Syed Mohammad Hadi

The Hadi article once had a screenshot of his obituary in Indian Express that got deleted for copyright violation - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Upload?wpDestFile=Syed_Mohammed_Hadi.jpg If admins can still access it, can someone please share this picture (via web.archive, google photos etc). For reference; not for reusing in wikipedia. Tintin 16:27, 22 November 2024 (UTC)

Yes, I can see the deleted image, and it contains nothing that would not be otherwise available in other reliable sources about Hadi. And no, I will most certainly not share it. For a start, please see WP:LINKVIO. --Shirt58 (talk) 🦘 10:49, 3 December 2024 (UTC)

Introducing Let's Connect

Hello everyone,

I hope that you are in good spirits. My name is Serine Ben Brahim and I am a part of the Let’s Connect working group - a team of movement contributors/organizers and liaisons for 7 regions : MENA | South Asia | East, South East Asia, Pacific | Sub-Saharan Africa | Central & Eastern Europe | Northern & Western | Latina America.

Why are we outreaching to you?

Wikimedia has 18 projects, and 17 that are solely run by the community, other than the Wikimedia Foundation. We want to hear from sister projects that some of us in the movement are not too familiar with and would like to know more about. We always want to hear from Wikipedia, but we also want to meet and hear from the community members in other sister projects too. We would like to hear your story and learn about the work you and your community do. You can review our past learning clinics here.

We want to invite community members who are:

• Part of an organized group, official or not
• A formally recognized affiliate or not
• An individual who will bring their knowledge back to their community
• An individual who wants to train others in their community on the learnings they received from the learning clinics.

To participate as a sharer and become a member of the Let’s Connect community you can sign up through this registration form.

Once you have registered, if you are interested, you can get to know the team via google meets or zoom to brainstorm an idea for a potential learning clinic about this project or just say hello and meet the team. Please email us at Letsconnectteam@wikimedia.org. We look forward to hearing from you :)

Many thanks and warm regards,

Let’s Connect Working Group Member

Redbourn Cricket Club

Please source this. Bearian (talk) 15:00, 11 December 2024 (UTC)

I don't think the club is in any way notable, so I'm surprised that the article has survived so long since it was created in 2009. So sourcing it would be a waste of time. (I imagine that in the reference to 1666 in the fist paragraph "country" is a typo for "county".) JH (talk page) 16:22, 11 December 2024 (UTC)

Changes to the project banner

Hi! I have made some changes to the project banner in its sandbox version:

• I have changed the image to this, which is similar to logo I added here.
• I have also added a few new notes;
  1. Cricket articles with no associated task force - Now that there are new task forces, this category would be helpful to keep track of articles.
  2. Former FA-Class cricket articles - already exists; but added a visible note to it.
  3. Former FL-Class cricket articles - already exists; but added a visible note to it.
  4. Former GA-Class cricket articles - would be useful to keep track of former GA pages as well.
  5. Current cricket articles - would be useful to keep track of current competitions.
• Cricket Collaboration - planning to begin it from February 2025.

Others, please let me know what your thoughts about this are... Vestrian24Bio (TALK) 11:44, 21 December 2024 (UTC)

Also, why is the to do list on a talk page, instead of a project page...? Vestrian24Bio (TALK) 11:53, 21 December 2024 (UTC)

WikiProject invite

@AssociateAffiliate and Joseph2302: Is there an invite template for the Cricket WikiProject, I tried searching but couldn't exactly find any... Vestrian24Bio (TALK) 16:22, 21 December 2024 (UTC)

There is one at Template:WikiProject Cricket welcome. JP (Talk) 18:40, 21 December 2024 (UTC)
