The consensus about such lists is that they should at least have a minimum of 25 centuries in international format WP:NLIST. -Lesenwriter (talk) 09:36, 20 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

- Merge into main article. Nigej (talk) 16:01, 20 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Redirect and not merge to player article per WP:NOTSTATS as per three most recent discussions: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of international cricket centuries by Michael Atherton, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of international cricket centuries by Tom Latham, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of international cricket centuries by Dinesh Chandimal.

- Merge. No issues with inclusion in the main subject article, per WP:NOTSTATS and WP:SPLIT. Lists of international centuries, by definition, have the necessary context and explanation so do not fail NOTSTATS in this regard. wjematherplease leave a message... 13:17, 22 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment - note to closing admin - there was a RfC on this and the consensus on WP:CRIC was to remove these statistics from bios per WP:NOTSTATS. Störm (talk) 06:56, 24 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Not true:
"There's no consensus here that they should universally be included. Nor is there a clear consensus that such sections should be removed from all cricketer articles."

- Delete - unnecessary stats like this might be summarised in a prose section, possibly with a very short summary table, but this sort of detail simply takes over articles. Blue Square Thing (talk) 17:01, 24 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Redirect - better make redirect to Babar Azam and not necessary to merge since we have already reached a consensus not to include the list of centuries scored or 5 wicket hauls taken in the biographical articles of the cricketers. Abishe (talk) 08:59, 27 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Recent discussions have resulted in "merge" (Martyn, Hafeez), "redirect and merge if anyone wants to" (Atherton, Latham, Chandimal), or "redirect but no consensus to merge" (Guptill, Ali). Nowhere is there consensus not to merge, and that is explicit in the closing statements. wjematherplease leave a message... 10:00, 27 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.Relisting comment: Consensus is not established, clearly, and with one delete argument and the comment about the RfC, I don't feel comfortable just closing this as "don't delete but figure it out elsewhere".
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, ♠PMC♠ (talk) 20:39, 2 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Redirect To the main article. I am not sure if there would be a need to dedicate a separate section on main article about these particular statistics. Krao212 (talk) 02:40, 7 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
