replies: text: You are correct; thanks for mentioning it! I must have used an erroneous source or just made a typo/braino. Don't hesitate to call attention to, or correct, any further errors that might be buried in the tables! :-)  --Wernher 17:47, 12 Dec 2004 (UTC)

thread_title:  Points given... 

message: Why there are rows in the table through 1992/93 to 1995/96, when they only have a "N/A"? Does it mean it was contested but the top3 teams are not known? Sounds unbelievable, though. If not, then remove those rows. If yes, then some explanation is needed in the article. 82.141.95.133 (talk) 16:56, 27 February 2012 (UTC)

message: There reads: The women's World Cup seasons until 1986–87 were actually called the European Cup, although participation was open to biathletes of all nationalities. Until 1987-88, women raced on shorter tracks than they do today. The 1988-89 season was the first in which women raced on tracks of the same length that they do nowadays.
This article has the top3's for 1982-83 to 1987-88, but the season articles do not have them. So, the Women's World Cup 1987-88 is missing only because "women raced on shorter tracks than they do today"? Are the 5 European Cup results and the first World Cup season results somewhere? Apparently, not in Wikipedia, at least (which seems stupid). 109.240.161.42 (talk) 19:59, 27 March 2019 (UTC)
thread_title:  Women's cup first seasons 

message: It seems to me that there was no "cup" for the relay prior to the 2000-01 season. Yes, the relay was disputed for a while before that time, but there seems to be no "cup" as attributed by the IBU (at least I cannot find a source for it). It seems inappropriate in this case to give a winner for those competitions prior to the aforementioned season. We could by hand tabulate a score for those seasons, however this seems meaningless since no scoring system is given by the IBU. Therefore, I propose to remove the entries prior to that season. On the other hand, if a source can be found with either the “relay cup” scores for those seasons, or a scoring system then we can keep them.
Similarly, the sections for the team events do not make sense either. Yes, team events were run in those years, but there is no “team event cup” to speak of, we are simply attributing winners based on our arbitrary calculations. Those sections should be removed entirely. Auguel (talk) 19:06, 12 February 2021 (UTC)

Now it is 90p to the winner and points for the next places have also changed. Jleknes (talk) 12:12, 21 January 2023 (UTC)
