Talk:2011 Cricket World Cup 2nd semi-final

This is poorly written and unedited shit. I don't know enough about the sport or the match in question, but someone should redo this whole thing. It's infantile in its current stage. Rohan Ghatak (talk) 19:22, 1 April 2011 (UTC)Rohan
 * I agree about the quality, and from a cricket fan's perspective, I would challenge the notability of this match. Yes, the match was big news in India and Pakistan and there was hype about it, but now that it has come and gone it will quickly fade into obscurity. Let's have a quick look at Notability (events)
 * An event that is a precedent or catalyst for something else of lasting significance is likely to be notable.
 * Lasting significance? No.


 * I guess you have no idea what an lasting significance it has had and will continue to have in the future of Indian and Pakistani cricket.
 * Notable events usually have significant impact over a wide region, domain, or widespread societal group.
 * Significant impact? No.


 * Again, this has had an impact on a major region of the world (India holds 18% of the world population!), and the cricket community.
 * An event must receive significant or in-depth coverage to be notable.
 * Significant coverage? Definately in the subcontinant, so 'Yes'.
 * Notable events usually receive coverage beyond a relatively short news cycle.
 * Coverage up until the match, and as soon as it happened, everyone moved onto the Grand Final. So, 'No'.
 * No doubt this game deserves a mention in the 2011 Cricket World Cup article, in context of the rivalry between the two teams and the unique occasion of co-hosting the WC, but it does not deserve it's own article.

 * I believe that the speculations are baseless. The match deserves a page. On the other hand I see only 6 edits from you so far on WP. I seriously doubt your credibility for making such edits. ashwinikalantri  talk 08:16, 4 April 2011 (UTC)
 * I have no problem with you disagreeing, but discuss the problems with what I said, not who I am (and, for the record, I made quite a few edits before creating an account. However irrelavent that is). Why do you think this will have a lasting significance? So much so, in fact, that these points couldn't just be contained within the WC page? I just had a quick glance over the last few WCs, and the only other (not grand-) final that has it's own page is 1999 Cricket World Cup 2nd semi-final between RSA and AUS, which was exceptional for a few reasons, the greatest of which is probably the tied result. So, would it be safe to assume that you believe this match compares to the '99 semi? I'd really like to see a few more people weigh in on this, and a consensus reached. (Anyone?...)Spadge88 (talk) 08:01, 5 April 2011 (UTC)


 * There is no way that this game deserves its own page. I made the 1999 second semi final page because that was a great game of cricket. This game was just an ordinary match. The football world cup does not have wikipedia articles for random semi finals matches. Walsh11111 (talk) 05:04, 3 September 2011 (UTC)


 * This game really deserves a page. Karthik Nadar (talk) 18:17, 27 September 2011 (UTC)
