In the newest form of the centuries old game, this feat has only been achieved 12 times by 11 cricketers. Based on the existing FL List of centuries in women's Test cricket, I present this list for nomination. Ianblair23 (talk) 10:28, 17 December 2014 (UTC)
- Quick comment
- Factual error: although Levi's entire innings was 51 balls, his century came off 45 balls. This fact (along with the fact it was the fastest by time) should be referenced in the lead. Harrias talk 11:53, 17 December 2014 (UTC)
Done Good pick up. Thanks Harrias -- Ianblair23 (talk) 12:41, 17 December 2014 (UTC)
- Further comments
- The lead reads like a collection of bullet points, it would benefit from a rewrite to make it more flow better. It could also do with a bit more depth, perhaps mentioning that because it is such a short format, centuries are rare in Twenty20 cricket.
- @Harrias: Rearranged and expanded the lead -- Ianblair23 (talk) 05:45, 25 January 2015 (UTC)
- Some of the language used in the lead isn't very encyclopaedic: "Levi's knock" is a prime example of this.
- Reworded -- Ianblair23 (talk) 05:45, 25 January 2015 (UTC)
- "..and is arranged chronologically." As this is a sortable list, change this to "..and is initially arranged chronologically."
- Reworded and moved to it just above the table as per List of ICC Champions Trophy centuries -- Ianblair23 (talk) 05:45, 25 January 2015 (UTC)
- With regards to the discussion below, I'm happy with the columns used: I'm not particularly in favour of the addition of either H/A/N or Innings, although I similarly wouldn't oppose the latter.
- I have restored the innings column after the strike rate column. As I stated below, to be consistent this will need to be added to List of Cricket World Cup centuries, List of Asia Cup centuries and List of ICC Champions Trophy centuries. Also List of centuries in women's Test cricket and List of centuries in women's ODI cricket will need to be updated to reflect this agreed change. -- Ianblair23 (talk) 05:45, 25 January 2015 (UTC)
- I would favour the "No." column being sortable.
- Made sortable -- Ianblair23 (talk) 05:45, 25 January 2015 (UTC)
- The format for ESPNcricinfo references is inconsistent, Refs 3–11 use "ESPNcricinfo. ESPN.", while 12 onwards simply has "ESPNcricinfo." I prefer the latter personally, but either way, remain consistent.
- Made refs consistent -- Ianblair23 (talk) 05:45, 25 January 2015 (UTC)
- You should remove the publisher's name (ESPNcricinfo) from the title of references 12 onwards. Harrias talk 22:58, 20 January 2015 (UTC)
