R. Black (Leicestershire cricketer)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

PROD inexplicably removed. Player has not played first-class cricket, as suggested in the article, and all we have is a first initial and his surname. Fails WP:CRIN. StickyWicket (talk) 13:47, 25 December 2018 (UTC)

 * Delete I assume it's the same case as this AfD?  Lugnuts  Fire Walk with Me 09:05, 26 December 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete. CRIN is not policy (but wikiproject consensus) - and is predicated (as in other sports) on players in major matches surely having coverage in various sport rags. While this seems to be the case in the modern era, this seems to be untrue for players from the 18th century - and the lack of sourcing here - as well as a lack of given name - rather indicate that this figure does not have WP:SIGCOV.

 * Delete - the reasons given above hit the nail on the head. The matches aren't first-class and we can't show any other notability so fails WP:GNG - we're looking at a name on 4 scorecard. Blue Square Thing (talk) 09:41, 26 December 2018 (UTC)


 * Delete - no biographical information, and what sourcing there is is not even enough to unambiguously identify the player. This is not enough for an article. Unclear rationale for deprod. Reyk YO! 09:28, 29 December 2018 (UTC)
