423:. Note that that requires the listings to be excessive and unexplained. The proposal for a merge here is to merge one list of Hussey's centuries only, which is a limited list, in which each entry is validly sourced and explained; centuries are a well-recognised achievement by a batsman in cricket so it's not indiscriminate or inappropriate to the article; and with a bit of background text the list can be easily incorporated as part of the main article. I'm actually not sure what the purpose of a redirect with no merging would be - the proposal for a merge is to maintain some of the content in a place that is potentially more appropriate for it. A merge is not inappropriate and is the best solution.
464:
Those are poor responses that don't change anything I have said above. A merge does not set any sort of precedent. One list (of centuries, which are limited) is not excessive, and your comment that it is based on one source does not make it "unexplained" (and it's a stupid comment anyway, as cricket
502:
I perfectly understood you the first time. Your arguments are bad. This is an AfD for
Michael Hussey. It is not some request for comment about all cricket players, so don't try to make this something that it isn't and make spurious arguments. There is no "precedent". A century is the highest honour
445:
A merge sets a precedent that every cricketer needs his or her own list of centuries on their Wiki article. Lists of centuries are indeed statistics, and excessive, especially when the content is entirely sourced from one source (ESPNCricinfo). This is why I'm opposed to merging these articles into
692:
with the possibility of some prose being added to the player's article. These sorts of tables need to be supported by prose and considered on an individual basis if they're going to be included on the individual's article. I would rather see a summary added than a table such as this - if this were
525:
It's NOT an AfD for
Michael Hussey. It's an AfD for a list of centuries scored by him and entirely sourced by a single reference and easily found using the statsguru underneath that reference. The only details that really matter are the number of career centuries, not every single little detail of
483:
I don't know if you understood me the first time, but if a player has scored, say, 20 international centuries across all formats in the game, does that mean a player who has scored just three deserves a list under their profile. This is exactly the precedent we are setting by merging. Also can you
395:
387:
391:
544:
My point was that the AfD does not relate to lists of cricket centuries for every cricketer, it only relates to those by
Michael Hussey. Please stop trying to take points out of this to justify your claim, it just makes your points look even more spurious.
204:
138:
133:

that is not inappropriate. The sourcing is entirely fine for an article outside of a list. Deletion is a poor and lazy option here and editors need to find other solutions rather than just nominating the article for deletion.

602:
does not count as centuries are a small and rather exclusive part of a cricketers career. If it was his whole international career details I would have said delete, but it's not so its def a merge.
235:
The consensus about such lists is that they should not exist unless there is coverage in reliable sources where they are discussed as a group. As no coverage was found, so this list fails

statistics can easily be found elsewhere (ever heard of Wisden, for example?)). Most of the article is prose anyway, adding a single table won't change things overall.

Detailing significant numbers in prose alone is cumbersome and impairs readability, so tables are the way to go, especially in a statistics driven sport.

define excessive? What is encyclopedic about knowing so many details about the match in which the player achieved each century?
106:
102:

My vote to redirect (or delete) stands. And my reasoning applies to lists relating to any other international cricketer.
