A list on fifers taken in world cup matches, modeled based on the centuries list. Look forward to your comments and suggestions. —Vensatry (Ping me) 05:32, 25 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Comments
  • Any reason why there isn't any rowscopes on the bowlers?
  • Date format on ref 1, 5, 6 and 7 should be consistent with the other citations
  • Location needed for Ref 1 (Glasgow) Lemonade51 (talk) 16:24, 27 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
    • Is that mandatory. If so shouldn't we include that parameter for other refs too? —Vensatry (Ping me) 17:36, 27 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
See Wikipedia:REF#Newspaper_articles. Traditionally when it comes to newspaper-published articles, the location is included; that's one thing I learned at university. It isn't needed for web sources though. Lemonade51 (talk) 14:12, 28 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Quick comments
  • Would prefer to see Economy given to same precision every entry.
  • Table caption currently says "List of World Cup centuries".
  • Probably need to say that Won means the bowler's team won etc.
  • Caption says "Mcgrath", should be "McGrath".
  • Barry Wood and Geoff Lawson are dab links.
  • "County Ground, Northampton, Northampton " really don't need that first Northampton (compare it to the other County Grounds you have listed).
  • "he managed five" prefer "he took".
  • You could link 1979 Cricket World Cup Final etc in the lead.

Comments–
  • "...the third match of the tournament." which tournament? If it is referred to the 1975 then put "Five bowlers—Gary Gilmour, Ashantha de Mel, Glenn McGrath, Vasbert Drakes and Shahid Afridi—have performed this feat twice in the history of the tournament." at the end of the paragraph. I would do this either way if it was 1975 or not!
  • You have linked Bangladesh in the lead as well as in the footnotes, but not the other teams/countries?
  • "...in the semi-finals and finals..." → final? You may link the semi-finals and final to their corresponding articles.
  • You may also link the tournaments accordingly.
  • Check sorting for the runs and economy columns. —Zia Khan 04:51, 11 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    • Fixed all —Vensatry (Ping me) 17:13, 13 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
      • Minor ones: "semi-finals" should be "semi-final", and it would be better to specify that it was the first or second semi-final. Also, link "runs" in the lead. —Zia Khan 22:13, 13 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
        It should be pluralized since there were two semi-finals in the tournament, and I don't think it's necessary to mention which SF as Australia appeared in only one of those. Linked runs —Vensatry (Ping me) 03:55, 14 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Agreed. Of course there were two, but the fifer came from the one!? —Zia Khan 11:21, 14 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Agreed and as I said earlier, Australia played only one of those and there is no need to mention that it was not the NZ–WI match. —Vensatry (Ping me) 12:41, 14 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support – good work! Waiting for you at my nominations. —Zia Khan 23:09, 21 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • This list has been promoted. There may be a slight delay while waiting for the bot to process the nomination. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 07:56, 23 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
