Rankings on cards

Why aren't rankings added to Wikipedia entries on cards? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2001:630:E4:4220:883D:8293:43A1:2517 (talk) 15:32, 1 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protected edit request on 27 October 2020

 Not done for now: The rankings have not changed on the UFC website. Once a reliable source updates the rankings (probably by updating the UFC site) then this listing can be adjusted. ‑‑ElHef (Meep?) 14:26, 27 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Beneil Dariush

Last I checked, Assyria is not a country. Stop placing Beneil Daruish's nationality as Assyrian. He may have heritage/ancestry from that region, but he was raised in the United States from age four (25+ years), thus making him an American. If there is any other nationality one is going to place upon him, wouldn't it be the place of his birth, Iran?

Unsourced edits

@KyleBYerrick: First of all, thank you for your work on this page. Secondly, Some of your edits today don't appear in the only source provided in the article. What are they based on? Deancarmeli (talk) 18:58, 25 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Deancarmeli I think this is how you answer on here or I have to use the talk page. Anyways, TSN has their own ranking page which is similar to the main UFC one. But the main UFC one only gets updated on the Tuesday after an event. If some news regarding a removed ranked fighter such as retirement or inactivity were to happen, like with Joanna, reports come in on a change on the TSN ranking page; and some MMA journalists list it as a credible source. I'm still getting used to sourcing on here so if it's not allowed, I'll just wait until the main one updates every tuesday. KyleBYerrick (talk) 12:36, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@KyleBYerrick: Thanks for your reply. If you know of an additional source, such as that TSN, you are more than welcome to add it to the main article. The only problem was, per WP:VERIFY: "All material in Wikipedia mainspace, including everything in articles, lists and captions, must be verifiable. All quotations, and any material whose verifiability has been challenged or is likely to be challenged, must include an inline citation to a reliable source that directly supports the material.". Shortly, the information doesn't need to be true — it needs to be verifiable. Deancarmeli (talk) 13:18, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Current Win Streaks and Title Defense Streaks

Should we add current win streaks and title defense streaks (for current champions) in the ranking tables? Txaggiemichael (talk) 04:44, 12 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
