[edit] Why still the reverts?

Maybe because of this shred, "She switched to competing for Israel following the 2006 Eastern Sectional Championships, where she placed 9th on the novice level and thus failed to qualify for the 2006 U.S. Championships." These events are supported by the sources. However, the wording of this sentence strongly implies she switched to Israel because she didn't qualify in the 2006 US championships and moved to Israel where (also implied) the competition wouldn't be as stiff. I've been unable to find any source which explicitly asserts this. Hence, following WP:BLP, I'm going to put the wording into closer conformance with the sources. Input is welcome though.

Removing the unsourced assertion is A Good Thing, but it should be noted that removing this assertion the first time around (diff) did not result in a cessation of blanking by the elder Ms. Syken. (diff, diff, and diff) --Finngall ^talk 00:55, 6 May 2008 (UTC)

Maybe someone's not too thrilled about the very verifiable 37th place showing at the 2007 World Junior Figure Skating Championships the following year, which was left in. This is not mentioned on her official website either. Gwen Gale (talk) 01:07, 6 May 2008 (UTC)
