Blatant WP:NOTSTATS violation, as there is a ridiculous number of stats. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, which only needs keys stats, and the ones already listed at ICC World Test Championship#Tournament records and e.g. 2021–2023 ICC World Test Championship#Statistics are perfectly sufficient for that. This isn't a cricket fandom site, and so we don't need hundreds of statistics only sourced to one website. Joseph2302 (talk) 13:06, 9 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Delete or redirect to the World Test Championship article where I presume there might also be some form of statistical summary anyway. This is a step too far here. Blue Square Thing (talk) 06:33, 10 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Delete or redirect to the World Test Championship I created this page to maintain like limited overs World Cups records page. But as Joseph2302 said, here they are way too ridiculous. So this is what I expected. As per nom delete and redirect. Kirubar (talk) 12:02, 10 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Far too many stats, especially for a tournament which such a short history. A succinct summary on the main article page will suffice. StickyWicket (talk) 23:51, 10 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to ICC World Test Championship#Tournament records. This article is excessive statscruft and any particular record can just be found on Cricinfo. Ajf773 (talk) 21:40, 13 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
