USA can still finish in top eight

USA can still finish in top eight of 2022 world cup, so the qualification should include USA till it is officially declared. But the same when I edited for on 2nd July, then it was not displaying. why? Anishssgj (talk) 02:24, 3 July 2022 (UTC)

USA host status with regards to qualifying

Kia ora (hello) everyone

As per this article, USA are no longer an official co-host of the WC (from what I can gather). Does anyone know of any sources which state their qualifying status? I'm leaving it as is for now, but as usual, the ICC has been very vague on this matter.

What. It is a host. Thanks KakapoKiwi12 (talk) 22:58, 27 October 2022 (UTC)

They are still hosts, but they have been removed from the organising part of hosting. Moedk (talk) 05:29, 21 November 2022 (UTC)

OK, so they qualify automatically, but don't organize anything. KakapoKiwi12 (talk) 23:41, 21 November 2022 (UTC)

Yes, at the moment it is still planned to host matches in USA, but WI have all organising responsibilities. Moedk (talk) 06:46, 23 November 2022 (UTC)

Qualification graphic

From ICC - See ICC graphic 110.33.28.251 (talk) 12:52, 4 November 2022 (UTC)

For those who can't click on things for some reason, here is the relevant text:

ICC MEN'S T20 WORLD CUP 2024 - 20 TEAMS

2 host nations - USA and West Indies

Top 8 teams at the ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2022 (top 4 teams in each Super 12 group)

Top 2† best ranked unqualified teams (In the MRF Tyres ICC Men's T20I Team Rankings on 14 November 2022)

8 qualifiers through regional finals

† if the USA and/or West Indies finish in the top 8 at the ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2022, the 3-4 best-ranked unqualified teams qualify

Hope that clears things up 110.33.28.251 (talk) 00:33, 5 November 2022 (UTC)

@Virander.sirohi: please see the above and state your interpretationSpike 'em (talk) 15:30, 5 November 2022 (UTC)

Or this source: [1]

What I seriously don't understand is this. Sure, the ICC often says "Top 8 qualify" but that is just a quick vague description, which could mean a couple of different things. However, whenever they clarify what that means, it is always clear: "Top 4 teams in each Super 12 group". If there was something that said "Top 8 results across the two groups" I might have a bit more sympathy to this. Also, the way the WIndies and US are treated in this wouldn't make any sense if it were Top 8 overall, you wouldn't need to include their possible results in the mix if that were the case - it would happen naturally. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 110.33.28.251 (talk) 02:06, 6 November 2022 (UTC)

Qualifiers by ranking

Cricket News — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ams2255 (talk • contribs) 04:20, 6 January 2024 (UTC)

Probably good to get consensus (or historical precedent) on when this is "determined". Regardless of whether India win their last match I am 99.9999% sure the teams will be Afghanistan and Bangladesh, but I'm not sure what to use to "prove" this - as the rankings on the link are at 31 October (and have some errors compared with the ICC page as well). Does that current list suffice as "evidence", or do we need an update to (say) the last game any relevant team plays (ie, up to 6 November) or do we need to wait for the 14 November update. 110.33.28.251 (talk) 09:36, 6 November 2022 (UTC)

You might note this has already been effectively factored into the qualification tournament links (so Zimbabwe is listed in the Africa final, Ireland in the Europe one, but Bangladesh and Afghanistan not in the Asian one) 110.33.28.251 (talk) 11:33, 6 November 2022 (UTC)

Maybe wait for the ICC out some other reliable source to state "Afg and Bang have qualified sure to rankings" Spike 'em (talk) 12:26, 6 November 2022 (UTC)

Cricinfo says Afg Ban already qualified. I guess the ranking wont change much on 14th. Human (talk) 01:08, 7 November 2022 (UTC)

Zimbabwe and Ireland

Is there a reason Zimbabwe and Ireland were promoted to "Qualified". I saw User: 2001:8F8:1D61:6A1B:4D19:B52C:A9DE:9808 went ahead and updated almost 5-6 pages with this information. Have there been any changes? Sputink (talk) 19:58, 3 January 2023 (UTC)

Maps and stadiums

After much discussion and so on, we decided to remove the photos and simplify the layout of these on the 2023 Cricket World Cup article. For the same reasons I'll propose doing so here as well, Blue Square Thing (talk) 20:50, 19 November 2023 (UTC)

Bump this for comment. Also, given the recent change made to the list, do we actually know the venues rather than just the countries? This strikes me as someone having a guess that if it's county X then it must be ground Y rather than, outside the USA, us actually knowing which grounds will be played on yet? Blue Square Thing (talk) 07:09, 29 November 2023 (UTC)

