Donations

I think we should add new section to this article, named Donations. Novak has donated a lot of things numerous times, to Serbian Orthodox Church, for the medical needs for children, with most recent one, 3,000,000 dinars that allowed Serbian team to go to 2015 Special Olympics World Summer Games donations. What do you think? Maybe entire section should be renamed, like Public work (or Off the court), with subsections Sponsorships, Investments, and Donations (or Philanthropy)? --Ąnαșταη (ταlκ) 14:16, 15 June 2015 (UTC)

Greatest match

The article says, "with the 2012 Australian Open final being considered the greatest match ever seen".

The page for the 2008 Wimbledon Championships – Men's Singles final says, "It is widely regarded as the greatest match in the history of tennis".

Clearly they can't both be the greatest match. Maybe it's better to lose hyperbole and cite more sober comments? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 149.241.226.114 (talk) 01:11, 28 June 2015 (UTC)

It's clear that the claim on the Wimbledon final article is desperately outdated. The sources used to back it all date to 2009, three years before the aforementioned AO final. Tvx1 17:34, 4 July 2015 (UTC)
The problem is there are many candidates for greatest match since it's such a subjective subject. Neither is correct and neither is wrong. Fyunck(click) (talk) 17:40, 4 July 2015 (UTC)
In that cause we should change if from the greatest to one of the greatest, which is more neutral. Tvx1 21:39, 4 July 2015 (UTC)
This is probably a good idea. It's like the greatest player debate. We have quotes from the same authority saying a different player is the greatest ever. When there are multiple quotes with different viewpoints it's best to say "one of the greatest" or perhaps "some sources have called it the greatest." That we could have 5 or 6 matches that say "some sources have called it the greatest" without it stepping on the toes of other greatest matches. heck I watched them both and still have a hard time saying they were any better than witnessing the Borg/McEnroe Wimbledon final from 1980. Or the Federer/Roddick final of 2009. Or the Graf/Navratilova French final of 87. Recent always gets the nod by press and fans though as being the latest and greatest. Fyunck(click) (talk) 23:51, 4 July 2015 (UTC)
I have the exact same opinion as you on those matches. I watched both of them too I and I have a hard time considering them greater than those others you mentioned. In fact, I rate two more Wimbledon finals high up there. The 2001 Ivanisevic/Rafter final, which was another epic thriller which produced a wildcard winning a grand slam title, and the 2014 Federer/Djokovic final which was another epic battle between all-time greats. And the 2007 Federer/Nadal final was quite gripping as well if you ask me. Tvx1 16:09, 5 July 2015 (UTC)
Absolutely true. Of course, yours and my opinions don't matter... only what we can source. But when multiple sources say different matches are the greatest ever, we have to be careful here how we use the term. Fyunck(click) (talk) 18:31, 5 July 2015 (UTC)
Speaking of greatest matches, I have seen one last night that had a quality that I haven't seen that often yet. Tvx1 16:30, 5 September 2015 (UTC)
You talking Nadal/Fognini? Amazing stuff. Fyunck(click) (talk) 17:30, 5 September 2015 (UTC)

Please edit the records section as the entry "3+ runner-up finishes at 2 Majors" is now shared by Roger Federer. Please make the corresponding addition to the Federer page as well. Dhruvanand93 (talk) 11:48, 18 July 2015 (UTC)

Donkey cheese claim apparently false

According to this nytimes article http://dinersjournal.blogs.nytimes.com/2012/12/19/dont-worry-donkey-cheese-is-still-available/, the donkey cheese claim in the "Investments" section is false. Someone should remove it, or add a disputing article.

Name spelling

I know there was a huge talk about this but I think that current name spelling is not correct. It actually is what is written on ATP rankings and so, but why only for Novak Đoković you use Novak Djokovic for Misplaced Pages? Every other tennis player form Serbia or Croatia, and every other public figure is spelled with Serbian/Croatian letters. Why is Novak different? I will just remind you with this: https://en.wikipedia.org/Janko_Tipsarevi%C4%87 https://en.wikipedia.org/Ivan_Ljubi%C4%8Di%C4%87 https://sh.wikipedia.org/Marin_%C4%8Cili%C4%87 So ether change all Serbo/Croatian spelling or make it for Novak to be the same. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 95.155.24.199 (talk) 13:57, 14 September 2015 (UTC)

We go by English sourcing and consensus. Djokovic was the overwhelming choice. Fyunck(click) (talk) 18:34, 14 September 2015 (UTC)
