James Crisp[edit]

  • That infobox shows I made a good choice in not including medals for my articles on Paralympians. Holy...
Hook: Short enough, interesting. I don't see "every style" here. I see four.
Article: New enough, long enough, well-referenced, no close paraphrasing.
Summary: Issue with hook fact. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 09:28, 2 September 2012 (UTC)
From the reference: "He has received a fistful of medals at every single IPC European Championship and IPC World Championship he has attended, in events of every stroke and distances from 100m-400m..." [1]
To my knowledge there are only four competitive swimming strokes, but the swimming stroke article does not at the moment discuss this. violet/riga [talk] 10:12, 2 September 2012 (UTC)
And re: the medals in the infobox... I decided to include just the world events - add in the European and British and it would be an act of endurance to scroll to the bottom of the page! violet/riga [talk] 10:19, 2 September 2012 (UTC)
  • To be clearer, it does not say it in the article. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 10:21, 2 September 2012 (UTC)
  • It says "has won medals in all the different competitive swimming strokes". violet/riga [talk] 10:27, 2 September 2012 (UTC)
Alright, everything's peachy. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 10:33, 2 September 2012 (UTC)
