2007 Cricket World Cup squads
Support: Nomination. A list page that captures the details of the squads of the 16 teams. FLC material. I made very few edits in the run-up to the nomination. Please leave feedback and i shall respond to the same.Kalyan 17:26, 30 May 2007 (UTC)

I've given the lead a quick copyedit. Other than that, looks good, though I am not familiar with the Featured List criteria. →Ollie (talk • contribs) 19:08, 30 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Support Looks good; some red links for the domestic teams but that isn't really important regarding the list.--THUG CHILD z  19:51, 30 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Support. yeah boy. -- Phoenix2  (holla) 20:09, 31 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Support. No problems here. Could do with some input here from some non-cricketing editors however, I feel. AllynJ 09:15, 2 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment I'm concerned with the big clusters of redlinks for the teams columns in several countries. Makes the article look untidy. And what's up with the format for Pakistan??
 * Response: Cricket has a 2-tier system. 9 countries - England, Australia, India, Pakistan, West Indies, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, South Africa and New Zealand form the first tier (test playing nations) and the club system in these countries are well developed. Zimbabwe was a test playing nation but lost rights to play in test matches recently as many players quit because of political upheaval. The rest of the countries that participated in the tournament are associate nations and the club system is not well developed or documented and hence the lack of wiki articles on these clubs.
 * With respect to Pakistan, they recently launced a seperate team system for different formats of the game. Thus the mention of both the teams that a player concurrently represents. Kalyan 09:50, 7 June 2007 (UTC)


 * Number of ODIs played up until the start of the World Cup on March 13, 2007. Numbers only include appearances for the player's current national side.
 * Does "current" here refers to June or March 2007? See WP:DATED.
 * "Current" as it stands refers to the country and not the date. after reading the comment and the footnote, i believe that the word 'current' is not neccesary and removed it.

 *  Conditional Support Good looking list and very easy to navigate.Timpcrk87 13:18, 7 June 2007 (UTC)
 * I don't know much about cricket so I don't have any idea what an ODI is, could you add the definition to the fourth note.
 * Done. Kalyan 09:50, 7 June 2007 (UTC)


 * There is no explanation for England's replacement player Stuart Broad like there are for New Zealand's replacements.
 * Done. Kalyan 09:50, 7 June 2007 (UTC)


 * While the redlinks for club teams is not desirable, I don't consider it a problem. This is a list of players, not clubs.

 * I know the list is about players, not clubs, and I wouldn't oppose on that ground (frankly, if I knew a bit more aout cricket, I would probably support, but I don't feel I can judge this accurately). It,s the fact they make these BIG red splashes on the page that I'm a bit concerned about. Circeus 23:08, 6 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Please see explanation above on the red-links. Kalyan 09:50, 7 June 2007 (UTC)
