Well, let's summarize what I have been doing. It all started last week on Tuesday 13th. I looked at DinOt's page at Liquipedia and it was so empty and outdated that made me uncomfortable. I couldn't leave it that way. So I started working on it. First, I started looking for information and references on different sites in order to help me remember and learn more about DinOt, who in fact was one of my favorite players back in 2008 when I started watching the foreigner scene. After many hours of hard work, searching, typing, learning how to use Liquipedia, and reviewing my texts I finally finished it. So I would appreciate that you take a look, it is still pending approval, so if everything looks right, and if the person in charge of approving changes and new content to Liquipedia reads this, please speed up the process. Give me your thoughts, I will say this in advance. I'll take 10-15 minutes to read, I would be glad that if you are a native English speaker and take some minutes of your time to read it, because, I might have committed mistakes that I'm not aware of due to my intermediate English skills. (I'm a Spanish native speaker). With nothing more to add I'll leave you the link to the current version, and the one I wrote:
DinOt (original Liquipedia page)
index.php?title=DinOt&diff=cur&oldid=130327 (edited Liquipedia page. Scroll almost all the way down in order to see the actual page)
Edit August 2018: (I copy pasted my most recent comment here) Well, guys, I believe you know that DinOt has recently returned in July of this year (2018) and he already played and qualified for StarCraft Remastered Pro Series. Also, he's now a member of SouLGaming so I decided to update his current state from retired to active and added SouLGaming to the infobox. I also made some changes to the page like putting the Liquipedia#25 Battle Report under a navigational template with collapsible groups, and I did the same with the replays for the Highlander Tournament section and Razer TSL Broadcasted Games section so everything looks a bit more organized now. For last but not least I made some minor changes in the text of some sections in order to avoid intricate texts, formatting problems and I hyphenated some words to avoid confusion. I'll be glad if you take a look and approve these changes.
I might be adding new content to DinOt's Liquipedia when StarCraft Remastered Pro Series finishes so stay tuned.

I'll approve it preemptively and give it a look-through later to revise for English. Good work!

After taking a longer glance at it, I feel comfortable removing the "Player stub" disclaimer at the top. However, this also forced some ugly formatting onto the page, so I removed the "Overview" heading and left the introduction under "DinOt" as the main heading. Let me know if you have any objections or other ideas - or better yet, you can try to implement them yourself and I'll take a look later.

waiting for salle to come around and ripping off his head for not using sources. more sources would really be appreciated. maybe the results could use an extra tab, then again, who ever cared for conventions.
i expect more edits on different players now, go4gold.

I left links under "References" Tab. From those sites, I got some of the information, the rest is in form of links attached to the texts. Also, every tournament I wrote about has a liquipedia page, except one(WCG 2009 Chile's National Qualifiers). And can be seen under the achievements tab. Just one click away in order to confirm everything written under the "Remarkable individual tournaments participations" tab. I hope that's enough to not get my head ripped off haha. Anyway, I'll try to add more links to the "References" tab, and maybe attach a link to every tournament's liquipedia page that appears on the "Remarkable individual tournaments participations", so people don' have to scroll down to check.
Thanks everyone for your kind words. I'll work on the references/sources. And I'll take another look at the page to see if i get a new idea to improve it.

I think what Gecko is getting at is that once you make a statement that you need to back up with information from a link, you used the automated referencing system. Here's an example:
Coach-Pupil League
If you look in the first paragraph you will see:
"The Coach-Pupil League (CPL) was organized by lazersnipe in February of 2017 with Jealous as a co-administrator. Continuing the league where L_Master left off, it was based on the original CPL conceived by EsX_Raptor[1] and hosted by l10f[2][3] many years ago. "
The [1], [2], and [3] are hotlinks for the references at the bottom:
You can click on the arrow to jump to the location of the initial reference point.
The code for these references looks like this:
it was based on the original CPL conceived by '''EsX_Raptor'''<ref>http://www.teamliquid.net/blogs/107065-coach-wars</ref> and hosted by '''l10f'''<ref>http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/brood-war/107084-coach-pupil-league</ref><ref>http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/brood-war/107395-cpl-news-and-announcements</ref> many years ago.
This automatically generates the "References" section at the bottom, in order, and the [#] system.

ahhh now i'm getting he hang of this. i screwed up, but i'll fix it C:

Well, it's all done every statement on DinOt's page has sources now and they're linked to the references tab. Just pending approval

at first glance... there was no WGTour 08-09
Also, I feel the battle report from a tournament is too much..
However - great effort for filling liquipedia with such detailed description and information. I wish there are more such articles for other players as well. There are barely few real progamers who got a similar level of coverage in the liquipedia.

If you go to this link you will find that there was a WCGTour Clan League during 2008-2009. Scroll down and you will find that there are 2 games DinOt vs Alf, and vs Mondragon under the event name: WGTCL1, and the next pages have more of them https://www.gosugamers.net/dota2/rankings/1730?page=3

Most of the broodwar related pages of his era don't exist anymore. Without any sources, nothing can be done. I remember that during a video of ASL4 a couple of Chileans were shown in the cameras holding a sign, and Artosis immediately remembered KeiR, he said very nice things about him.

I made one last change to the page to the WCG 2009 Chile's National Qualifiers content, I tried to enhance the readability by adding more details to the text and sources to the respective statements
