I am nominating this for featured article because Chennai Super Kings is the richest cricket club in the world with a brand value of more than $48 million.The club also having secured the IPL Trophy and the Champions League title in the same year has also been the most successful domestic club in the world.The Club has been producing larger no. of fans for cricket thanks to their high-profile marketing skills.The club remains to be one of the most favourite sporting franchises worldwide.Hence,I'd like this article to be featured by Wikipedia.

 * Oppose. Featured article candidates are promoted on the basis of the quality of the article, not the quality of the subject. This article is almost entirely lacking in citations and therefore fails FA criterion 1c. Ucucha 14:12, 28 October 2010 (UTC)


 * Oppose, unfortunately - although I'm sure the club is an important one, the article is not at FA standard. It has only 5 references, 3 of which are bare URLs. I recommend trying for WP:PR or WP:GAN to get some feedback before heading back here. Nikkimaria (talk) 14:14, 28 October 2010 (UTC)
