WP:GNG, as there is no sustaining coverage of this event. Articles on minor associate teams of non-notable people playing minor tournaments/series against each other is not the purpose of this encyclopedia. Joseph2302 (talk) 11:56, 16 February 2023 (UTC)[reply

Keep or at least redirect to Associate international cricket in 2022. There is at least some national mainstream media coverage from Gibraltar and there was a record or two set, but a redirect to a season summary page (which is designed to encompass all official ICC series to avoid articles on the least significant events) should be a minimum result.

Keep. I'm with Bs1jac on this one, but lean more toward keep over redirect. I think all international tournaments should have articles, but the players that take part, with the odd exception, should remain de-linked. StickyWicket (talk) 21:19, 17 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Why should all international tournaments should have articles? They should only have articles if they pass

My take isn't that every tournament should have an article, but established recurring annual events like this one should be considered if there is some coverage in the media of one of more competing nations. Bs1jac (talk) 12:23, 20 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Keep. I'm also with Bs1jac on this one, but think we should keep it. --Bduke (talk) 06:07, 24 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Keep as per Bs1jac's reasoning. I understand that every single international event isn't suitable for articles (although I personally do want that to happen), but this particular event does seem to have enough notable coverage. মাশ্‌ফী※Mashfi (ETP) 10:28, 24 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Just because it isn't wide spread, doesn't mean it shouldn't be on here. :_Signed, Pichemist ^{( Contribs | Talk )} 13:14, 1 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
