Talk:List of career achievements by Wayne Gretzky

message: This was a great idea to lighten the Wayne Gretzky article, but  the Records stuff from that article are still there.
I suggest expanding this article, with anything about records from the main Gretzky article, and cutting it from the main article.  Also, we should consider moving his career stats to this page too.

message: I have thought about moving the Gretzky's stats to this page, but i realised that for all other NHL players, their stats are on their main page. By taking Gretzky's stats off the Wayne Gretzky page, it wouldn't be consistant with the rest of wikipedia. Also, my intention with this page was to list records, official and unofficial. Even though most of his stats are in fact records, they are not a list of records. I wanted the gretzky page to be a write up of his highlights and acheivements while the list of records is just that. a list of records.
as for the gretzky's records still on the gretzky page...I think it is important to summarise his records on the main page with the most impressive (or important) records. That summary could be shortened, though. As for the 'amazing stats and facts' section, that should be left on the main page because it isn't a list of records.
One other thing. i have been planning, but haven't started yet, to make a list of all of his 'milestone' records and putting it onto this page.
Let me know some more of your thoughts and together we can make the best page possible.

:I think that his career stats block should also have a WHA totals line and an overall totals line, just to show of more big numbers, which is the point of this pagew. WHPratt (talk) 01:43, 3 May 2012 (UTC)

message: While he retired with Most career All-Star Game assists (12) as a record, since then Bourque has gotten to 13, and Messier got to 14.
So while he may have edged past Lemieux for career points per game, he really 'only' has 61 records, even if one of them is new.--MJR 14:35, 14 Jun 2005 (UTC)
thread_title:  61 records, actually 

message: # Most goals: 894 in 1,485 games
# Most goals, including playoffs: 1,016 in 1,962 regular season and 260 playoff games
How is it that when playoffs are included Gretzky scored 122 more goals and played 477 more games in the regular season? According to the page about wayne gretzky it says he played in 1487 regular season NHL games and 1694 games with seasons in minor leagues included, scoring a total of 1073 goals in the NHL and minor leagues in the regular season. He had 208 NHL playoff goals and 258 playoff goals with the minor leagues included.  One of the two pages is  wrong, someone who knows should change one of them.

message: Fastest & Youngest 2050 Points (882 games), (29 years, 341 days)
Is there a reason 2050 was added in, where every other milestone was in 100 increments?  SquashEngineer (talk) 19:00, 14 November 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: I looked through the edit history of this article. It looks like back in December of 2015 an IP added that line. I looked further back and realised ten years ago, it didn't have it in every 100 increments, it simply said he's the only player to score 2000 points. I think we should go back to that. I mean, do we really need 2100, 2200, 2300, etc when there is no one else? Masterhatch (talk) 20:06, 14 November 2022 (UTC)
thread_title: (more) Gretzky's Unofficial Records

message: The article states that Gretzky scored 15 career regular-season assists but NHL.com has 13. Also, the number of players who have passed him appears to be many. Is there any source for 15 career regular-season assists? Sxg169 (talk) 16:38, 7 March 2023 (UTC)
