Dates for foundations of national sides[edit]

I have no grounds to doubt your edits, such as to Montserrat national football team, but given that neither RSSSF nor FIFA record any dates as early as you mention, I wondered where the information had been sourced. Thanks Kevin McE 22:03, 6 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I read this on the MFA website if I remember rightly before it vanished, I also remember requesting this information from the MFA at some point in the past and receving confirmation from them of the date, I will again check this to ensure it is correct. Thanks (Moses 22:22, 6 January 2007 (UTC))[reply]

Disambiguation link notification for April 17[edit]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited 2013 ICC World Cricket League Division Three, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page St. George's (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

World Cricket League[edit]

There was a discussion here on the Cricket Project (which if you have an interest in cricket I'd encourage you to join!) three years ago about what to include on scorecards, where including "all out" had no consensus. I always include "all out" at it is unambiguous to people who perhaps might not have the first clue about cricket terminology! It all depends how easy you want to make a scorecard look to people who aren't familiar with cricket. Howzat?Out!Out!Out! (talk) 21:21, 1 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

World Cricket League[edit]

If somebody can prove that this is being reduced in size then can you PLEASE refrain from changing how each division will be made up.
