Stuff
Didn't see it mentioned, so I will: in the course of 6 TdF wins, Lance won 20 solo stages. (I heard that someplace or other...) Trekphiler 22:37, 21 December 2005 (UTC)

Request for Comment
During a dispute over the content of the 'Allegations of drug use' section, an anonymous editor created a Lance Armstrong/proposal article in an attempt to settle the argument. The dispute has died down, but the 'proposal' article remains, and I'm not sure what to do about it. I have not tagged these two articles for merging yet because I want to hear other viewpoints first.
For purposes of this discussion, 'original entry' refers to Lance Armstrong and 'proposal' refers to Lance Armstrong/proposal.
Options:
- Delete the proposal without modifying the original entry at all.
- Rename the proposal as the main article and delete the original entry.
- Merge the two by making the 'allegations' section of the original entry into a new article named 'Allegations of drug use against Lance Armstrong', linking that article to the original entry, then moving the 'allegations' section of the proposal into the original entry as its new 'allegations' section.
- Merge the two articles in some other fashion.
- Start all over from scratch and delete the proposal completely.
I look forward to hearing your comments. Any and all suggestions are welcome. ddlamb 23:07, 6 January 2006 (UTC)
- The article had 4 edits:
- 12 November 2005 Mike Selinker m (cleaning up Category:Cyclists)
- 7 September 2005 Gero (→Allegations of drug use)
- 26 August 2005 Warofdreams m (Lance Armstrong 2 moved to Lance Armstrong/proposal)
- 26 August 2005 69.231.50.25 (new proposed page)
Given the lack of recent activity, I would assume that any relevant material has been merged and nominate the 'proposal' article for deletion. There seems no justification for a breakaway article.--A Y Arktos 01:25, 8 January 2006 (UTC)
- Actually I think the proposed artical looks better, however, I don't think that working it a seperate artical is going to work in this case...I'm not going to touch the controversy section myself (I can't spend all my time on wikipedia), but if you think that it's better then go for it... --T-rex 06:07, 10 January 2006 (UTC)
As suggested, I have merged the two 'Allegations of drug use' sections' and did not create a separate 'allegations of 2005' entry. Thanks everyone! - ddlamb 05:30, 5 February 2006 (UTC)
