2025 Women's Bangladesh Premier League

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

I first nominated this article for WP:PROD deletion with the following rationale:

"None of the three sources confirm the claims in this article, one states that the board is "thinking of launching their BPL" and only confirms that they will do a competition for school girls, one talks about an existing three-team tournament, and just states "If we can't start the women's franchise league in the next two seasons of BPL, we will try to do it in the third season.", while the final source, from yesterday, is the only one somewhat concrete about these plans, but only says "he possible time of the first season is December this year or January next year." and has no info on the format or the number of teams.

I don't know if the article as written is mostly speculation (which has no place on enwiki then) or based on another source than the ones given (even though the one from yesterday should be up to date), but as it stands the article is not acceptable."

Since then, the article has been ref-bombed but nothing has improved. For example, at the moment the "schedule" section, "Although the day of the tournament is not fully fixed so far, it is expected that, this year may begin late or February to March 2025.", is referenced by which has nothing at all about those dates, and is about school cricket for girls...

I have added Women's Bangladesh Premier League to this deletion discussion, as it is largely a duplicate of the above, with the same bad sourcing and speculation by the same editor. If an article on the WBPL is wanted, WP:TNT is the way to go. Fram (talk) 08:25, 28 February 2024 (UTC) Please add new comments below this notice.

 * Delete both Fails WP:GNG, there's nothing of note that's significant coverage, and mostly just waffle on a potential tournament that may or may not happen instead. Rugbyfan22 (talk) 20:12, 29 February 2024 (UTC)
 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.


 * Delete as WP:TOOSOON, so there doesn't look to be enough WP:SIGCOV right now (only a lot of speculation about what might happen). Probably not worth moving to draftspace, as the event isn't for 11-12 months, and so in 6 months time, it will likely still be too soon for an article. Joseph2302 (talk) 14:02, 6 March 2024 (UTC)
