List of English Twenty20 International cricketers[edit]

Complete list, no red links, jguk 19:10, 8 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

  • Support =Nichalp «Talk»= 19:36, 8 October 2005 (UTC) Comment I need to know if there will be any further 20-20 matches later this year. =Nichalp «Talk»= 19:45, 8 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support on the clause that there will be no further Twenty20 matches later this year. =Nichalp «Talk»= 19:47, 8 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose I don't see the point in really short lists like this (11 players that've played in one match) being suitable for featured status. It complies with the criteria, etc etc but it sort of demeans other lists that're much larger. The list itself is accurate, well laid out and useful. -- Iantalk 06:21, 17 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
    • It will get larger as more players are selected. Also there's no minimum size of list, and these guys are the unofficial world champions at Twenty20 Internationals, jguk 06:29, 17 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
      • I'd be happier to support if the list was a bit longer. Like I said, there's nothing wrong with the list, I just feel it's inappropriate as a FL just now. BTW, when is the next Twenty20 Int'l ? -- Iantalk 07:26, 17 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

England will play two next summer, one against Sri Lanka, the other against Pakistan, jguk 16:34, 17 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Support if the additional players are added when the team plays next year. Páll (Die pienk olifant) 18:34, 17 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support, list length here doesn't matter. --Spangineeres (háblame) 03:41, 21 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - I don't think I can quite oppose this, but I do want to express the same misgivings as Ian. There is, in my opinion, such a thing as a list which is too short to be featured. That doesn't mean that the list shouldn't exist at all - I commend the members of the Cricket WikiProject for all their fantastic work - but sometimes it's better to wait until there's more to say, especially as we know that this list will expand in the future (unlike, say, the List of books with the subtitle "Virtue Rewarded", which may never get longer). Like I say, I can't and won't oppose this, because it does meet the criteria - but I would feel happier if it were withdrawn and resubmitted next summer. --OpenToppedBus - Talk to the driver 09:00, 21 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • NOTE: This nomination has been extended to the full fortnight-long period. It will close at 19:10 on 22 October, jguk 20:52, 21 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
