Peter Sagan
Just wrote about his HUGE win today, did you watch it??? Nail-biting stuff. Mattsnow81 (Talk) 18:14, 3 April 2016 (UTC)
- Yep, saw the ending while flicking between the cricket final today. Amazing stuff! Hopefully see all of the Pairs-Roubaix next weekend. Lugnuts Dick Laurent is dead 18:39, 3 April 2016 (UTC)

- Yep, race time again. The whole thing is being shown on Eurosport (in the UK). Starts in about 1hr from now. Lugnuts Dick Laurent is dead 07:25, 10 April 2016 (UTC)
- HERE!!! Sad for Sagan and Cancellara at PR. Did you see Sagan bunny-hop the bike of Cancellara as the latter crashed? Incredible lol. Unfortunately Sagan's best helpers, Bennatti, Gatto and Bodnar, are all injured. He really has a shit team. Anyway, it was a great race, I never predicted Hayman would win. He seemed shocked lol.

- He should have been--destiny wanted Boonen to win. Sagan's bunny hop was amazing; he's really that good, isn't he. I think what was proven today is that mullets aren't winners.

- @Drmies: It was all game over when Cancellara crashed. I too would have loved to see Boonen win out of that group. Did you see the embarassing crash in the velodrome? Poor Cancellara. It really wasn't his day. And weather-wise, snow is predicted today in Quebec and that is not even a joke. Can't wait to ride!

Re WP:NCRIC
Hi Lugnuts.
Thanks for the pointer. You learn something everyday. But I do think it streteches the bounds of notability. C'est la vie!

Disambiguation link notification for April 10
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Kunal Lal, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Ghaziabad (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.

Merge proposal
Hi Lugnuts, what do you think of my merge proposal of the lists of Olympic sailors. See Talk:List of sailors at the Summer Olympics. Cheers, Sander.v.Ginkel (Talk) 18:49, 13 April 2016 (UTC)
April 2016
Your recent editing history at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Reactions to the 2016 Brussels bombings (2nd nomination) shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.
Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

.
During a dispute, you should first try to discuss controversial changes and seek consensus. If that proves unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection. Mike V • Talk 13:08, 14 April 2016 (UTC)

Lugnuts (block log • active blocks • global blocks • autoblocks • contribs • deleted contribs • abuse filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock)
Request reason:
Decline reason:
If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired.
- You were warned above at 6:58 to stop and acknowledged the message a minute later. However, you continued to engage in the same behavior four minutes later. In addition, you continued to make personal attacks towards the other individual. If you have a concern about the individual editing your comments, edit warring with him is not the way to go. Instead, you should continue that conversation on ANI or with other administrators. Another user's conduct should not influence your own behavior. Mike V • Talk 13:29, 14 April 2016 (UTC)
- I would have to say that in a passing observation, this block is not helping Wikpiedia, it is way after the event and is thus just punative rather than preventative. Nobody wants to bother with ANI, it's a dramapit from which little good comes. I would be happy to unblock assuming Lugnuts guarantees that he will not pursue the personality differences between him and the other editor via edit warring, i.e. be good. The Rambling Man (talk) 13:32, 14 April 2016 (UTC)
- @The Rambling Man: - Of course - consider the matter dropped. Thanks. Lugnuts Dick Laurent is dead 13:34, 14 April 2016 (UTC)
- The edit warring was only a few hours ago, I don't think it's fair to call that way after the event. The block isn't punitive in any way, I'm not quite sure how you are drawing the conclusion. Looking at the Lungnut's block log, there is a concerning trend of blocks being issued and unblocks being made after promises to cease his edit warring or personal attacks. However, it's becoming clear that these promises are not being kept. Mike V • Talk 13:41, 14 April 2016 (UTC)

