Upon WP:BEFORE he seems to have a borderline pass of WP:NCRIC but complete failure of WP:GNG. I cannot really seem to find very much about him at all. snood1205 17:25, 29 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to List of Western Australia first-class cricketers Does pass WP:NCRIC, but with only 1 appearance it's a cursory pass only. In terms of GNG there are passing mentions but not enough for a GNG pass in an online search, there may be more offline. Redirect is a suitable WP:ATD though.

Redirect: to List of Western Australia first-class cricketers. A garbage sub-stub creation that points up the longstanding deficiencies in NCRIC, this is a complete failure of the GNG. It's not even so much that significant coverage is lacking; it's that there isn't ANY coverage worth the mention. Ravenswing 19:45, 29 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to List of Western Australia first-class cricketers. That is the correct way to handle statistical database scrapes such as this one. Reyk _YO! 19:48, 29 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
If no one can find anything detailed on him, then I'm happy with the redirect as suggested. Blue Square Thing (talk) 21:48, 29 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to List of Western Australia first-class cricketers as proposed, however passes WP:NCRIC. MagentaSwann (talk) 01:09, 2 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
