#Colin mcrae rally 09 archive#
I have just added archive links to one external link on Colin McRae. Some Scottish people get so wound up about stuff like this, nobody else really cares.- 213.107.105.51 ( talk) 17:41, 26 July 2012 (UTC) External links modified Looking through the history it appears the whole info box was deleted for a while, then someone finally reinstated it using 'Scottish' and I guess everybody was sick of messing with it. That's evidently just the way it's going to have to be with this particular article. there you have it, after me and others who agreed with me gave up on the whole thing, it ended up being Scottish. I agree with you completely, but there was a huge edit war going on for a while after he died, and people would be constantly insisting on the nationality being Scottish for reasons I found illogical, so. Strikes me as odd to make an exception for Colin beardybloke ( talk) 20:33, 5 August 2011 (UTC)
Isnt it a bit bizarre that his nationality in the WRC infobox is Scottish? I realise that those of a nationalist persuasion get a bit heated under the collar about this sort of thing, but I thought the accepted norm for sports people (especially when using the infobox of the sport in question) was to use the nationality that they competed under? (eg Andy Murray: British, Dario Franchitti: British, David Coulthard: British, Paul DiResta: British and the same is true for a load of english sportspeople: Jenson Button, Lewis Hamilton, Martin Brundle, Tim Henman).

For you that is unfamiliar with Colin's crest, it's a jump during the Swedish Rally made famous by Colin due to his spectacular long jumps, and which is now a memorial trophy given to the driver who makes the longest jump. I think "Colin's crest" and the associated trophy should be mentioned in the article, but I'm not really sure under which section it would fit. 9 Family's doubt about investigation findings.8 Why doesn't this article contain findings from the inquiry into the helicopter crash.This article has been rated as High-importance on the project's importance scale.
