message: I asked myself, if all the external links are ok, especially the ones, that are linked to the labels? Isn't it only a step away from a commercial amazon link, since you can purchase the linked item on the labels web site? One may think to support the smaller labels or make it easy for the reader to find them on the web. But I don't think, that it should be a task for wikipedia.

Talk:Anthony Clarke (judoka)

message: I am going to remove these references.  Although Tony took part in the Australian National Judo Championships on a number of occasions, he never won.  In 1998, the u/90 kg was won by Gavin Kelly and, in 1999, it was Chris Palmer.  Peter phelps (talk) 03:56, 21 July 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: That looks fair enough—unfortunately the ref I added in 2007 is now a dead link. Perhaps the detail originally came from his webpage. a 2000 govt press release indicates he had the top ranking in Australia, rather than winning the national event. This is sort of backed up by this ABC story. this one states that in 1998 he was the "third best player" and in the world top ten. this news story claims that he "is a five-time national champion for his weight division" but I can't tell if they are talking about a ranking or single event. this news article has him as "national champion". I can see a release here that he got to 4dan as well. There is certainly some form of acknowledged status in 98/99 but exactly what is confused by journalistic inexactness. Personally I just remember being at the wrong end of his Seoi nage during randori....never got good enough to face him in competition. - Peripitus (Talk) 06:26, 21 July 2009 (UTC)

Their Patreon, which is still used for the monetization of server slots continues to refer to it as both Cfx.re and The CitizenFX Collective. 
The Take Two investor called had Strauss refer to it as "CitizenFX".
While I will agree Cfx.re seems to be the preferred name (given its extensive usage), to me it seems to just be that; preference, not the exclusive name.

::Early contact between Europeans and Aborigines in the NSW Southern Highlands was made by the French explorer, Francis Barrallier, a young man with a lot of heart and courage (3). In 1802, his party moved through "The Cowpastures" southwest of Sydney, through the Nattai to the Wollondilly River and up to the heights above where Yerranderie now stands.
::Along the way he met and befriended the Gundungara people.
::" The place where I decided to spend the night was the territory of the mountaineer Bungin, he wrote in his Journal. " He gave proof of his friendship and gratefulness for my good treatment by building a hut for me and I was thankful of his kind attention.
