[edit]Thanks for answering my concerns. It seems that those souls unfortunate enought to inhabit the sub-continent need to exaggerate the feats of their sporting heroes to somehow validate their pitiful and meaningless existence.

Can you please rewrite the sentence that you added here. It is difficult to understand that line. Tintin (talk) 03:14, 6 December 2006 (UTC)
- I think it's significant and should be mentioned that she won a medal in every Olympic event she competed in over the course of 3 editions of the Olympic Games. I've revised the sentence, hopefully it's easier to understand now. -- Jonel | Speak 03:40, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

Hmmm... didn't know about him. It's quite a difficult issue because, of course, race is a continuum, not a binary classification. It's therefore debatable whether he was "really" black, if he could have 'passed himself off as white. In any case, it's clear he couldn't have been the first [[bantu|black]] South African player. I think your proposal is a good one - mention all the facts (Llewellyn played and on some definitions was black, Ntini is the first post-Apartheid black player, maybe even mention Adams) but not interpretations.

[edit]Those are great, Tintin. I've added them as external links and I've made a note to use them when I expand the article. For the moment, I'm putting together early cricket histories for all the countries and when those are in place I'll be doing the long and arduous seasonal review process that I did for England. I've decided to do Bangladesh early as its history is short and can be easily completed. It will be a useful "test case" for the rest.

- I've now delinked the name, as I'm fairly sure it was the wrong persion. A Gioogle-search indicated that a Ghulam Mustafa Khan was secretary of the PCB during the 1990s, andd I imagine that "our" Ghulam Mustafa Khan is him. It seems unlikely that he could have been a leading academic as well, whose article would not mention cricket. JH 21:31, 18 December 2006 (UTC)

RSD & SCG
[edit]When you have time, can you please review the contributions of Ghosjjoy. I initially thought that there were good edits (for eg, he removed some useless stats from RSD page) but his later edits are very pro-SCG and anti-RSD. Not sure whether a blanket revert would do as the original versions aren't too good either ! Tintin (talk) 14:11, 19 December 2006 (UTC)
- Yeah, I reverted the Ganguly edits, as they attack Chappell and insert hagiographic hyperbole, and also claim that Ganguly nurtured all the young players, eg, Bhajji, Yuvraj, Zaheer, etc and credit him with their success etc.... The Dravid article was pretty useless, but now I'm sitting not sitting on the edge of my seat, I may as go and ref my draft of RSD and paste it in there. He also blanked out the parts about RSD and the run of successful chases as well as the useless stuff...Blnguyen (bananabucket) 01:44, 20 December 2006 (UTC)

Hi Tintin. I don't remember bat-twirling as a specific part of Mushtaq's batting "technique" and, if he was, I'd have thought it doubtful whether anyone could substantiate whether he was one of the first to do it or not. Some other bits in the article are a bit odd too: more centuries than his "more famous" brother Hanif, for instance – not sure any article should be saying that. I can vouch for him being one of the first, if not the first, to use the reverse sweep, though. Johnlp 20:15, 26 December 2006 (UTC) Added some rather hasty words.

Re Shastri
[edit]I think your edits have been good; mentioning Warne in the introduction of an article about Shastri is a bit stupid.

Nair and Ezhava article
[edit]Hey Tintin, I've rewritten the Nair article, but it still needs some references. I've been trying to find some, and I have added a few here and there. But a lot more could be done. The second issue is with the Ezhava article. It has a lot of POV, unreferenced information, and it sounds very romanticized. I've rewritten some parts, but an individual (192.147.57.6) insists on reverting, claiming "too many Nair references" and such. Perhaps you could take a look at these articles (especially the first one), and give me some pointers on how to improve them? Thanks! --Vivin Paliath (വിവി൯ പാലിയത്) 00:23, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
Vidwan Koi Thampuran
[edit]Your query : " Who is this ? Is there is anybody who is popularly known only as "Vidwan Koi Thampuran". If this is Kerala Varma Valiakoi Thampuran, he should be named as such. " ( This was your comment on the Culture of Thiruvananthapuram page. )
Answer : His full name is Vidwan Rajaraja Varma Koi Thampuran (1812-1845), popularly known as Vidwan Koi Thampuran. He wrote the famous attakadha Ravana Vijayam. More details can be found here.

