Overview Googly75

I used to edit on Wiki a few years ago but for the life of me can't remember my passwords. Particularly intersted in general Cricket articles and the intricacies and history of the game.

I also feel there needs to be certain anglophilication to Wikipedia - for example do we really need to refer back to baseball when we talk about cricket and it's types of play? This applies to other sections of Wikipedia, a source for the whole world, not just the views of America.

I stopped using this a while ago based on some overzealous Wiki editor who had a go at me about copyright (i basically referenced the autobiography of a cricketer - but it was references were quoted and linked).

Cricket

I am a major

page. Cricket is the World's second biggest sport, so why does that need a baseball reference when explaining something?

If anyone wants to discuss making better general cricket pages, please contact me. Also am very eager to get Essex Player pages up to the standard of others. Especially Nasser Hussain and Graham Gooch. Both are cricket legends and their wiki pages do not reflect this. Then some gits come along and change everything. ARGHHHHHHH

Pages i'll one day hope to improve

• Graham Gooch
• Nasser Hussain
• Paul Prichard
• Derek Pringle
• Paul Grayson
• Essex County Cricket
• Norbert Goeneutte
• List of people from Brighton and Hove - why do people make half changes? Here there is a table for the As and Bs - but then lists for every other letter of the alphabet.
• Hove - this is a really sparse poorly constructed page. Needs an overhaul.
