Also he speaks that speaker who mistakenly called him Croat he said "He has hurted me too a lot, but didn't want to make scandals".

Vanja Udovicic's real name is Franjo (pure croatian name), he changed it because of fear, like Dijana's don't want to say she is Croat. But she is. However, she can feel she is Serbian but that will not mean Novak doesn't have croatian origin. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 46.188.252.196 ( talk) 13:57, 11 June 2012 (UTC) FEAR - TOTAL BULLSHIT, Vanja ´s father is half Italian half croat, but his mother is a Serb and he grew up in Serbia. Djoković´s mother was born in Croatia but she is a Serbian and he is very proud of his origin. And bye the way Franjo is not pure Croatian name, that name has origin in lot of countries ( I´m from Slovenia and I´ve got 2 friends calling that name but they have both Slovenian origin). But if you want to count someones blood cells why don´t you do that with Goran Ivanišević and Dražen Petrović
Nothing of his run to the semi-finals of Wimbledon and subsequent defeat by eventual champion Federer? That's hugely out of place. 2.28.173.34 ( talk) 23:21, 8 July 2012 (UTC)
Since this may impact all biographies, including tennis bios, I thought it might be important. Good or bad this article on Novak Djokovic may be forced to move to Novak Đoković with no mention of the spelling Novak Djokovic allowed. Hey, that may be the preference here, and that's cool if so, but I thought it should at least be mentioned. Whatever your view it's at: RFC on Alternate names.

Why aren't the footnotes: "^ The final took 5 hours, 53 minutes to complete.[123] ^ The match took 4 hours, 3 minutes to complete.[125]" implemented into the article where they belong?-- Zoupan 20:35, 16 August 2012 (UTC)
What do you think about nomination for GA? -- WhiteWriter speaks 14:42, 17 August 2012 (UTC)
We have to be careful here on article length. Wikipedia likes 60k or less per article and certainly 100k or less. Things to shorten include: In popular culture, Investments (trivial), Sponsorships, 2012, 2010 (a lot), 2009 (a lot), and 2008. Let's get this well below the 100k threshold before an administrator tags it or a non-tennis editor whacks it down arbitrarily. Remember that each year can have its own article and 2007–2010 may need it. Fyunck(click) ( talk) 19:56, 19 December 2012 (UTC)
None of your sources say that he is the best. Your play on words for "considered the best" and "is the best" is vandalism. None of your sources in [a] say that they consider him the best other than Cash. 129.97.124.85 ( talk) 22:48, 27 December 2012 (UTC)
Only 2 out of 10 sources consider Djokovic to be one of the greatest. Sounds like Wikipedia is subscribing to misuse of sources and vandalism. Strange that no one is is bothering to read the sources before they post. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.93.146.128 ( talk) 14:03, 13 January 2013 (UTC)
If you read, are you prepared to go through each source and talk about their validity? Otherwise, you are vandalizing. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.93.146.128 ( talk) 14:21, 13 January 2013 (UTC)
Looks like you have not taken the time to read. Read (and understand) each source. Only 2 of 10 are valid. I can't believe you are vandalizing and spreading false info on Wikipedia. So much for Wikipedia. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.93.146.128 ( talk) 14:30, 13 January 2013 (UTC)
He has reached 6th consecutive hard court grand slam final (since 2010 Us Open) This is a joint record with ivan Lendl from 1982-1987 US Open (australian open weren't on hard courts_ EdGilmour ( talk) 16:48, 24 January 2013 (UTC)

10 titles (6 titles and 4 runner ups) Ajay080192 ( talk) 12:37, 27 January 2013 (UTC)
In terms of record,he is only the third player to win three consecutive Autralian open titles (< http://www.theage.com.au/sport/tennis/djokovic-piles-pain-on-murray-20130127-2dfgw.html.) This could be added under 2013 although I appreciate an earlier comment that the article is getting long Alexa Smith 01:23, 28 January 2013 (UTC)alexasmith — Preceding unsigned comment added by Alexasmith ( talk • contribs)
Is this really necessary? I do not consider it a rivalry. Djokovic has beaten Ferrer in almost any match of significance, just because they've met 15 times doesn't mean there has to be a section on it. On top of that its poorly written and referenced. The article is already too long without unnecessary rivalries popping up. Mwhittaker92 ( talk) 15:58, 22 February 2013 (UTC)
It isnt. Rivlary becomes "offical" when player is in top 3 on ATP list. Ferrer hasnt made it yet. -- 94.140.88.117 ( talk) 19:11, 3 March 2013 (UTC)

In the tennis career tab and 2008 sub-tab, you have mentioned "At the Australian Open, Djokovic reached his second consecutive Grand Slam final without dropping a set, including a victory over three-time defending champion Roger Federer in the semifinals." but Roger Federer was just two time defending champion and actually Novak became the first man in 2013 to win three back to back Australian Open tites.

An ongoing RfC on name spellings could affect this article's title and lead in the future. Regardless of feelings please comment if interested on whether alternate English spellings should be banned or kept. Fyunck(click) ( talk) 09:04, 27 May 2013 (UTC)
This section needs to be updated. The 11-8 win count includes both Wimbledon 2013 and 2012 Olympics, so Murray is 2-0 on grass... — Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.112.138.32 ( talk) 12:57, 24 July 2013 (UTC)
I'd like to share my logical dilema on this.
Why are there articles, all about tennis players, that have their names written in original, yet Novak's name (specifically surname) is written phonetically in English?
why not then http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Novak_Đoković
Though I am not all against "novak djokovic" page, that page should exist and redirect to a proper page....the oposite of what is now the case.
it's just illogical. 78.1.107.135 ( talk) 23:03, 24 August 2013 (UTC)

Well, then you'd better not have him and Nadal be No. 1 unless you are a Nole fan. Get real. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.93.146.124 ( talk) 23:58, 6 October 2013 (UTC)
Well, that is a possibility but Wikipedia continues to distribute inconsistency by listing both Nadal and Djokovic as No. 1. You don't care I assume... — Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.93.146.124 ( talk) 03:21, 7 October 2013 (UTC)

Sorry for the delay, but after going through the article after a couple of times, I am failing it.I believe it has the potential to become a GA, but now it has serious reference related issues. RRD13 ( talk) 17:19, 27 November 2013 (UTC)
I thought I should mention the ongoing discussions going on at WP:TENNIS; we are discussing how career statistics list should be modelled, it would be nice if any of you would participate in it. -- TIAYN ( talk) 15:19, 31 October 2013 (UTC)
Novak was represented Serbia and Montenegro from 2003 to 2006. As we use the name of the birthplace at the time of birth, in the infobox should write the names of all the countries for which he was competed. That's the way it is done on many other pages. Serbia and Montenegro did not change name and flag, Serbia is a new and different country. -- Aca Srbin ( talk) 18:55, 8 November 2014 (UCT)
And that is only represented Serbia, not the state union. Montenegro had its own tennis federation, competed only for Serbia, where he was born. State union Serbia and Montenegro does not have tennis federation, they separate.-- Soundwaweserb ( talk) 20:13, 8 November 2014 (UTC)
Discussion is not over and the problem has not been solved. I don't vandalize this page! Novak played for Serbia and Montenegro from 2003 to 2006 in Davis Cup, Grand Slams and ATP Tour. It is fact. This is evidence:
[7],
[8],
[9],
[10],
[11]
I think this is the most appropriate solution for infobox:
Serbia and Montenegro (2003–2006)
Serbia (2006–)
That's the way it is done on many other pages --
