  • Keep Professional first class cricketer. See Cricinfo for details. --Mattinbgn/ talk 03:54, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Strong keep Top-flight professional cricketer, sources appear to verify all info given. - Iridescenti (talk to me!) 12:30, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep. Even if the sources don't validate given content, unless there's strong reason to assume it's promotional in nature or blatantly incorrect those are reasons for cleanup rather than deletion. - Mgm|(talk) 12:34, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
I've placed a dab notice on Matthew Wood (cricketer) to point here. I'd support a move to Matthew James Wood to avoid the ambiguity and the odd title with two modifiers. A middle name works just as well. - Mgm|(talk) 12:38, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
Keep and move per Mgm. -- BPMullins | Talk 14:46, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep though should be a little better sourced to verify the claim of being a professional - not to mention the fact that sources should really be listed as references, not external links :) Article does need some cleanup, and please move it to a better title per Mgm - the existing double-modified title is just ugly.

I am currently trying to write an entry for every first class cricketer who has played for Yorkshire CCC. By definition a first class cricketer is a notable person. The entry will be expanded and properly presented soon but I can't do everything at once. The sources for the statistics, Cricket Archive, will be given.
