Hello, I am very sorry to report that Ronhjones passed away with his wife in a house fire last April. Since you were one of the top editors on his talk page per this tool , I thought I should let you know. Graham 87 12:51, 6 May 2020 (UTC)
A discussion is taking place to address the redirect Euro F3000 Brno . The discussion will occur at Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2020 May 28#Euro F3000 Brno until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion. Note that I've listed all of the 2004 Euro Formula 3000 Series race redirects. Also I've notified you not as creator but as the user who turned the existing articles into redirects.

Article Statistics
Table reflects values at 8:00 PM Eastern on July 30.Monthly goal: Find the backstory. All too often, pages about drivers, teams or tracks have only content about NASCAR's top three national series. To improve article quality, information about other series or events that those drivers, teams and tracks are involved in should be added, backed up by reliable sources.

Hi Cs-wolves. Just a quick note to say thanks for the great work you're doing with the F1 lap leader templates. Regards. DH85868993 (talk ) 10:48, 5 August 2020 (UTC)
Hi Cs-wolves. I've noticed you have been adding lap charts to F1 race articles lately and also editing the templates. I don't have the knowhow to do this myself but if you have the time could you make a slight change to the lap chart for 1953 French Grand Prix ? For Fangio laps 55-56 and Mike Hawthorn lap 54 the text overlaps a bit making it look rather cluttered (well, there were a lot of lead changes that race...). Thanks.

Article Statistics
Table reflects values at 7:00 PM Eastern on August 31.Monthly goal: Focus on the sources. In the thick of Silly Season, it is easy for random people to make a website, perpetuate a rumor, and have that be picked up here. Two sites that have proven to be big on rumors before, and sometimes eating it in a big way, are Beyond the Flag and TobyChristie.com. Please use other sources, such as NASCAR.com, Jayski.com, or team/driver releases as citations in articles. Additionally, there has been a decline in the quality of the new work being generated by the project. New content, related to silly season or not, should always be reliably sourced so we can avoid the ugly {{refimprove}} tags at the top of articles.
