change: said he "was going to cause a massive accident" to said he was "going to cause a massive accident" -> the reason for that change is that raikonnen did not say was, he said "he is" so it is misquoting to add the "was" into the brackets Grutzeckigor (talk) 12:45, 26 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I need to add at the end of the page, because the talk section states that Max Verstahhpen is a top importance in Formula One. StickminBruv (talk) 01:38, 12 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

 Not done: it's not clear what changes you want to be made. Please mention the specific changes in a "change X to Y" format and provide a reliable source if appropriate. Awhellnawr123214 (talk) 04:39, 12 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry for the long reply, but I need to add the [[Category:Top-importance Formula One articles]] to the end of the page. (if I'm correct) StickminBruv (talk) 15:44, 30 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@StickminBruv: Article importance categories go on the talk page, not the article. This talk page is already in the category (it is added by the WikiProject template); the category doesn't need to be added to the article. DH85868993 (talk) 09:45, 31 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Oh okay, my bad. I think I have to request it there, then. StickminBruv (talk) 13:01, 31 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@StickminBruv: No, you don't need to request it anywhere. This talk page is already in the category. The article doesn't need to put into the category. DH85868993 (talk) 14:27, 31 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Ohh, I get it now. It's because the people are listed by their last name, not by their first in the Category: thing. StickminBruv (talk) 14:32, 31 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Would like to make a note about his nationality being stated as "Belgian and Dutch" in the opening. For all other multi-national drivers (e.g. Albon, Norris, Ricciardo), the nationality they race under is universally stated first. Just seems like a certain group of fans trying to deride his identity as a Dutchman, even if he has claimed both in the past. Mb2437 (talk) 12:23, 6 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Please refrain from issuing accusations of bad faith. The order of his nationalities in the lead has nothing to do with importance. This was discussed in the past and this was retained. Tvx1 14:34, 6 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

My concern is that the point of his nationality is being used as ammunition for abuse across social media, the retaining of this could serve to exacerbate that. The precedent elsewhere should make it clear cut that it's standard to state A before B. Mb2437 (talk) 16:00, 6 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
