the mother edit

Swiss newspaper Blick told at 1 pm, that the mother died. But on 2 pm it's written (same article): injured in hospital. In german and french wikipedia, the mother is alive (at the moment). Please edit only, if you know facts about the destiny of the mother. Source: http://www.blick.ch/news/schweiz/artikel36004 (german) --80.238.133.43 12:38, 1 May 2006 (UTC)Reply

The IP user is talking about Corinne Rey-Bellet's mother, and according to the article you mention, Ms Rey-Bellet’s mother, Verena, was wounded and was said last night to be in a serious but stable condition. Gestumblindi 19:30, 3 May 2006 (UTC)Reply
some sources say the first name of the mother is Vreni, and some others say it is Verena . Which one is correct ?Hektor 05:29, 4 May 2006 (UTC)Reply
Both, in a way. Vreni is the Swiss-German diminutive of Verena. Many prefer to be called "Vreni", e.g. politician Vreni Müller-Hemmi ( http://www.mueller-hemmi.ch/ ) or former ski racer Vreni_Schneider, though some insist on "Verena". The officially recorded name is probably always Verena. Gestumblindi 23:24, 5 May 2006 (UTC)Reply

" Double win" on January 16th, 1999 edit

I would like to express that I did cit. the German Wikipedia (but I am knowing by myself). It is to add that there are races postponed, and held on the following day (or another day). In several cases, on such a following day there is scheduled a different race. But always if two different races were carried out on the same day there were different winners. On the male side, only Luc Alphand could achieve the same "singularity" in 1995 at Kitzbühel. --Skiscout (talk) 14:57, 11 January 2017 (UTC).Reply
