Mtin76 edits

You have reverted all of Mtin76's excellent edits on Number 1 Tennis Players by Year. This is unfair and you did not even offer an explanation for doing this. His rankings are far more agreed upon by the majority of fans and experts than what you have in place now. — Preceding unsigned comment added by NatalieTenerelli (talkcontribs) 17:06, 7 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Federer/Nadal lead edits

Listen Chief,

You are making objectively bad edits. It needs to stop. Focus your obsession with records on the RECORDS section, NOT the lead. DO NOT LENGTHEN THE LEADS WITH RECORDS THAT BELONG IN THE RECORDS SECTION.

Look - you are not using your brain. Some of the info there was wrong and I fixed it - Federer does not hold the record for Masters (27). Also, it have previously stated he had a record 5 straight wins, which does not make it clear how many actual total wins he had. Also, all quality writers know that you have to define if you are going to use 2 terms interchangeably; otherwise readers are confused.

It's a real shame then that you aren't a quality writer LOL. Whoever you are, if you had a bit of humility you may have acknowledged that the incorrect records I identified above, were indeed incorrect.

Request reason:

I have not made any disruptive edits. I have been making good faith edits to get the tennis articles more consistent and accurate - any good writer knows that if 2 terms will be used interchangeably (i.e. Grand Slams and Majors), you should make that clear - otherwise readers will be confused. Some people revoke any changes indesrciminately - that is why I said I would revert changes to what I addedInformed analysis (talk) 9:57 pm, Today (UTC−5)

Accept reason:

Per agreement not to edit the Roger Federer article for four days. Please use article talk pages more and reverts less. NeilN talk to me 03:51, 20 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

1977 - 1974 - 1975 - 1989

Let's see if we can agree on certain things. 1- The original article showed Vilas and Borg matched in 1977, such as the Spanish and French version of the same article in wikipedia today. 2- The article prior to my edition in reference to the year 1977 is not complete. Obvious the rankings of publications and personalities such as Agence France Presse, Eugene L. Scott, Livre D'or du Tennis, Tennis de France or Christian Quidet, all favorable to Vilas, instead says that "a minority" chose Vilas. 3- John Barrett and Bud Collins on more than one occasion declared that Vilas deserved to be No. 1 of 1977 4- Vilas was the tennis player who won more tournaments, games and points in the year. 5- Yes, Vilas participated in many 1-star tournaments, however he was also the tennis player who won more 5-4 stars tournaments (Roland Garros, Us Open, Washington, Tehran, South Africa, Louiville, Columbus). 6 - As historical revisionist investigations, we do not find a single ranking or note that names Borg as the best of 1977, all named Vilas. Examples TB Ranking by thetennisbase.com: https://thetennisbase.com/blog/vilas-one-on-the-court-two-in-the-desks/ histoiredutennis.com: "The year of Vilas": http://www.histoiredutennis.com/annees-70-3/Vilas-1977.html Prestige Ranking by Plos Magazine: http://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0017249 Scientific research of the Financial Times. For 1977, Vilas 5.73 against 5.72 to Borg and 5.48 to Connors: https://ig.ft.com/sites/novak-djokovic-the-best-tennis-season-ever/ 7- The Grand Prix Ciruit is not taken as definitive form, but it should be taken into account as a parameter, since in 1977 it was the biggest circuit by far (82 or 83 tournaments against 20 WTC). Just as in 1964 the US Pro Tour is named (19 tournaments), it is fair to name the Grand Prix in specific seasons like 1974, 1975, 1977 (Vilas), 1983 (Wilander) or 1989 (Lendl). 8- Vilas should be considered Co-2 with Newcombe in 1974 since, in addition to winning the Grand Prix and the Masters, he was chosen in that position by notable rankings such as World Tennis and Bud collins that year. 9- Vilas must be considered C0-2 in 1975 (along with Borg, Connors and Orantes) because it was No. 2 of the ATP ranking and No. 1 of the Grand Prix. 10- In 1989, the subjectives of the ITF and Tennis Magazine rankings are named, and the ATP Ranking and, again, the Grand Prix are ignored. Lendl won 10 titles against 5 of Becker, who won 2 Grand Slam. Both are considered No. 1 that year — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mtin76 (talkcontribs) 16:28, 4 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Becker vs Lendl 1989

Although I agree Becker was better than Lendl in 1989, it wasnt a huge difference like Connors vs McEnroe in 1982. Because of that I think it is probably best to go along with the rankings in part and have them co-#1 but you and Samanthastevenson40 seem to disagree. Lendl did spend the whole year ranked #1 on the computer.

