Photo needs replacing

The photo on the page has a caption which says "Floodlights of Eden Gardens". Not really, it shows traffic lights somewhere outside the ground. Anyone got the right image? Moriori 08:34, August 25, 2005 (UTC)

The floodlights are in the distance, one can be seen above the car in the center of the picture. But I agree, this ground requires a much better photo to do it justice. Parthepan 09:44, 14 September 2005 (UTC)

No of ODI and TEST played at Eden garden

The figures shows here are not correct and take from a old article about the venue see here

http://stats.rleague.com/tc/venues/26.html and http://stats.rleague.com/odi/venues/78.html shows some recent stats but are not up to date

Largest apart from...?

Article states that Eden Gardens is largest cricketing facility in world apart from the MCG. Just curious how this "largest" thing is measured. I presume this means the actual physical size of the stadium, because in terms of seating capacity Eden Gardens would seem to be larger than MCG (ie 120,000 vs 100,000). bolshy 03:47, 29 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:EdenGardens.jpg

Image:EdenGardens.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Just a quick point.

I just can't be sure of that seating figure, it seems high given the picture used to illustrate the ground (look at the difference to the picture of the MCG). I think the ground's capacity may be 120,000 (sitting and standing) but I don't know it still seems high given the attendance figures for recent events. Maybe an Indian cricket fan may be able to confirm this, know where to get some info etc.
