Semi-protected edit request on 23 February 2024

change "champ" to champion Siarra117 (talk) 00:48, 23 February 2024 (UTC)

Outside of quotes, 'champ' appears twice in the article. Neither of the uses appear to be egregious, and I believe most readers see the terms as interchangeable. So, what exactly is the issue here? Stefen Towers among the rest! GabGruntwerk 03:13, 25 February 2024 (UTC)

The page is locked. Can some registered user please add the above link to Doug Jones’ page to his name in the list of Ali’s bouts. It is plain text at the present time. Thank you.2601:196:180:DC0:5C45:48EB:C727:25A1 (talk) 23:08, 28 February 2024 (UTC)

  Not done Doug Jones is already linked in that table. Stefen Towers among the rest! GabGruntwerk 23:41, 28 February 2024 (UTC)

Muhammeds Parkinson edit request on 5 June 2024

Parkinson disease has no known cause, if Muhammad Ali's PD was caused by repeated blows to the head as is claimed then it would be more accurate to say he developed parkinsonism (motor symptoms similar to those caused by PD but rather caused by a different neurological condition which in this case would most likely be TBI or CTE) [1] [2] 2600:100F:B1B9:F40E:DD22:9688:AC02:39DB (talk) 18:50, 5 June 2024 (UTC)

  Not done To say Ali had "Parkinsonism", we need to have reliable sources that say that. We as editors cannot make diagnoses. Wikipedia articles are built from reliable sources. See also WP:VNT. Stefen Towers among the rest! GabGruntwerk 19:20, 5 June 2024 (UTC)
