I am nominating this for featured list because I think that it meats the criteria. Some changes might be required but I am completely open to any constructive criticism. Bharatiya29 22:39, 22 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Resolved comments from ChrisTheDude (talk) 19:59, 6 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
;Comments
  • "such as the Indian Premier League and the Big Bash League." - as the former has the country in its name, it may be worth clarifying the country of the other one
  • "63 players had captained" => "63 players captained"
  • "MS Dhoni played the most number of matches " => "MS Dhoni played the highest number of matches". You use "most number" several times, these all need changing to "highest number"
  • "Only three players captained more than two teams in the CLT20" - the players in question captained two teams, not more than two (this also applies to the image caption).
  • In the key: "Team(s) for which the player has played as captain in at least one match" => "Team(s) for which the player played as captain in at least one match"
  • All notes other than 4 and 6 are not full sentences so should not have full stops.
  • Think that's it from me...... -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 13:09, 6 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
 Done Thanks for your review. Bharatiya29 13:34, 6 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Done. Thanks! Bharatiya29 06:48, 11 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Comments from Harrias[edit]

  • Off the top of my head, Somerset were known as "Somerset Sabres" in 2009 (but just Somerset by 2011), Hampshire were known as "Hampshire Royals" in 2012, and Yorkshire were known as "Yorkshire Carnegie" in 2012.
  • I determined all the team names through the tweets by the official CLT20 handle. For example, none of their tweets regarding Hampshire uses the word "Royals". (I can't provide the link for the search results as it is blacklisted.) Bharatiya29 16:35, 28 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • That be as it may, that is how those clubs were officially known in T20 cricket at the time. Here is a source for the Somerset Sabres in 2009 and this one for both Hampshire Royals and Yorkshire Carnegie in 2012. Harrias talk 17:44, 28 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • No need for accessdates for book sources (ref #2 and ref #3).
  • What value does the nationality column add?
  • I followed the precedent set by the existing FL List of Indian Premier League captains. I am aware that the justification given for the nationality column in the past was the limit on the overseas players in domestic tournaments like the IPL, which makes one's nationality an important factor. The overseas limit continued to be enforced in the CLT20 (at least for IPL teams as far as I know), so I think that the nationality column does add a minute value. Although if there is a consensus that the list will be better off without it, I am willing to remove it. Bharatiya29 16:35, 28 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • "Among the captains who captained.." The repetition makes this clunky, consider rephrasing.

Generally very good, not too much from me. If you get a chance, I would appreciate it if you would consider taking a look at Wikipedia:Featured list candidates/England cricket team Test results (1960–1974)/archive1. Harrias talk 10:17, 28 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Thanks for your comments. I have given the justification for point 1 and 3, rest two are done. Bharatiya29 16:35, 28 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

A few more minor issues:

  • The key table needs row and column scopes, and ideally a caption, to meet MOS:DTT accessibility requirements.
  • You now need a note for the English counties mentioned above: on Yorkshire Carnegie stating that they are now known as "Yorkshire Vikings", Somerset Sabres known as Somerset, and Hampshire Royals known as Hampshire.
  • Be consistent with your formatting in the references: ref #5 uses "Last, First" for the author, but refs #2 and #3 use "First Last". Also, "Cricket Australia" should not be listed as an author for ref #2.
  • All the "Records / Champions League Twenty20..." references need an endash instead of a hyphen per our MOS.

Just a note: I am taking part in the WikiCup, and will be claiming points for this review. Harrias talk 09:59, 1 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Source review passed; promoting. --PresN 22:39, 4 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
