Talk:1960 Tour de France

message: The winner of the 19th stage in this article used to be Rolf Graf. Recently, it was changed into Nencini, with the edit note
 Nencini won the final ITT, not Graf. This is a confusion with 1959 - Graf won the 19th stage in 1959, and his name has been copied over to 1960, it would seem.
While Graf indeed won the 19th stage in 1959, sources indicate that he also won the 19th stage in 1960: memoire du cyclisme. The Tour de France database indeed lists Nencini as winner, but they list him as winner of ten stages in a row, and most likely confused 'stage win' with 'leading general classification'. Newspapers from 1960 also clearly listed Graf as winner: . For this reason I reverted the change, so now the article lists Graf as winner of the 19th stage. --EdgeNavidad (Talk · Contribs) 16:04, 10 August 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: There is no need to apologize for an attempt to improve Wikipedia. You did everything the right way: you saw that some information on Wikipedia did not agree to information on the official Tour database, so you corrected the information on Wikipedia, even with an edit note that explains why you did it. That's perfect. No one  can blame you that the Tour database is filled with mistakes. Unless by a ridiculous coincedence you work for the Tour de France organisation and are responsible for this database. ;)--EdgeNavidad (Talk · Contribs) 06:56, 11 August 2012 (UTC)

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: I can appreciate trying to make sure information is verified and that no nonsense is included in an article but I was under the impression that if information about a rider was already cited within that writers article it is not necessary to cite it again. Perhaps I am mistaken about this but I don't think that I am.... If it is necessary to add the link to the rider where the information is mentioned then I will do that but there is also the thing about once a link is provided to a rider early in an article it is not necessary to do so again?

replies: text: Regardless of what is linked in the rider's article, it does not say that anyone (or no-one, as you have written) thought he was dead, that the drop was fifty feet (or should be reported in a different set of units than used in the rest of the article), or that any conclusion was drawn from his lack of vocalisation. No verification that Nencini was one of the best discenders, so it should be qualified as a consideration: he was 4th at the top of the col, so was not "making the pace".  Stick to facts, and encyclopaedic tone, not your own interpretation in retelling anecdotes: that is why this is Wikipedia, not Wikistoryteller. Kevin McE (talk) 13:49, 11 July 2020 (UTC)
