After successfully getting List of five-wicket hauls in women's One Day International cricket to FL status, I present to you the corresponding list for the female stars who wield the bat in the one day format. As always, I am happy to address any and all points raised. Thanks in advance to all reviewers. Cheers – Ianblair23 (talk) 10:51, 7 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • I know this seems de facto standard for this kind of intersection, but I just think it would be neater if, after the intro to the WODI format, you could then go on to say how many WODIs have been played since the first, and then how many centuries have been scored, for context of its notability.
  • Also, somewhere would be nice to know how many games into that 73 WC we were before the two centuries in an innings were made. So maybe link this version of the WC to the 1973 version, and say something like "in the match of the 1973 WC"?
  • The opening match of the 1973 Women's World Cup was due to take match on Wednesday 20 June between New Zealand and Jamaica at Kew Green however your typical London weather prevented play taking place and the match was abandoned without a ball being bowled. Thus, preventing these 22 ladies making history in playing in what would of been the first ever Women's One Day International cricket match. The next three schedule matches all took place three days later on Saturday 23 June, the England v International XI was one of those matches. So, I have used the term "opening round". – Ianblair23 (talk) 12:39, 12 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • " being Nicole Bolton of Australia and " I would have a comma after Australia, to avoid "and and and" with no punc...
  • " one of 22" MOSNUM doesn't like this, so 1 of 22 or one of twenty-two.
  • "The most recent" probably needs an "as of" here.
  • "11 times" et seq, I would start with "eleven" so you can go to "nine" and "eight", rather than "9" and "8" which look a little amateurish for me.
  • " the 2017 World Cup" you previously qualified all instances with "Women's"
  • "from a total of 1,094 matches,[28] a total of 182 centuries" no need for the "a total of"s, just "182 centuries have been scored in 1,094 matches..."
  • "12, ahead of the Bristol County Ground with 7" twelve and seven.
  • Per your key, are they still referred to as "batsmen"?
  • As per the Summary of changes to the Laws of Cricket 2017 Code released by the MCC in April 2017, "The new Code of Laws is written in language applying to all persons, regardless of gender. The new Code includes an increased use of generic nouns like "fielder" and "bowler" and uses "he/she" when required, together with a broadened disclaimer covering all genders. The term "batsman" remains, however." So, it seems that those who were consulted on the updated Laws were happy for term to apply to the fairer sex, so that is the term that we shall use. – Ianblair23 (talk) 12:39, 12 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • When sorting date in reverse order, I'm surprised to see that the No. is very much not linear in reverse...
  • What's your rationale behind some venues having red links and some not being linked at all?
  • Outer Oval - the article says "while the Outer Oval also hosts domestic ODI and Twenty20 games." but doesn't mention WODIs, perhaps you could enhance that as a side benefit?!
  • You'll hate this, but as it's ODI and susceptible to World Cups, I've often seen "Home/Away/Neutral" columns in these kinds of lists....
  • I would argue that that would be redundant, especially as I have listed the country in the venue column – Ianblair23 (talk) 12:39, 12 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Not all notes are referenced?

That's all I have on my first dive in. Nice looking piece of work. The Rambling Man (talk) 20:35, 10 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hi TRM, thanks so much for your review. I have addressed each of your points inline above. Let me know what you think. Cheers – Ianblair23 (talk) 12:39, 12 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Comments from BeatlesLedTV
  • Spell out numbers one to twenty in the lead – MOS:NUMERAL. I know it only says one to nine but you have multiple instances of 11, 12, etc. that would look better spelled out. Also spell out 50. On top of that "one hundred" is spelled out once so make sure it's consistent.
  • Why is there a large space in the International XI boxes? It's looks like there's supposed to be a flag but isn't.

That's all I got. Great job to you! BeatlesLedTV (talk) 04:32, 11 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hi BeatlesLedTV, thank you kindly for the review. I have spelt out the numbers. Also, yes the space is intentional as the International XI does not have a flag. Cheers – Ianblair23 (talk) 12:39, 12 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Support – Gotcha. All good for me then. Great job! BeatlesLedTV (talk) 23:28, 12 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
