:Well, if you think so, great! There are apparently some Sports Editors but, as far as I can tell, they have never contributed 50 cents worth of stuff to our efforts. Maybe they should be de-Editorized and some new ones found. If *this* article could be Approved, I might have the energy to spend some serious time with [[Pancho Gonzales]] and [[Bill Tilden]], both of which have an enormous amount of material in them, but mostly in the ghastly WP format, which, however, I have revised to a certain degree. If these articles could be revised to any useful purpose, and then approved, I'll be happy to do it. If they're just going to languish, however....

This article focuses too much on early 20th century tennis and not enough (if at all) on later tennis players. --Charles Sandberg 20:48, 9 June 2007 (CDT)
