Wikipedia:Featured list removal candidates/List of Bangladesh Premier League captains/archive1

The following is an archived discussion of a featured list nomination. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the article's talk page or in Wikipedia talk:Featured list candidates. No further edits should be made to this page.

Notified: Pratyya Ghosh, WT:CRIC

I am nominating this for featured list removal because it is out of date and no attempt has been made to include the 2015 season which took place eight months ago. It cannot be a featured list if it is not being kept up to date. That is a problem with lists about an ongoing event. Regards, Naz | talk | contribs 06:44, 10 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Comment It'd be a shame if this gets demoted. What needs to be done is updating the list. Doesn't have to be demoted right away. Pinging Pratyya Ghosh — Mediran [talk] 05:50, 11 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Thanks Mediran for your comment. I actually updated that yesterday and had a very small work left to do and I've done it. I think rather than spending your time to nominate this FL for delisting it would've been better if you spent that time to update it, Nazcheema
You have written that I am nominating this for featured list removal because it is out of date and no attempt has been made to include the 2015 season which took place eight months ago. You could've taken that attempt.
Anyways no need to make this discussion any longer. Since I've already updated it, I think a reviewer should review and close this discussion. --Pratyya ^(Hello!) 13:17, 11 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Disagree , the list is now up to date. so as the reason of this nomination is now invalid. so keep the featured status. Ibrahim Husain Meraj (talk) 15:31, 11 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Comment @Pratyya Ghosh: Although you may have a point, please remember that editors are under no obligation to edit or improve specific articles. One of the requirements to maintain a list's status as featured is that is reasonably up-to-date. Articles are listed here for two reasons: they are in such a bad shape (and no one is interested in improving them) that they need to be removed to maintain WP:FL's high standards or as a way to encourage improvement of existing featured lists to bring them back up to an acceptable level. Just so you know, most WP:FLRC discussions stay open for at least 14 days to give editors adequate time to review and comment on the article and nomination.

Comment The list may have been updated but the prose in the lead has now been changed. Lead paragraphs should normally only have four and it currently has seven. Lead requires a copyedit before it can leave FLRC. Cowlibob (talk) 22:53, 6 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Issues @Pratyya Ghosh:
- with the exception of Season 3. Between the Second Season of BPL (2013) and Third Season of BPL (2015) - This part of the lead contradicts itself.
- The footnotes in the body use Greek letters while the footnotes section has digits. Really?
- These statistics are correct as of the 2015 season. - Interestingly enough the only reference retrieved after 2015 doesn't have any stats. What source are you using?
- Why is the nationality info from ESPN and not from the ICC?
- The list includes those players... - I think this paragraph can be placed under the captains section above the table.
- The Bangladesh Cricket Board link in the references and external links sections is dead.

@Crzycheetah: Have made some fixes based on these suggestions on behalf of the FL creator. I thought that Cricinfo is reliable for nationalities of cricket players. Does the ICC have its online database of player statistics which includes this information? Cowlibob (talk) 13:27, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Thanks, Cowlibob! As for nationalities, I believe the official website should be the most reliable. You always have to go with the nationality which is accepted by ICC, so this page has to be checked.--Cheetah (talk) 01:42, 29 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

No consensus to delist. --Pres N 22:19, 7 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