Vishal
[edit]Hi Tintin. Thanks for your intervention regarding Vishal1976. Idon't intend provoking him further, however his behaviour is not new. His history of edits is full of such unreasonableness. I had to report him in PAIN. Let us see what the reviewers say. Gandhian tactics won't work with unreasonable people. Sometimes we need a Subhash Bose. :) Parthi talk/contribs 09:05, 8 January 2007 (UTC)
Hi, a user has removed a paragraph on India/The subcontinent's financial dominance in cricket which influenced the decision to make them host for the 2011 tournament (supported with 3 sources). Your input will be appreciated. Thanks GizzaChat © 22:10, 8 January 2007 (UTC)
- I located a free pic for Murali. Do you think it would be viable to get an FA on him in time for the world cup and get it on the main page? I also found one for Tendulkar and Pathan, although the images are close to useless as you cannot see anything of their faces at all. Blnguyen (bananabucket) 03:22, 10 January 2007 (UTC)
- Even if Cornered Tigers is a legitimate nickname, I don't think it deserves to be in the article. Otherwise, in other parts of the article we will have sentences like "One notable omission was the South African cricket team, nicknamed the Proteas who were not competing due to the international sports boycott." If it was a nickname specific to the 1992 World Cup, as the interview suggests, it would be better to put the nickname in that article. GizzaChat © 21:36, 10 January 2007 (UTC)
Hi Tintin. You are quite right: completely over the top. I've done a quick rewrite to tone it done, remove all the POV statements and try to make it objective. You'd think his best friend is still alive!! See what you think and by all means edit anything I might have missed.
Sorry for not replying sooner, by the way: very busy of late. All the best. --BlackJack | talk page 21:09, 10 January 2007 (UTC)
Starting Times
[edit]For Test and most first-class matches in England, the usual starting time is 11am local time (10am GMT), except that County Championship matches whose first day is on or after 1st September begin at 10:30 to try to minimise time lost to bad light at the end of the day, with the evenings drawing in (I can't remember if that also applies to Tests). Most 50 overs a side limited overs matches start at 10:30. 40 overs a side matches usually start at 1pm, and 20-20 matches at 5:30 pm. Obviously the handful of day-night matches will start later.

Hello Tintin. I was wondering if you can fill out the section before the 2001 Border Gavaskar series, because I can't really work out how he was behind Sunil Joshi, Murali Kartik and Sarandeep Singh just before and then suddenly was leading the attack with all three of them out of the team for the first Test. I think it provides some necessary context in the lead up to the series about how he was nowhere and then got into the team. Blnguyen (bananabucket) 05:53, 22 January 2007 (UTC)
- I do wonder why Mihir Bose and CMJ's Who's who, talk about "Amar and Nissar Singh"? The other thing, do you know which year it was the Harbhajan was sent to the NCA and then expelled? Blnguyen (bananabucket) 05:38, 29 January 2007 (UTC)
All done. Harbhajan is this week's INCOTW. Blnguyen (bananabucket) 05:51, 7 February 2007 (UTC)
- He's still single isn't he? I was looking up stuff for the "personal life" and can't find anything more than him denying reports in Jan2005 that he was marrying a certain Priya Reddy. Blnguyen (bananabucket) 05:48, 2 March 2007 (UTC)
- Otherwise, I think we're ready to go for FAC. Blnguyen (bananabucket) 05:48, 2 March 2007 (UTC)
- It's there on FAC- did I miss anything in the coverage? Also, I think I might create Chappell Ganguly affair - We've got a pic of Ganguly, and it won't take as long as doing his whole career for FA. Blnguyen (bananabucket) 04:36, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
disambiguate
[edit]Regarding the various Ijaz Ahmeds... I can see how someone who knows about cricket could make a choice between the two cricket players.
But, can I ask how someone could make the determination that a cricket player is more important than a terrorist suspect, who was held in extrajudicial detention for four years? According to the Daily Times, this Ijaz Ahmed was one of the released suspects who reported the Koran abuse that triggered those world-wide riots.
There was a guy who took it very personally that I thought another Guantanamo captive was as important as a Pakistani servant of Queen Victoria. I didn't really understand why he thought the servant was so important.
I don't understand. But I am not going to make a fuss about it.