The Rambling Man (talk) 13:32, 14 April 2016 (UTC)
- @Mike V: - fair enough. It was in the middle of heated discussion. Is that an excuse for doing that? No, of course not. It was frustrating having my AfD comments edited by another user, which has lead to this. I can only apologise. Thanks. Lugnuts Dick Laurent is dead 14:11, 14 April 2016 (UTC)
- The block is punitive because it is not preventing any ongoing disruption. That ended hours ago. The Rambling Man (talk) 14:34, 14 April 2016 (UTC)
- There's still a present concern about Lugnuts's reoccurring behavior, particularly the persistent personal attacks and edit warring after being asked to stop. (As I've noted above) In the previous block discussion, Lugnuts was advised by others to be mindful of content disputes and I don't see any improvement in that behavior. I genuinely feel that this is not punitive. It's certainly not retaliation or meant to disparage. It's not punishing, as the block was reasonable (only 24 hours) and was issued as soon as I noticed the issue. If the issues occurred a week ago, I'd agree that a block would be inappropriate and a warning would suffice. As edit warring and personal attacks have been a persistent issue, the block addresses a current conduct issue of concern. As such, I would have to disagree with an unblock at this time. If you still feel that an unblock is in order, I think we should bring this to AN to get a wider array of input. Mike V • Talk 16:24, 14 April 2016 (UTC)
-
- That previous block you reference was a bad block by @Ritchie333: (please ask him). Thanks for spending your half-a-dozen daily edits here trying to address this and thanks to Rambles for sticking his neck out. It's clearly punitive, as the matter in hand ended hours before you showed up. Still, it's nearly tomorrow, so not to worry. Persistent? Getting angry to get six or seven blocks every 500,000 edits doesn't sound persistent. I wish others were as passionate about the project as a whole. Lugnuts Dick Laurent is dead 16:40, 14 April 2016 (UTC)
- I was not referring to the block but the requests made by the other contributors. Huon stated, "As an aside, you should probably be a little more careful about what you revert as vandalism." Ritchie333 stated, "Still, as others have hinted at, mind your content disputes - when dealing with these issues, revert + template isn't too effective in getting the message across." Comments such as "Thanks for spending your half-a-dozen daily edits here trying to address this ..." are uncivil and highlights the exact behavior that concerns me. I would encourage you to reconsider the things you say to other users before you submit them. It's not beneficial to the project and is demeaning to our fellow contributors. I must warn you that continuing this behavior could lead to further warnings and/or blocks. Mike V • Talk 16:51, 14 April 2016 (UTC)

- That was meant as a compliment! Obviously you'll disagree, as per the punitive block. Thanks for your help though. Lugnuts Dick Laurent is dead 17:00, 14 April 2016 (UTC)

- While some of the early restorations were of content that could strictly be called a personal attack, the later were not. As such, the later reverts were restoring content that another user inappropriately edited out of Lugnut's signed comments. Given the circumstances, I don't think a block, especially one so late, was warranted.—Godsy(TALKCONT) 17:05, 14 April 2016 (UTC)
-
- Thanks Godsy, but Mike's made his mind up on the basis of a previous bad block (which I knew would be used against me at some point). The wolves are no doubt circling, but this will be over in a few hours and then I can get back to reverting a lot of BLP vandalism that I've just spotted on my watchlist. So I guess this punitive block is "beneficial to the project". Happy days. Lugnuts Dick Laurent is dead 17:10, 14 April 2016 (UTC)
- Sorry Slugnut, it looks as though overturning Mike's punitive block would be considered wheel-warring so I'll have to leave it. I know you were not going to damage Wikipedia but Mike has other ideas. See you tomorrow, no hard feelings I hope? The Rambling Man (talk) 18:45, 14 April 2016 (UTC)
- Fair enough. Yeah, he's not going to admit it's punitive becauase, well, y'know. His daily 10 minutes of toil is for the good of the project, I guess. No hard feelings at all. Thanks again for saying you don't support the block in the first place - I'm genuinely appreciative of that. Hehe, Slugnut. Lugnuts Dick Laurent is dead 19:09, 14 April 2016 (UTC)

Creation of a new page

- Nevermind, I've found him. Give me a second to create him! Lugnuts Dick Laurent is dead 06:45, 18 April 2016 (UTC)

Also one more help I need is that if u can please change the heading of umpire Nand Kishore's page from Nand Kishore (cricketer, born 1970) to Nand Kishore (umpire)... Thanks... Cheers... Cricket246 (talk) 07:26, 18 April 2016 (UTC)

