Do the Americans really need their own section for Super-G? I think it should be removed - Jason
neutral point of view
I think that noting only American accomplishments in Super-G violates the principle of maintaining a neutral point of view. Shouldn't that section be removed?
what are the super g rules?
What happens if you crash through a gate? What is in and out of bounds on the course? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.36.200.118 (talk) 04:05, 20 February 2010 (UTC)
super Z?
What's the Z in the Definition section? Is that a typo, because it is not explained, but repeatedly used. I don't know enough to edit those "Z"s into "G"s. Also in that section, "with lower speeds approaching those achieved in Uphill." Uphill? Downhill, right? Finally, "way more turns" -- who wrote this, a 12-year-old? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.237.117.245 (talk) 04:10, 20 February 2010 (UTC)
Article name
I think we should drop the "skiing" part of the article name (and the goes for the other articles too, like the "Slalom skiing"). The article name should be just "Super-G". And when referenced, it's not a proper name, and should be written "super-G" in the middle of sentences. LarRan (talk) 20:39, 3 March 2010 (UTC)
Requested move
 | The request to rename this article to Super-G has been carried out.
If the page title has consensus, be sure to close this discussion using {{subst:RM top|'''page moved'''.}} and {{subst:RM bottom}} and remove the {{Requested move/dated|…}} tag, or replace it with the {{subst:Requested move/end|…}} tag. |
Super giant slalom skiing → Super-G – Common name, even on the official FIS page (Google has 10 hits for "super giant slalom" on fis-ski.com), as well as in other Wikipedia articles. The idea of a move was brought up by someone in 2010 (without anyone opposing), and as a reader I have previously considered the current title rather odd.
The only issue I can see is the hyphen. Based on the use of "Super-G" not "Super G" in the first sentence of the article I chose the hyphenated as the suggested target. I also believe that this is the official version, but use is varied, even within Wikipedia articles and FIS pages. 88.88.165.222 (talk) 01:52, 10 February 2013 (UTC)
