Hi Loganberry! Please be sure to have these pages on your watch list. There may be movements on them concerning articles or new articles that you may wish to edit or contribute to, but may not be already watching.
[edit] BST/ GMT
You are quite right, as I realised as soon as I'd gone to bed; I'd typed a load of nonsense. But it didn't quite meet the threshold for getting up to put it right. Rachel Pearce (talk) 06:53, 11 August 2009 (UTC)
[edit] Worcestershire meeting?

A tag has been placed on Joseph Parker (cricketer) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

[edit] Proposed deletion of Joseph Parker (cricketer)
The article Joseph Parker (cricketer) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- Declined speedy. First class level at university does not pass WP:ATHLETE as there is a professional level of cricket. The accomplishments at the level played also do not rise to the level of notability expected of university-level athletes. No awards, accolades, or championships.
While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{dated prod}} will stop the Proposed Deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The Speedy Deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and Articles for Deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. DarkAudit (talk) 21:45, 2 October 2009 (UTC)
[edit] Wisden v ICC awards
Hi Loganberry!
I would argue that the Sir Garfield Sobers Trophy should be not be removed from "See Also" section of Wisden Cricketers of the Year. Your rationale was that it was "not directly relevant to Wisden, whereas the other entries in this section are". I would demur: a "See Also" section is not limited by by its article. See Wikipedia:See_also#See_also_section. What's more...
oops, Zebedee arrived. :-) --Shirt58 (talk) 13:38, 9 October 2009 (UTC)
- Hi again
- Thank you for your reply - very much appreciated. There is not much space in an edit summary to make a fully-formed argument, but I should have thought more about this. I now completely agree with you. As you rightly pointed out, this is simply not a matter that should be discussed at any length on an article talk page.
- While it could be argued that, by way of their status, the Wisden and ICC awards are the "co-preeminent" Cricket awards[citation needed] and should be included in their respective "see also"s... I suspect this is something that may result in a whole bunch of talk with not much outcome. As you again pointed out, there a lot of Cricket awards, and with each their concomitant partisans.
Mmmm... perhaps their should be a cat [[Category:Cricket awards]] - Oh, yes - Zebedee. Though I now know he was only a moustachio'd ping-pong ball on a corkscrew, when I was a kid, Zebedee appeared like some Babylonian demiurge in a kind of mini-Götterdämmerung at the end of each Magic Roundabout. "Zebedee arrived", said the narrator, and then with a voice like Metatron (or, alternatively, Pilate in the Wakefield Mystery Plays) Zebedee would say "time for bed". --Shirt58 (talk) 11:28, 12 October 2009 (UTC)
- Oops. cat [[Category:Cricket_awards_and_rankings]] already exists.--Shirt58 (talk) 12:22, 12 October 2009 (UTC)
[edit] Malvern, GA nomination
-
- Hi Loganberry ! We now have a first review for GA. On the whole it doesn't look too bad. As you know, I am a local resident in absentia, and as a published author, a 'prose artist', but anything you can do to improve the language or address some of the more technical points as quickly as possible would be much appreciated. Any work on the new referencing system does not affect the overall quality and scope of the article for GA but you may be able to put put some of the wrong referencing things right and offer some suggestions on the other points made by the reviewer. It would be great for the Worcs project to have a GA of this envergure in its repertoire. See Talk:Malvern, Worcestershire#GA Review - and Happy New Year!--Kudpung (talk) 05:52, 2 January 2010 (UTC)
