Draft picks[edit]

@CreativeNorth: Hello. As the creator of the article, can you update the table for draft picks? Thanks. Human (talk) 15:44, 10 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@A Simple Human: Hi. I'll try to get this done over the next few days in view of a potential DYK. There are quite a few picks though so it might take a while! CreativeNorth (talk) 17:26, 10 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@CreativeNorth: In case you need help with the players, I have listed them in the main articles as accurately as I can. Some of the players may not be exact but can be changed later. Just don't leave any of the player's link to a disambiguation page or redirect. Thanks Human (talk) 17:57, 10 January 2021 (UTC) Human (talk) 18:15, 10 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Churot: Hello. You seem to be interested in PSL. Maybe you can help clean up? Thanks Human (talk) 06:37, 11 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@A Simple Human: Thanks for inviting. I'm a bit busy today, will look at it later in the evening. ☎️ Churot DancePop 06:48, 11 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@A Simple Human: Hi, as I mentioned yesterday do you think I should nominate the article for DYK after @Churot: hopefully cleans it up. CreativeNorth (talk) 14:56, 11 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@CreativeNorth: Good idea. But we need more references for better verification. Edit: There seems to be enough sources. We just need to clean up the player links. Again there are the player links in the season article. If need help figuring out who the players are just go there. Human (talk) 17:15, 11 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • According to DYKcheck, this article is only 1165 characters long (excluding the names in the tables). DYK requires articles to be at least 1500 characters long (excluding text in tables). Another issue, it's unclear what the classes (platinum, diamond, gold, silver, emerging, supplementary) mean- I assume it's related to money, but needs to be explained in the article else this article isn't understandable to a casual reader.

@Joseph2302: Thanks for the reply. I’ll try and take a look at the article tomorrow taking into account your feedback. As for explaining the categories, in what section of the article would you put this? Thanks once again for the reply and I’ll try and apply your feedback tomorrow. CreativeNorth (talk) 19:42, 17 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Joseph2302: I think the article is now over 1500 characters and I've explained the classes it in the draft section. Any other problems with the article? Thanks. CreativeNorth (talk) 08:08, 18 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Let me do a full review:
  • checkY Article is now long enough (1730 characters), just about new enough (created 4 January, nominated 11 January), and article is within policy
  • checkY Hooks are short enough, interesting and well cited. Might be more interested to say that Hasan Ali was the first pick of the draft
  • checkY QPQ done
  • Overall, this nomination is now good to go. Joseph2302 (talk) 19:18, 18 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • The second chart and the list of category salaries need sources. I also recommend spelling out PSL in the hook for non-Pakistani readers. Yoninah (talk) 21:48, 18 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Yoninah: Thanks for the reply, I've spelled out the PSL in the hook. As for the sources though will this do? [1]? The problem is no-one has really reported the category salaries so if this isn't ok I don't think there is anything else on it for this season anyway.
Kingsif and evrik, do either of you have any ideas on resolving this issue or know someone who does? SL93 (talk) 05:29, 25 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Reading the article, I think a more comprehensive lede is needed to explain the rest of the article. I read it and didn't understand the significance of what I was reading. --evrik (talk) 06:05, 25 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Evrik: Thanks for the response, I've added a bit to the lead but do you have any suggestions on how to improve it. Thanks. CreativeNorth (talk) 14:25, 25 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
You could add the word cricket to the lede. Also, what is the importance of this league to the country? --evrik (talk) 01:20, 26 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
evrik Done, the word cricket has been added and i’ve mentioned that it is the franchise t20 league of the country. Anything else? CreativeNorth (talk) 11:02, 26 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Yoninah did you get what yo were looking for? --evrik (talk) 18:04, 26 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
evrik I don't think Yoninah is editing at the moment an you restore the tick yourself? CreativeNorth (talk) 16:17, 27 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

CreativeNorth, you have to ping and sign in the same edit, otherwise it breaks the ping. Yoninah isn't editing right now. Joseph2302 Kingsif Evrik SL93 if you think Yoninah's concerns have been adequately addressed, can someone restore the tick? —valereee (talk) 16:04, 25 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Valereee Thanks for telling me. CreativeNorth (talk) 16:59, 25 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Valereee Can you restore the tick now that Evrik's concerns have been fixed. CreativeNorth (talk) 16:31, 27 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • I'm happy to restore the tick- second table is sourced (I added the source explicitly below the table), and category salaries are well sourced now too. This addresses all of Yoninah's points. Joseph2302 (talk) 17:01, 27 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@CreativeNorth: I dont know why you did that. The table is still in a bad state. Since you didnt listen, I wont associate with this article anymore. Do whatever you want. Human (talk) 07:29, 12 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@CreativeNorth: Tweaked the table. The article is good to go now. Although I dont know how Shoaib Malik's accident is relevant here. But since it is already in DYK I'm letting it go. Human (talk) 09:09, 12 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
