Fight record wrong[edit]

claims he has 28 wins 9 losses in one section but when looking through the record only says 25-9 where are the other 3 wins? 2A00:23EE:1638:7B3A:7968:B869:BB24:2C5E (talk) 14:06, 30 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

where does it say that? Sometimes, the page is hit with vandalism. Marty2Hotty (talk) 16:43, 30 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Request[edit]

Change 6’0” to 5’11”. Sherdog lists him as 6 ft but the ufc and older organizations used 5 ft 11 since he began fighting prior to 2009. Here are a few reputable links that list him 5’11” : https://www.espn.com/mma/fighter/_/id/2560085/tony-ferguson http://ufcstats.com/fighter-details/22a92d7f62195791 https://www.tapology.com/fightcenter/fighters/tony-ferguson-el-cucuy (We as wiki editors need to put out the right information for readers. Thank you.) Articlread (talk) 16:09, 3 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I agree to your suggestion as long as you're using reliable sources and I won't revert your edit. However be forewarned some editors prefer to only use the default infobox source for stats, Sherdog, and will likely oppose you on this. Hunterb212 (talk) 04:50, 5 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Already sourced and stable. Oppose change, restored.NEDOCHAN (talk) 18:29, 6 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

FYI, Articlread is being more than a little disingenuous here, as editors have already discussed this on their talk page. Deleting your talk page and then feigning ignorance isn't great.NEDOCHAN (talk) 11:39, 7 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Why are you mad ? I clearly hurt your feelings princess Nedochan. Don’t bring up irrelevant topics into this, Wikipedia is not a place for talking about how you feel or what you think of the way other users act. AGF and Try to be less emotional. Articlread (talk) 13:36, 7 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I was commenting on your edits. I won't report this personal attack on this occasion.NEDOCHAN (talk) 15:52, 7 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Help me out regarding Template Telleroftruth2000 (talk) 00:40, 17 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Help me out regarding template[edit]

I am failing to properly cite 3 sources that show Ferguson's height is 5 ft 11 in. I'm not properly adding the sources, I keep making citation errors. If a more experienced editor can please cite these 3 sources for me that would be appreciated.

Hi. The good news is that the information is already sourced. There is a link at the bottom of the infobox. No action required. NEDOCHAN (talk) 08:10, 24 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I posted 3 sources that contradict the idea his height is 6 foot, including one from The UFC. Action is indeed required to fix the mistake. Telleroftruth2000 (talk) 01:08, 20 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

We don't use UFC as a source - it's neither independent nor reliable. The info is sourced to Sherdog, and there is a link at the bottom of the infobox. NEDOCHAN (talk) 09:22, 25 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

what? Isn't it like the biggest MMA promotion? Akaan327 (talk) 09:32, 6 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
