Tournament 3-dart average

Can anyone just confirm for me that this is worked out by just adding up all the player's average and divide the total by the number of matches he played? Vulgar Display Of Power (talk) 10:04, 5 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Confirmed, but you can find them here so their is no need to work out the averages yourself. Mr.Kennedy1 talk 14:49, 5 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

No thats fine, im aware of DartsDatabase and use it all the time, but I just wanted to ask because I calculated Phil Taylor's Tournament Average in the 2010 World Championship and it was different to the one wrote on the site. Thanks though, much appreciated! Vulgar Display Of Power (talk) 10:31, 8 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I don't want to be edit-warring with you so we have to resolve this now. According to WP:LEAD the lead should summarize the main body of the article which is what my version does. Thanks. Mr.Kennedy1 talk 23:41, 9 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, WP:LEAD should be a summary of the main article. Your version contains too much of the information that is already in the main body. Take a look at the leads for the 2009 and 2008 WGP articles. Yes, they do include the prize fund - fair enough - but they don't include the qualification criteria or TV coverage/sponsorship info, which your lead does. I hope you can see my point, because I can understand what you are saying, even if I don't necessarily agree with it. CFuller (talk) 08:10, 10 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, but they are wrongly written aswell, thats why I started WP:DARTS, so I could fix darts articles and make them into GAs and they will not get that far if you don't follow the criteria. Mr.Kennedy1 talk 10:04, 10 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, take a look at the articles for the 2010 and 2009 PDC World Championships. Are they poorly written? I say not - the leads in those articles display the venue and dates, defending champions, tournament winners, but NOT the qualification criteria, sponsors, TV coverage etc (these come in the main body of the article). This is how I believe the WGP leads should be written, and this is my interpretation of WP:LEAD. CFuller (talk) 10:29, 10 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
