thread_title: Citation for Annual Revenue

message: I was just running Wikipedia Cleaner over the Cricket Australia article trying to clean up links to dab pages. Found a problem with several in that they link to pages but I can't find the person that fits on the disambiguation page. That's the trouble with having a sea of red links waiting for articles to be created. Someone creates an article with that name and you wind up with a link to the wrong person and then when someone creates a dab page and the persons still not on it but the article has an active link. I'd suggest getting rid of all these red links. Just delinking them for now, unless any editors know of specific pages that apply. 
Active links to dab pages with no page listed for person so linked here are: Alan Barnes (New South Wales), David Richards (Victoria), Jack Clark (under board of directors), James Allen (Queensland) and John Gibson (New South Wales). they should really be delinked along with all the red links, but again if someone knows if they have an article under a different name variation then go ahead and link to them.

thread_title: Links to disambiguation pages

message: I'm not sure this is the right place to ask, but I'll try here.  Back in the 80s, or even earlier, a commentator got into a lot of hot water for describing an Aussie fielder as "running like a girl", and eventually apologised for causing any offence, but only after defending his comments for some time.  I remember it very clearly because I was watching the broadcast when it happened.  The papers and TV were full of comment about it, and feminist and other groups had a lot to say about it.  I am sure it was Bill Lawry, but I can't find any reference to it on either his page or on a google search.  Can anyone help me track this incident down?  --  JackofOz (talk) 22:28, 30 October 2008 (UTC)

message: Any Wiki-rules against the inclusion of criticism of the board related to John the bookmaker controversy, or is it just too trivial for this article? 
I was going to add it but I thought I better ask first than getting reverted later. —SpaceFlight89 (talk) 15:50, 25 June 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: This article is on my mental "to do" list, although I doubt I will get there time soon). Certainly, "John the Bookmaker" will get a run in it, as well as the :Big Six cricket dispute of 1912, :Bodyline, :World Series Cricket, various throwing controversies from the past 100 years, etc. etc. I would day go ahead and add it; it will look like WP:UNDUE at first but the rest of the article can fit around it. -- Mattinbgn\talk 23:47, 25 June 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Controversies? 

message: This is phrased as if the defeat to India was the reason that the Australian team ceased to play, not the strict border policies introduced by the Australian government on travel due to the Coronavirus epidemic.  While technically correct, am I the only one who sees this as misleading?
