Comment - It goes to show how much more information can be written about an individual when focusing on their achievements if you want to stretch it out to several paragraphs. This is why I just like an article which states facts. Like I always say, any more material than the facts would frankly be just waffle. And that's true for every first-class player. As an U19 Test player there must be somewhere there is more written about this individual somewhere, although it will probably take some finding. Bobo . 23:05, 13 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete or merge/redirect to List of Redco Pakistan Limited cricketers. Subject nominally passes NCRIC, which by consensus only provides an extremely weak presumption of notability that is very unreliable for cricketers such as these (recent NSPORT discussion here), but absolutely fails all meaningful guidelines including GNG and SPORTCRIT. Article is built entirely from wide ranging databases and match scorecards; no substantial sources. _wjemather^{please leave a message...} 12:09, 15 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

As always, it's a credit to the project that we had the foresight to create these pages, especially when for years and years the same people who are now pushing deletionism were saying that these lists were unnecessary. Bobo . 17:10, 15 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete It is time that we started actually enforcing the minimum requirements for notability on Wikipedia.John Pack Lambert (talk) 21:38, 15 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete I agree it seems silly to waste all this time going through this Deletion process over and over. Hope we tighten up the rules and guidelines for acceptance of New Articles to begin with. At least 2 working reliable references for the person's notability? Only 1 out of 2 external links worked for me and gave some information about the player. All the other 8 given references go to the same promotional ad of Cricket Archive with no info on Zayyad Qayyum. Ngrewal1 (talk) 22:40, 17 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
