Edits are very minor which I fixed myself being bold!

• Changed Port Phillip (Victoria) and Van Diemen's Land (Tasmania) to Port Phillip, Victoria and Van Diemen's Land, Tasmania.
• Changed the wiki link [[wicket]]s to [[wickets#Winning by number of wickets|wickets]] to make it more convenient.

This article is well-written overall and has become a good article. Ikhtiar H (talk) 14:56, 12 January 2016 (UTC)

Sorry, but this was an appalling GA review. A dozen edits (and a page move) later, and I think the article is somewhere approaching GA status. StAnselm (talk) 03:18, 19 January 2016 (UTC)

• Thank you StAnselm for making these 12 edits to the article, a majority of them I notice significantly to the new info box which you put (thank you, your edits are invaluable) as well as one where you move the page. You may have made a mistake in one edit of mine that you changed. The Launceston Racecourse was so named only till 1841. After 1841, it was named Launceston Cricket Club Ground, a name which remained till 1886, which is precisely what I wrote. You may perhaps wish to change this set of edits back both in the main article and the inbox. Thank you for your invaluable edits. Xender Lourdes (talk) 15:06, 21 January 2016 (UTC)

Ah, yes - I was looking at the ESPN article, of course. I am happy to change it, but I would like a better source than Cricket Archive - this book, for example, says "Launceston Racecourse". Of course, it is quite possible that for long periods of time it was known by multiple names. StAnselm (talk) 18:55, 21 January 2016 (UTC)

Then let's have consistency in the article. Either we should change the name to Launceston Racecourse throughout the article, or we should change it to Launceston Cricket Club Ground throughout the article. Currently in the lead the name is Racecourse while in the body of the article the name is Cricket Club Ground. Anything you say is acceptable. Xender Lourdes (talk) 07:07, 22 January 2016 (UTC)