Unless there's sources for the venues, it seems like WP:SYNTH to assume they'll all be in the biggest cricket stadiums in a country. Brian Lara Cricket Academy and the US venues have been confirmed, but as far as I can see, the Caribbean venues have not- only the hosting countries. Joseph2302 (talk) 11:10, 29 November 2023 (UTC)

This is now done with one way of doing it. If anyone knows if there's a map of just the eastern Caribbean that would be helpful - far too much blank space. I'm sure this will all be reverted without a comment here - discuss first please: no one raised objections. I've cut the data to just the confirmed venues and commented out the sections that will need to be added. There's also a commented out number of matches column that can be added once we actually know the number of matches. I imagine a photo of the Kensington Oval might be appropriate as that's the final venue. Blue Square Thing (talk) 10:34, 1 December 2023 (UTC)

Thanks for that, looks much better, though as you say, I'm sure someone will unilaterally revert back to the version with the unsourced venues and the maps in the middle. As for the Caribbean image issue, not sure it's easily fixable, as the template is using Module:Location map/data/Caribbean which fixes the image, and there isn't an equivalent module for "Eastern Caribbean"/"West Indies" so far as I can see. Joseph2302 (talk) 11:31, 1 December 2023 (UTC)

And I see that Pkr206 is adding the countries back that haven't confirmed their venues.... Joseph2302 (talk) 14:15, 1 December 2023 (UTC)

Tbh, it's a bit silly to not include the countries that are still confirmed, especially when they only have one venue it could possibly be. Removing the venues just seems like blindly following rules, rather than going with reality, and it makes the page less accurate overall. Edit: This is even mentioned in WP:SYNTH with "Any straightforward reading of such media is not original research provided that there is consensus among editors that the techniques used are correctly applied and a meaningful reflection of the sources." It's a pretty straight forward reading of the sources, that at least in Guyana, Providence will be used as it's the only stadium available.Basetornado (talk) 14:32, 1 December 2023 (UTC)

All of the countries have more than one cricket stadium, so it could be any of them hosting it. Joseph2302 (talk) 14:47, 1 December 2023 (UTC)

They don't though. The other grounds are either abandoned or are not used for international games. I understand your point, but it feels like the worst part of wikipedia, where common sense is ignored, because it doesn't have a source explictly stating the ground, despite the sources we do have, making it clear what grounds are in play because it's not necessary to say it due to the context, which is where the "Straightforward reading" comes into play. Removing them from the page, just makes things more difficult for the reader. I understand if it gets changed, and i'm not going to stop you. But it is only making the page worse overall. Basetornado (talk) 15:09, 1 December 2023 (UTC)

Except for Guyana, which only has Providence Stadium and Bourda is no longer in use. Pkr206 (talk) 15:48, 1 December 2023 (UTC)

Just be patient and wait. We’re jumping the gun again and speculating. That’s a pretty poor way to build something reliable and trustworthy. It doesn’t have to be added right now. Given that places have already pulled out, let’s try and wait and actually get it right for a change Blue Square Thing (talk) 15:14, 1 December 2023 (UTC)

This isn't speculation though. It's using context. I will also say that I don't really trust your edits, after you reverted back one of mine after I fixed your writing that made no sense, telling me to "Trust you" that it did make sense, even though it clearly didn't. Basetornado (talk) 15:20, 1 December 2023 (UTC)

Can we at least add back the photos, I understand only going with the confirmed venues, but it looks much worse without the photos. It just looks unfinished now. Basetornado (talk) 14:02, 1 December 2023 (UTC)

It is a lot more readable without them. One of the Kensington Oval might be appropriate if it is actually going to be the ground they play the final on. Anything else is probably a really bad idea Blue Square Thing (talk) 15:16, 1 December 2023 (UTC)

If you say so. It just looks a bit empty without them. Basetornado (talk) 15:21, 1 December 2023 (UTC)

Fixture lists

Is there an actual source for the fixture lists, and even the teams in the groups? [2] says they know the groups, but unless information is actually confirmed by the ICC, it seems like WP:SPECULATION to me. The entire groups and fixture lists being added don't seem to have actually been confirmed by the ICC, it would make sense for them to actually announce it instead of copying other new sources' claims of groups for this event. Joseph2302 (talk) 14:58, 5 January 2024 (UTC)

Descent to garbage status

Apparently it is vital to have not one, but two, lists of the venues and locations and capacities, but also the utterly critical information of how may matches are played at each ground. Yet, it isn't particularly important that, given the qualification to the second stage is LITERALLY DETERMINED BY THE SEEDING, what the seeding is. In fact, this information actually is actively removed by editors who then seek to close off access to anyone fixing their garbage. 0/10, would laugh at again (particularly when people start adding second round qualification in and do it wrong). 165.12.252.116 (talk) 04:28, 11 January 2024 (UTC)

I propose having a seperate page for all the groups, super 8s and knockouts. They would look like this:

