@Lugnuts: Looks like something needs to be done. Human (talk) 04:16, 18 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Think I've fixed that. Thanks for spotting it. Lugnuts Fire Walk with Me 07:27, 18 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Lugnuts: The user has created the article again and Shahab Alam. Human (talk) 16:52, 22 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Looking at their edit history, they seem to pop-up once in a blue moon. I reckon the best thing is to wait until the end of the tournament, give it a day or two, and then they can be moved into draft (again). Otherwise they'll just come back and re-create them. @Bs1jac: - do you have any thoughts on this? Thanks. Lugnuts Fire Walk with Me 17:01, 22 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Lugnuts: I noticed these on he Nepal player list as well. I was also planning to leave it until the day after the event ends. It is a shame that these players don't meet notability criteria, but we all know the minefield there. Always going to be a problem with Nepal as they have plenty of fans, and some active in WP. Plus Nepal's players are borderline notable with a reasonable amount of online mentions. Bs1jac (talk) 17:11, 22 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. Someone give me a ping early to mid next week to remind me and I'll do the necessary. Lugnuts Fire Walk with Me 17:13, 22 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Bs1jac: You can say the same about all the subcontinental fans, but they are somewhat sensible. Fans in Nepal are relatively new and has some sort of extra emotions attached. I understand their need of attention. Human (talk) 17:23, 22 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@A Simple Human: Yes, that wasn't a criticism of Nepalese fans at all... I just meant that unlike most associate nations, there is a big following in Nepal, hence more likely to see players like this getting created when technically they shouldn't be. And also a reason why perhaps they should be included given there is likely news coverage (if we could find it)... but let's not go there! Bs1jac (talk) 18:18, 22 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Do not delete or move to draft

The article is created for a notable cricket player as per Wikipedia:Notability_(sports)#Cricket and Wikipedia:WikiProject Cricket/Notability. Also, a significant number of reliable sources are provided as references. I don't see any reason why it shouldn't be on Wikipedia. Ashesh 04:12, 24 April 2021 (UTC)
