Hey there. The source for Jack vacating apparently came from a press release put out by Don King in promotion of an upcoming fight between Makabu and Noel Gevor, where it was said it would be for the WBC Cruiser belt since Jack had Vacated to pursue a fight with Rozanski. |

You can say there's no proof all you want, but Tamzarian is [https://www.whitepages.com/name/Tamzarian?fs=1&searchedName=Tamzarian&searchedLocation= obviously an Armenian name], even if there aren't scholarly articles documenting this simple fact. --[[User:RaffiKojian|RaffiKojian]] ([[User talk:RaffiKojian|talk]]) 02:22, 17 May 2021 (UTC) |

The article [[:Johan Munters]] has been [[Wikipedia:Proposed deletion|proposed for deletion]] because of the following concern: |
|||
:I don't have to show that the creator said he was Armenian. That the name is Armenian is enough. Of course since nobody has actually written an article about the name "Tamzarian" being Armenian, I suppose you can force the removal of this simple, obvious and harmless reality from Wikipedia. Just don't say "this again?" next time someone else adds it because it's a fact that it's a *glaringly* Armenian name and to pretend we can't make that determination doesn't make any sense. --[[User:RaffiKojian|RaffiKojian]] ([[User talk:RaffiKojian|talk]]) 03:11, 18 May 2021 (UTC) |

Hello, |
|||
I have run into an editor that has erased the 166 fights that I added onto [[Joe Jeanette]]’s Wikipedia article. His name is Nightscream. I have been fighting hard to make him understand that the information came from boxrec.com, which as you know, is the OFFICIAL record keeper of boxing. They have Joe’s name listed differently as well. Basically the issue is that it is becoming an edit war and this editor is absolutely ignorant as to what boxrec even is as he asked me if it is a Wiki……I am extremely close to never editing again because of people like this who have obsessions with deleting information and keeping Wikipedia as useless as possible. Please help me keep Jennette’s record on his article, because if this can be deleted, everything from Muhammad Ali’s record to Floyd Mayweathers can and will be deleted. I contacted squared.circle.boxing as well. [[User:CaPslOcksBroKEn|CaPslOcksBroKEn]] ([[User talk:CaPslOcksBroKEn|talk]]) 19:52, 20 July 2021 (UTC) |

|||
In addition, I believe that we should add to the MOS boxing guidlines an explanation of the way I had set up Jennette’s official and unofficial records to compensate for his newspaper decisions [[User:CaPslOcksBroKEn|CaPslOcksBroKEn]] ([[User talk:CaPslOcksBroKEn|talk]]) 19:55, 20 July 2021 (UTC) |

Why are you changing [[Kenshiro Teraji]] to Unified champion in the WBA column on the [[List of current world boxing champions]]?-- [[User:Jahalive|Jahalive]] ([[User talk:Jahalive|talk]]) 19:41, 13 December 2023 (UTC) |

== Flagicons: the rematch == |
|||
:Greetings. As I've said in the edit summary repeatedly to the IP who keeps changing it, the WBA [https://www.wbaboxing.com/wba-ranking lists him as Unified champion] and not Super champion. [[User:Mac Dreamstate|Mac Dreamstate]] ([[User talk:Mac Dreamstate|talk]]) 19:55, 13 December 2023 (UTC) |
|||
::Hmmm, I thought they didn't do that anymore. They called it super [https://www.wbaboxing.com/boxing-news/kenshiro-defeated-budler-with-authority-and-remains-as-unified-champion here] and BoxRec calls it super. It's impossible to predict what the hell they'll do.--[[User:Jahalive|Jahalive]] ([[User talk:Jahalive|talk]]) 20:06, 13 December 2023 (UTC) |
|||
:::Guess they do still, unfortunately. Even on their site they've been consistently.. inconsistent about it, for years. In the past I've seen them label someone as Super champion on [https://www.wbaboxing.com/wba-ranking this section], yet on the rankings PDF they'll use Unified or Undisputed; or vice versa. Until they definitively stop using Unified on all their material, we can only go by it. [[User:Mac Dreamstate|Mac Dreamstate]] ([[User talk:Mac Dreamstate#top|talk]]) 20:12, 13 December 2023 (UTC) |

== [[Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Albums#Track template]] == |
|||
I am here to ask you if you can help me out by joining me in my effort to delete all of the flagicons from the professional boxing careers that I have personally added. If you go to my user page, there is a list of 267 fighters which I have added records to. Most of them still need to have flagicons deleted so it would be helpful to have someone else on this with me. If anyone tries to protest it, link me and I will let them know that I originally added the career and am okay with this. Some lower weight active fighters are on the list so it will be a good way to begin normalizing no flagicons to all eras.[[User:CaPslOcksBroKEn|CaPslOcksBroKEn]] ([[User talk:CaPslOcksBroKEn|talk]]) 20:36, 3 September 2021 (UTC) |

