Thanks for your your contributions to Pakistan national cricket team, but...

Some of your edits may be unnecessary. I don't want to start an edit war, but I think that in an information box (top right hand side), abbreviations are much better. For example:

First Test match v India at Feroz Shah Kotla, Delhi, 16-18 October 1952

reads better than

First Test match v India at Feroz Shah Kotla, Delhi in India. From 18-16 October 1952

It's all about conciseness and reducing clutter; at least as far as I'm concerned. The corrections you made would be fine in the text body, just kind of pointless in titles and in the info box. If you agree, then I'd appreciate it if you undid your additions, as you know better where they are located. Thanks.

PS: I second the advice given by User talk:Managerarc. Take care, and thanks for using Wikipedia! bigforrap (talk) 16:49, 7 May 2010 (UTC)

Please do not use styles that are unusual, inappropriate or difficult to understand in articles, as you did in pakistan national cricket team. There is a Manual of Style that should be followed. Thank you. Some of your edits can be considered improvements of the writing already on the page, but some are just, lightly put, 'waffle'. I'm not concerned how you spend your time on Wikipedia, edit whatever you wish. But not everything needs editing. Sometimes, being short and concise is better than putting things into long sentences, conveying the same information. By all means work for the greater good, but I would like to discuss this issue with you. Ignoring messages is not the way to go...

Glad to have you here though :)

Hit me back please. bigforrap (talk) 13:12, 21 May 2010 (UTC)

Please read the document under the heading "Classification of Official Cricket" where it is clearly stated that first-class cricket is of three or more days duration: http://icc-cricket.yahoo.net/rules_and_regulations.php Thanks, RossRSmith (talk) 11:42, 25 May 2010 (UTC)

English

Your English is not good, contrary to what you think YellowMonkey (vote in the Southern Stars and White Ferns supermodel photo poll) 04:55, 3 June 2010 (UTC)

Reply: What did you say about my English? How dare you?; critising other people; you don't even now what your talking about. Your just jealous and what your saying is racial discrimination. If this happends again, i will report you for bad behviour. Were is your knowledge and proper behaviour. --Uqahr talk 05:22, 3 June 2010 (UTC)

Uqahr - whilst Yellow Monkey is perhaps a bit blunt, he has a point. Many of your edits introduce grammatical errors, and your reply to him indicates your poor English - criticising is spelt wrong, you've used now instead of know, your instead of you're (twice), added a d to happens, used a lower case I when it should be upper case and spelt behaviour wrong. Rather than reacting the way you have done, you should use it as an opportunity to improve your English. Andrew nixon (talk) 05:30, 3 June 2010 (UTC)

I don't want to argue. All i'm doing is improving the Test cricket article. I don't care what other people say? They are intitled to their own opinion and i have my right to my opinion also. They are just jealous. Thanks!-- Uqahr (talk) 05:41, 3 June 2010 (UTC)

You have to admit though that you did introduce a number of errors to articles - claiming that Afghanistan hosted the 2007 ACC Twenty20 Cup, claiming that only pace bowlers take the new ball, claiming that all Test matches start at 11am, claiming that all matches have a home team, etc... Opinions are opinions, but facts are facts. Get your facts right, and people will respect your opinions more. Andrew nixon (talk) 06:13, 3 June 2010 (UTC)

What did you say? User:AndrewNixon, I was only improving the writing form, alright. I wasn't doing anything wrong. Where are your evidence to support your accussation? Test matches in Australia begins at 11:00 am, ask any professional cricketer. Your wrong! and I don't care, there just jealous and your just jealous. --Uqahr (talk) 06:26, 3 June (UTC)

And in most countries they don't start at 11am. You're wrong. Admit it, move on and people will respect you. Andrew nixon (talk) 06:58, 3 June 2010 (UTC)

Reply: User:Andrew nixon, Who cares!, i'm not talking about other countries, i'm talking about Australia. Test matches in Australia traditionally starts at 11:00 am; if you have a questions see, Cricket Australia for further info, see http://www.cricket.com.au and ask questions there. I'm only following the Australian schedule. Uqahr (talk) 7:014 pm 3 June 2010 (UTC)

Except you put it in the article on Test cricket, where it is wrong. Andrew nixon (talk) 07:38, 3 June 2010 (UTC)

Reply: User:Andrew nixon, How often do i have to repeat this issue, "Do not ask me", i'm only improving these writings forms based on my knowledge of traditional Australian cricket. If you have questions why don't you ask Cricket Australia http://www.cricket.com.au and International Cricket Council http://www.icc-cricket.yahoo.net , there they will be able to help you. Don't ask me, i'm only cleaning up the writings, alright. The end! --Uqahr (talk) 08:03, 3 June 2010 (UTC)

You misunderstand what I am saying. I am not denying that Test matches in Australia start at 11am. YOur edit to the Test cricket article, which is about ALL Test cricket stated the following:

Playing periods are divided into three sessions. These are:

* First session: 11:00 am – 1:00 pm

* Second session: 1:40 pm – 3:40 pm

* Third session: 4:00 pm – 6:00 pm

This may be the case in Australia, and in England, but it is not the case everywhere. The first Test of the West Indies v South Africa series next week for example starts at 10am. On England's tour of Bangladesh earlier this year, they started at 9.30am. So those playing hours may be sufficient as an example of playing hours, but to say, as you did, that they apply to all Test cricket is wrong. If you want people to respect you, you have to admit when you are wrong.

And by the way, on Pakistan's tour of Australia in December/January, the first and third match started at 10:30am and the second started at 10am. Andrew nixon (talk) 08:31, 3 June 2010 (UTC)
