Firstly, I hope you don't mind me adding a message underneath your note above. |
|||
*On Bradman; thanks for picking up my error with the paper.[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Donald_Bradman&diff=prev&oldid=212490956] I will have to check my source when I get home as I find it strange that I would read it with the meaning swapped 180 degrees. Either I have poor comprehension or the source was poorly written. |
|||
*On Trott; I have been meaning to thank you for the modern-day photo of Trott's house. What a great idea! Thanks again for the copy-editing on the Trott article as well. The article is much improved. I am not sure if your message above means you have finished with that article as well but I would love to hear of any other ideas you have for improvements to it |
|||
*On Trumble; you may have noticed it is now listed as a Featured Article. Thanks for your support at FAC, thanks for your advice during the composition of the article and many thanks for the images that you found for it. |

== Bradman == |

Thanks for [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Donald_Bradman&diff=212492555&oldid=212451430 this] What's meant by "the final"? It reads like the competition has been named, but it hasn't. --[[User:Dweller|Dweller]] ([[User talk:Dweller|talk]]) 09:22, 15 May 2008 (UTC) |

==Trott== |
|||
Thanks for the ongoing work on Harry. I love the section headings such as "A national institution" and the expoansion of the section on Albert. I have added Whitington to the references section [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Harry_Trott&diff=213374972&oldid=213371449 here]. I assume this is what you have used; if I am wrong please correct or let me know and I will fix it.

:Trott is coming together nicely. Just a thought and I don't know how it could be included without verging into OR but it is interesting that the omission of Albert Trott from the 1896 tour followed criticism earlier about George Giffen's inclusion of his brother Walter in the 1894 tour. I wonder if this had an impact on Trott's thoughts at the selection table. Cheers, [[User:Mattinbgn|Mattinbgn]]\<sup>[[User talk:Mattinbgn|talk]]</sup> 01:37, 5 June 2008 (UTC) |

Thanks for picking up the error. A subtle misunderstanding of the ref on my part. Do keep editing. '''[[User:Blnguyen|<font color="GoldenRod">Blnguyen</font>]]''' (''[[User talk:Blnguyen|<font color="#FA8605">bananabucket</font>]]'') 03:26, 19 May 2008 (UTC) |

==Another photo request== |
|||
This may a tricky one but I am looking for a photo of [[Brian Booth]] as part of the Oz Captain project. There may be (just) a pre-1955 image that may be suitable for use in the infobox. Even a head-shot from his hockey days would be useful. Thanks once again. -- [[User:Mattinbgn|Mattinbgn]]\<sup>[[User talk:Mattinbgn|talk]]</sup> 21:09, 20 May 2008 (UTC) |

:You have figured out my cunning plan ... :-) Thanks for the help. There is no hurry so whenever and whatever you can do would be fine. Cheers, [[User:Mattinbgn|Mattinbgn]]\<sup>[[User talk:Mattinbgn|talk]]</sup> 10:04, 21 May 2008 (UTC) |

::Seconded. We need you here. As for editing conflicts, I think simply having a chat and Q&A session if you don't understand another editor's rationale for changing something, or disagree with something. It usually is just a misunderstanding or something. Everyone's easy going.

Hi Phanto. [[Harry Trott]] is now at FAC. [[User:Daniel|Daniel]] has raised some points that you may be better placed to answer than me, both relating to Trott's selection for the 1886 tour. One is about the proposed changes to the LBW law and the other is about the withdrawals from the tour. Any help you can give would be appreciated. Oh, and by the way, [[Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/Donald Bradman|Braddles is now at FAC]] as well. Cheers and thanks for your help to date. -- [[User:Mattinbgn|Mattinbgn]]\<sup>[[User talk:Mattinbgn|talk]]</sup> 10:55, 19 June 2008 (UTC) |
