Lead
editThe lead does not meet the guidelines as stated in Wikipedia:WikiProject Boxing/MOSGuidelines:
General guidelines
Notable wins or opponents should not be included in the lead section, as that does not represent a concise overview of the article; it does not present a neutral point of view; and there is no objective way to determine what makes a victory notable. If it is believed that a single notable victory should be added for a specific boxer, discuss it first on the article's talk page or on the talk page of this WikiProject to determine by consensus whether or not that information should go in the lead section.
Rankings
Pound for pound or weight class rankings by The Ring magazine, the Transnational Boxing Rankings Board, ESPN and BoxRec may be included if a boxer has been ranked inside the top ten at any point in their career. Include at least a year when this occurred, with sources from the official websites.
The fights/fighters are not notable and should not be in the lead section; Rankings from sanctioning bodies should not be included in the lead section; The reference provided for the BoxRec ranking makes absolutely no mention of a BoxRec ranking. It simply states "World ranked number 1, Canadian Claire Hafner", ranked by who? The "ABO" title is not recognised by any major boxing organisation and has only been in existence since 2014, same goes for the "UNBC" title, which doesn’t even have an official website, let alone national or international recognition. They’re not worthy of a mention. If we added every single petty title won or contested in a boxer's professional record table, they would be filled with pointless, inconsequential nonsense.
As per the Wikipedia page "Date format by country", America use the M/D/Y format and the most common form in Canadian English is also M/D/Y. This page is for an American born Canadian, and should use the M/D/Y format, not D/M/Y as used in your native country. You created this page, but this page does not belong to you.
