Gartner

edit

Wrong - "He was the first driver to be killed during a 24 Hours of Le Mans race since Jo Gartner was killed in 1986" - there was one in '97. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.249.226.68 (talk) 17:15, 22 June 2013 (UTC)Reply

The distinction is that Gartner was killed during the race. Sebastien Enjolras died during practice prior to the race. Theoretically both deaths should be mentioned. The359 (Talk) 17:18, 22 June 2013 (UTC)Reply
They are, unless someone has forced an edit over the top of mine (as has happened twice in the last 10 minutes).-- Cain Mosni (talk||contribs) 17:20, 22 June 2013 (UTC)Reply

Forcing edits

edit

Who ever is forcing edits and destroying mine, please have some manners and check! -- Cain Mosni (talk||contribs) 17:22, 22 June 2013 (UTC)Reply

And again! I don't believe this. -- Cain Mosni (talk||contribs) 17:25, 22 June 2013 (UTC)Reply
They've been checked. You made a new section that simply repeate the exact same thing stated in the sentence directly above. So I removed it as redundant. The article is currently a stub with three sentences of text total, no real need for a seperate section to repeat one sentence. The359 (Talk) 17:29, 22 June 2013 (UTC)Reply
And by removing it, you destroyed the base that I was working on to expand the article - thus wasting my time when the edit was rejected.-- Cain Mosni (talk||contribs) 17:31, 22 June 2013 (UTC)Reply
What exactly were you going to add to it beyond what we already know and is stated in the article? Surely you can make one large edit rather than making several small edits, yes? The359 (Talk) 17:33, 22 June 2013 (UTC)Reply

The death section is, at present, redundant. However, if you actually start expanding the article from the beginning of his career, and put in a good amount of content that way, then the death section may be included. Lukeno94 (tell Luke off here) 17:35, 22 June 2013 (UTC)Reply

Filmed death

edit

I have to question this category. What exactly is the criteria for it? The impact was not seen on television cameras, but was picked up by private team's in-car cameras? Further, Simonsen did not die on impact, he died later in the medical center, and that certainly was not filmed. So his death was not filmed, but the eventual cause of his death was somewhat filmed.