- That individual had a lengthy first-class career, so the current name is fine, and Nand Kishore (umpire) redirects there too. Lugnuts Dick Laurent is dead 07:52, 18 April 2016 (UTC)
- That's fine then... Thanks... I wanted to ask about 1 more thing? Can't we add a photo of the 12 elite panel umpires in their respective Wikipedia pages? Then the top umpires' pages will be complete... Won't it be good? Cricket246 (talk) 15:46, 18 April 2016 (UTC)

- Photos would be great, but they have to be free images. I don't know too much about them and the only photos of real people I've ever added are ones I've taken myself. Maybe start a thread at WT:CRIC about getting more guidance on how to do this. Lugnuts Dick Laurent is dead 17:59, 18 April 2016 (UTC)

I found Annemarie Bischofsberger on shortest bios-though her reference does not seem to go to her and it says "name not found" on her page. Wgolf (talk) 04:52, 18 April 2016 (UTC)

So It would be easy for his fans to search him on google with only Abhinav Kumar. Sir, you please use for the cricketer, Abhinav Kumar (Cricketer). Thanks sir.User_talk:Shivamroy22 07:45, 25 April 2016
- Abhinav Kumar is a rising cricketer. There may be a point in the future when one of them is a household name. It could be the cricketer. I'm struggling to find any significant coverage on the actor. Lugnuts Dick Laurent is dead 07:54, 26 April 2016 (UTC)
- Sir, Actually my life is depend on this article. I request you a lot, please sir let me create the article with this name. And sir, for the cricketer, use Abhinav Kumar(cricketer). Please sir, it's my humble request for you. Thanks — Preceding unsigned comment added by Shivamroy22 (talk • contribs) 10:20, 26 April 2016 (UTC)

- @Ytfc23: My (or Cricinfo's) bad on this one. I've just gone back through on why I created this bio, and it was from the red link at New Zealand cricket team in England in 2015 in the List A tour match. The current scorecard has the correct player. Looking at webarchive, it shows this guy instead. Good spot! Thanks. Lugnuts Dick Laurent is dead 11:55, 4 May 2016 (UTC)
Hey. You voted keep on [1] and I added a new discovery to the discussion which would change the foundation of your argument. Please take a look at it. If you could, change your vote to delete. CerealKillerYum (talk) 03:07, 28 April 2016 (UTC)
Series of disruptive edits in the page of Chris Morris (cricketer)
Lugnuts, there has been a series of disruptive edits in the page Chris Morris (cricketer)... The earlier correct information have been tampered with and all the edits are Suspected as vandals... As there are too many edita it's a tad difficult for me to deal with the matter all by myself so I thought it might be wiser to ask for help from the more experienced members... I request you to take a look into this and make the reverts and corrective edits as necessary as the page has been terribly affected by a series of disruptive edits... Thanks... Cheers...

Best time to shut up
After the 2016 Paris-Roubaix, Planckaert declared that second-placed Tom Boonen should have made a deal with eventual winner Matthew Hayman in order to fix the race and let Boonen win. [2] Mattsnow81 (Talk) 13:18, 30 April 2016 (UTC)

Umpires for England vs Sri Lanka Test series
Today morning I had sent an email to the ICC enquiring about the umpiring appointments for the aforementioned series and they have sent me the details of the appointments via email... That's why I edited the page to make it more informative as I got verified and conclusive information from the ICC itself via email... My edits were not disruptive edits or vandalism I can assure you... Cricket246 (talk) 14:53, 8 May 2016 (UTC)
- @Cricket246: - unfortunately an email (even from the ICC) fails WP:V and isn't a reliable source on its own. I'm in no way saying your edits are disruptive, but we can only add what is verified from reliable sources. For cricket scorecards we mainly go with the Cricinfo scorecards as and when they're updated. There is no deadline, so there's no rush to put the info on the article yet. And the first Test isn't for another 11 days, so the umpires could change (sickness, family reasons, etc). Once the scorecards show them, we're good to go!

