Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Motorsport

An editor has proposed adding "honorific" parameters to Template:Infobox racing driver. Interested editors are welcome to contribute to the existing discussion. DH85868993 (talk) 22:53, 28 February 2026 (UTC)

A lot of articles related to Indian motorsport seem to have been created recently (Goa Aces JA Racing, Speed Demons Delhi, Chennai Turbo Riders, Hyderabad Blackbirds, Kichcha's Kings Bengaluru and Goa Street Circuit) that have been written as advertising pieces, possibly with reliance on AI, and very dubious quality of sourcing. Mass cleanup or deletion may be required as well as warnings on Wikipedia policy for the editors involved. ~2026-14636-96 (talk) 02:25, 8 March 2026 (UTC)

Hi, I'm new to the vocabulary and names in the area. I started this page and would appreciate if you could expand it in next 1-2 days:

• n:Formula 1 season opens at Australian Grand Prix
• n.b. docs: 'inverted pyramid' article structure at the site

Possibly CC Island92 and DH85868993 as edited some page here about related topic.

Many thanks.

I've never touched WikiNews before but I did my best to copyedit what is there so far. I don't have the time to expand it at the moment, but I'd gladly look it over again once more content is added. Also, for future reference, anything relating to Formula One is best addressed at the sub WikiProject. GalacticVelocity08 (talk) 22:53, 8 March 2026 (UTC)

It appears the article has been deleted. Tvx1 20:43, 25 March 2026 (UTC)

Yes news got old before it was written up properly. Unfortunately, it was way above my head and the site rules are to publish within 3 days or else it is not a news. Gryllida 11:29, 27 March 2026 (UTC)

i have been doing these things, where i do records, like how many wins in this specific motorsport at the track configuration, and people revert them, so i came here to ask for a special place for them, so that i can write it down ~2026-10024-42 (talk) 20:00, 17 March 2026 (UTC)

Honestly, probably not Wikipedia. It's an encyclopaedia, not a database. Rally Wonk (talk) 20:06, 17 March 2026 (UTC)

He is a French-born Luxembourger who raced recently in FRECA and is a decent talent in French F4, would someone to make his page? F1fan00 (talk) 12:04, 18 March 2026 (UTC)

Feel free to create a draft about him—you can always reach out to Wikipedia:Articles for creation for assistance. Remember that biographies need independent coverage in the form of sources, such as this, this, this and this, in order to demonstrate notability. MSport1005 (talk) 15:45, 18 March 2026 (UTC)

will do, thanks for the links F1fan00 (talk) 16:18, 18 March 2026 (UTC)

.User:Maxster573 has systematically gone through all of the Supercars Championship articles (mainly 2013 onwards) and added an unnecessary amount of flags to the 'Season summary' sections. I've removed what I can, but as my edit limit is going to run out (and I have no intention of starting an account) can a proper user please clean these up? This is not the first time such flagrant MOSFLAG breaches have been made to these articles, and judging by a past warning for a libelous article this users' activity may need to be monitored. ~2026-18282-79 (talk) 22:06, 23 March 2026 (UTC)

I’m guessing this deals with the manufacturers’ flag? But what about the state flags in the results summaries? Tvx1 09:52, 24 March 2026 (UTC)

I somewhat randomly discovered the Wikipedia article for cyclekarting, and it's really bad over there. I need an expert on this to basically chainsaw the whole thing (or AfD it if deemed necessary).

There is a requested move discussion at Talk:Rachel Robertson (racing driver)#Requested move 14 March 2026 that may be of interest to members of this WikiProject. TarnishedPath^talk 09:15, 29 March 2026 (UTC)
