Article improvement

Hey, nice work on improving this article. It occurred to me that in the "injury laundry list" we probably need to mention 2013 when he lost his spleen following the spill at the Breeders' Cup. Montanabw^(talk) 22:37, 1 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I mean to do an overhaul with some detail on early year. Keeneland usually has a good bio. Tighten the major wins in the info box to mostly G1s - he's got enough of those, no need for the more minor ones. Thank goodness for Equibase. Problem with someone like Johnie V is there is so much out there that its hard to find what you really want. Jlvsclrk (talk) 22:47, 1 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned references in John R. Velazquez

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of John R. Velazquez's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT ⚡ 07:22, 3 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

They are all intended to be from the cited sources. If the problem is all are named the same, I will tweak. Montanabw^(talk) 19:47, 5 September 2016 (UTC) Follow up: None of these are named "equibase profile," each is for a separate horse. That said, we may want to add a "title=" parameter to clarify and fix the "Website" parameter to the name and not the URL. Montanabw^(talk) 19:48, 5 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Puerto Rican?

Is there some MOS reason we're calling him 'a Puerto Rican jockey' in the lead? Shouldn't we just be calling him American? —valereee (talk) 10:13, 23 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