- Ok... That's fair enough... Thanks for such a nice explanation... I've understood it... Will keep this in mind... Will stick to the protocols as instructed... Thanks... cheers... Cricket246 (talk) 16:33, 8 May 2016 (UTC)

@Lugnuts: Can you please explain to me the break in formatting and issue of hierarchy because of which PeeJay2K3 reverted my edits in Eng vs SL and Eng vs Pak pages? I want to know what hierarchy matter is all about.... Thanks... Cheerios... Cricket246 (talk) 16:45, 8 May 2016 (UTC)
- Probably best to raise that on the article's talkpage or on PeeJay's talkpage for an explanation. Lugnuts Dick Laurent is dead 16:47, 8 May 2016 (UTC)
- (talk page stalker) @Cricket246: First of all, you don't need to ping Lugnuts on his own talk page. Second, please look at this. Look at the table of contents. Do you not notice anything odd regarding the "England" and "Ireland" sections? They should not be the same level as the other headers, they should be the top-level headers, under which all of the other headers come. That's why I keep reverting you. – PeeJay 19:03, 8 May 2016 (UTC)
@PeeJay2K3: Firstly I'm relatively new to Wikipedia and not yet familiar with the various conventions that's why I pinged Lugnuts and I don't think it matters that much but still I'll definitely keep it in mind the next time... Anyway secondly I just wanted to clear out my confusions on the matter... I didn't wish to put up an argument as u are a much more experienced editor than me hence you are correct and your edits should stay anyway... I just wanted to understand where my edits went wrong as I wanted to rectify my mistakes and contribute better to Wikipedia... I posted earlier in your talk page but I didn't get any reply that's why I asked Lugnuts today... I never intended to fight or argue on this, just wanted to know where I erred in order to improve my editing... Anyway that's fine... No hard feelings... I have understood the explanation... Thanks for it... Fair enough reverts... U are more experienced than me so obviously you know things a lot better... I'll definitely stick to the protocols from the next time... I'm neither your enemy nor was I trying to oppos e you... I just wanted to learn the right thing... So I would say that maybe a bit more compassionate way/tone of speaking or explaining by you wouldn't have caused any harm... Anyway thanks mate... Cheers... Cricket246 (talk) 19:32, 8 May 2016 (UTC)
Cricket articles
Hello Lugnuts. I just want to appreciate your contributions for WP:CRIC. You are the major force to make me believe that this cricket project will be better one day than others e.g. baseball. We still have tens of thousands of cricket biographies missing. I trying my hard to make it better as ever. WP:Baseball has 65,000 total articles (including everything e.g categories, files and templates) and we have 36,500. I hope we will have that number up to 100,000 one day. GreenCricket (talk) 17:15, 8 May 2016 (UTC)
- Thanks for the kind words, GC! I've got plans to work through lots of missing biographies. I've made dents into many first-class lists from Test playing nations. I know others are doing their fair share too, so hopefully that 100,000 isn't too far away! Lugnuts Dick Laurent is dead 17:20, 8 May 2016 (UTC)
- Gentlemen, if both of you don't mind can I also join this Project? I would love to work on this and help Wikipedia... I'm a huge cricket lover and would love to contribute to it, be it here in Wikipedia or anywhere else... Cricket246 (talk) 00:00, 9 May 2016 (UTC)
Thanks...:) Cricket246 (talk) 01:45, 12 May 2016 (UTC)
Edits in Wikipedia
Lugnuts, can I please have a little bit of your precious time? I just wanted to discuss about something important if you have time... Can I? Cricket246 (talk) 08:04, 11 May 2016 (UTC)
- Yep - fire away! Lugnuts Dick Laurent is dead 08:04, 11 May 2016 (UTC)
Can you please tell me how to join the Cricket Project in Wikipedia? I want to join it but I'm totally clueless... Cricket246 (talk) 01:44, 12 May 2016 (UTC)
- You could add your name to the list via this. I've not done it myself. Just being active in editing cricket-related articles makes you a member of the project by default. I focus on my areas of interest and keep a watch of the Project's talkpage. That's about it, really! There's no formal joining process for this (or any) project. You can always add the user boxes your user page if you wish. For example, on mine, you can see the ones for cricket, cycling and the Olympics. And the film one too. Lugnuts Dick Laurent is dead 06:58, 12 May 2016 (UTC)
I want to put the cricket one... How can I do that? Cricket246 (talk) 11:20, 12 May 2016 (UTC)
- I've added it to your user page. Feel free to change the layout. Lugnuts Dick Laurent is dead 11:21, 12 May 2016 (UTC)
Thanks a lot... Always indebted to you for your help... :) Cricket246 (talk) 14:06, 12 May 2016 (UTC)
