Hilhi

Thank you for adding to the Hilhi page. I was hoping someone would add some academics to the page. By chance, do you have a source for the information, other than you attending the school. One of WikiPedia's policies is to reference material. You could probably find the info listed somewhere on the school's page, then just [put the URL between brackets]. Thanks and happy editing.

Race Driver 3 Entry Modified

Thanks for ruining a great reference of material for RD3. You have removed public information that was of great interest to all gamers of Race Driver 3.

Whether it was 100% accurate or not for Wikipedia's documentation, I can find many other examples of similar pages for games. Why not go ruin them also and really get on people's nerves.

The material for RD3 was extensive and useful for people wanting to see the whole picture of a game that is based on a miriad of data. So collecting the data in Wikipedia made sense, since it is a reference source for information on the limitations and contents of this game.

You have removed HUGE chunks of valuable info.

I have used Wikipedia for years, and have found it invaluable for many sources of information. Thanks to you, this is the first time I have ever had a negative experience with it. Maybe you should just leave well enough alone ! Go fiddle with yourself, instead of others' hard work! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 210.1.205.140 (talk) 06:41, 21 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

A great reference material? Wikipedia is not a guide, a walkthrough, or an FAQ. Check out GameFAQs for information like that. I removed sections related to the championships, events, "Rick's Sayings", and the flag rules. Car lists and track lists are important, championships are still mentioned. If you are displeased with the current state of the article, feel free to revert it, but justify your actions and prove how the information removed meets Wikipedia guidelines.

Le Mans driver line-up templates

I have to say I am a little confused on these templates that you created a few days ago. I can understand the thinking behind them somewhat, but I'm not sure if they are necessary. First, all three of the teams you have created templates for (Corvette, Joest, Peugeot Sport) all have had major programs outside of Le Mans, so creating templates solely for Le Mans seems a bit useless. And sure Joest, being the historic team it is, deserves something more than just their Audi years. It all just seems a bit too trivial to me, and is not something that really helps anyone navigate anywhere. The entire idea of a timeline to me seems a bit odd, and it is not something I have seen used in any other form of motorsport on Wikipedia. The³5₉ (Talk) 21:10, 20 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

That's fair; I originally created them out of my own curiosity to see how the Audi lineup had changed over time and who had replaced who, but I was pleased enough with how they looked on my Sandbox that I thought they were worth sharing so others could get a quick glimpse at how lineups have changed over time. I was inspired a bit by both band lineup timelines and vehicle lineup timelines. Do you think the information would be valuable to retain as a non-navigation template, perhaps using the timeline functionality instead? I was considering creating similar timelines for F1 seats as well, or adding them to existing team templates. I do think Joest deserves a larger navigation template with driver and car listings throughout their history; I was thinking on working on that in the future.
