Talk:List of sports terms named after people

message: This seems to be the rhythmic gymnastics skill, because the originator was a rhythmic gymnast. I moved it into a separate section. If I was wrong, feel free to revert this. Cmapm 09:00, 17 April 2006 (UTC)

message: The linking seems weird. Do we want the moves named after people linked to the person's page. That seems reasonable, but a lot of them are linked to non existent pages and disambiguation pages. Is the goal to link the moves to the moves page? I think if the move does not have a page it is appropriate to link the athletes page MATThematical (talk) 20:08, 14 February 2010 (UTC)

message: (association) football is the only sport listed here that I know enough to comment on, but as far as that's concerned I'd say half of the list is nonsense.
I am, of course, not some be-all-and-end-all when it comes to something so subjective, so I'm not going to go ahead and remove without comment, but as a big fan there are enough terms here which mean nothing to me to set off alarm bells:
I have absolutely no idea what the "stanley matthews move" is. Same goes for the "jay jay okocha move", "juan riquelme move", and "ferenc puskas move". I've never heard anybody call an elastico a "ronaldinho move" or anything similar, and I've never heard of a "robinho pull back" or "rivelino step over and turn" - what separates those two from a "pull back" or "step over and turn"? (generic terms which don't tell a whole lot about what was done). I'm certainly aware of Kerlon's association with the seal dribble, but I'm not familiar with it being commonly *named after* him. No idea what an Aguanís is either - the description of "left foot dribble" explains nothing, and it doesn't even seem to be named after the guy anyway (not sure what the link is between Raul and 'Aguanis', I've certainly never heard him called that). the two italian ones are totally unknown to me, too.
The only entries that seem justified to me are those named for Panenka, Bosman, Cruijff, Makelele, Zidane, and Maradona. Even those last two I'd consider a bit of a stretch.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.176.40.127 (talk) 18:35, 31 July 2012 (UTC)

message: Copied from Talk:Mitsuo Tsukahara:
If, as the article says, a 'Tsukahara' is a "full-twisting double salto in the tuck position (with the full twist in the first salto)", and if "in many nations, it is customary to call a full-twisting double salto tumble or dismount a 'Tsukahara' on all apparatus, both for men and women", why is it not listed in the Artistic gymnastics section, as well as the Tsukahara (vault), which is a different thing AFAICS? --86.44.205.230 (talk) 23:13, 2 August 2012 (UTC)
