edit@Mitratanmoy: If players don't pass notability then that is absolutely a reason to include them in a list; merging is listed as one of the alternatives to deletion at the deletion policy. It'd be a bit long to add to the regular team page, hence the reason for the list (e.g. in the example I cited, the Southwestern football coaches are discussed at List of Southwestern Moundbuilders head football coaches, not Southwestern Moundbuilders).

- @BeanieFan11: I understand what you are trying to explain. But I am not in agreement with this because of the following reasons. Firstly, why only Jersey women's team? There are 60 odd teams in women's cricket and 75 odd teams in men's cricket and most of them do not meet notability criteria. Will you be doing that for all of them? The reason I am asking is that we put a lot of efforts to maintain these lists to be in synch. Also, there are teams for which 40+ players have participated without meeting notability criteria. What will happen to those cases? Secondly, there are teams for which notable players are mentioned in the national team page only. I will share the page once I get some time to find out. I don't think adding these bios over there won't make the page look bad. After all you are adding player information for some players who have represented that team and should be ok. @Bs1jac:, need your inputs here. mitratanmoy 20:05, 11 July 2024 (UTC)
- @Mitratanmoy: The reason for only the Jersey team? Its because an editor put a very large amount of work into Jersey, because that's the list they felt like working on. One could do the same for the other lists if they want, but that doesn't require that we do it all at once, or that we remove these because not all the others have it. We could also remove the biographies from List of Southwestern Moundbuilders head football coaches as well "because List of Wyoming Cowboys head football coaches doesn't have it"; but I don't think that'd be better for the encyclopedia, as then anyone looking for those Southwestern coaches wouldn't learn anything about them. The same applies here. Also, IMO, it feels more appropriate to do it on a list – as its a list of the team's players, split-off from the main page to keep it from getting too long. Generally full-length biographies aren't added to the main team page, only brief descriptions as far as I'm aware. BeanieFan11 (talk) 16:17, 13 July 2024 (UTC)
