Um, I just stumbled across the above 'problem'. Not sure what you want to do about it as you started the first page, presumably not realising the second existed. The second is quite comprehensive and probably should remain as is while the first should become a redirect. I'll leave it to you to decide, just thought you ought to know!

i got the prob. our edits were saved at the same time. when i was editing u saved the page. since i saved my page later, by a few secs, ur edits were reverted. it wasnt my fault. please reply if u got what the problem was, else i will try to elaborate it more for u. nids 18:19, 31 July 2006 (UTC)
since i havent got any reply i assume that u havent got what the prob. was. i shall elaborate. open the edit option of the same page in two different windows. now do edits in one of them and save it. close the window. now do some edits in another window (they must be different from the first). now save the second window. then open the original page. u'll see that ur first edits would have been reverted and only ur second edits will be shown on the page. this was what happened at the time when u saved ur edits before me, but we were actually editing the same page. since i saved my page later, ur edits got reverted. i m sorry for ur inconveniences but it wasnt my fault either. atleast reply if u got what the prob. was. waitin for ur reply. nids 06:47, 1 August 2006 (UTC)

I meant in the context of mealtime prayers, but I could be wrong... Andycjp 31st August 2006
The first paragraph of Grace after meals is traditionally ascribed by Jews to the authorship of Moses. Subsequent paragraphs are also attributed to various prophets who predate Christianity by some millenia. On a more factual, "citational" basis, by the time of the discussions recorded in the Mishna, with which the life of Jesus is roughly contemporaneous, Grace after meals (and indeed, the blessings before meals) is a well-established fact of Jewish life with some antiquity behind it. -- Dweller 15:09, 30 August 2006 (UTC)

The warning to DemonicAnglian was a complete and total error that arose because of a hardware problem here, I had no intention of issuing any warning to him. If I had, I agree a t4 would be innapropriate. I think I can point to two mistakes with VP, and one complete mystery (The Truth about the Iditarod). If I'm making other mistakes, either in degree of warning or where no vandalism has taken place, then please tell me where they are and I will work out how they arose and how to avoid them in the future.

The fact that the word criticism is in the headline makes the theory that it's completely POV the whole point to begin with.

I'm sure that there are people who don't know what the NFL, NBA, or NHL stand for, so what point are you making.

The guidelines at WP:AIV say, in part, not to list someone for blocking if "The vandal has not received the full range of test warnings recently (i.e., within the previous week)." This IP's last test4 was on Oct. 12. Because different people may use the same IP account, the policy is generally not to block unless there is a recent (i.e., same day) test3, 4, or testb.

Thanks for the message. To be honest, I've never read a book on cricket. It seems to me that if one is going to make a definitive statement about someone being the best at something, then it should be cited. To the uninitiated, like myself, it seems like it may be PoV to make that claim. If I were to say that Michael Jordan was the best basketball player of all time, I'd get a lot of flack for that. If you could just cite one of those myriad sources, then it will be the published author's point of view and not the editors of Wikipedia. Keep up the great work.-- E va b d 13:13, 22 November 2006 (UTC)
Thanks a lot for the information on Bradman. It looks like quite an achievement. I've played cricket only a handful of times (infinitely more than most of my countrymen, though) and can understand the feat that it is to score that many centuries. Just batting against my mates I never got more than 25 runs. One problem that I see with declaring any sportsmen "the greatest" is that it is always going to be comparing apples to oranges. Michael Jordan may be a great basketball player, but if he were playing with Wilt Chamberlin, he may have been seen as average. Though undoubtedly extremely talented, Mr Bradman may have looked a little less great if he were batting against bowlers of a different era. Now...all that being said, I appreciate your quick response to my citation request and will commence shutting my mouth on the issue. Have a great Thanksgiving Day tomorrow :) -- E va b d 14:36, 22 November 2006 (UTC)

Hello! The Bradman text only specifies batsmen whose careers have finished because I changed it! I only changed it because Hussey's achievement made it no longer true! I think having the table of Test averages on the Bradman page is marginally undesirable, but I am quite willing to go along with it if you think it would be better there. I think it only needs to show, at most, the top three: it had grown into a very long list! The article documents Bradman's achievements, not Test records!

Posting at ANI was not wrong per se, but the matter probably didn't seem urgent and so was probably ignored by most admins. To complain about personal attacks or incivility, WP:PAIN is probably the best place, but I can't quote a direct violation of policy here. I hope the removal of the lists at the talk page settles the matter, and time is spent mostly improving the article and finding sources, not arguing.

In general, metacomments, where you are talking to other editors about the quality of their posts, should be on their talk pages or on the Ref Desk talk page rather than the project page, where you should be furnishing answers to the original questioner. Please also note that I had spent the past hour on posts defending the original questioner against attacks stating that he/she was likely a troll, and also that I said "The questioner probably should take it to someone qualified to examine and evaluate it, to make sure it is authentic, find out the value for insurance purposes, and make sure it is framed with archival materials, or whether it should be kept out of the light," which is not "focusing only on whether it is genuine" as you stated.

i got the prob. our edits were saved at the same time. when i was editing u saved the page. since i saved my page later, by a few secs, ur edits were reverted. it wasnt my fault. please reply if u got what the problem was, else i will try to elaborate it more for u. nids 18:19, 31 July 2006 (UTC)
since i havent got any reply i assume that u havent got what the prob. was. i shall elaborate. open the edit option of the same page in two different windows. now do edits in one of them and save it. close the window. now do some edits in another window (they must be different from the first). now save the second window. then open the original page. u'll see that ur first edits would have been reverted and only ur second edits will be shown on the page. this was what happened at the time when u saved ur edits before me, but we were actually editing the same page. since i saved my page later, ur edits got reverted. i m sorry for ur inconveniences but it wasnt my fault either. atleast reply if u got what the prob. was. waitin for ur reply. nids 06:47, 1 August 2006 (UTC)

