The columns Batting and Bowling / Fielding do not seem appropriate. I would recommend that this be merged to form Speciality. Also, I am not sure if the acronyms such as ROB, RF, RMF etc. are standardly used acronyms and they do not point to the appropriate internal Wiki link. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mahesh venu (talk • contribs) 16:47, 20 February 2008 (UTC)

Hey, How about including http://chennaisuperkings.blogspot.com - the first and leading fan site of Chennai Super Kings in the External Links column?? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Robinsamuel (talk • contribs) 20:39, 10 April 2008 (UTC)

Rebel League

I think this sentence in Etymology section is irrelavant for this article and should be removed: Incidentally the Chennai based team playing in the ICL (the rebel league) are called the "Chennai Superstars". The rebel league is kind of a POV and wikipedia need not mention it. However a See also entry for Chennai Superstars seems relevant for the article. GDibyendu (talk) 15:26, 15 June 2008 (UTC)

Andrew Flintoff

I think Flintoff has been released from CSK's squad. Without him the foreign players count is 10 which is the maximum limit of foreign players in a squad. So please remove Flintoff from the roster. 171.159.64.10 (talk) 11:24, 1 April 2010 (UTC)

Trivia

right Please do not remove the trivia column.It is a very useful section depicting Super Kings' progress and individual perfomance in each tournament.

Also plz do not overload the content as the facts represented must be taken tournament by tournament.So only post statistics and records by chennai super kings in that particular tournament and not in the overall ipl database . A.arvind.arasu (talk) 04:42, 26 September 2010 (UTC)

Champions League

Please do not keep adding statistics of 2010 Champions League Twenty20 to the trivia section as it mainly focusses on the Indian Premier League.Remember Super Kings is more of an IPL side rather than a CLT20 participant.There is a seperate column for Champions League where you can update such statistics.

Flintoff out of Super Kings

Andrew Flintoff will no longer play for Super Kings as he has retired from all formats of game.He has been added to the list of former player in the roster.[1]

N. Srinivasan

I think the controversy, in which the Supreme Court asked that how N. Srinivasan, chairman of the BCCI, can be the owner of the CSK, should be added to the article. ♛♚★Vaibhav Jain★♚♛ Talk Email 08:34, 30 June 2012 (UTC)


why the name in Tamil has been removed, all other IPL teams wiki pages have their name written in their native language — Preceding unsigned comment added by 123.231.93.78 (talk) 08:04, 29 April 2013 (UTC)

Futurama reference?

Are they nammed after Bender's "super hero" identity, Super King? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.33.18.10 (talk) 19:21, 1 June 2013 (UTC)

This review is transcluded from Talk:Chennai Super Kings/GA3. The edit link for this section can be used to add comments to the review.

Reviewer: Ssriram mt (talk · contribs) 22:06, 7 June 2013 (UTC) I will take up the review of the page. Comments in a bit.Ssriram mt (talk)

Comments

  • quite some unreferenced portions in the article - "Chennai Super Kings has been the most controversial team in IPL", jersey colour section, By venue and awards/achievements.
  • references are provided as mere links for some refs - a uniform formatting style can remove dup references as well - check Wikipedia:CITE#General_references
  • quite some MOS - there are bolds in some portion and needs general copy-edit in most sections.
  • coverage - it is not broad. Actor vijay, Nayanthara were brand ambassadors, Dhoni being VP of Indian cements, sponsors, team popularity, rivalries - refer Manchester United F.C..
  • lot of irrelevant/peacock statements - "historic M. A. Chidambaram Stadium", "have an excellent record", "most controversial team".
  • some of the stats/figures need year (as of). Terms like "currently" needs to be removed.

Considering above and the coverage, i am failing this article.Ssriram mt (talk) 22:26, 7 June 2013 (UTC)

References issue is fixed now. I suggest you have a look at this article - Ottawa Senators. I rewrote the CSK article along the lines of the Senators article, which is a good article. Regarding rivalries, CSK does not have any, since IPL is a competition that started only five years ago. The same reason holds good for team popularity too - the league is not old enough to start talking about team popularity. Regarding brand ambassadors, I personally think it would fail the GA criterion 3b. The article is regarding a cricket team and addition of such unimportant details would only increase the off-field coverage. Sponsor details have been added. Don't see how "historic M. A. Chidambaram Stadium" is irrelevant. MAC Stadium is historic. It is the oldest stadium to be in continuous use in the entire country. I have removed the word "excellent", so hope that helps. About "most controversial team", my bad someone added that statement after I nominated the article for GA review. The statement has now been removed. The bolded texts have been removed as well. "currently" is a widely-used term in sports. The Senators article, too, uses the word quite often. Any feedback would be appreciated. Dee03 13:23, 8 June 2013 (UTC)
League competition is different from a puristic sports competition - so i dont believe it is a "cricket" article. Even in the Senators article, a big section on team identity covers entertainment/media aspects. Brand popularity, sponsors and ambassadors are primary part of any league. "Current" is about time - a caveat would be better, you can check in the same article. I havent checked the references individually - if you are done with all that(which i felt takes time) and other missing portions, you can it further. All the best.Ssriram mt (talk) 16:32, 8 June 2013 (UTC)
