Talk:2005 British & Irish Lions tour to New Zealand

message: There needs to be a discussion on how the scores are displayed. Currently it is highly confusing as the home score is shown on the left and the away score on the right. I assume that this is an American convention. For Britons this looks backwards as our convention is to show the Lions score first and then the hosts. If you look at the table the last score has been entered the British way 23-6 not 6-23, that is why I edited the scores.
My suggested solution is to change the table so that the scores are written like this 'Lions 23-6 Wellington'.GordyB 22:30, 16 Jun 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: No it's not, the home team's score always comes first, unless you Scots are somehow backwards.  The other convention is to put the winning side first, but that just complicates things since we've lost one already... Dunc|☺ 09:38, 17 Jun 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: Despite the name I'm not Scottish. To me it seems logical to put the Lions score first since the Lions are the subject of the table. Anybody else got an opinion?GordyB 11:56, 17 Jun 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: I've changed round the final scores to conform to the system used for the other scores. I won't change the format of the table unless others agree with me.
When I said that the convention is to put the touring team first I meant in tables of this kind it is the convention. As you say normally the home team score comes first.GordyB 22:33, 17 Jun 2005 (UTC)

message: I'm not sure why this article hasn't been included in WikiProject Rugby union; it clearly qualifies. It also requires further work to avoid the argumentative approach adopted in writing about some aspects of the tour. I've had a stab at this, but there's still room for improvement - Jimmy Pitt (talk) 02:53, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

message: Can those that keep removing the flag and starting unnessacary edit wars please use the talk point to air their reasons for these unhelpful edits. The IRFU flag was used with the reasoning that is there to highlight the united provinces of Ireland as the Republic and Ulster flags cannot be used separately.
:The IRFU flag is copyright and will be removed accordingly.GordyB (talk) 12:46, 30 March 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Come on guys. Put a bit of effort in here. Rather then just undoing edits maybe it would an idea to get more involved and carryout decent edits. I've now removed   all the flags so are to give an overall more uiform look to the page  (Anthony of the Desert (talk) 21:28, 30 March 2009 (UTC)
