Nominator(s): Dey subrata (talk) 23:21, 10 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I've improved the article significantly with all required information, citations and structure and from previous experiences of nominations I've taken care of small details carefully. I am nominating this for featured list because I believe it meets all of the FL criteria per WP:WIAFL and has a scope of getting FL status. I welcome to all comments and suggestions regarding this nomination. Thank you. Dey subrata (talk) 23:21, 10 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Comments
  • "As of 2016 Men's T20 World Cup," => "As of the 2016 Men's T20 World Cup,"
  • "(then World Twenty20)" => "(then called the World Twenty20)". Also no reason for the name to be in italics
  • "This is the first and only instance in the championship where" => "This is the first and only instance in the championship when"
  • "until he had broken his own record" => "until he broke his own record"
  • "The second and third batsmen to score a century in the championship were....." - why is it important to note the second and third players to score a hundred?
    • Sorry, it just totally gone out of my mind, actually the first three centries makes all the three bastemen to achieve the feat of becoming players who scored centuries in all the formats of the game, a very rare feat in cricket. Gayle's being the first. Added the info and see if needs any correction. Dey subrata (talk) 21:32, 11 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • "Brendon McCullum is the highest individual scorer in the Men's T20 World Cup, scored 123 runs" => "Brendon McCullum is the highest individual scorer in the Men's T20 World Cup, having scored 123 runs"
  • "As of 2016, " - this is still true, so say "as of 2020"
    • Because this is world cup, happens after 4 years, and last time held in 2016 and the 2020 world cup is yet to start. This one is not like the last list. Dey subrata (talk) 21:32, 11 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
      • Yes, but just saying "as of 2016" could make the reader think that there have been more world cups since then (the article doesn't say that it is only held every four years) and the article just hasn't been updated. If you really want to keep the 2016 date then you must say "as of the 2016 tournament, the most recent to take place"....... -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 07:33, 12 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
        • ChrisTheDude, I think to add "the most recent to take place" would be better, since ICC yet to decide to hold the T20I WC as 2 years or 4 years event. Please check the above point also, if any correction needed in the added lines. Dey subrata (talk) 08:45, 12 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • "refers to whether the player's team won, lost" => "refers to whether the player's team won or lost"
  • Think that's it from me -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 19:16, 11 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Made a few minor tweaks and now happy to support -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 18:37, 12 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support A well written article. ~ HAL333 15:15, 1 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Comments from Harrias

  • "..is the international championship of T20 cricket. A T20 International.." Spell out "Twenty20" on these two occasions, including the abbreviation in brackets after.
  • added in the first sentence, (T20) in the first sentence fulfills the purpose of the second sentence for which the the short form is used so that can be used later in the paragraph. However, ICC now call it as T20, no more as Twenty20. Drat8sub (talk) 01:00, 30 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • No they don't. They have rebranded the competition to use "T20", but the format of cricket is still called Twenty20 and Twenty20 International. Both abbreviations need defining, per MOS:ABBR. Harrias talk 07:29, 30 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Harrias, correct, was prejudiced by the world cup name change. Fixed the name thing. Drat8sub (talk) 20:56, 4 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • "This century also made him the first player to score a century in all three formats of international cricket." The last century you mentioned was the 2016 one, but this presumably refers to his 2010 one.
  • The Key table needs to be made accessible with row and column scopes, and a table caption.
  • "Inns." is actually "Inn" in the list.
  • "refers to whether the player's team won or lost or if the match was drawn" None of the matches were drawn, might as well remove this.
  • We can now use {{asterisk}} as an accessible symbol.
  • Support All my concerns have been resolved. Harrias talk 07:35, 9 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Source review – pass

  • Be consistent about whether ESPNcricinfo is treated as a work or a publisher in the sources.
  • Typo in ref #6.
  • Ref #8 needs author details adding.
  • No need to pipe ref #10, leave it as The Daily Telegraph.

That's it from me. Harrias talk 12:57, 29 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Harrias,  Fixed all above. Drat8sub (talk) 01:00, 30 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Comments from TRM

WikiCup entry

  • "the two teams play a single innings each" -> "each team plays a single innings"
  • "been 8 centuries scored by 7 players." eight, seven per MOSNUM.
  • "instance in the championship when" usually "instance ... of" or "time ... when".
  • "2016 ICC T20 World Cup.[7][8] He scored an" consider merging, ie "2016 ICC T20 World Cup when he scored an". And maybe drop the precise date (it's in the table anyway). Just to make sure it's clear you're talking about the same innings.
  • If you keep the date, ", Mumbai on" needs a comma after Mumbai.
  • " the 2012 edition." put edition inside the pipe.
  • ", Kandy on " comma after Kandy.
  • "feat of scoring a century in all the international formats of the game, a feat o" feat/feat repetitive.
  • Why isn't D/L in bold in the key table?
  • In fact, for the 2016 century, was it D/L or D/L/S because that was introduced in 2015...
  • DL is not bold because it is not used as bold in the table and it will look odd in the result section. Secondly, generally it called as DL. However you are correct the 2016 is Duckworth–Lewis–Stern method so it will be enough to link the whole name which now I've corrected the piping with whole name.
  • The colours aren't visible in the key table.
  • Not sure if you're fixing col widths, but the teams often spill onto two lines and that looks awkward. Bangladesh is entirely on a new line after its flag...
  • No, I've not fixed any width, its producing this on its own, may be due to number of columns. Most other lists are similar only. It's fine.
  • Several fields missing from the key, i.e. No., 4s, 6s, S/R, Edition etc.
  • Normally the asterisk for not out is unspaced.
  • The row scope should be the player name, that's the key information in each line.
  • ESPNcricinfo in refs vs ESPN Cricinfo in ext links.
  • Not sure how useful the second external link is as it's not constrained to World Cup T20I centuries.
  • External links are basically for future research, and that link is showing T20I centuries with ball comparison which also includes T20I WC centuries, so it will be surely helpful for future readers, editors and researchers.

That's all from me. Cheers. The Rambling Man (Stay indoors, stay safe!!!!) 09:31, 9 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The Rambling Man,  Fixed all above and commented above on points for clarification. Drat8sub (talk) 10:30, 9 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
