Thanks for the contact. I live in Newbridge but I post from the office in Dublin (therefore the anonymity). I work in tech support, so between calls I manage to do a bit of patrolling.

I am suggesting that process color be merged into CMYK color model. Since you apparently wrote most of the process color article, you might have some opinion on the matter. It seems to me that the two terms are essentially synonyms. As both articles contain some rather vague and misleading statements, I think merging them could be an improvement.

I know you are keeping an eye on him but you are going to have to give a man with strong beliefs just a little le-way. the list isn't needed but what you said about it could have been added over time. I don't think that what it was deleted for is the real reason. Chubbennaitor 16:40, 11 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yes. I know but if he gets blocked the WPF1 newsletter will fall to pieces. I need him for that and I fully understand why he does some of those things and I'm sorry but sometimes people are just too pedantic over unsourced information. Which is going out soon so I can't talk much. Tell me what the vandalism is and show me and I can either back or argue with you. Chubbennaitor 16:57, 11 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I can understand is anger. I had anger like that before when people aimed 'vandalisers' rather than improving the Wikipedia. Chubbennaitor 18:36, 11 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I'm just a new user, not a sockpuppet of Flyhead!!!Motorhead12 (talk) 07:50, 22 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, but there are a few things you're doing that is making me suspicious:

• The way you're blatantly denying it, exaggerating it as a guilty person would.
• Editing your user page to not only remove the template, but to attempt to attack me.
• When you created the List of safety car affected Formula One races, it looks to be in the exact same format as List of rain affected Formula One Grand Prix, which was created by Motofan, a confirmed sockpuppet of Flyhead.
• After looking through your recent contributions, I've also noticed that you're asking a lot of people on their user pages on subjects related to F1. Flyhead used to do that as was reminded that Wikipedia is not a chat room or forum.

TheChrisD ^{Rants•Edits} 10:23, 22 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

This discussion is in reply to:

Sorry, I just have a bit of a concern about that new user Motorhead12. A few things looked suspicious such as petty vandalism on a few F1 articles, and a very short user page intro. But one thing that really made me suspicious, is that when he created that List of safety car affected Formula One races, it is in pretty much the exact same format as the List of rain affected Formula One Grand Prix which Motofan created, until other editors stepped in to improve it as well.

I'm just a little suspicious. If he's not a sockpuppet, then I apologise and will step away. But, editing his user page to blatantly deny it, as well at attempting to attack me is also concerning me: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User%3AMotorhead12&diff=220934460&oldid=220841545 TheChrisD ^{Rants•Edits} 10:16, 22 June 2008 (UTC)

I know he sounds suspicious and I'm keeping an eye on them. I'd say he's Motofan. He came straight to me and it was because he saw my name on the list. Why me. Why just me? I think he new me and had to think of a not very suspicious reason. Please don't delete the page he created. Chubbennaitor 11:20, 22 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yea, the main reason I copped onto him was because he seemed to come straight to you. It's not as if you're name is plastered all over the Formula 1 articles for all to see! TheChrisD ^{Rants•Edits} 11:26, 22 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hang on so you're not aloud to discuss subjects anymore! The last bullet point needs to be re-thunk. Chubbennaitor 11:23, 22 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not saying you're not allowed to discuss subjects anymore. I'm just saying that the manner in which he asks people things is very similar to the way Motofan/Flyhead used to ask things. See User talk:TheChrisD#F1 TheChrisD ^{Rants•Edits} 11:24, 22 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

That's fine. (I don't like the people who only believe the rules and don't give a human touch). No offense. Yes I think he is a sockpuppet but not of Flyhead. Motofan yes. Chubbennaitor 13:44, 22 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I am not a sockpuppet and I only want to do contribute positively to Wikipedia. I have a passion for motorsport and want to promote motorsport related articles.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2008-09_A1_Grand_Prix_season#Teams

I'm not an "eejit", Canada were not listed in the article saying the A1 teams for the next 3 rounds, so I assume they will not race then. When Singapore left A1 between seasons 2 and 3, their flag was left on A1GP.com for ages after they had left.

Also, on the official A1GP press centre, you will find this page http://www.a1gppress.com/page-18.htm . You won't be able to view it unless you're registered A1 media, but on it, it says:

Team Seat Holder: Wade Cherwayko
Engineering Team: TBA
Team Manager: TBA
Drivers: TBA

which is the information now in the grid.

