Talk:X Games

message: Does anyone know why there's not an individual article for each X Games?  Was this intentional?  Has just no one ever made one (Except for X Games VIII)?  Can I just not find them?  -- Natalya 01:39, 4 August 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Separate articles for each games 

message: I'm trying to fill out the defunct sport category and there's one thing I'm uncertain about.  I vaguely remember watching '97 WinterX and there being a super-modified shovel racing event, something involving taking a manure shovel and building an aerodynamic body around it (you sat in the shovel and it touched the ground) and racing them dual down the BMX speed course.  However, my memory's rusty and I can't find any references to the '97 games on expn.  This is the only event I believe I'm missing.--Torlek 21:36, 6 August 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Defunct sport help 

message: We should be able to add information about individuals that are relevant within the industry. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Chewycreation (talk • contribs) 
:Perhaps we could add a section for notable competitors, either in a separate section or under each sport.  Remember, though, there might already be articles about them, in which case all that would need to be done would be to link to them.  If you're considereing writing an article about someone who doesn't have one, be sure to make sure they are notable as prescribed by Wikipedia's notability guidelines. -- Natalya 13:26, 8 January 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Adding athletes 

message: Hey guys. Im working on the X computer game series wiki stuff. I dont want to intrude on your article so I will make this a request. Could you add a disambiguation link for the 'X Computer Game Series' which links to X (computer game series). Im not sure of Wikipedias policy on disambiguations in articles. It can just be a little confusing for people searching for the computer game using 'X Game'. I guess they could use 'X Computer game' which could get them where they need to go. Its here for discussion obviously. Cheers, Xenon_Slayer —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Xenon Slayer (talk • contribs) 03:13, 27 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: It makes sense to have a disambiguation link for that; I'll take care of it, thanks for pointing it out. -- Natalya 01:38, 29 January 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  The X Computer Game Series 

message: What happened to Vert Best Trick? Was the event just canceled this year or was it permanently removed from the X Games?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.178.91.225  (talk)  9 August 2007 
:Good question. Vert Best Trick happened at X Games 16, but I didn't see it this year.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jaredstein (talk • contribs) 19:59, 31 July 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Skateboard Vert Best Trick at X Games 13 

message: Anyone else want to help put together an article on the current Winter X Games?  There are individual articles for all the summer ones, so it's the next logical step in article development and it's certainly very topical.  I'm not sure I've got the time to devote to fully delving into it now, but I thought this would be a good place to see if we could get a good article together and maybe get a DYK out of it before the memory of the event fades. matt91486 (talk) 06:06, 26 January 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Winter X Games 12

message: Most of this article is focusing on the Winter X Games.  Is this a bias? Dalekusa (talk) 18:51, 11 April 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Biased in favor of Winter X Games? 

message: The article says Bob Burnquist has the highest score of a 98 in '01 but Bucky Lasek got a 98.50 in '00.
:So change it. --Mr. Stein (talk)  —Preceding undated comment added 20:02, 31 July 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Skateboard Vert highest score 

message: Given this is an encyclopedia article, I was hoping for a bit more info on the founding the X Games, the organization of extreme sports in the early nineties, etc.  Anyone out there knowledgeable on the subject?  --Sephiroth9611 (talk) 15:25, 22 August 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  History and founding 

message: I changed the intro somewhat, to clarify that the X Games, contrary to most sports competitions, aren't arranged by any sports body (like the Olympics for instance), but is a purely commercial venture started by a TV broadcaster in order to generate more revenue. This may be known in the US, but most people in the rest of the world probably don't know it. Thomas Blomberg (talk) 11:52, 28 August 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Made for and owned by a broadcaster 

message: I sought out this page looking to see what sports are part of the winter and summer X-games.    Someone interested in promoting them might be interested in including such a section within this topic.  Specifically, I'm trying to find out if/when skydiving events were part of the games.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.47.149.212 (talk) 16:51, 9 October 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  List of Events lacking 

message: In January 2009, someone put a  banner on the history section, without making a comment in the talk page about what should be changed.  Broadly speaking, it seems to meet Wikipedia standards for a list, and is probably not the priority for improving this article.  Therefore I removed the banner. 
However, everything can be improved.  For example, the section could do with an introduction in prose, as well as replacing the hyphens with dashes.

thread_title:  History section cleanup 

message: Don't we have a single photo of an X Games skater, boarder or rider? I can't believe that the Commons doesn't even have Cat:X Games. Where are our American extreme sports fans? --NaBUru38 (talk) 23:35, 4 November 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Because of some editors who like to toy with or remove photos that other editors have not posted photos. One editor removed a photo because he think it is "recent". Oh brother! Ucla90024 (talk) 16:33, 4 July 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Photos 

message: * The scheduling of the new format of the X Games and the order of the competitions are important to the article's "Global expansion" on the changes made this year. Removal of the information without a reason makes no sense. Ucla90024 (talk) 16:20, 30 June 2012 (UTC)
thread_title: New global format

message: "The Ior spectators, athlete demos, climbing walls, video game experiences, and the chance to try new and upcoming products that are presented by sponsors. This area exists at both the X Games and Winter X Games."
This seems to be the result of an editing error. Anyone know what the original paragraph said?  --Eamonnca1 TALK 22:29, 28 August 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Typo? 

message: Saw the ESPN piece on Nyjah Huston this morning, so I went to look at how he's doing this year, but found that the medals he's won in X Games Barcelona and Brazil are just links to X Games XIX which hasn't happened yet.  I'm not exactly sure what the structure is of these multi-location events; are X Games Barcelona, Brazil, and Munich considered to be under the umbrella of the 19th Summer X Games?  Are they standalone vents that should have their own articles? Tarc (talk) 19:20, 29 June 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  X Games XIX is pretty sparse 

message: An article on the X Games held in Munich in 2013 would be really nice, compare to X Games Los Angeles 2013. Cheers! Horst-schlaemma (talk) 22:56, 20 January 2014 (UTC)
thread_title:  [[X Games Munich 2013]] 

message: I was reading some things about that X Games and found that this year's winter games was the first time ESPN used drones to get an arial view. With all the sporting events ESPN covers, I thought it was pretty cool that they chose X Games as a trial for drone coverage. Cieraasu (talk) 04:20, 17 April 2015 (UTC)
