Prodded with the justification Violates the general criteria of WP:NOTDATABASE, and fails WP:GNG and WP:SPORTCRIT #5. Also fails WP:NOLYMPICS, as only two teams participated. An attempt to find additional sources failed, and WikiProject Cricket was also unable to help.

Prod was removed with the comment there could be more info in local sources BilledMammal (talk) 08:06, 9 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• Redirect to Cricket at the 1900 Summer Olympics#Medalists Subject fails the new updated guidelines, but clearly existed and won a medal at the Olympic games, which should be noted in some form, if not an article. Redirect is a suitable WP:ATD. Rugbyfan22 (talk) 19:31, 11 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
• Redirect to Cricket at the 1900 Summer Olympics#Medalists. There has been some discussion about this at the cricket wikiproject, and there seems to be the view that a set of notes could be put together with basic details about the players involved. In this case there may not be that much, but we have basic biographical details. Blue Square Thing (talk) 20:06, 12 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