World number 1 ranked male tennis players

Hi, just want to clarify that the tags added are not aimed at you or any specific editor. I explained the reason for adding them on the article talk page. Although they were added to the 1977 year they could in fact be added to almost any year but that would leave the article with 200+ tags which is overkill. 1977 is just an example of content that needs better sourcing.--Wolbo (talk) 21:58, 21 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

1977 titles and win-loss

Hello Informed Analisis. checking the tennisbase database, in which im member, I found:

Vilas won a total of 22 tournaments (16 for ATP, record for ATP titles in one year) in 1977. SHARE YOU: https://twitter.com/MartinCQ5/status/966520610745716738

Vilas has a record of 151-14 win / loss in 1977. SHARE YOU: https://twitter.com/MartinCQ5/status/966524608542380032

Borg, effectively, won a total of 13 tournaments (11 for ATP) in 1977. SHARE YOU: https://twitter.com/MartinCQ5/status/966526613855834112

Thats why i edited these records. The sources contains names of titles and also calendary dates. I can share also the whole table to TB ranking year by year if its necesary to be used, specially in the oldest years. RegardsMtin76 (talk) 04:44, 22 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Informed Analisis: I repeat, the one that give 0,1 difference is the Financial Times investigation! you are confusing the sources! i give both sources and its Financial Times, For the year 1977, who had Vilas 5.73 score agains 5.72 for Borg (0,01) and 5.43 to Connors. PlAnd ease revised the sources. Plos One ranked equal Borg and Vilas is WRONG!!

PLOSONE MAGAZINE: Vilas LISTED N°1 of PRESTIGE RANKING!!!! CONNORS FOR ATP!!!

http://journals.plos.org/plosone/article/figure?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0017249.t002

FINANCIAL TIMES: Vilas 77: 5,73!!! Borg 77: 5,72!!! That's the 0.01 diference you mean!!!

https://ig.ft.com/sites/novak-djokovic-the-best-tennis-season-ever/

(this change is inaccurate and shows the bias of the editor Mtn towards Vilas - this change will not be accepted.) ???? but the change was fine!!! stop call me biased, i suported all that i claim with sources in an article full of non-sources!!! call me biased and erased one correct edition with source included, bordering of vandalism. please push undo, im not the enemy here. thanks Mtin76 (talk) 20:08, 23 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

No. 1 pre-68

I wasn't sure your intentions, but often for pre-68 there were No. 1 rankings for both amateur and professional. Right now we only show the professional No. 1 player, but we might actually need both No. 1 listings in the box to be concise. Just food for thought. Fyunck(click) (talk) 04:21, 13 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, I'm going to be be forward in time from 1983 now (to 1998). To be honest, I think there is adequate evidence that the pros were 20 or 30% better than the amateurs, so I don't think there is a need to insert amateur no. 1. The failure of Laver in 63 and Newcombe and Emmerson in 68 in evidence of such. Plus Gonzales clearly dominated Rosewall in 57. I think Ashe in 68 was sort of abberation, and that Rosewall was the real No. 2 (Rosewall beat him resoundingly in their only match and it was just a fluke that Ashe won the US Open instead of Rosewall or Laver, although I did not read all the details). Plus the Barrett stats about pros vs. amateurs in 1968 show the pro dominance. So, that is really my opinion. I must say I felt pretty triumphant when I finished up 68 last night!Informed analysis (talk) 04:36, 13 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for adding, but please please add references from reliable sources, or they may be reverted. Sadly, the article is not yet well referenced, but that's no excuse ;) - Another advice: don't put too much in one edit.

