Brockley CC[edit]

Non-noteable cricket team. A Google search for "Brockley CC" provides 60 results minus wikimirrors. A Google search for "Brockley Cricket Club" shows 100 minus wikimirrors. According to the article, they play in "Division 2 of the Marshall Hatchick Two Counties league." Not quite enough for inclusion. Consequentially 00:38, 4 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hmm, there's a lot of teams listed on the article List of English cricket clubs, not convinced that they all need or warrant separate articles (or, more to the case, that such articles would be maintained). I note that there are over 3,500 clubs in over 200 leagues known by the ECB [1]. If we are not to have articles on all of these clubs (are these likely to be maintained?), I would suggest limiting it to those withing the ECB's official Premier Leagues (e.g. the Shepherd Neame Essex Cricket League) Average Earthman 00:55, 4 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete — The amount of Google hits alone are enough to delete this one. --S onicChao ^talk 03:57, 4 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - It's been around since 1953 and seems to have a well established organization. It's not the Ashes, but yes, it is notable. Mets 08:23, 4 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Speedy delete under A7, non-notable groups of people. Stephen Turner (Talk) 14:19, 4 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - Brockley CC are included in the Brockley, Suffolk article and a link to the cricket club's web site is provided there. The rest of this article is merely a regurgitation of the club's statistics. This information is hardly encyclopedic and anyone interested can simply refer to the club's web site. Although I was happy to wikify this page into listcruft, I believe that it would be better to expand upon the Brockley, Suffolk article. I therefore vote to delete it.
