Here's a list of pages with the most links and that haven't been created.

So, if you've got some spare time and wish to help, get amongst it!

Is there a way we can make it so only the person who has made the article can edit it. Because we see people doing hard work, then it getting all deleted because of some idiot who wants to be funny. It happens alot on wikipedia.

Or make it so it's members only or something.

I would agree with members only for the moment, making it easier to ban vandals.

How do you add a contents to the page? And tables so I can put stats in.

By the way guys, here's a rough copy of my Gilly page so far.

Something like that

Yeah, on wikipedia they don't allow photos from companies (eg. copyright).
So I thought that may be the case here. So I just added a photo I took.

Ahh ok. Sorry mate didnt realise. Could Cricipedia clear it up wether we are allowed to use them?

 

[smssia0112]

Could I also ask how you intend to put cricket teams in?

On wikipedia you have 'Australian national cricket team' but I think that just 'Australia' or 'Bangladesh' would do. Try to keep it at one only and clarify to stop duplicate article.

For now, use any image you want I guess. When the site becomes huge and companies start calling the lawyers, then we'll worry about it.

Well, you can always roll back to a previous version but I see what you mean.

Maybe I'll make it so only members can edit for now.

EDIT: Members only now

I won't be able to do the rest of the Gilchrist page tonight. But I'll add more over the next couple of days. It's hard work.

Just made a few minor changes to the article, added a similar box to the Gilly article posted by Sean. Looks much nicer now

Your piece is good and I admire the formatting (would never be patient enough to do that,) but check this paragraph please.

His career at Natal didn't quite go to plan however, as he was forced out of the team in place of an inferior off-spinning all-rounder, because of his race. The South African quota system stated that each team must have a set proportion of black players, something that Natal didn't conform to with Pietersen in the side.

Inferior is a bit emotive. Perhaps the name Gulam Bodi may be worth it and the fact that although KP mentioned (IIRC) that he would never play international cricket, he did in the World T20. Also, Bodi is Indian, not black.

I'll do a bit during the weekend for this fantastic project.

I love the idea. A site that provides great, and detailed info on cricket is awesome.
