Wikipedia talk:Articles for deletion/Taryn Position

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

To Whom It May Concern--The Taryn Position has been done in both qualifying and nonqualifying competitions beginning at the Los Angeles Open in July of 2006. The position was created in early spring by Taryn Horacek during a lesson with her coach Mary Becktell. Caroline and Taryn are friends having both trained with Becktell. Taryn can be seen doing the position at El Segundo during elite freestyles on Monday and Friday of each week.

Recently, the Glacier Falls Figure Skating club president, Don Rabbit took the move to the Governing Council and was told to call it the Taryn Position and attribute it to Taryn in all discussions and when teaching the move. There is no other way to name a move, but it is correct to assume that the first to create it and present it should receive credit.

I find it amusing that the move is notable and amazing on Caroline Zhang’s page, but not so for Taryn Horacek. Kolindigo is missing quite a bit only following the very top skaters. There is amazing talent and passion in the ranks that are surging upward.
