[edit]

question regarding deletion of a section

[edit]

How can I know why my production section entry for Extra TV's page was deleted? My sources were cited and reliable. 130.166.220.254 (talk) 06:12, 26 March 2015 (UTC)(four tildes)[reply]

You can both search the history (at the top, it says "history") of this page "search wikipedia" if it was not a ref desk question, or click on "talk"/"discussion" and post the same question at our talk page. There's also the Wikipedia:Help desk which will help if you created an article that was deleted. It will also help if you register, since tracking you by your IP address is useless in many cases, including this one. μηδείς (talk) 06:42, 26 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
This isn't really a question for the Reference Desk. However a very quick check of the article in question, and the reversion of your edit appears to be based on the fact that you use "extratv.com" as a source. You may wish to take this discussion up with the editor who removed your contribution, that's @Corkythehornetfan:. The Rambling Man (talk) 07:21, 26 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Someone on your own subnet also zapped your posting on the talk page, which is not kosher, and I restored it. ←Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? carrots08:26, 26 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

MLB equivalents in different nations

[edit]

What are the Afghani equivalent to MLB? What are the French equivalent to the MLB? What is the Swiss equivalent to the MLB? What is the UK equivalent to the MLB? What is the Australian equivalent to MLB? What is the Iranian equivalent to MLB? What is the Iraqi equivalent to MLB? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.29.35.51 (talk) 14:49, 26 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

It is unclear what you are asking. Do you want to know "What are the highest level of baseball in each of these countries" OR "What is the highest level professional sports league in each of these countries". If you clarify what you are asking for, we can help you better. Alternately, you could research the answer yourself by looking at articles titled "Sport in XXXXX", for which Wikipedia has articles for most countries. For example Sport in Afghanistan, Sport in France, etc. --Jayron32 16:01, 26 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

In Afghanistan the equivalent body to MLB is ABF( Afghanistan baseball Federation). It is the top body which runs the baseball sport in Afghanistan.[1]. In France it is called French baseball and softball federation [2]. In Switzerland it is called the NLA with a governoring body known as Swiss baseball and softball federation [3]. In United kingdom it is called National baseball league with a governing body called the British baseball federation [4]. In Australia, what is equivalent to the MLB is known as ABL( Australian baseball league). [5] In iran it is the Iran Baseball and softball Association. [6].

2015 WC

[edit]

On what TV channel can I see the 2015 Bandy World Championship? In the US in particular, but in other countries too... — Preceding unsigned comment added by 176.71.169.66 (talk) 16:33, 26 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I can't find anywhere that it is carried on broadcast, cable, or satellite TV in the U.S., but you can watch live streams of the games here --Jayron32 16:57, 26 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
In Sweden you can see it on TV12. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Skogsvandraren (talkcontribs) 19:31, 26 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Some years ago, Eurosport 2 sent the bandy world championship, but I think the interest is too small in continental Europe. Bandy Hoppsan (talk) 22:09, 29 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
