PCA Player of the Year

 * Nominator(s): Harrias talk 14:17, 18 April 2015 (UTC)

A list that I first worked on a few years ago that I have now brought up to scratch for FL. It is loosely based off a few other featured lists for awards. As always, all critique will be welcomed. I currently have a nomination open, FLC, but this has no outstanding concerns, and has garnered significant support. Harrias talk 14:17, 18 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Support - can't see any issues, although I don't think the template at the bottom is needed on this particular page given that it just duplicates the table -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 07:30, 23 April 2015 (UTC)


 * Comments
 * Oh man, even cricket award names are complicated.
 * "the 2014 winner, Adam Lyth exemplified this claiming, "It’s a very..."" - awkward. Easiest fix is "exemplified this by claiming that "it's a very..."" - note the lowercase i, and the curly apostrophe being turned into a regular one
 * "but just Sir Richard Hadlee" - but only Sir Richard Hadlee
 * "that season, while in 2005, Flintoff won the award in the same year" - "while" implies a simultaneous relationship in time that doesn't exist here, no comma after 2005, and "the award" is ambiguous grammatically, though it's a safe assumption to be referring to the PCA award. Change to "that season, and in 2005 Flintoff won the PCA award in the same year"
 * Winners of the Cricket Writers' Club County Championship Player of the Year are called out in the table, but not the lead- bit odd, since it's the only such award you don't call out in the lead.
 * Please add the publisher (ESPN) to the espncricinfo reference.
 * Consider archiving your online references with a service such as archive.org or webcitation.org so that changes/removal of content from your referenced sites don't affect the article. It may seem unlikely, but it's entirely possible for a site like espncricinfo to change their article format, drop old articles, and leave you with nothing but a deadlink- it happens more often than you'd think.

 * All done I think. Harrias talk 08:37, 26 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Support, as my first as an FLC delegate instead of a normal reviewer. -- Pres N  18:30, 27 April 2015 (UTC)


 * Support based on prose, and the table set-up. Overall I can't see any issues. Miyagawa (talk) 10:48, 4 May 2015 (UTC)
