India at the 2024 ICC Men's T20 World Cup: We have never created articles for teams at Cricket World Cups before, as they are wholly unnecessary, and just copying content available on other articles, such as 2024 ICC Men's T20 World Cup and 2024 ICC Men's T20 World Cup squads .  Joseph 2302 ( talk ) 08:29, 2 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Note:  This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Cricket , South Africa , Afghanistan , Pakistan , India , England ,  and Australia .  Joseph 2302 ( talk ) 08:29, 2 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] I am also nominating articles for other countries at this event: Afghanistan at the 2024 ICC Men's T20 World Cup ( edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views ) Australia at the 2024 ICC Men's T20 World Cup ( edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views ) England at the 2024 ICC Men's T20 World Cup ( edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views ) Pakistan at the 2024 ICC Men's T20 World Cup ( edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views ) South Africa at the 2024 ICC Men's T20 World Cup ( edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views ) .  Joseph 2302 ( talk ) 08:31, 2 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep - The following articles would be suitable as in the T20 World Cup, many matches will be played and in these articles, the readers can read the per match summary, team's tournament progression, tournament kit, scorecard, per team statistics and many more of the respective cricket team at a single article, which is not possible to mention at the 2024 ICC Men's T20 World Cup article.  Any articles which haven't been created earlier doesn't mean it is unnecessary, there should be an article to record any team's particular tournament edition journey.  Wowlastic10 ( talk ) 09:52, 2 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Tournament summaries should be in the main article anyway, which would cover the important matches and information, so a split out for match summaries for every match including the WP:ROUTINE coverage ones is not required.  Tournament kit would be WP:TRIVIA , team statistics sounds like it would violate WP:NOTSTATS / WP:TRIVIA .  None of this sounds like encyclopedic content, and just because people create these articles for e.g. IPL teams (which are questionable to do anyway), that doesn't mean they are valid WP:CFORKs for this tournament.  Joseph 2302 ( talk ) 10:17, 2 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Can we keep it until first week of T20 World Cup?  If you feel it useless then also, then you're free to delete it.  What say?  Wowlastic10 ( talk ) 05:41, 7 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] I would be against this, as the onus is to prove that they are valid articles, not keeping in the hope they might be, against any evidence that they'll be anything other than a WP:CFORK with trivia and stats obsessions (like the IPL season articles).  Joseph 2302 ( talk ) 15:49, 7 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Strong Keep: The concept is basically like India at the 2020 Summer Olympics , where pages like India at the Cricket World Cup are split for every edition.  This is infact a very important addition to wikipedia and should be made for all teams having played every ICC tournament.  Like the IPL teams, county teams; this is a very valuable addition as each page will contain stuff others cant.  I have been working on similar articles in my private space, but havent published them yet as I want to properly finish the thing before publishing.  @ Wowlastic10 I would encourage you to make similar articles for all editions of the T20 World Cup.  Do remove the words ICC Men’s and make it like India at the 2024 T20 World Cup ; following the common name process.  Furthermore, include national stats such as viewership, tournament stats of players of that country, pictures, quotes, squad information and match details with some description.  Pharaoh496 ( talk ) 05:14, 4 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Do not rename these as suggested without WP:RM consensus, as the main article is at 2024 ICC Men's T20 World Cup .  Also this comment doesn't address WP:CFORK .  Joseph 2302 ( talk ) 07:45, 4 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] More squad information such as matches played by each person, caps, etc Proper matchwise description - not there on any other page More information about reaction of said mactches and tournament in the country Place to add pictures Pharaoh496 ( talk ) 19:00, 4 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Information on individual players as well.  Pharaoh496 ( talk ) 19:02, 4 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] More squad information such as matches played by each person, caps, etc - can be added to squad article, as has been done for some 50 over World Cup events.  Proper matchwise description - only needed for notable matches, not those with routine coverage.  This is an encyclopedia, not a fandom site.  Reactions are mostly trivial and unencyclopedic, and any events/reactions that are actually important can go in the main article.  Lots of pictures violates WP:NOTGALLERY So none of these are a good reason to create these WP:CFORKs .  Joseph 2302 ( talk ) 15:48, 7 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Redirect/merge to 2024 ICC Men's T20 World Cup I agree with the nom.  I don't see these as being necessary as content for these forks will just be re-hashed details for the main article, and then lists and stats that violate WP:NLIST and WP:NOTSTATS as they will just be random indiscriminate.  If a particular team has a 'special' tournament, or gains significant coverage for another reason, then perhaps a fork can then be made, but one for each team is unnecessary, and the comparison to the Olympic articles doesn't wash given how much bigger an event (with loads more events and athletes) than a cricket tournament.  