548:. In this case, I copied some of the prose (the written text in the article) relevant to how the race was formerly in the playoffs from their beginning, then I copied the results tables. When I pasted those, I renamed the section titles or else they would have been identical to the ones already in the target article, and that would have caused problems with linking to those sections I just pasted. I then also copied the list of former race names from the infobox and put them in a collapsible list when pasting. 241: 22: 103: 559:.

Hi Just wanted to notify you of this, seems you were active on similar discussions and AfDs but the Lewis Hamilton win list and other such lists are proposed for deletion.

I decided to make a new one to make this a new section as our last one is a bit confusing, but with everything you told me do you think I could give it a shot with

Thanks for the ping! The AfD I closed was minimally attended - just enough to avoid a soft deletion. I see no harm in having this second AfD.

Thank you!! (for both teaching me, in case a race were to lose a date, and for merging both Drydene 400 and Würth 400. I appriciate it!)
