- This article has sources including BBC, Jersey Evening Post and ESPNcricinfo and links to several other pages on Wikipedia. The subject is a player for the Jersey women's national cricket team with 11 caps including in a T20 world cup qualifying tournament. What is the problem with it?

Shrug02: How many of those include
significant coverage of the subject? The number of caps and/or competitions played are not relevant.

- I have added more information and sources as discussed with you. I was trying to create a complete set of pages for the Jersey women's cricket team excluding those players who have done nothing of note of course. Coverage of places such as Jersey is sparse so sources are often hard to come by. This does not make the subject matter irrelevant. I see you have now nominated a second of my pages for deleting and no doubt the rest will follow. I don't understand all these terms and abbreviations being used and I can't imagine I'll save them from deleting. I have worked for many hours to create these pages and in good faith. I will now stop. Thank you. Shrug02 ( talk) 23:31, 21 June 2024 (UTC)

Delete: Please also delete the following Jersey cricket players pages I created as this is obviously a subject matter unworthy of Wikipedia - Chloe Greechan, Patrick Gouge, Charlie Brennan, Nia Greig, Trinity Smith, Scott Simpson, Grace Wetherall, Analise Merritt, Charlie Miles, Mia Maguire, Georgia Mallet, Erin Gouge, Erin Duffy, Lily Greig, Florence Tanguy, Maria Da Rocha, Florrie Copley

- Many of those look potentially notable (worthy of an article) – I wouldn't have them all deleted just out of being upset over this one being potentially deleted.

- Thanks for the kind words (it is truly appreciated and nice to read) but I'm just getting ahead of the curve. Also, as you will have now seen as you've commented on both, it is not just one article that is being deleted. While other reviewers have seen no issue with any of them it seems I have fallen foul of one that sees no value in small places or sports not popular in certain parts of the world. I'm just saving them the time of hunting down my articles so they can have them removed. Shrug02 ( talk) 17:11, 22 June 2024 (UTC)

- Redirect, no GNG coverage found.
Coverage of places such as Jersey is sparse so sources are often hard to come by.
is precisely what makes a topic non-notable: if IRS sources are not interested enough to give the subject significant coverage, then why should Wikipedia? JoelleJay ( talk) 22:05, 23 June 2024 (UTC)- I'm not sure what an IRS source is but if it means a local source than on Jersey there is basically one - the Jersey Evening Post - and that has been cited in this article more than once. My point over sources being sparse was that there is not the volume of sources in places like Jersey compared to the USA where there are hundreds of local newspapers, TV stations and websites along with national ones too. In Jersey there is basically the JEP plus the odd bit of coverage from the BBC. In reality it takes more to get one bit of coverage locally in Jersey than it does to get four or five or more in the USA. Hence you can have high school athletes in the USA with dozens of pieces of coverage for winning a small event but if you represent Jersey internationally you'll still only get one piece of coverage from the JEP. I hope that clarifies my remark. Shrug02 ( talk) 22:39, 23 June 2024 (UTC)
