Saeed Ahmed (cricketer, born 1937)Saeed Ahmed (cricketer) – As discussed for Steve Smith (cricketer) at WP:CRIC. Players who represent national side are likely to be primary article Störm (talk) 15:26, 20 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • If any of the red links are notable then this probably shouldn't be done (however none have any mainspaace links). Should probably be discussed to see if the others are notable. Crouch, Swale (talk) 16:31, 20 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • @Störm: Could you please post a link to that discussion regarding Steve Smith? PC78 (talk) 21:06, 20 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Tentative support. The notability of other cricketers named Saeed Ahmed has not been established, and no articles for them currently exist. If or when they do we can disambiguate as appropriate. PC78 (talk) 21:06, 20 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Lugnuts: may help. Störm (talk) 21:10, 20 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Indeed. Here is the (old) discussion at WT:CRIC, citing the same precedent as James Anderson (cricketer) as well as Smith. Lugnuts Fire Walk with Me 07:02, 21 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Lugnuts, many thanks. PC78, please check the archived discussion. Störm (talk) 09:41, 21 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
That's fine, cheers! PC78 (talk) 15:09, 21 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
No problem, and support the page move, per the above examples. Lugnuts Fire Walk with Me 12:40, 21 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support - the others might get an article, but this is the much more notable one. It would be worth adding a hat note to the article once moved however. Blue Square Thing (talk) 14:07, 21 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
