Skiing
[edit]- Alpine Skiing Topolino Trophy - The Topolino event is worldwide the biggest and most competitive of all international FIS children´s competitions. Each country only sends their best to this event, most countries using their full quota of 10 athletes. Other competitions like "Pokal Loka" (Skofja Loka, SLO) or "Pinnochio sugli sci" (Abetone, ITA) have similar competitor fields, but often the "second best" start at these events. Events like Whistler Cup (Whistler, CAN) or Vratna Interkriterium (Vratna, SVK) have smaller competitor fields (as not all of the alpine nations are present) and the full quota is often not filled. Competing at Topolino is an experience, winning at Topolino puts them on the map and opens doors to contract offers of the leading ski brands. The list of Topolino winners reaches from ski racing heroes Alberto Tomba, Benjamin Raich, Janica Kostelic, all the way through to current champs Mikaela Shiffrin (USA, 2010), Anna Fenninger (AUT, 2004), Dominik Paris (ITA, 2004), Andrew Weibrecht (USA, 2001), Michaela Kirchgasser (AUT, 2000) or Lindsay Vonn (USA, 1999).

- Preliminary wrestler - currently only a redirect
- (The term is used in WWE § Prior to Titan Sports.+ It wasn't defined there, but as I was copyediting the article, I checked; it has a wikilink, so I linked it. But that link is just a redirect to Job (professional wrestling), which doesn't mention the expression at all! I've been going round and round Portal:Professional wrestling trying to find the right place to mention this, but there's no listing for "terms used and linked in Wikipedia articles but not defined anywhere in Wikipedia". (Until I made one.)
- I ran a search for the expression. +It's found in 55 articles including the redirect so named, almost all of them articles about pro wrestlers. Obviously this is a term that needs an article, or at least a clear definition that can be directly linked to. AWB says Job (professional wrestling) has never contained the expression.
- I've written this problem up (in less detail) at Wikipedia:Requested articles/Sports § Professional wrestling, and am also linking from there to here. Please {{Ping}} me to discuss. --Thnidu (talk) 00:48, 13 June 2016 (UTC) )