You could have said that the first time round. Since not everyone has access to the A1 Press website, it's hard to accurately confirm what the correct information is, and as such most of the time we simply stick with what we had from last year until something on the contrary is mentioned in a normal news article. TheChrisD ^{Rants•Edits} 16:43, 3 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

TheChrisD, the "official name" of your country is defined in Bunreacht na hÉireann and is "Ireland", not "Republic of Ireland". There is legislation which states that "Republic of Ireland" is the "official description" of the state. That is not the same thing. The problem is that "Ireland" is ambiguous in a way that Malta and Australia are not. The proposal here is for Ireland to be a disambiguation page, because there's no way of knowing what people are looking for when they look for "Ireland". -- Evertype·✆ 13:32, 26 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I came here to leave the exact same message. And also to point out that it is this exact and precise reason why the "Republic of Ireland" article should be moved. The term only has a status in the UK, so unless you're in the UK (or happy to go along with the British name for our state), the name of the state is Ireland. It'd be great if you'd review your Oppose vote in light of this too. --HighKing (talk) 19:22, 26 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The whole situation regarding the locations of the Ireland article does need a lot of discussion as how best to arrange them, but I'm still opposed to making Ireland into a disambiguation page. I would assume that most people who search for Ireland want to know about the country, and wouldn't like to find a huge list of Ireland-related articles. As such, my opinion stands. TheChrisD ^{Rants•Edits} 21:39, 26 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Your assumption isn't based on any statistical evidence as to what people search for, is it? Consider an 8-year-old kid in New Mexico, who has heard about St Patrick's Day and its association with Ireland. Will she be searching for the State we live in? the Island? The mythology? She'll type "Ireland" and hope what comes up is useful. The MOST useful thing would be a well-designed disambiguation page. As it is the content of the current "Island" page has way too much non-island stuff in it. And searching for "Ireland" gets you to the island page, not a page about the State. You're assuming that "Ireland" should go to the state page, but it goes to the island page now. -- Evertype·✆ 22:29, 26 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

When I originally put them there, I had time and also assumed it was going to be quick job, but that wasn't the case.

I've added a plot for D&P, since I noticed it was missing and the sandbox version was lacking due to you having read it yet. Since you are the main editor at the article, I thought I'd tell you, and to voice any concerns on my talk page.

Hi Chris,

I saw your comments about the Shorty Awards wikipedia article: "Huge issues with this... Created by user whose only edits were this page and links to this page." as well as your Tweet tweet: "@shortyawards Wow, well done on turning into nothing but spam. AFD'ing your Wiki page as non-notable."

The Shorty Awards wikipedia entry was started by my girlfriend who's only other Wikipedia contribution (as far as I know) was creating a link between Bowling and Ten-pin_bowling. She has no connection to The Shorties, except for the fact that she knows me (and I'm one of the awards' founders). Seeing as how you are a much more active Wikipedia user that us, I was wondering if you had any suggestions on how The Shorty Awards page could be improved?

Thanks for your time, Adam (@varga) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Abv (talk • contribs) 04:22, 31 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

In short, it needs more significant content to be passed off as notable. Using those links that are down as Further Reading as references instead would boost notability, and help to remove the look of a piece of original research.

Also, you mentioned that your girlfriend was the one who wrote the article. While you do say that she had no connection, there may still be a few POV problems here and there, and as such may require some editing by people not related to the awards at all to properly establish a neutral point of view. At the moment, it seems to read like an advertisment. However, it's not so bad as to be classed as blatant advertising. TheChrisD ^{Rants•Edits} 10:03, 31 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the advice and helping to clean up the article. Much appreciated. I'll see if I can add some references but don't want to do to much editing, in order to keep the article neutral. Abv (talk) 12:28, 31 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

• Turns 2 and 5 aren't actually considered turns on the course - there are 14 official turns rather than 16.
• The chicane is highlighted even though very few series still currently use it. Perhaps it could be left shaded out while the main straight is bolded instead?

I have also listed the scenario at the Administrator's Noticeboard, as I am no "attribution law" pro, thus I think I should get some input before I do (or undo) anything. Specifically for you, I asked a question about your userfied copy of the page, as copy/paste moves can be problematic. I hope you don't mind, I am just a bit confused personally and want to sort the scenario out. The link is Wikipedia:Administrators'_noticeboard#Quick_question_regarding_.22Attribution_issues.22. Thanks alot, --Taelus (talk) 18:48, 13 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

 Done, its all there in your userspace now, I replied on my talk page also. Thanks, --Taelus (talk) 19:41, 13 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

As I'm sure you know perfectly well, no number of uses of the Newman/Haas name can possibly substitute for an actual cite. Why would you advocated for this move in spite of the overwhelming fact that it is completely unjustified? I can't understand this at all. No reasonable person would do such a thing. EeepEeep (talk) 23:54, 7 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

No it can't, but being a fan of the series who attempts to watch every race, I do believe that articles about the series and the teams should be correct as to their status as shown to me by the organisers and promoters.

