License tagging for Image:Murali.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Murali.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

• Wikipedia:Image use policy
• Wikipedia:Image copyright tags

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 18:11, 19 December 2006 (UTC)

Muralitharan

Please stop silently deleting the sentence pointing out that the one cited source for the player being the "best bowler in the world ever" has a clear antithesis, paritcularly involving another bowler, ie, Warne. In the interests of making the article a neutral source of information the counter claim must be made. Ansell 10:19, 26 February 2007 (UTC)

Your action is a clear breach of WP:NPOV and I will definitely invoke admin censure if it recurs, including your silent edits as mentioned by Ansell. For your information there is a wealth of cricket literature, including much that is recent, in which noted players give their opinion that Jim Laker was "the greatest off-spinner ever". Personally, I don't go along with that either as you cannot compare a player in the 1950s with one in the 2000s. All we can say is that they were both great bowlers, just as Rhodes, Larwood, Hadlee and Warne in their various styles were also great bowlers. --BlackJack | ^{talk page} 19:48, 13 April 2007 (UTC)

Thanks. And you are quite right to make the same change to Warne too. If you get any problems about that I'll support you. Best regards. --BlackJack | ^{talk page} 07:17, 14 April 2007 (UTC)

Muttiah Muralitharan

Hello there. Please stop deleting the refs from this article. It's a lot of time and work to do them. If there is a problem please take it to the talk page of the respective article.--Dakota 03:22, 16 April 2007 (UTC)

Murali article

Hi machan, I saw you were removing the jeer directed at Murali from the article. Unfortunately, like it or not, (and I certainly don't) the Australian crowds shouting "no-ball" at him will always be some of the most notorious memories of his career, and I think it should be included in the article. I did however change the text to "common" instead of "popular" cos not everyone shouted "No ball", and I also removed caps as it already mentioned that they were SHOUTING :)

Anyway, hope this is an agreeable compromise. If not either drop me a message or post a comment on the article talk page and I'm sure we can come to an agreement over it. Cheers! --snowolfD4 ^{( talk / @ )} 01:41, 30 June 2007 (UTC)

Machan please discuss your changes to the article if they are controversial, instead of just reverting. It'll save us all a lot of time. About your current edit, we usually don't make direct statements like "abc is the best [whatever]". That's always someones point of view and is impossible to prove. It's best to keep things in a way that is agreeable to everyone.

So if you have any problems with the text and want to improve it, please leave a message on the talk page and see what other users think about it. That will make things a lot easier for all of us. Cheers! --snowolfD4 ^{( talk / @ )} 04:11, 13 August 2007 (UTC)

Muralitharan POV

Another user, Blnguyen, reverted your edit to the article. However, I will address my own notification to you. The article is subject to a clear and ongoing dispute over its neutrality. Edits have been made according to WP:NPOV, but significant dispute remains. The tag indicating that it subject to a POV check should not be removed unilaterally or arbitrarily.

Your recent image upload

Hello. Please don't upload a new image over the existing image at Image:Murali.jpg without also updating the image's source and licensing details to match the new image. Wikipedia's image use policy requires that all images have accurate source and licensing details. --Muchness (talk) 18:48, 6 December 2007 (UTC)