2024 ICC Men's T20 World Cup Group A

2024 ICC Men's T20 World Cup Group B

2024 ICC Men's T20 World Cup Group C

2024 ICC Men's T20 World Cup Group D

2024 ICC Men's T20 World Cup Group E

2024 ICC Men's T20 World Cup Group F

2024 ICC Men's T20 World Cup knockout stage

This was done for articles relating to the 2007 Cricket World Cup, for example Pharaoh496 (talk) 12:44, 30 May 2024 (UTC)

I Just saw this comment; even though I support it its too many articles; I'd say:

• 2024 ICC Men's T20 World Cup group stage
• 2024 ICC Men's T20 World Cup super 8
• 2024 ICC Men's T20 World Cup knockout stage

Would be enough.

usually if there is one group you have one group stage. if its multiple you have for all of them.

We had four for the 2007 wc, keep in mind they had 4 teams a group. We have five here, so that would increase page scope. Pharaoh496 (talk) 18:03, 1 June 2024 (UTC)

Hi, I think it is not necessary to create those separate articles. Fade258 (talk) 05:35, 4 June 2024 (UTC)

I am obviously late to this, but I don't see why we need pages for each group when it can be included on one article. I know it is sometimes done in major football ('soccer') tournaments, but feels unnecessary here. Bs1jac (talk) 14:15, 7 June 2024 (UTC)

• Has been done in cricket pages as well. We always have atleast one for each group
• "Not Needed:" How can you determine this really? It looks neat, main page is short and wont be too long when a summary is added. Plus, the seperate pages have more compiled information.

Pharaoh496 (talk) 14:21, 7 June 2024 (UTC)

Points system

The article says that the "top two" teams from each group advance to the next stage, but does not explain how the "top two" are determined. The tables apparently show that teams win points in the group stage (and also Super 8?) that determine the rankings within the groups. How points are obtained should be explained in the article (as well as any tie-break system for when two teams have the same number of points, if it is possible for that to happen). --superioridad ^(discusión) 18:01, 7 June 2024 (UTC)

About marking teams as qualified in groups

I think while the groups are ongoing, we should continue listing Q/E for all teams in all the groups. Otherwise it becomes very hard to tell from a glance that (for example) Afghanistan/West Indies are both guaranteed qualified (so Group C has everyone "advanced") versus the other groups (Group A has top 2 teams coloured green, but only India ia qualified for sure yet). Soni (talk) 17:09, 14 June 2024 (UTC)

In other groups, green colored text says "Advance to Super 8"; But Group C - green colored text says "Advanced to Super 8" (past tense). Vestrian24Bio (TALK) 17:13, 14 June 2024 (UTC)

That's a minor enough difference that it's very easy to miss. We have three indicators (Advance/Q-E/colours). If we can use multiple of them to make things clear, we should. There's no cost to listing Q/E right now and a clear loss if we dont (If you don't notice past tense, this is misleading) Soni (talk) 18:33, 14 June 2024 (UTC)

Let's just use the Q/E its better that the red color. Vestrian24Bio (TALK) 00:54, 15 June 2024 (UTC)

Red for elimination

I don't think red should be used as the teams aren't being relegated anywhere and it is usually used for such Wigglebot23 (talk) 21:32, 14 June 2024 (UTC)

I agree with that red colors shouldn't be used here. Vestrian24Bio (TALK) 00:46, 15 June 2024 (UTC)

Paragraph under the table in Super 8 section

Do we need the following paragraph under the table in Super 8 section?

Prior to the tournament, 8 teams were seeded the Super 8 stage — Australia, India, New Zealand and Sri Lanka in Group 1 while England, Pakistan, South Africa and the West Indies in Group 2. If they advance from the group stage, they will be placed in pre-determined positions in the Super 8 stage, irrespective of their position in the group stage. If an unseeded team qualifies at the expense of a seeded team, they will take the position of the corresponding seeded team that failed to qualify from the group.

All these information are already given in the format section, and also explained in the notes below the table. Vestrian24Bio (TALK) 02:30, 15 June 2024 (UTC)

I think that info is more relevant in the super 8 section than the format. During Super 8, how teams were allotted into the two groups is more important than halfway up the article. The Super 8 template might also be useful to edit, it feels very cumbersome to have a note beside every team in super 8. Soni (talk) 14:35, 15 June 2024 (UTC)

Maybe shorten some info in the Super 8 section, as the rest is available under Format section. Vestrian24Bio (TALK) 14:52, 15 June 2024 (UTC)

Also, the paragraph should be placed above the table rather than below it. Vestrian24Bio (TALK) 14:54, 15 June 2024 (UTC)

• That paragraph may have evolved from the footnotes that were added after people kept removing qualified teams on the grounds that they hadn't locked in their seeding. —C.Fred (talk) 11:58, 17 June 2024 (UTC)

  That paragraph was initially in the Super 8 section when there were no footnotes under the table, later the paragraph was moved to Format section. Later, the paragraph was copied back into the Super 8 section. Vestrian24Bio (TALK) 12:05, 17 June 2024 (UTC)

Weekly summaries

We should add weekly summaries similar to the 2019 Cricket World Cup. Vestrian24Bio (TALK) 16:57, 19 June 2024 (UTC)

Summaries sections are so long, Should we create dedicated articles for the Summaries of Group stage and Super 8 ?

