John Pym
[edit]In the list of 1910-1914 players, entry #520 to John PYM is linked to the Australian rugby player, John Frederick PYM (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Pym_%28rugby_union%29)
This is the wrong person, and the referenced page is inconsistent with this page's player. The correct person was my wife's father, John Alfred PYM(1891-1969). This page gives a biography of him: - http://www.famnet.org.nz//UploadedDocs/robertb/MyFather/My%20father.htm
I tried to correct the link myself, but although I could see how to correct the text I couldn't see where the link could be changed.

- Thanks for that. I've fixed it now by creating a redlink to John Pym (English rugby union) --Bcp67 (talk) 05:51, 10 January 2014 (UTC)

Article completion stats - 9 December 2023
[edit]I thought it might be both validating and motivating to post this table, showing the huge progress contributors have made towards the complete coverage of all those players who have represented England.Kwib (talk) 19:37, 9 December 2023 (UTC)
