Did You Know
A fact from this article appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the "Did you know?" column on April 18, 2011.
The text of the entry was: Did you know ... that Lord's Cricket Ground in London has been the venue for four Cricket World Cup Finals matches?
Current status: Featured list

Comments

[edit]

Overall, a nice list, but there are a few issues that are immediately apparent:

  • The use of colour and shading as the only indicator of something fails WP:ACCESS, perhaps use (D/N) in addition to the shading to indicate that the match is a day/night contest. You could also link to the article on Day/Night cricket.

 Done I dint put it earlier as was not sure where to put it - Iv added it next to the venue now. Around The Globeसत्यमेव जयते 06:40, 5 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  • Personally, I'd prefer the columns to be reordered, so that the winner is the first thing listed after the year, giving that team the most prominence, rather than the host nation. I'd suggest: Year, Winner, Result, Runner-up, Host nation(s), Final venue

 Done - Iv changed it, Iv kept the final venue before the host as this is the finals list. Around The Globeसत्यमेव जयते 06:40, 5 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  • Would an additional column listing the "Man of the Match" be worthwhile? I'm not sure personally, but it might be worth experimenting with.

Does not seem to fit it - makes the other columns a bit too small. Around The Globeसत्यमेव जयते 06:40, 5 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  • Only one row (2011) is referenced: all of these should be referenced with the scorecard (which I wouldn't provide an external link to myself).

 Done added ref to each, rm scorecard. Around The Globeसत्यमेव जयते 06:40, 5 April 2011 (UTC) The lead has a few issues as well, but I'll have a look at working on some of these before commenting, though I might not get to them today. Harrias talk 14:46, 4 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

"Final appearances" values does not tally with "Winners" and "Runners-up" values

[edit]

please change the "Final appearances" value from "2" to "1" under the table "Results by country" where New Zealand has reached final only 1 time (not 2 times) before 2019 and it was a Runners-up team. The current version says it is 2 times and the numbers in "Winners" and "Runners-up" column does not match. SaravanaPB (talk) 16:57, 11 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
