Status for Combined this season

According to this FIS document (Ch 13. Awards), there will be a "Winner of the Super Combined World Cup" and a prize will be awarded. What is correct?? Fomalhaut76 (talk) 10:42, 12 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Flagcruft

Colleagues, I wonder why flags appear as the sole signifier of countries. I have no idea which countires most of those flags represent. AND I need sunglasses to read the table—the rafts of jangling colours are in the end not all that pretty, if that's what the intention was. I believe the flags should be replaced with the country-names in all cases. Tony (talk) 01:56, 20 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Ladies -> Women

A brief discussion here has agreed that "women" should be used consistently across all Wiki-pages concerning FIS competitions. Therefore I changed ever in-text mention of "ladies" to "women". Judith Sunrise (talk) 16:56, 25 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
