kevin. I'm really sorry, because I know it's a lot of work, but I've reverted your addition of a constructors' table breaking down points allocated by car number to the 1978 Formula One season article. It's basically because I believe that is massively too much detail for a site such as ours - which is a general purpose encyclopedia, not a specialist motorsport site, and specifically not a statistics site. Please read WP:NOT#STATS. Other than ChicaneF1 and Forix (presumably, I don't have a subscription!), I can't think of any other source that breaks down season results in this detail. We're already providing far more detail in our championship summary tables than, for example, the Autocourse annuals do. The 1998 annual that I've just looked at doesn't even have a constructors' championship summary table, just a list of points included in each race report. It's also dupliction: for the period in which car numbers were allocated for a season, it comes close to duplicating the drivers' results table. For the earlier period pre-197? in which car numbers were allocated race by race, not for the season, breaking down season results by car number isn't meaningful anyway. I hope you understand my position. Cheers. 4u1e (talk) 05:33, 20 October 2010 (UTC)Reply

Non-championship F1 results

edit

Hi there, you've removed the non-championship results from a few driver articles today - any particular reason? It would be better if you didn't do it. Bretonbanquet (talk) 22:36, 28 October 2010 (UTC)Reply

Bretonbanquet I don't want to be stupid but i think that non championchip results are jus't races like le mans it is not a championchip so ithink the should be removed at all drivers do you know what i mean? The same in the formula one world championchip season all the races on that page should have a one page, because they are not part of the championchip,and also the same ase german f1 championchip and south afrian f1 championchip where the hell is that about it is not part ofe the f1 championchip whe should make a page called non formula championchip races or do you know a better name.(talk)

Please don't remove non-championship races from the season summary articles, as you did here and here. The season summary articles cover the entire F1 season (i.e. including both the championship and non-championship races). DH85868993 (talk) 13:21, 30 October 2010 (UTC) My mistake, I misunderstood your edits. Apologies. DH85868993 (talk) 13:26, 30 October 2010 (UTC)Reply

DH85868993 (talk)Thank you for understanding me.(talk)

The non-Championship results will stay on the drivers' articles until there is a consensus otherwise - they were Formula One races just the same as the Championship ones. I don't know what makes you think you can just remove huge chunks of other people's work like that without even providing an edit summary. Non-Championship races were far, far more important than, for example, European Formula Two races, but you're adding those everywhere. With the season articles, I agree with removing the few results tables that somebody added - they don't add anything useful in my view. There was no German F1 championship, and the South African F1 championship has its own article, so these aren't an issue. The SA results could go in the drivers articles though, when someone has time. Remember though, the season articles are about the Formula One season, not the Championship - today they are the same thing, but in the past it was different. Try to remember that. Bretonbanquet (talk) 14:10, 30 October 2010 (UTC)Reply

Next time you do it, I'll consider it to be vandalism and take the appropriate action. Bretonbanquet (talk) 14:18, 30 October 2010 (UTC)Reply

1st/2nd/3rd fastest laps in F1 driver results tables

Hi Kevin. Please don't add any more 1st/2nd/3rd fastest laps to F1 driver results tables withot discussing the idea at WT:F1 first. Thanks. DH85868993 (talk) 14:37, 9 November 2010 (UTC)Reply

I think it is very good now more info on the results bu drivers it like the podiums onlu now by fastet laps.

Definately not. The Tyrrell's were disqualified and all race positions were re-allocated. It is fundamentally incorrect to suggest they keep their race positions in any way shape or form. --Falcadore (talk) 01:06, 28 December 2010 (UTC)Reply

Results adjustments

edit

Hi. Just a quick note about some of the results adjustments that you you are making. Please check them thoroughly and make sure that your alterations are justified. For example, I have had to revert both of your edits today to the Takuma Sato and Arrows pages. Sato had a fever and only participated in first practice. The BAR team went as far as altering their official entry in favour of Davidson prior to qualification, so "PO" was the correct notation. With Pedro de la Rosa's participation at Monaco in 2000 the situation is more complicated. He did indeed take the first start, but as the race was red flagged on the first lap and he didn't take the restart technically he didn't start the actual race. Pyrope 20:29, 2 February 2011 (UTC)Reply

..ok. So just reverting without discussion then are you? Duly noted. Want to try and prove that you aren't actually wrong first? Pyrope 02:11, 5 February 2011 (UTC)Reply

Point taken about Stommelen, but your decision to split a couple of rows because more than one car was used still flys in the face of the conventions used for team results tables. These should be succinct tables summarising a team's championship results. The level of detail that you are introducing just isn't justified or desirable. On top of that, why did you only do a couple of rows? That makes no sense at all. Pyrope 18:32, 6 February 2011 (UTC)Reply

Again, I can see your point, but this has been handled in a more concise way in other tables simply by listing the different constructor points standings on different lines. Perhaps you'd like to discuss this more widely with the WP:F1 group? On an additional note, this is precisely why edit summaries are something you should be using a lot more. I think you ought to go and read the WP:BRD essay to understand how most experienced editors approach changes like this. Having to be continually prodded into explaining and discussing your edits doesn't do your reputation any good. Pyrope 22:09, 6 February 2011 (UTC)Reply

Reg Parnell

Hi, why did you blank the entire Reg Parnell page? Kansan (talk) 20:41, 28 March 2011 (UTC)Reply

A plea... again

edit

Kevin, once again, could you please explicitly address the following two questions:
1) Why do you hardly ever use edit summaries? Not doing so makes it very hard for other editors to tell what it is that you have done to a page. Not using edit summaries on the scale that you do is rude and disrespectful to your fellow editors. You have been asked to use them many times by quite a few different editors. Why do you keep not doing it?
2) Where do you get your Formula One results from? Their reliability isn't 100%, obviously. I've asked you this before and you haven't responded, so I thought I'd try again.
These two questions are important as, although most of your edits are helpful and constructive, there are a sizeable proportion that are not. They are either misguided, or are imparting incorrect information. This means that every one of your edits must be checked by someone else; you haven't built up a very high level of trust yet. Pyrope 20:58, 31 March 2011 (UTC)Reply

And if I might also add that you please check links you create. David Hobbs, Frank Gardner and Pedro Rodriguez do not link to articles about racing drivers by way of example. --Falcadore (talk) 08:12, 1 April 2011 (UTC)Reply

1975 Season etc.

edit

Kevin, before you put much more wasted effort into adding in every single result for the season summary tables, bear in mind that "Only the best 6 results from the first 7 races and the best 6 results from the last 7 races counted towards the Championship" and that only one score for each manufacturer was counted toward the championship at each round. As these are championship summary tables, and not exhaustive lists of each and every car that competed, the information you added is overkill by several orders of magnitude. Pyrope 04:05, 23 April 2011 (UTC)Reply

I try very hard to assume good faith on your part, but it's wearing very thin. Respect for others is a two way street and you continue to show none for your fellow editors here on Wikipedia. Your editing pattern is starting very much to look like a targeted pattern of insidious, troll-like disruption and not the actions of a conscientious, constructive contributor. You have been asked, repeatedly, by many editors to curb your behaviour and enter into discussions and yet time and again you do not. Care to explain here? Pyrope 22:21, 25 April 2011 (UTC)Reply

That's twice I've reverted you at the '75 season article - you can see from the debate you were involved in that nobody agrees with your edit. Seriously, you don't understand how Wikipedia works, you persistently make like difficult for others, and I don't think we can help you any more. Bretonbanquet (talk) 18:04, 30 April 2011 (UTC)Reply
