==Lists==
The links have complete lists of cricketers grouped by the first letter of their last names. The lists are in the format of <code>P. Adams 1984/85-1985/86</code> (the years indicate the span of the player's career with that team). Copy-paste the entire list to Notepad, and replace delimiters such as tabs and spaces with "* [[<nowiki/>" and "]]<nowiki/>, " to get the list in Wikipedia list format of <code>* [[<nowiki/>P. Adams]]<nowiki/>, 1984/85–1985/86</code>. The only thing you'll need to type is the player's first name. I followed these simple steps to create long lists such as [[List of Maharashtra cricketers]].

The [[WP:ARBCOM|Arbitration Committee]] is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the [[Wikipedia:Arbitration|Wikipedia arbitration process]]. It has the authority to impose binding solutions to disputes between editors, primarily for serious conduct disputes the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the authority to impose [[WP:BAN|site bans]], [[WP:TBAN|topic bans]], editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The [[Wikipedia:Arbitration/Policy|arbitration policy]] describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail.
|-
| style="vertical-align: top;" | '''EL:''' || Well I did not really know what to expect. I mused it might be anything from being ignored as silly and boring to going viral. I thought some people might think it was hillarious, to some people responding by outright attacking. I assumed that because it was tagged as humor, people would see it as an attempt to be funny.
If you wish to participate in the 2022 election, please review [[Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee Elections December 2022/Candidates|the candidates]] and submit your choices on the '''[[Special:SecurePoll/vote/{{Arbitration Committee candidate/data|2022|poll}}|voting page]]'''.

|-
| style="vertical-align: top;" | '''I:''' || Wikipedia has a precedent of deleting April Fools' jokes involving COVID-19, due to the serious nature of the epidemic. Weren't you concerned by that?
</div>
|-
</div>
| style="vertical-align: top;" | '''EL:''' || I did see that, but there was not a lot of detail as to what the issues were. The specific details had, obviously, been deleted. The PRUMT-16 article is not making light of COVID-19 or of the pandemic. In fact the article twice acknowledges that millions of people have died. The book might actually be an allegory of the games played by governments and large organizations, and their consequences. On that premis, the book is taking the matter seriously. And, the book does attempt to satirize and/or call out some of the responses to COVID-19. Certainly humankind could have done much better in responding to and managing the pandemic.

My main concern was notability. The article is essentially unreferenced, and hence its contents cannot be verified, nor have the notability of its subject, the book, determined.
|-
| style="vertical-align: top;" | '''I:''' || But what about the zombie genes in the virus? Some people might not like being thought of as zombies?
|-
| style="vertical-align: top;" | '''EL:''' || In the book, the COVID-19 virus has not been modified that way. It is the PRUMT-16 virus which has been modified that way.
|-
| style="vertical-align: top;" | '''I:''' || None-the-less, you might be seen to be pushing an agenda.
|-
| style="vertical-align: top;" | '''EL:''' || The book might be pushing an agenda, but the article about the book I thought was balanced, and presented opposing points of view with due weight. The agenda, if any, of the book I think depends on who is commenting on it, as is described in the article.
|-
| style="vertical-align: top;" | '''I:''' || So does the book exist? Will it be published?
|-
| style="vertical-align: top;" | '''EL:''' || As far as I am aware, no. No publisher has been sent a draft manuscript.
|-
| style="vertical-align: top;" | '''I:''' || But what about the storyline in the article. It goes in to some detail and essentially matches an actual chronology. Where did that come from? It is almost a short story in its own right.
|-
| style="vertical-align: top;" | '''EL:''' || I felt I needed to get across a good summary of the book. The material is published under Wikipedia's licensing regime, so as long as people abide by the license, they can do as they wish.
|-
| style="vertical-align: top;" | '''I:''' || Will there be a movie?
|-
| style="vertical-align: top;" | '''EL:''' || Again, as long as any derivative material abides by Wikipedia's licensing regime, I presume anything is possible.
I would suggest to any prospective director that they consider having the epilogue meeting between the Russians and the Chinese being held in Canberra, Australia, so that the Russians driving away after the meeting can go past the CanTurf grass farm which has an advertising sign stating, "Putin the seed and it comes up Trumps".
|-
| style="vertical-align: top;" | '''I:''' || One more question if I may. What can you say about when the Eno Lirpa Wikipedia account was created? It seems to be about the same time as when the Russians in the book would have been gearing up for, or the early days of, their fake news campaign.
|-
| style="vertical-align: top;" | '''EL:''' || Well, that is well spotted! It is just a concidence.
|-
| style="vertical-align: top;" | '''I:''' || Thank you for your time.
|-
| style="vertical-align: top;" | '''EL:''' || You're welcome.