Hello Tintin, I was wondering how one would go about requesting an article to be protected from edits by new user. The Nair article is currently suffering from repeated reverts and edits by individuals who find the classification (of Nairs) as Sudras to be unappetizing. By the way, I still remember your request about Paliath Ravi Achan (for your articles on Indian cricketers). I asked my mother, but other than knowing which branch of the Paliam family he is from, she does not know more. I will endeavor to find out more, but the most I can probably get is just the names of his parents. --Vivin Paliath (വിവി൯ പാലിയത്) 14:06, 29 January 2007 (UTC)

Hi Tintin. A reviewer rightly pulled me up for some OR in this article. I've begun fixing it, but I'm short of references to humiliation, chaos in the England camp, crushing victories etc I think these are essential to tell the story fully - that summer and the craziness with the 4 captains, was all about a team in turmoil due to overwhelming defeat after defeat, but my opinion's not worth a jot here of course! :-) I think you've got access to Wisden online - could you help with some quotes/citations along these lines? --Dweller 10:18, 7 February 2007 (UTC)
Parsee teams in England
[edit]Hello again Tintin. You're quite right that it should be the Parsee team and not the Parsees team. I'm reading A Corner of a Foreign Field at the moment and I think we need more Parsee tour articles so I've made a note to investigate that further. All the best. --BlackJack | talk page 05:40, 8 February 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for your contribution to this. I know that the link I put in for Pennsylvania University needs disambiguating, but I wasn't sure which of the two possibilities Hordern attended. I don't suppose that you'd happen to know? JH (talk page) 10:21, 16 February 2007 (UTC)
- I think that Penn would have to be right. Pennsylvania State is invariably refered to as Penn State and is the less upperclass school of the two. Penn is the Perfect place for a visiting med student/cricketer. Are either of you going to be nominating this for DYK? I think that the additions on 15 and 16 February more than qualify it.--Eva bd 15:16, 16 February 2007 (UTC)
- When a conversation becomes three-way, it's hard to know where to respond. :) I'll alter the Rick Smith book to Further Reading. It's true that I didn't actually refer to it. I've a couple of other minor additions to make to the article, and then I'll put it forward for DYK. JH (talk page) 18:16, 16 February 2007 (UTC)
- I've now done that, namely that (according to Barker and Rosenwater) at the time of the 1911-2 series he was being hailed as the best bowler of his type in the world, and also a link to the "original" Ranji to help explain the nickname (which otherwise might puzzle a reader not familiar with cricket). Using the "fancy" citation format for my reference to the Barker and Rosenwater book was a bit beyond me. I don't know whether you'd like to do that before we put it forward for DYK? Thanks for all your work on this. JH (talk page) 18:40, 16 February 2007 (UTC)
- I've now proposed it for DYK. JH (talk page) 20:23, 16 February 2007 (UTC)

Ganteaume
[edit]Thanks. I've amended. Wisden called Kanhai "little more than a stopper", but he probably had a bit more batting potential than Ganteaume at this stage! I'm not sure Kanhai kept very much after this tour. Johnlp 00:35, 17 February 2007 (UTC)
Vic Isaacs
[edit]Interesting indeed. I think that "bullied into retirement" has to count as POV, even if it's the POV of the person in question! JH (talk page) 09:35, 17 February 2007 (UTC)
- Will "being made to retire under the new regime" will cover both his opinion without being too harsh on the committee ? That sounds like a reasonable compromise. I wonder if searching on "Vic Isaacs" on Cricinfo might turn up anything about the affair, such as a Cricketer article? JH (talk page) 09:21, 20 February 2007 (UTC)
- My belated answer is that while I have had a few email exchanges with Vic in the past (all cricket related and pleasant), I haven't heard anything about being bullied into retirement. I'm not currently a member of the ACS but their journal may cover Vic's retirement there. We may need to keep an eye on related articles to see if any other POV edits take place there. --Roisterer 02:40, 21 February 2007 (UTC)
Hi Tintin, Dweller pointed me in your direction for a couple of hard-to-find citations in the Colly article. You may already know we're trying to get this to FA as well as the Windies tour '88, but two things are apparent. Firstly I need some access to info on his domestic career. The international stuff is well covered, well cited and extensive, but I can't find any on-line sources for his domestic career. Secondly there are a number of woolly WP:OR lines which either need referencing or removing, such as:
- This return would reignite the ongoing batsman debate between Cook, Bell and Collingwood, with many speculating that Collingwood would be the man to miss out[citation needed]
and
- critics such as Geoffrey Boycott and some fans began to question the coaching staff's placement of him in the batting order[citation needed], and of his placements on the team especially in the wake of Andrew Flintoff's return[citation needed]
Can you help at all? Cheers! The Rambling Man 11:48, 19 February 2007 (UTC)

Re Ranji Trophy records
[edit]I don't actually know any Malayalam at all (my Indian language knowledge only extends as far as very basic Kannada). In fact, my computer isn't even set up to display Malayalam fonts, so I can see only the numbers in that article. However, just by looking at the numbers, using the provided scorecard links, Google and a bit of common sense you can deduce what each number means. Some records still need recent references though.