Your recent editing history at World number 1 ranked male tennis players shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

  • If NeilN were still around, you'd have been blocked already, Informed analysis. You are obviously edit warring, and if you continue you will be blocked--no need to get particular about 3 reverts in 24 hours or whatever, I would file for Wikipedia:Edit warring and not even 3R, since in your case it seems to be an attitude, not just a reflex. Moreover, the article is a GA, and the person(s) you're duking it out with, Cassianto and SchroCat, have a serious number of FAs and GAs under their belts. In other words, they know what they're talking about, and you should take their concerns seriously.

    What else? You left a pretty aggressive note on Cassianto's talk page--but what you should be doing is taking this to the article's talk page. And if you are going to fuss at an editor with serious GA experience, you should probably be careful with how you write it, cause that was sloppy. And that's another problem--in Ingrid Bergman, you write things like "According to the St. James Encyclopedia of Popular Culture, upon her arrival in America Bergman quickly became 'the ideal of American womanhood'"--"upon her arrival" is a terrible addition. Certainly one of the things you will need to argue is what seems to be a persistent desire to include the "opposite" actor, both for Grant and Bergman (I don't see the need for that, for instance, and neither do the other editors, I think). So, your pick. Keep this edit-warring up and you will get blocked, no doubt. Drmies (talk) 15:39, 24 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Stop with the absolute baloney of the mood of other editors

Your World number 1 ranked male tennis players summary was complete baloney. Now I am in a bad mood because I reverted the lie you inserted about Nadal winning the ITF championships. He has not!!!! I have no problem with leaving in the yearly summary but we are not a crystal ball here at Wikipedia. You know as well as I that sometimes the ITF and ATP don't agree with each other, and some turn out to be real head-scratchers. All you had to say was "why don't we leave in the data and keep the players blank until we know for sure." That would have been fine. But no, you to get in some sort of ridiculous dig because I reverted your factual inadequacies. Keep things on the straight and narrow and all will be well.

Information icon Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. You appear to be repeatedly reverting or undoing other editors' contributions at Gregory Peck. Although this may seem necessary to protect your preferred version of a page, on Wikipedia this is known as "edit warring" and is usually seen as obstructing the normal editing process, as it often creates animosity between editors. Instead of reverting, please discuss the situation with the editor(s) involved and try to reach a consensus on the talk page.

If editors continue to revert to their preferred version they are likely to lose their editing privileges. This isn't done to punish an editor, but to prevent the disruption caused by edit warring. In particular, editors should be aware of the three-revert rule, which says that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Edit warring on Wikipedia is not acceptable in any amount, and violating the three-revert rule is very likely to result in loss of your editing privileges. Thank you.

December 2020

Warning icon Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to violate Wikipedia's no original research policy by adding your personal analysis or synthesis into articles, as you did at The Beach Boys, you may be blocked from editing. ili (talk) 10:15, 9 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Bryan Adams; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus, rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Points to note:

  1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made;
  2. Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes and work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. You are violating WP:MULTIPLE by edit-warring at the same article using your registered username along with the range Special:Contributions/2607:FEA8:57A0:DE0:0:0:0:0/64 which was already blocked for a month in November 2019. The cited source says the song is "karaoke standard" but it doesn't say that "more and more airplay" led to the karaoke status. Binksternet (talk) 04:07, 21 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Correct use of references

Hi, when you use the references you have to complete them, don't just leave the link WP:REFNAME. Thanks.:) Luigi936 ( talk) 14:32, 15 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

This edit summary is unacceptable. Please don't tell good faith editors they cannot take part. The policy about this behavior may be read at Wikipedia:Ownership of content. Thank you. Binksternet (talk) 02:07, 28 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The Who changes

Can you discuss your changes on Talk:The Who? As is this a good article, you may need consensus and reliable sources before changes beyond basic typos and formatting can be accepted. See the policy on stewardship. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 13:47, 11 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
