[edit] Picture
Could someone thats good at that sort of thing edit the picture at the top of the article to label the splice too? --LiamE 16:41, 26 November 2006 (UTC)
Splice is hidden behind the Gray-Nicolls logo. But that's a good point - can someone provide a labelled picture of a bat with the splice labelled as well as the other features? Also the rubber as distinct from the handle? - AG, Stockport, UK.
How about adding a picture of the bat in cross section? (Such as from the end of the bat). Since the bat isn't symmetrical. RJFJR 18:53, 26 June 2007 (UTC)
I've moved the image of a bat up to the shape section. As it was, the first image seen by someone who didn't know what a bat looked like was the historical bat. 129.16.97.227 12:06, 10 November 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Removed from article
Paul McCartney thinks a cricket bat he has ordered has arrived at his house in the video for Dance Tonight. In fact it is his Mandolin.
[edit] Removed commercial sales link
I have removed a link that goes directly to a cricket-bat store. Unlike in say the article Apple Inc. which is a noteable firm and the link is 'valid', this links goes to just one of thousands of retailers selling cricket-bats. Please do not re-add this to the site, wikipedia is not a tool for free advertising, regardless of whether the link is relevant to the entry described. ny156uk (talk) 22:39, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
