New York Athletic Club article
The Mercury Cup section makes no sense. No other sport at NYAC has a section for every single in-house tournament. (The Mercury Cups were a tiny competition; there is no need to catalogue the results outside of [1]AskFRED.)
Are we to expect the Fall Classic squash tournament to be included as a section as well? What about the results of the Athlete's Fund golf tournament? It makes absolutely no sense to have this irrelevant (and outdated) section. 2603:7000:3AF0:8450:C145:919:AA8E:E024 (talk) 06:11, 13 January 2024 (UTC)
- That's fine. I probably agree with you. But your edit removed a large amount of content and the edit summary left little explanation. In the future, please explain your edit and, if it is removing a particularly large amount of content or may be controversial, leave a comment on the talk page first.
