Thank you for adding a note to an ongoing fixture. However, the event in question occurred on day three of the match whereas the scorecard was only updated to the end of day one. This can be misleading and/or confusing to readers. If you wish to add match notes in future, please wait until the scorecard has been updated at the end of a day's play such that the match note refers to an event which occurred on or before that day. Note that updates do not always happen each day of a match.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Ben Cliff, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Halifax. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

  Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give a page a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into another page with a different name. This is known as a "cut-and-paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is legally required for attribution. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.

In most cases for registered users, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page (the tab may be hidden in a dropdown menu for you). This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Requests for history merge. Thank you.

Please stop copy-pasting from draft space. Thanks. Izno (talk) 17:55, 29 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

Re. Your edit to the 2024 County Championship Division two Standings table. I have now amended this so that Gloucestershire's number of losses is in agreement with the official ECB table, and removed the additional 8 points deducted. For future reference, please see the relevant section on the Talk page, which explains why.

(Edwin of Northumbria (talk) 20:53, 29 September 2024 (UTC))Reply

There is a little bit confusion in Tie and draw. Goodknowme (talk) 21:31, 29 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

Yes, the ECB table doesn't distinguish between ties and draws, so it is necessary to combine the information from several sources to use the Sports table/CricketCC template. A study of the season's match results also helps. Gloucestershire were a particularly complex case because they were involved in a tie and two matches that were abandoned for different reasons. I suspect that it may be some time before that happens to the same team in one season again!!

(Edwin of Northumbria (talk) 02:33, 30 September 2024 (UTC))Reply

I said that I am confused that time in Abandoned, ties and draws. Not in ECB or Cricinfo or BBC. Thank you for correcting me. Thank you Goodknowme (talk) 03:03, 30 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

Actually, I'd forgotten that there's an error in the ECB table. Just to make things even more confusing, this should show 7 draws (including the game abandoned without a ball being bowled). I remember now having to go through the individual match results a few weeks ago to work out what was going on.

(Edwin of Northumbria (talk) 03:29, 30 September 2024 (UTC))Reply

I've added some comments to the section on the Talk page I referred you to above, which I hope will make matters clearer. Thanks for drawing (if you will excuse the pun) this matter to my attention, as it will hopefully avoid other people getting confused if they look at the table in future.

An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Indian cricket team in Australia in 2024–25, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Mackay and Australia A.

You removed a citation I added to the aforementioned page without explanation. The BBC is a widely accepted source on Wikipedia and around the world. If you know of a reason why they are not then I suggest you raise it with the appropriate people and seek to have the BBC deprecated. If not please do not randomly remove valid citations. Wikipedia is a cooperative effort and not anyone editor's personal domain. Thank you. Shrug02 (talk) 17:26, 28 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

Sorry, for your complain against me. This citation deleted by mistake and I forgot to add further. I know BBC Sport is most trustable source. Goodknowme (talk) 17:31, 28 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

  Hello Goodknowme! While we appreciate your contributions to Wikipedia, it's important to understand and adhere to guidelines about using information from sources to prevent copyright and plagiarism issues. Here are the key points:

• Limited quotation: You may only copy or translate a small portion of a source. Any direct quotations must be enclosed in double quotation marks (") and properly cited using an inline citation. More information is available on the non-free content page. To learn how to cite a source, see Help:Referencing for beginners.
• Paraphrasing: Beyond limited quotations, you are required to put all information in your own words. Following the source's wording too closely can lead to copyright issues and is not permitted; see Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing. Even when paraphrasing, you must still cite your sources as appropriate.
• Image use guidelines: In most scenarios, only freely licensed or public domain images may be used and these should be uploaded to our sister project, Wikimedia Commons. In some scenarios, non-freely copyrighted content can be used if they meet all ten of our non-free content criteria; Wikipedia:Plain and simple non-free content guide may help with determining a file's eligibility.
• Copyrighted material donation: If you hold the copyright to the content you want to copy, or are a legally designated agent, you may be able to license the text for publication here. Please see Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials.
• Copying and translation within Wikipedia: Wikipedia articles can be copied or translated, however they must have proper attribution in accordance with Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. For translation, see Help:Translation § License requirements.

It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices. Persistent failure to comply may result in being blocked from editing. If you have any questions or need further clarification, please ask them here on this page, or leave a message on my talk page. Thank you. Whpq (talk) 01:53, 22 December 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hi Goodknowme. Thank you for your work on Bella James. Another editor, MolecularPilot, has reviewed it as part of new pages patrol and left the following comment:

A pass of WP:NCRIC as she played internationally in the ODI. Amazing work, you might want to consider joining women in Red if writing biographies about little-known but important women is something you are interested in! :)

I have no idea about women in Red. And I created or edited page about only female cricketer. These page were written with very deep research. Thank you Goodknowme (talk) 04:57, 22 December 2024 (UTC)Reply
