Disambiguation link notification for September 23 edit

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited All-Australian team, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Robert Murphy, Sam Mitchell and Michael Hurley. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

re: Cricket editing edit

Hi LabRats. Easiest thing to do is copy the existing formatting/layouts from another article. Take a look at the 2015–16 Matador BBQs One-Day Cup for example. Hope that helps. Lugnuts Dick Laurent is dead 08:39, 14 October 2015 (UTC)Reply

Hey, just saw your question on Lugnuts' talk page, hope you don't mind be butting in. I'd also add that if you have any specific questions, WT:CRIC is a great place to ask, there's generally plenty of experienced editors there happy to help. Also WT:AFL for footy stuff.

re: Big Bash League edit

Hi. I'm not sure how it's done. TBH, I've stayed away from that whole section as IMO I don't know what value it adds to the article! Lugnuts Dick Laurent is dead 07:48, 25 January 2016 (UTC)Reply
