Talk:2015–16 Big Bash League season

Player rankings

Karyasuman - maybe you could explain why these are needed? They've been removed twice by two different editors. Please reach a consensus before they are re-added. Thanks. Lugnuts ^{Dick Laurent is dead} 08:16, 14 January 2016 (UTC)

I guess they (Player Rankings) perfectly accomplish the task of showing the best performers in the league which is definitely not shown in the stats, particularly more so with the all-rounders. Moreover, they are official BBL ratings provided by Cricket Australia and this page should provide as much information which is viable related to the league. Surely, people shouldn't have a problem with this? These type of information should easily be accessible through Wikipedia. Karyasuman (talk) 10:42, 14 January 2016 (UTC)

• Exclude. We already have most runs and wickets; the rankings are a lot vaguer, and the reader is left baffled as to how they were determined. StAnselm (talk) 02:32, 15 January 2016 (UTC)
• Exclude Just because they are reported elsewhere does not mean they need reporting here. Per WP:IINFO # - "Excessive listings of statistics". Lugnuts ^{Dick Laurent is dead} 09:52, 15 January 2016 (UTC)

1. Maybe then you should remove match summaries as well, they are reported everywhere else, and maybe even top wicket takers and run makers. Too many stats! Karyasuman (talk) 10:28, 15 January 2016 (UTC)

2. Even ICC ranking should be a lot vague for you, why not remove them. And yes, let these articles remain a stub because of a conservative approach. Haha, official rankings are vague, original research maybe? As to how they are calculated, official rankings have a link to that. Readers are baffled? Another original research. Cool.

3. Excessive listing of stats? Hardly more than 3 stats on the page. I've seen much more than them on tournament pages, what else would you expect? Going by what they mention, if opinion polls are good enough, I hardly find BBL rankings to be less important for this page. And in my view, I did "consider using tables to enhance the readability of data lists". That section was hardly 5 cms long but created such a fuss. I am really disappointed with such an attitude.

• Exclude per Anselm amd Lugnuts. I don't see how it adds value and I'm sorry but, personally, I don't support the use of statistics unless they are necessary or at least adding definite value for the benefit of the readers. Jack | ^{talk page} 09:45, 21 January 2016 (UTC)
