Talk:Michael Chang

message: Just a personal comment on this guy - he's very cool.  I attend Biola University, which is the location of Talbot School of Theology, where he's attending.  He was sitting in on my New Testament class, and not a lot of us knew who he was.  He got up at the end of the semester and did a bit of a speech (at the invitation of the professor) of meaning in life - how all the money he got, etc, means nothing in the long run basically.  Also, he helped hand back our graded tests all semester  :)  :) Also, I don't think he's 5'9 tall, but shorter..  I could be wrong though --FranksValli 07:11, 17 November 2005 (UTC)

message: The article mentions twice that Chang was unseeded when he won Roland Garros in 1989, but tenniscorner.net has him as the no. 15 ranked player. And this article from usatoday.com states that Gaston Gaudio, Mats Wilander and Gustavo Kuerten are the only unseeded Roland Garros men's champs in the Open era - so I'm gonna edit the article based on these two sources.

thread_title: Nationality in the lead sentence per [[wp:mosbio]]

message: There is a long, ongoing discussion at WP:Tennis about the tournament tables found in tennis articles on English-language Wikipedia (e.g., this type of table). The discussion is about whether the "official sponsored name" of a tournament - such as Pacific Life Open - or another tournament name without the sponsor - such as Indian Wells Masters - must be used in those articles. Please join the discussion here. Thanks.  Tennis expert (talk) 09:31, 4 September 2008 (UTC)

message: "Utilizing tremendous speed and strong determination, Chang..."  Really?  This seems very POV.  Preobrazhenskiy (talk) 05:13, 6 May 2009 (UTC)

message: A substantial part of the "1989 French Open match vs Ivan Lendl" is word-for-word identical to the source at . There are two potential problems, depending on whether the section is a Copy & Paste from the source, or the source is copy-pasted from Wikipedia. The former could be a copyright violation. The problem with the latter would be that the copy-pasted text from the section is used as a reference. Which of course would mean that the section is used as its own source, in other words, it is not verifiable. So in either case, this has to be fixed.—J. M. (talk) 19:56, 10 January 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: I've removed the close paraphrase tag as I'm reasonably certain they've copied from us, not the other way around.  The text was introduced to wikipedia in January 2005 and has evolved since.  Waybackmachine has no record prior to December 2006 and archived versions of the website suggest that the page didn't exist in January 2005.  As such I think it's very likely a backward copy.  That does of course still leave the source problem to be fixed. Dpmuk (talk) 20:25, 29 May 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: So I'm removing the fake reference, and an actual reference should be found and added.—J. M. (talk) 00:39, 30 May 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Lendl match - copyright violation? 

message: His father is from Chaozhou, and his mother was born in India (working for the Chinese government), yet the Taiwanese are trying to claim them.  Back in that era, the Legislative Yuan very rarely used Taiwanese people, and 99% of the Legislative Yuan were mainlanders. Taiwan wasn't returned to China until after world war 2. So how many Taiwanese would have been sent to India by the Legislative Yuan? Taiwanese is usually used to refer to those from a Hokkien background, which the Chang, and Tungs were not.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by R3432432 (talk • contribs) 13:37, 15 October 2013 (UTC)
