edit

I've reverted two of your additions of flags at Tony Pond and Barry Sheene. See Wikipedia:INFOBOXFLAG states: "Generally, flag icons should not be used in infoboxes, even when there is a "country", "nationality" or equivalent field".

An exception is where F1 is involved; please take this opportunity to re-visit any other examples you may have added an delete them. Thank you.--Rocknrollmancer (talk) 14:23, 26 September 2022 (UTC)Reply

Driver names

From where are are you getting driver 'middle' names? On a quick scan, the changes do not seem to be sourced. Eagleash (talk) 05:21, 13 February 2023 (UTC)Reply

Full names in image captions

edit

Hi NRF101. You may have noticed that I have reverted a couple of your recent edits, where you changed an image caption to include a person's full name rather than just their surname. Per WP:SURNAME, a person's full name is only used on the first occurrence within an article; thereafter just their surname is used. Regards. DH85868993 (talk) 00:32, 1 March 2023 (UTC)Reply

Please use en dashes for date ranges

edit

Please use en dashes, not hyphens, for date ranges, like this. See MOS:YEARRANGE for more information. – Jonesey95 (talk) 17:53, 16 October 2023 (UTC)Reply

In a Short description, please use the en dash character, not the {{ndash}} template. See WP:SDFORMATGhostInTheMachine talk to me 10:29, 27 October 2023 (UTC)Reply

Short descriptions

edit

Per WP:SD40, please endeavor to keep short descriptions at a maximum of 40 characters, or as close to it as reasonably possible. Among other things, as per WP:SDEXAMPLES, it isn't necessary to include the genre(s) of a film in the short description, except in the unlikely instance that the film could be confused for another film with the same title.

Short descriptions 2

edit

Thank you for adding Short descriptions to articles. However, many of these descriptions have been much too long – the current guidelines at WP:SDSHORT advise a limit of around 40 characters. Also, the SD is not intended to be a definition – see WP:SDNOTDEF. The full guidelines are at WP:SDCONTENTGhostInTheMachine talk to me 16:25, 18 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