I meant in the context of mealtime prayers, but I could be wrong... Andycjp 31st August 2006
The first paragraph of Grace after meals is traditionally ascribed by Jews to the authorship of Moses. Subsequent paragraphs are also attributed to various prophets who predate Christianity by some millenia. On a more factual, "citational" basis, by the time of the discussions recorded in the Mishna, with which the life of Jesus is roughly contemporaneous, Grace after meals (and indeed, the blessings before meals) is a well-established fact of Jewish life with some antiquity behind it. -- Dweller 15:09, 30 August 2006 (UTC)

The warning to DemonicAnglian was a complete and total error that arose because of a hardware problem here, I had no intention of issuing any warning to him. If I had, I agree a t4 would be innapropriate. I think I can point to two mistakes with VP, and one complete mystery (The Truth about the Iditarod). If I'm making other mistakes, either in degree of warning or where no vandalism has taken place, then please tell me where they are and I will work out how they arose and how to avoid them in the future.

The guidelines at WP:AIV say, in part, not to list someone for blocking if "The vandal has not received the full range of test warnings recently (i.e., within the previous week)." This IP's last test4 was on Oct. 12. Because different people may use the same IP account, the policy is generally not to block unless there is a recent (i.e., same day) test3, 4, or testb.

Thanks for the message. To be honest, I've never read a book on cricket. It seems to me that if one is going to make a definitive statement about someone being the best at something, then it should be cited. To the uninitiated, like myself, it seems like it may be PoV to make that claim. If I were to say that Michael Jordan was the best basketball player of all time, I'd get a lot of flack for that. If you could just cite one of those myriad sources, then it will be the published author's point of view and not the editors of Wikipedia. Keep up the great work.-- E va b d 13:13, 22 November 2006 (UTC)
Thanks a lot for the information on Bradman. It looks like quite an achievement. I've played cricket only a handful of times (infinitely more than most of my countrymen, though) and can understand the feat that it is to score that many centuries. Just batting against my mates I never got more than 25 runs. One problem that I see with declaring any sportsmen "the greatest" is that it is always going to be comparing apples to oranges. Michael Jordan may be a great basketball player, but if he were playing with Wilt Chamberlin, he may have been seen as average. Though undoubtedly extremely talented, Mr Bradman may have looked a little less great if he were batting against bowlers of a different era. Now...all that being said, I appreciate your quick response to my citation request and will commence shutting my mouth on the issue. Have a great Thanksgiving Day tomorrow :) -- E va b d 14:36, 22 November 2006 (UTC)

Hello! The Bradman text only specifies batsmen whose careers have finished because I changed it! I only changed it because Hussey's achievement made it no longer true! I think having the table of Test averages on the Bradman page is marginally undesirable, but I am quite willing to go along with it if you think it would be better there. I think it only needs to show, at most, the top three: it had grown into a very long list! The article documents Bradman's achievements, not Test records!

Posting at ANI was not wrong per se, but the matter probably didn't seem urgent and so was probably ignored by most admins. To complain about personal attacks or incivility, WP:PAIN is probably the best place, but I can't quote a direct violation of policy here. I hope the removal of the lists at the talk page settles the matter, and time is spent mostly improving the article and finding sources, not arguing.

Thanks for your thanks, no problemo, cricket is a passion of mine, and I have a mind to a systematic improvement of every WP cricket-related article. I have just used the same succession box editing technique on Greg Chappell to add his career total runscoring record achievements. Darcyj 12:03, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
I'm afraid I didn't make those four graphs, I only made the overall graph under 'career highlights'. The graphs you are referring to were made by User:Zaheen if you'd like to contact him about them. Raven4x4x 23:07, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
Hey! Thanks for the Barnstar on my userpage. A very pleasant surprise - always good to know that one's efforts are appreciated! Here's to three points against the Owls tomorrow. -- EH74DK 11:35, 8 December 2006 (UTC)

Sorry to bother you again, but would you care to comment on: Wikipedia_talk:Reference_desk#Opinions_on_template_removal ? StuRat 21:39, 9 December 2006 (UTC)
Hi - hope all is well. Saturday's game was dreadful... Anyway, I was surprised to see that Mr Adams didn't have an article on here yet, so I thought you might be interested to know that I've put one up. Again, it's still a stub. -- EH74DK 18:17, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
In general, metacomments, where you are talking to other editors about the quality of their posts, should be on their talk pages or on the Ref Desk talk page rather than the project page, where you should be furnishing answers to the original questioner. Please also note that I had spent the past hour on posts defending the original questioner against attacks stating that he/she was likely a troll, and also that I said "The questioner probably should take it to someone qualified to examine and evaluate it, to make sure it is authentic, find out the value for insurance purposes, and make sure it is framed with archival materials, or whether it should be kept out of the light," which is not "focusing only on whether it is genuine" as you stated.

Did you delete this page: Sean Harnett. If so THANK YOU SO MUCH! I've been trying to get it deleted for over 2 hours. If it wasn't you. Please thank whoever did. Thanks! Avraham 10:54, 13 December 2006 (UTC)
Hi. I appreciate the sentiment behind your comments. As an example of a recent dispute we have gotten into,
I'd like to try to falsify information with sources and logic, before I remove it, as you suggest. I have been doing this. I get reverted. Morwen - Talk 12:56, 13 December 2006 (UTC)
