List of Japan women ODI cricketers

 * Nominator(s):  Harrias  talk 17:26, 25 September 2011 (UTC)

Another list of women cricketers, modelled from List of South Africa women ODI cricketers and other current FLCs. A reasonably short list, it is unlikely that Japan will play any further ODIs in the near future, so it will remain stable for the foreseeable future. As always, all comments and suggestions are welcome.  Harrias  talk 17:26, 25 September 2011 (UTC)

Oppose (sorry.. see my fifth point below) The Rambling Man (talk) 18:36, 30 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Would put ICC in parentheses after the full name since it's used in ref 4 as ICC.
 * Don't you think you should be consistent with the use of One Day.. vs One-Day (refs...)?
 * No image at all, nothing even tenuously related to this list?
 * "Japan in One Day International cricket." why suddenly expand ODI again?
 * Actually, now I'm looking in more detail, this is probably a 3b fail, the Japanese women have only ever played ODI cricket, and that should be covered in Japan national women's cricket team which is barely a stub....
 * Question that affects probably all of these lists... if someone doesn't bowl, their bowling stats are represented as en-dashes. But surely that same logic should be applied to wicket-keepers?  Would we expect someone who isn't a wickie to be able to stump someone?

With regards to criterium 3b, I suspect you have a fair point. I'd like a little time to look into their recent appearances in the East Asia-Pacific Women's Cricket Challenge / Trophy and their upcoming matches in the ICC Women's World Cup Qualifying Series. Although none of these matches will have ODI status, they still provide part of the history of Japanese women's cricket for the main article. Even given this though, I suspect this list would be better as part of that article. I will nevertheless address your other points, and would invite any others, as even if it does get merged into that article, it'd be nice if it could be of high a quality as possible!

Due to the 3b failure, I would like to withdraw the article from FLC. Thank you!  Harrias  talk 20:44, 12 October 2011 (UTC)
