[edit] Blind reverting

Before blind reverting, can we discuss what is happening here? For some reason, User:122.106.15.15 doesn't like that this person was caught using steroids and that his coach said the only way he knew how to win was to cheat. The citation for this is fine and my research backs this up, although I haven't yet spent the time to find the right source to provide multiple sources in this instance. Second, there is the bizarre idea to start the article with a boldened statement that he won the world championship once. This is obvious already - both in the medal table and being in a relevant place in the article. Furthermore, blind reverting is removing a few extra bits I've added, a couple of categories and ordering the references before external links. Please think before you blindly revert again.
