message: I have removed a link that goes directly to a cricket-bat store. Unlike in say the article Apple Inc. which is a noteable firm and the link is 'valid', this links goes to just one of thousands of retailers selling cricket-bats. Please do not re-add this to the site, wikipedia is not a tool for free advertising, regardless of whether the link is relevant to the entry described. ny156uk (talk) 22:39, 20 March 2008 (UTC)

message: I don't think a small list of films and books in which cricket bats are used as a weapon really adds anything. AlmostReadytoFly (talk) 07:27, 15 July 2009 (UTC)

message: I propose that Traditional Indian cricket bat be merged into cricket bat. The content in the Traditional Indian cricket bat article can easily be explained in the context of cricket bat, and the cricket bat article is of a reasonable size in which the merging of Traditional Indian cricket bat will not cause any problems as far as article size or undue weight is concerned.

replies: text: The article is a part of Wikipedia:India Education Program/Courses/Fall 2011/Research Methodology Year 3 Group B. As I have got lots of content to be added in the article I would request you to give me some time as I m woking on it. If it still can be merged with the cricket bat article , feel free to do so.

replies: text: WHAT? Umm... okay, but I still feel that a merger is in order. I still don't see a reason why the traditional Indian bat deserves to be a stand-alone article. Ratibgreat (talk) 11:08, 22 September 2011 (UTC)

text: Agree with Merge
It is also proposed that Mongoose (cricket bat) be merged into this article, as it is merely a stub and any additional info would benefit the short para in Variations Chalky (talk) 00:30, 2 December 2012 (UTC)

message: A merger of the new article How Cricket bats are made? has been proposed. Before considering the proposal based on the content, I already object on the grounds that that article is unreferenced. Largoplazo (talk) 23:40, 7 October 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: Yeah, the new article seems to be a load of OR junk and should just be deleted. Spike 'em (talk) 08:30, 8 October 2018 (UTC)
