PSL Map

Hi,

I just reverted this again. The teams are not in any way located in the cities represented on the map. That's what the caption f the map says. It's a joke to suggest that they do so - and it's, frankly, a joke to say any more than they nominally represent them - they certainly don't represent them per se but are simply named after them. Perhaps if, one day in the far distant future, home and away games are played (as in the BBL for example) then there's a case for the map. Until then - and despite the fantasy that a number of editors keep on pushing regarding the PSL - that simply isn't the case and the map is simply misleading editors who may have only a basic knowledge of the PSL, cricket or Pakistan.

Re: The location of the city that the team represents is of major relevance as it exhibits where the largest fan base of each team lies. I'm sure that was the intention behind the caption to let users with a "basic knowledge" know where the location of most fans is. If you do not approve, then change the caption rather than commenting out the entire map. - ProdigyUpdates 12:58, 5 April 2016 (UTC)

Does it? Is there any evidence whatsoever that there is a large fan base in any of those cities for that franchise? If there is then cite it! Frankly it seems nothing other than nominal to me at present - as I say if they ever play in Pakistan then I'd be entirely happy.

I'm going to revert I think and go to the article talk page to see if we can find consensus on this - I'll change the caption as well. If we don't get any responses on the article talk then I suggest we take it to WP:Cricket (say in a week or so - there's not a lot of history of talk on PSL pages (although we can take it to that wikiproject as well if you wish)). Thanks for responding here though - as I say, the history of responses on talk pages (or even sensible edit summaries) on PSL articles is almost nil.

Re: Please check the talk page on the PSL talk page. I have cited sources that clearly display the link between each franchise and its respective city. Thank you for holding this debate in a civil manner but I do not believe it is necessary to take this to WP:Cricket although you may certainly do if you wish to. However, till then, please do not revert the change again. Thanks. - ProdigyUpdates 20:58, 5 April 2016 (UTC)

Asian 10,000 Challenge invite

Hi. The Wikipedia:WikiProject Asia/The 10,000 Challenge has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge and Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The 10,000 Challenge. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. There's also the possibility of establishing smaller country or regional challenges for places like South East Asia, Japan/China or India etc, much like Wikipedia:The 1000 Challenge (Nordic). For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. At some stage we hope to run some contests to benefit Asian content, a destubathon perhaps, aimed at reducing the stub count would be a good place to start, based on the current Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon which has produced near 200 articles in just three days. If you would like to see this happening for Asia, and see potential in this attracting more interest and editors for the country/countries you work on please sign up and being contributing to the challenge! This is a way we can target every country of Asia, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant! Thank you. --Ser Amantio di Nicolao^{Che dicono a Signa?}_{Lo dicono a Signa.} 02:19, 21 October 2016 (UTC)

English proficiency map

Hi ProdigyUpdates, where did you get all the numbers in File:Percentage of English speakers by country as of 2014.png from? That English proficiency report is missing many countries you colored (see e.g. Uganda) and I don't find English proficiency in the CIA factbook. --mfb (talk) 14:53, 25 June 2022 (UTC)