Plus at this stage it's fairly bloody obvious. Did you not watch the race at Kansas and see the lack of Lanigan on the sidepod? Did you not read the entry list? Did you not see Froo's source where someone in the know mentions why Lanigan isn't there anymore? Just because it was a fairly stealthy changeover of name, doesn't mean that we need to turn a blind eye to it. TheChrisD ^{Rants•Edits} 00:27, 8 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I challenge you to find a single verifiable site for the name change. Nothing you've produced so far is at all compelling, and you know it. So what if a name isn't on the sidepod? For every news article that says NHR theres an equal number that say NHLR. You know this is just a rumor at this time. Why has no journalist comment upon it? Do you not think Robin Miller has called Carl Haas personally to see what's going on? Are you better informed than him? It's crazy, you know this is just speculation, there's no denying it. EeepEeep (talk) 08:20, 8 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

And "fairly bloody obvious" has absolutely nothing to do with it, as you know. It's about verifiability. Produce one dingle piece of verifiable evidence and I'll apologize, but at this point it's undeniable that you're being intentionally destructive. EeepEeep (talk) 08:23, 8 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

You need to watch your attitude before I take you to RFCU. The main IndyCar website itself has changed the name, while it is a secondary source, it's still a source nonetheless. Recent publications by them of entry lists have further solidified the point.

Are you still going to argue the same even when the final Indy 500 entry list comes out with the name? Because if so, then you have issues. Releases like that are enough to base information off of, in fact at a time half of the teams on the current season's page were only there because of entry lists. Proof has been given, it may not be primary, but it's proof nonetheless.

Also, to quote someone from a forum I noticed: "Well the IRL isn't going to publish negative news if they are not in the loop. It is up to Newman-Haas or Lanigan to say what is going on...and they aint talking. Cant get a press release out of people not willing to talk. IT isn't the IRL's job to speculate or try to fill in the holes." It looks like we're not going to get a proper job out of it, so we need to make do and revert back to other minor secondary sources, which in their multiples are starting to recognise it as just Newman/Haas: [1] [2] TheChrisD ^{Rants•Edits} 11:36, 8 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

"unregistered's shouldn't be changing that" -- Wow, congrats for one of the most completely wrong revert reasons ever explicitly stated on Wikipedia. Btw, I am not that IP you reverted there, just a laughing bystander. I hope you get your due indef block sometime soon. --87.79.170.110 (talk) 20:39, 4 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

It's far more likely your IP is going to be indef'd for comments like that. It has been the norm for quite a while that articles relating to sporting matters like Formula One and other not-based-in-America racing series than British English be used rather than American English. I was simply reverting it back to the standard that some unregistered, more than likely American, decided to change because they saw the way it was as "wrong". TheChrisD ^{Rants•Edits} 20:47, 4 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

LOL. What part specifically of my comment constitutes incivility, let alone a personal attack, in your esteemed opinion? Also, regardless of any spelling consensus, you're still grossly wrong in reverting for the stated reason that "unregistered's shouldn't be changing that". That's just not the correct reason to revert, ever. If you think the article should be semiprotected, request it. Otherwise, live with the fact that anyone can edit really means anyone can edit. Again: Your revert in and of itself was absolutely ok. Your accompanying rationale as reflected in your edit summary is decidedly not. --87.79.170.110 (talk) 21:20, 4 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

"I hope you get your due indef block sometime soon" <- That comment right there constitutes incivility. Now why don't you stop hiding behind an IP which hasn't had any edits before now, and post with your actual profile, since you seem to know enough about Wikipedia policies and internal workings?

And what if I had left my edit summary without the "unregistered shouldn't change that" part? Then you wouldn't have had any beef? I'm just saying that an unregistered IP shouldn't be making the decision to change to American English just because they probably looked at it and thought "Oh hell no, this is wrong, they're spelling tires wrong! I must change that!" TheChrisD ^{Rants•Edits} 21:41, 4 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

