The full entry list

[edit]

I have repeatedly had to undo the full entry list in this article. I have done this for three reasons:

1) This is a round of the World Championship. Therefore, only teams and drivers competing in the World Championships should be included. Local drivers and drivers competing in the national championships should not be included.

2) For consitency with other articles. You will note that other rally articles only contain selected entries from the entry list, specifically those competing in the World Championships. Local drivers and drivers competing in the national championships are not included on those pages, so they should not be included here.

3) The article is currently ~27,000kB in length. The full entry list makes the article over 70,000kB, nearly three times as long as it was or should be. Since the bulk of this additional content is, as demonstrated, totally and completely unnecessary, it should be removed.

Please do not restore that content without achieving a consensus here first. Prisonermonkeys (talk) 12:33, 18 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

1) Your argument is invalid, the privateers are part of the World Rally Championship (= they can score WRC points) but usually they aren't very notable. So IMO they can be included in article if they are notable enough. For example Mathieu Arzeno scored points in 2012 Rallye Deutschland but you wouldn't have included him in the entry list of the article. Anti-lag (talk) 12:49, 18 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Just because they can score, doesn't mean they actually did score. Since they didn't score, there is no sense in including them. Prisonermonkeys (talk) 12:56, 18 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Event Standings

[edit]

You've explaining about the full entry list, but you also removed the special stages standings, and the championship standings, that all the WRC events articles has. And is this amount of information that makes 70,000 kB not only the full entry list. The diference between the full entry list and the "noitable list" is only about 15 rows . These 15 teams participate in this event of WRC. Is such a problem being listed there? For now I leave them before, but do not remove the other content without achieving a consensus here first.
