Morbid

This article is somewhat morbid. Not that there's anything wrong with that. Salad Days 19:56, 30 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Got a reliable source

I got a book as a birthday gift and remembered that there had been on AfD on this topic. There are substantial references to several notable deaths at Daytona's old beach course and at the post-1959 superspeedway, and I'll add them to this article and to the Daytona Beach Road Course article. If we merge it back into the DIS article, these are some of the most notable (and documented) ones that might be most worth keeping in the parent article. Dale Earnhardt of course, Frank Lockhart, Friday Hassler (I was there for that one), and others. Barno 04:41, 19 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Done for this list and the beach-course article. Surprised to see nothing on Hassler in the Hinton book's index. Barno 05:04, 19 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

See my comments about Google "Friday Hassler" on Wikipedia talk:WikiProject NASCAR, under "List of Daytona Intl Spwy fatalities". Adding more context to the text around the link to the deaths list. Barno 02:51, 20 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I used a reference book that I have, plus a Time magazine article to reference everything before Earnhardt's death. Royalbroil^T : C 05:36, 20 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Merge request

The Daytona article has enough in it already. This list is a logical breakout of the article that should not be merged, but kept as a separate list. The list does need cleanup, but cleanup is not a reason to do a merge. It limits the ability to expand this article. Royalbroil^T : C 05:05, 20 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Cleanup tag

Is there anything left to do before removing the cleanup tag? It is extremely well sourced by solid duplicate secondary sources, complete, and the introduction is rewritten. Royalbroil^T : C 06:00, 20 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hearing no objection and seeing reason to agree, I support removal of the cleanup tag. I just read Wikipedia:Subpages and I see that this content should not be a subpage of the Speedway's article. I support removal of the merge tag, with no page move and the improved context descriptions on both sides of the link between the Speedway's article and this list page. The concerns that caused the AfD nomination and "merge" add-on to the AfD result have been addressed. Barno 01:30, 27 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Table

The list format appears sloppy. Although the "cleanup" tag is no longer needed, cleanup itself should be in order to make the article appear more professional. Doctorindy (talk) 17:28, 11 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I'm wondering why only half the list is in the table myself. —C.Fred (talk) 01:01, 9 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Unrelated links

Why do several of these names link to unrelated articles with the same name? It would be better to remove these links. 15:30 17 October 2008 (CET) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 91.65.234.37 (talk) 13:37, 17 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