As much as I know, Dario had a gearbox issue around lap 200. The team fixed it and sent him out for a few laps before they parked him. Looking at the lap report on the final lap, Dario's last completed lap occurred some 3:15 before Kanaan crossed the line. Although not sure, there must be a rule that a driver who retires to the pits within the last five minutes gets classed as running. Either that, or I'm being pedantic! :( Cs-wolves(talk) 21:32, 20 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Well, I missed the vast majority of the race only grabbing it at lap 240, and even then was busy watching the NASCAR to notice, so I'm not sure whether he really was running or not. But I was just going by the results that they posted where they say he was running. Same goes for that lap report doc as well. TheChrisD ^{Rants•Edits} 21:42, 20 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I think we may as well just show what the IRL show and list him as running. It seems CGR never officially retired him from the race and thus is shown as running. Yep, too many sports going on at the one time for us both to keep an eye on! Cs-wolves(talk) 21:47, 20 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Yup, full box score now says Running. Guess he wasn't officially retired or something. TheChrisD ^{Rants•Edits} 22:17, 20 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Glad that one is cleared up! I think there was another situation a few years back with Wheldon when he was listed at least 50 laps down but was deemed as running even though he was in the pits. It's just a shame that the IRL very rarely publish their regulations such as the FIA do, just to get a clear structure on how they regulate a retirement. Cs-wolves(talk) 22:23, 20 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Looking at this talk page and your edit history, I see a pattern of edit warring and incivility, so maybe it's you that should be watching their mouth, eh? I didn't say anything a reasonable person would find offensive. Adam Carroll has never used Irish as his racing nationality (A1GP obviously doesn't count, see Graham Rahal) and listing this incorrectly was a direct violation of established wikipedia guidelines. 65.219.168.131 (talk) 04:03, 2 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

There was no warring, only people who never read the talk page at the time where the discussion was to wait until the IRL posted info, which has happened. I was referring to the fact that your edit summary seemed harsh, almost as if you were berating people with what you said. If you read the talk page you would know that we had issues given that A1, and Team Ireland in general was funny when it came for racing nationality, seeing as how to team covered the whole island, and not just the Republic, thus making it hard to say for certain whether Adam was racing under a British or an Irish license. TheChrisD ^{Rants•Edits} 10:28, 2 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Ninja'd? Bloody 'ell, that's a new term to me! Cs-wolves(talk) 22:38, 4 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Yep, honestly never heard of the term before. I actually had to look it up just for an idea. My apologies for it, as it's usually you that is just slightly quicker to get the results up! Cs-wolves(talk) 22:43, 4 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hello you have new messages regarding the newer tables for results. Thanks and happy editing. Nascar1996 01:07, 11 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, are you going to continuesly update the standings? User:Wean0r is taking a long Wikibreak. I'm wanting to know because I may have to update it. Then, next season so I'm wondering if you are going to do it or will I. Nascar1996 00:46, 19 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I aim to update them every week after the race ends, however I was away all this past weekend and had no connection at all, so I presumed someone else would have done it in the meantime. TheChrisD ^{Rants•Edits} 18:32, 19 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

No, only you and Wean0r have done it since I made the table. I would do it, but I have the entire race to write about. Hopefully Wean0r will come back because he was a big helper for the NASCAR project. It seems that ever since you alls conflict with the table he hasn't been back. Nascar1996 19:14, 19 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Since you edit the large table on 2010 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series, if you would like, will you update and fix the colors for this section? If you would like to see an example of how it should be. Here is a link Jimmie Johnson. He's been at Hendrick Motorsports his whole career, and his sponsor has stayed Dupont. If you don't know the final standing positions for him, I'll add that. If you haven't please join WP:NASCAR! Thanks, Nascar1996 00:18, 19 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

As the season approaches (and by an older conversation) are you still going to be able to update the large table weekly? If you can, would you rather have last years name blanked or what? Nascar1996 16:15, 17 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I do expect to be around updating the points at the end of the races for the vast majority of the season for the Sprint Cup, and on occasion for the Nationwide this year (barring any late-night Saturday races in Sprint Cup, which pitch them into 3-4am my time). I have no problems with others attempting to do the same at or around the same time as me (sometimes myself and User:Cs-wolves would routinely end up beating one or the other when it came to IndyCar last year), as long as they are aware of it, and don't try to make it their personal mission to specifically have the edit credit to them every week. TheChrisD ^{Rants•Edits} 16:54, 17 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, thanks. I was just wanting to make sure, and I didn't know that Cs-wolves may do it, too. We also had another editor doing it from last year, but they said they would be on a short wikibreak, and never returned. Nascar1996 16:59, 17 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Tip: Hello, I seen you are confused with the new points system. Whereever the finish is the amount of points they will get such as Clay Rogers finished third today (40 points) He led one lap, too. So add one point. Total=42 points. Hope you understand it better. Nascar1996 04:57, 19 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, I know exactly how the new points system is, 43-1 for 1st down to 43rd. What had me confused was how they had mentioned the "3 points for winning the race" bonus, and whether or not that bonus rolled down to the first driver who was actually eligible to score points, in this case Clay Rogers. Now that I've seen it doesn't, I'm confused as to why they put so much emphasis on telling the fans of the 43-1 system, seeing as how 1st place in essence always scores 46 points rather than 43, as the bonus doesn't roll down. TheChrisD ^{Rants•Edits} 11:25, 19 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, will you please review the changes to the Cup article (to the table you contribute to)? I made some changes to it. Please review it and see how you like it, thanks. Nascar1996 19:28, 19 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I really don't mind either way, it's just an option for a different style of showing the results, if you think it looks better another way, make it so. At the end, all I feel is that the ineligible drivers are still showcased underneath those that are eligible, and the extra row of headers helps to remember which race is which when browsing over the table as a whole. TheChrisD ^{Rants•Edits} 21:13, 19 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry about the edit conflict. I'll let you change both tables tomorrow. :/ Nascar1996 21:06, 19 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