== New accounts on Beterbiev talk page == |
|||
Issues on [[Boxing career of Muhammad Ali]]. People are now destroying all consistency within the context of an individual record. We need to come up with a conclusion for flagicons because boxing records need some sort of uniformity within themselves and across others which is completely lacking and unatainable.[[User:CaPslOcksBroKEn|CaPslOcksBroKEn]] ([[User talk:CaPslOcksBroKEn|talk]]) 22:44, 24 October 2021 (UTC) |
|||
What do you make of the half dozen fresh accounts that have all piled in to the Beterbiev talk page to push the same idea ("heres an article that says hes Chechen"). All the same person trying to overwhelm a concensus? And is it worth tagging them as [[WP:SPA|SPAs]]? [[User:Nswix|Nswix]] ([[User talk:Nswix|talk]]) 17:16, 12 February 2024 (UTC) |

Why did you chance davis from 2 divison champion to 3. When he only held wba(super) and ibf at super featherwight. Then in November 2023 he was elevated from wba(regular) lightweight champion to primary champion. The rest of titles he won were wba (regular) belts. So then isn't tank just a 2 divison champion. It would be great if you could explain it to me, why you changed tank to 3 divison champion and removed his wba (regular) titles wins.

Carl forch himself said he won the WBA (regular) title. And he won it against Kessler who was the WBA (reguler) title holder. While the primary champion was WBA (super) champion Andre Ward. And it doesn't matter what WBA says because all they do is scam. [[User:Ronten5|Ronten5]] ([[User talk:Ronten5|talk]]) 14:18, 2 May 2024 (UTC) |

== Floyd vs Judah IBF title was vacate in reality == |

Facebook may not be a reliable source, but the one speaking was Jeff Scott Soto himself, who apparently may not be reliable enough for you to change the date. [[User:Jullo|Jullo]] ([[User talk:Jullo|talk]]) 00:01, 13 November 2021 (UTC) |
|||
Floyd vs Judah IBF title was vacate in reality as Carlos Baldomir beat Judah and took his title. But IBF didn't let Baldomir take the IBF title for not paying sanctioning fees. So in reality Floyd's fight against Judah was for IBF vacate title. And isn't that what Wikipedia is about, telling the truth everyone knows Judah is not the champ.

I am happy that we resolved this issue, but I am only creating this section in your talk page to make sure that the last comment you left on the wiki box project about supporters of flagicons to come back in 7 years was just a snide remark.

Now that we fixed the flags, can we rid this whole "0" losses redundancy in boxing info boxes now? [[Terence Crawford]]'s article showing, 38 fights, 38 wins, and 29 knockouts is enough.

Thanks for contributing to Wikipedia. Please remember that information must be sourced--all you had to do was find a RS that indicated that ''Southern Steel'' was Morse's fourth studio album. Cheers. [[User:Caro7200|Caro7200]] ([[User talk:Caro7200|talk]]) 22:57, 8 February 2023 (UTC) |

== Anthony Joshua Talk Page == |

There's a talk page opened up regarding Anthony Joshua being British. I have listed the statements of facts and why it supports changing it. Since you strongly opposed it would be great to understand why the facts are not good enough taken all together. Look forward to the engagement.

Hi. I could question whether this was a perfectly good image that you restored. All concert photography people say "do not cut off the guitar headstock". Sure, it is sharp, colours are OK, but still, it's a six-year-old photo that does not present the accurate image of the artist and that guitar headstock sort of makes it worse.

:Thanks for the clarification. I will adjust the edit. And I agree there ought to be more and more of good pictures of music artists (and basiucally everything - the technology is moving forward fast and good pictures are becoming even better) - this is why I took it on me to shoot as many concerts as I can in Poland. As far as lighting goes - I felt uncomfortable moving to higher ISO ranges. There might be a better shot, like [[:commons:Category:Steve Vai at 3-Majówka 2023|number 46]] - check and let me know what you think.

::Quite a good replacement, thanks for pointing it out. When you shoot and later watch, sort, crop the photos you sometimes fail to see the good ones. I will change it soon. [[User:Wojciech Pędzich|Wojciech Pędzich]] ([[User talk:Wojciech Pędzich|talk]]) 20:18, 10 May 2023 (UTC) |

Re: Badou Jack
[edit]Hey there. The source for Jack vacating apparently came from a press release put out by Don King in promotion of an upcoming fight between Makabu and Noel Gevor, where it was said it would be for the WBC Cruiser belt since Jack had Vacated to pursue a fight with Rozanski.
Here's the tweet I saw about the announcement, from Michael Benson: https://twitter.com/MichaelBensonn/status/1702852466050740417

The article Johan Munters has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
Non-notable skiier without significant coverage. Sole prose source cited is a trivial mention, nothing additional located on a search.
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. ♠PMC♠ (talk) 06:47, 2 October 2023 (UTC)
Kenshiro Teraji
[edit]Why are you changing Kenshiro Teraji to Unified champion in the WBA column on the List of current world boxing champions?-- Jahalive (talk) 19:41, 13 December 2023 (UTC)
- Greetings. As I've said in the edit summary repeatedly to the IP who keeps changing it, the WBA lists him as Unified champion and not Super champion. Mac Dreamstate (talk) 19:55, 13 December 2023 (UTC)
- Hmmm, I thought they didn't do that anymore. They called it super here and BoxRec calls it super. It's impossible to predict what the hell they'll do.--Jahalive (talk) 20:06, 13 December 2023 (UTC)
- Guess they do still, unfortunately. Even on their site they've been consistently.. inconsistent about it, for years. In the past I've seen them label someone as Super champion on this section, yet on the rankings PDF they'll use Unified or Undisputed; or vice versa. Until they definitively stop using Unified on all their material, we can only go by it. Mac Dreamstate (talk) 20:12, 13 December 2023 (UTC)

