Lede[edit]
- In the infobox you mentions "underarm", what does this means?
- "In 1892, they shared a partnership of 346 for the first wicket, an opening partnership that set a record for the County Championship and remains Somerset's highest first-wicket partnership." → "partnership" 3 times in the sntence, you may rephrase this.
- the "Five Batsmen of the Year" → why is this in quote?
- "....remained the record score for a Somerset batsman until 1948." → remained a record for a Somerset batsman until 1948.
University and county cricketer[edit]
- "Palairet scored six and zero and took one wicket...." → How can one score "zero" runs? You may rephrase this.
- Somerset that season played thirteen matches and won twelve of them and tied the other. → 13 and 12
- "Palairet played in ten of these matches and one his first appearance, scored a century against Leicestershire." → something is wrong with the sentence, I think it should be "on" instead of "one"?
- "county across his ten county matches was 31.11, placing him among the top ten batsmen..." → 10
- "Palairet used himself heavily as a bowler for the university in 1892; only George Berkeley bowled more deliveries." → needs ref
- ...who had injured himself fielding,.... → during fielding?
- "Although their record has since been beaten in first-class cricket,..." who broke the record, you may add a note.
- .....and claimed the only five-wicket hauls of his career. → "took" as you have already used "claimed" in the sentence.
- Link not out
Leading amateur batsman[edit]
- "...., on the latter occasion carrying his bat;" → "carrying his bat" needs explanation.
- ....a thousands runs... → 1,000
- for Somerset he scored six and zero → Same as above for zero
- "an average just below thirty," → 30.00
- "In 1898, Palairet topped 1,000 first-class runs...." topped with 1,000
- Is this "Headlingley" or "Headlingley"?
- ".....Somerset's second innigns, each scoring a century." → innings
Later county career[edit]
- In 1903, Palairet played eleven first-class matches. → 11
- "...during a ten wicket loss to ..." ten-wicket?
- "...against the touring Australians; Kent and Warwickshire,.." → I think semi-colon after Australians should be a comma.
- eleven eligible players for some → 11
- he played ten or more matches, → 10
Style and technique[edit]
- "He was a sure-handed catcher, occasional wicket-keeper, and medium-paced or lob bowler." needs ref
Notes and ref[edit]
- As of November 2012 → December
- ref# 64 is not formatted correctly, there may be others
Images[edit]
- All the images need alt text.
