Talk:List of career achievements by Roger Federer

message: I suggest that this article is merged with the records article. What do you think?--HJensen, talk 17:31, 18 September 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: It's a definite idea, since thie article is mostly taking up space on the server. The two are similar enough that this could be merged wholly successfully. --tennisman 16:08, 31 October 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Manual numbering 

message: Federer has now been ranked in the top 2 in the world continuously for 6 years. Is that a record? Tomaths (talk) 00:39, 17 November 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: Record?

message: I would like to see a section of all his tourney wins and finals, orgonized by date, color coded by signifigance, like you would get for most other tennis players. This format is pretty messy.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.76.153.121 (talk) 21:06, 11 September 2010 (UTC)
thread_title: Formatting

message: Sorry, there is a mistake, Lendl also has 6 winning steaks of 20 matches or more, 1 in 81, 1 in 82, 2 in 85, 1 in 86 and 1 in 90. He also has 7 winning streaks of 19 matches or more including a 19 winning streak in 89.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.96.227.90 (talk) 10:07, 5 December 2010 (UTC)
thread_title: Winning streak

message: Number 1 says he has won 16 Grand Slam titles, which is a valid record, but then number 3 says he is the first male player to win more than 14 grand slams. This isn't a record, it's merely a result of number 1. All it's doing is artificially inflating his achievements (which isn't even necessary, to be honest).--CombustionMan1 (talk) 09:48, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Redundant record in Singles Championships? 

message: Shouldn't we include Federer's "popularity/humanitarian-award" achievements? Technically it is unclear whether these are "career" achievements, but I suspect to be regarded the best ever, just raw statistical greatness is never enough. He won the Fans' Favorite Award a record nine consecutive times (2003–2011) and the Stefan Edberg Sportsmanship Award (voted for by the players) a record seven times (2004–2009, 2011). He won the Arthur Ashe Humanitarian of the Year Award in 2006. In 2011, he was voted the second most trusted and respected person in the world, second only to Nelson Mandela.

thread_title:  Non-tennis achievements by Federer 

message: many of the so called achievements make their reference to tennis warehouse- an online fan chat system. and the records are being added here tons after tons based on it. neither it is verified nor it is reliable. a fan chat room! c'mon. this article is full of lies.108.78.177.132 (talk) 04:58, 13 September 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: You credibility has been damaged, because you have been unable to point out a `lie' so far, and are not open to constructive discussion and arguments. Feel free to improve citations, though. Gap9551 (talk) 10:48, 13 September 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Reference full of lies and unverified stats 

message: I'm 99% sure Federer was the first person in history to win his first 4 grand slam final appearances (and 5, 6, and 7 too). My source is 10:16 in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ge17unv-XrI&feature=player_detailpage#t=616s. Can anyone confirm? If so it should be added to the article. 94.208.4.229 (talk) 22:34, 23 December 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: Hi, good that you weren't 100% sure. A few other players won their first 7 before Federer did. See #8 in Grand Slam records -- Singles championships. Gap9551 (talk) 11:44, 24 December 2012 (UTC)

thread_title: Winning the first n grand slam finals

message: Female records should not be part of this section.  The men are far superior to the women and there is a reason they have separate competitions.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2.31.48.6 (talk) 19:49, 13 November 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  Female records 

message: I have redone his page by adding his records in tables to make it more structured but there is still a lot of information which is unnecessary and needs to be removed. Can someone remove it or will it stay there as many of the listed records are not actually records.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Zain786909 (talk • contribs) 20:42, 3 November 2015 (UTC)

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: This article states that Federer is "widely viewed" as the greatest grass court player of all time, comparing his Wimbledon results to other players from tennis history's Wimbledon results. However, I will point out that a number of well-known men have actually won more grand slam titles on grass than Federer. Roy Emerson (10), Bill Tilden (10), Rod Laver (9) all collected more grand slam titles on grass than Federer. Others, like Fred Perry, have matched Federer's number as well.

thread_title:  All time greatest on grass 

message: Federer has now extended his run of reaching at least one Grand Slam semi-final in consecutive years to 15 years. Is this worth noting here, or is this too specific a record? Carcharoth (talk) 15:13, 27 January 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: Sounds worth it to me. Fyunck(click) (talk) 23:05, 27 January 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: OK. So how does that sort of thing get sourced? Carcharoth (talk) 20:39, 28 January 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: It's probably a record, but I don't know where to find a reliable source. Gap9551 (talk) 18:41, 11 February 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: Noting here that this 'record' got extended to 16 years at the 2018 Australian Open (this was noted in the article here and tweaked here), and 17 years at the 2019 French Open (updated here). Carcharoth (talk) 13:32, 6 June 2019 (UTC)