Hi Mac. There's recent discussion for track listing template. If you have time, your comments are always appreciated. Regards. 2001:D08:2933:D216:17AD:2929:6BF4:D7D3 (talk) 03:09, 24 January 2024 (UTC)
New accounts on Beterbiev talk page
[edit]What do you make of the half dozen fresh accounts that have all piled in to the Beterbiev talk page to push the same idea ("heres an article that says hes Chechen"). All the same person trying to overwhelm a concensus? And is it worth tagging them as SPAs? Nswix (talk) 17:16, 12 February 2024 (UTC)
Gervonta Davis
[edit]Why did you chance davis from 2 divison champion to 3. When he only held wba(super) and ibf at super featherwight. Then in November 2023 he was elevated from wba(regular) lightweight champion to primary champion. The rest of titles he won were wba (regular) belts. So then isn't tank just a 2 divison champion. It would be great if you could explain it to me, why you changed tank to 3 divison champion and removed his wba (regular) titles wins. Ronten5 (talk) 02:17, 20 April 2024 (UTC)
Carl froch wha regular.
[edit]Carl forch himself said he won the WBA (regular) title. And he won it against Kessler who was the WBA (reguler) title holder. While the primary champion was WBA (super) champion Andre Ward. And it doesn't matter what WBA says because all they do is scam. Ronten5 (talk) 14:18, 2 May 2024 (UTC)
Floyd vs Judah IBF title was vacate in reality
[edit]Floyd vs Judah IBF title was vacate in reality as Carlos Baldomir beat Judah and took his title. But IBF didn't let Baldomir take the IBF title for not paying sanctioning fees. So in reality Floyd's fight against Judah was for IBF vacate title. And isn't that what Wikipedia is about, telling the truth everyone knows Judah is not the champ.

Yngwie
[edit]No need to go to WikiProject Albums about the title of track 8. I don't doubt you. Johnny Spasm (talk) 18:01, 3 August 2024 (UTC)
- Heh, not about track 8. It was just the column that I feel like needed more opinions. Mac Dreamstate (talk) 18:22, 3 August 2024 (UTC)
- OK. If you feel that needs more opinions, go for it. I've not seen another live album on Wikipedia do that.Johnny Spasm (talk) 19:34, 3 August 2024 (UTC)
Pinocchio
[edit]Hi, in the Plot section of Pinocchio (1940), the correct phrase is "in search FOR Pinocchio", not "of Pinocchio", talking about Geppetto who left home to look for Pinocchio. Could you correct it, please? 151.34.126.160 (talk) 17:20, 10 August 2024 (UTC)
Inoue's p4p ranking.
[edit]Like what is the pointbof Removing inoue's p4p abd divisional rankings from his page. When he is currently p4p ranked 2nd and 1st ranked super bantam. The last user removed it because he said it was outdated. So I updated it to August. Ronten5 (talk) 17:24, 10 August 2024 (UTC)
"The"
[edit]Hi. My IP adress changed, so I'm responding to the comment you made to mine here. Check many song articles and you'll see "the" is barely to never used in the lead when describing the owner/singer of the song. I will not pose examples here as there can be infinite, but make the research yourself and you'll see what I said applies. 62.74.24.133 (talk) 23:14, 6 October 2024 (UTC)
WBA's own website list Gilberto Ramírez as world champion and not as super champion.
[edit]I don't understand what is your problem. WBA's own website list Gilberto Ramírez as world champion and not as super champion. You can go and look it up yourself. Here's the link: https://www.wbaboxing.com/wba-champions Ronten5 (talk) 21:15, 15 November 2024 (UTC)
- Well then you could have just said that, no need to go berserk. The only reason I changed Gilberto from Super to world was cause of WBA's current list of champions has him as world champion, While guys like Usyk, Inoue and Beterbiev are clearly listed as Super champion. Ronten5 (talk) 21:25, 15 November 2024 (UTC)
Found an essay you could point that user to
[edit]Mac,
You had asked in an ANEW report a while back about some essay or policy I could point you to regarding the editor who regarded long-established wording as protected from change.
I just found it ... didn't know it was there. Daniel Case (talk) 16:31, 2 December 2024 (UTC)
Soto
[edit]Hey, thanks for your correction about Jeff Scott Soto's last Yngwie album. I'm going to revise it to say something like "This was Soto's last album with Yngwie until 'Inspiration' in 1996", which I've seen done in similar situations. Cheers, Chillowack (talk) 09:37, 25 December 2024 (UTC)
