Deletion of List of lesser-known Sri Lankan cricketers

Comment: ping|Bobo192}}, {{ping|Greenbörg}}, {{ping|Dee03}}, {{ping|TheGracefulSlick}}, {{ping|Johnpacklambert}}, {{ping|Steve Quinn}}, {{ping|Rhadow}}, {{ping|Blue Square Thing}} -- There is a group of cricketers who have made a first-class appearance, which makes them notable as far as  is concerned. A single appearance is disqualifying for an article under . These players appear only in one or two cricket databases.  There is no English-language press coverage. I have no idea whether there is Sinhalese coverage.  A ''list'' is a compromise between the cricket fans' inclusionist bent and the deletionist view of others. The current title is imperfect; I modeled it after List of minor biblical figures, A–K.  The cricket fans say the current name is disparaging and implies a value judgement.  Propose another name. The distinguishing feature of this list is the single appearance or lack of press coverage, not the unknown first name. Tagging is not a solution. These articles have been tagged for a decade.  Some of the cricket experts have taken an intransigent stand, relying on the published standard  and the ten years some of these articles have gone unchallenged.  is being used to shift the responsibility for facts from the editor to the challenger, who is asked to prove that there is no coverage (a logical fallacy). Please think about a workable solution, not why others' suggests are not

Comment: to List of Sri Lankan cricketers with unidentified given names. This page name is unambiguous and would be a useful place to store information on those players who will struggle, due to a lack of biographical information, to be verifiable as reasonable targets of a page - i.e. where we have only very limited database entries about them. The page name suggested is stolen totally from List of Major League Baseball players with unidentified given names - a featured list - and was suggested to the editor who created this page. It is an objective naming strategy rather than one where the name of the article requires a judgement to be made. As can be seen from discussions such as rticles for deletion/J. Desai there are editors who would argue that articles where we have very limited biographical information should always be kept as a matter of process and others who would argue that they should be deleted based on the lack of information. A page such as this - with an objective name - is a compromise that might just go some way to allow information to be kept on Wikipedia and articles developed should sources eventually become available

Comment: but '''move''' it to the title suggested by Lugnuts/BlackJack. There are far too many articles of cricketers with a single first-class appearance who don't meet GNG and fall into the  territory. Anybody looking for these one match wonders can be redirected to this list which can provide the same information in a presentable format, instead of making them read those two-liners in standalone articles which are exactly identical to each other except for the name, team and runs scored in their only appearance

Comment: It's better to have this page than to have stand-alone pages for each entry on this page.  The page may need to be renamed, as it's not really a -style list article

Comment: per , individual first-class cricketers with a single first-class appearance qualify for an article. That seems to be set in stone.  Of secondary interest is that nobody is going to be looking for this article, so all this discussion and consensus building is moot