We don't have forks for Football World Cup articles for example.  Rugbyfan22 ( talk ) 09:18, 4 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] But providing more knowledge should be the aim of wikipedia, and these lists provide extra information about the playing nation than the main article.  Wowlastic10 ( talk ) 10:21, 4 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Per @ Wowlastic10 , this can be more than a list, and it warrants an article for each country.  If the article does not have unique info it can be merged back.  Pharaoh496 ( talk ) 19:02, 4 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Yes, that's what I'm saying, thanks for explaining it on my behalf.  Wowlastic10 ( talk ) 10:37, 5 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] But providing more knowledge should be the aim of wikipedia - true, but putting information into various sub articles so people can add stats trivia isn't the best way of displaying it.  We have an article on the events and squad articles, and those are the main 2 things about each team anyway.  WP:CFORKs are still not needed.  Joseph 2302 ( talk ) 15:48, 7 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Delete all .  I can see these becoming unnecessary, poor quality, content forks consisting of minimal prose and just scorecards... nothing which can't be included in the main tournament article.  AA ( talk ) 10:43, 6 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Let this discussion end, i'll again start including all the necessary details Wowlastic10 ( talk ) 04:55, 7 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] I dont mean to bludgeon, but this has high chances of not ending up as a mere stub; per my reasons stated above.  Each ipl team gets an annual page for its tournaments, as do the english county teams.  This will only broaden and improve wikipedia's scope on the matter, considering the quality of cricket articles on here is way down compared to other sports.  Pharaoh496 ( talk ) 15:34, 7 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] WP:OSE , just because other events like the IPL get articles like this every year (which I don't agree with anyway), that doesn't mean these should too.  Nobody so far has demonstrated why this isn't an unnecessary WP:CFORK .  Joseph 2302 ( talk ) 15:48, 7 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] How many times a player has played in the tournament - how many matches a swuad member played top 5 batting and bowling averages in the team etc catches and dismissals reaction / outrage / media coverage of tournament and team in said country prizes and awards won by players for performance in tourney explicit knockout stage performances I respect your opinion wholeheartedly, but ipl and county teams have existed for long, with some of them featured and good articles.  This is an opportunity for editors, who will add more valuable info and like i said, simply broaden wikipedia’s scope.  Pharaoh496 ( talk ) 07:56, 8 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] None of these things are encyclopedic enough, and no article with them will be a GA or FA if the process for GA or FA is applied properly.  County teams don't have season articles and most IPL teams have tables and no prose, which is what these articles are and likely will always be.  This is an encyclopedia and not a fandom site.  Joseph 2302 ( talk ) 13:52, 8 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep : It's easy for a visitor to get all the details about their desired team at one place.  I'd say we keep the Teamwise articles and should nominate the Squads article for deletion.  𝓥𝓮𝓼𝓽𝓻𝓲𝓪𝓷24𝓑𝓲𝓸 ( ᴛᴀʟᴋ ) 02:39, 9 May 2024 (UTC) If the squads article isn't there, and all the fixtures are instead transcluded from the main page; it won't be a WP:CFORK .  𝓥𝓮𝓼𝓽𝓻𝓲𝓪𝓷24𝓑𝓲𝓸 ( ᴛᴀʟᴋ ) 03:00, 9 May 2024 (UTC) WP:ILIKEIT .  Joseph 2302 ( talk ) 06:42, 10 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] It's not what I like, it's a suggestion to improve these articles.  Vestrian24Bio ( U , T , A , C , S ) 07:01, 10 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Squad articles are a cricket standard for these events, and can be expanded easily.  These country articles are not standard or needed, swapping one squad article for loads of country articles is not a good solution.  Just because it's the sort of thing WP:IPL would do, that doesn't mean other cricket tournament articles should do that.  Joseph 2302 ( talk ) 13:03, 10 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Yeah, pretty much the point.  Pharaoh496 ( talk ) 11:08, 11 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] This is not a deletion discussion about squad articles, that would need a separate consensus (and nominating right now would just further muddy the waters).  Joseph 2302 ( talk ) 11:02, 13 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Delete (alternate solution) : per nom individual articles for teams' performance at each world cup seems uneccesary.  I suggest we have articles for teams' overall record in the tournament and we can have season wise breakdown or details there.

Thanks, Let'srun ( talk ) 17:30, 9 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Delete or Redirect to 2024 ICC Men's T20 World Cup .  Per nom.  Needless forking.  RangersRus ( talk ) 13:26, 13 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.  Relisting comment: Relisting.  My instinct, as a regular AFD closer is to Redirect these article to the competition which is typically what we do with bundled nominations like this.  But I don't see a consensus for this action so that would be a supervote on my part.  I'd rather not close this as No consensus so let's see if a few more days of consideration can form a rough consensus here.  Please add new comments below this notice.  Thanks, L iz Read!

The alternative of summarizing the retrospective on all editions of the World Cup by country presented by @ User:Cric editor , is valid and can later transform individual edition articles into redirects.