It wasn't you, don't worry. Wolves had made a few changes to fix some of the race names, and changed the dashes, but since it affected the drivers table, it edit conflicted me after I'd filled it out. When it comes to Sprint Cup/Nationwide, I usually start to fill in the table as stuff happens, it tends to reduce the work a little bit by having the start-and-parks and those that are out for other reasons already filled in when their position isn't going to change at all. TheChrisD ^{Rants•Edits} 21:13, 19 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, and since all the schedules in the table was under the title, the one at the main bottom, just looked very weird. If it gets too long over the season we will probably have to replace in. Nascar1996 21:22, 19 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Article of the month – 2010 Ford 400 The 2010 Ford 400 was a NASCAR Sprint Cup Series stock car race that was held on November 21, 2010 at Homestead Miami Speedway in Homestead, Florida. The 267 lap race was the thirty-sixth in the 2010 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series, as well as the final race in the ten-race Chase for the Sprint Cup, which ends the season. The race was won by Carl Edwards for the Roush Fenway Racing team. Jimmie Johnson finished second, and Kevin Harvick clinched third. Pole position driver Kasey Kahne maintained his lead on the first lap to begin the race, as Edwards, who started in the second position on the grid, remained behind him. On the fourth lap, Edwards became the leader of the race. Hamlin, the points leader, before the race, spun sideways early in the race, resulting with damage to his splitter. Afterward on lap 73, Martin Truex, Jr. became the leader, but after the final pit stops Edwards was first. He maintained the lead to win the race, after leading 192 laps. There were ten cautions and 25 lead changes among nine different drivers throughout the course of the race. It was Edwards' second win in the 2010 season, with the other being only one week earlier during the Kobalt Tools 500. Jimmie Johnson won the Drivers' Championship, 39 points ahead of Denny Hamlin. Johnson's team owner, Rick Hendrick won the Owners' Championship, and Chevrolet won the Manufacturer Championship with 261 points, 44 points ahead of Toyota. A total of 67,000 people attended the race, while 5.605 million watched it on television. (More...)

Article of the month – 2010 Price Chopper 400, a recent GA The 2010 Price Chopper 400 was a NASCAR Sprint Cup Series stock car race that was held on October 3, 2010 at Kansas Speedway in Kansas City, Kansas. The 300 lap race was the twenty-ninth in the 2010 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series. The race was also the third event in the ten round Chase for the Sprint Cup competititon , which would concluded the 2010 season. Greg Biffle, of the Roush Fenway Racing team, won the race, with Jimmie Johnson finishing second and Kevin Harvick third. Pole position driver Kasey Kahne maintained his lead on the first lap to begin the race, as Jeff Gordon, who started in the third position on the grid, remained behind him. Twenty-three laps later Jeff Gordon became the leader of the race. After the final pit stops, Paul Menard became the leader of the race, but with less than fifty laps remaining, Biffle passed him. He maintained the first position to lead a total of sixty laps, and to win his second race of the season. There were five cautions and twenty lead changes among twelve different drivers throughout the course of the race. It was Greg Biffle's second win in the 2010 season, and the sixteenth of his career.

The race was won by Carl Edwards for the Roush Fenway Racing team. Jimmie Johnson finished second, and Kevin Harvick clinched third. Pole position driver Kasey Kahne maintained his lead on the first lap of the race. Edwards started in the second position on the grid, and became the leader of the race on the fourth lap. Shortly after a restart on lap 22, championship leader Denny Hamlin spun sideways, resulting with damage to his splitter. Martin Truex, Jr. took the lead on lap 73, but after the final pit stops Edwards was first. He maintained the lead to win the race, having led it for 192 laps. A total of 67,000 people attended the race, while 5.605 million watched it on television. There were ten cautions in the race, as well as twenty-five lead changes among nine different drivers.