WikiEditPS (TALK) 08:38, 24 June 2024 (UTC)

With the Summaries this article has a quality prediction of 92.6% – B class, without them it drops to 64%.

Also, before the summaries this article had a prediction of 35% – C class, it was promoted to B class only after the summaries were added.

See Wikipedia:Content assessment for more info. Vestrian24Bio (TALK) 08:46, 24 June 2024 (UTC)

I'm trying to get this article to FA class so it will be a precedent article for other ICC events. Vestrian24Bio (TALK) 08:46, 24 June 2024 (UTC)

Currently none of the articles about major ICC events are FA; although we have a GA (2019 Cricket World Cup) which can be used as a precedent for now.

@WikiEditPS take a look at 2019 Cricket World Cup and also Talk:2019 Cricket World Cup/GA1. Vestrian24Bio (TALK) 08:51, 24 June 2024 (UTC)

For making this article FA class we should organize each and every information of the tournament in correct manner. WikiEditPS (TALK) 08:57, 24 June 2024 (UTC)

So we should provide every match's full information including top performed batters and bowlers and notes on main article of tournament for more quality content that are now providing in dedicated articles of each Group. WikiEditPS (TALK) 08:52, 24 June 2024 (UTC)

Maybe read Wikipedia:Featured article criteria first. Also, Wikipedia:Summary style. Vestrian24Bio (TALK) 09:09, 24 June 2024 (UTC)

Semi-protected edit request on 24 June 2024

After watching the India vs Australia match, I suggest you update the scores. India made 205/5 and Australia made 181/7. As a result, India qualifies for the Semi-Final and will play England.

Also, please add a footnote about the following: Afghanistan must beat Bangladesh to qualify for the semi-finals Titannnnicfff (talk) 19:00, 24 June 2024 (UTC)

We already have that score listed. As for a footnote that is relevant a few more hours only, it's not needed, as the situation will resolve itself by tomorrow. Joseph2302 (talk) 20:33, 24 June 2024 (UTC)

Summary section headers

@Kumarpramit Even though the summary sections are within the stages they should be named as "Group stage summary" and "Super 8 summary" because, otherwise both section will have the same title, and would result in both of them having the same anchor; see more at MOS:HEADING. Joseph2302 also pointed this out at this revision and this revision. Vestrian24Bio (TALK) 01:51, 26 June 2024 (UTC)

@Vestrian24Bio: I'll be reviewing this one. VK wiki100 04:44, 1 September 2024 (UTC)

GA review (see here for what the criteria are, and here for what they are not)

1. It is reasonably well written.

   a (prose, spelling, and grammar): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):

   The lead can be extended to include a brief summary of how teams qualified through group stage and super8. Additionally, there is no need for references in this section, as they are already provided in the sections below.

• Grammatical mistakes in the first paragraph itself. "It was co-hosted by the West Indies and the United States from 1 to 29 June 2024; the tournament being hosted by the West Indies for the second time, while this was also the first major ICC tournament to feature matches played in the United States." Why are "being" and "while" used here? It should be changed to "It was co-hosted by the West Indies and the United States from 1 to 29 June 2024; the tournament was hosted by the West Indies for the second time, and it was also the first major ICC tournament to feature matches played in the United States."

• In the second paragraph: remove "field" as it is not necessary. Replace "best placed two teams" by "two highest-ranked teams" and it would be appropriate to replace the word "by" by "through" as the qualifiers are a tournament and not just a match.

• Add commas: "The last tournament, held in 2022 in Australia, was contested by 16 teams."

• Schedule: Turn this paragraph into past tense like "...tournament would be played.." and "..teams would play…" to "teams played". In the last line change "will" to "would" and it'll be better if it comes before the "teams played 55 matches" line.

• Prize money: same tense problem here. It should be in the past tense.

• Qualification: "two hosts" could simply be "hosts" and add commas. The region wise list of teams with their ranking in parentheses is redundant as there are only two teams which qualified because of rankings and their regions are already mentioned in above paragraph. It’ll be better to remove it. Only keep the table below.

• Venue: add venue of final also in the prose in the third paragraph.

• Warmup matches: it should be "most of the teams"

• Group stage: No need to hide the summary. I'd suggest dividing it by groups rather than by weeks. I didn't read the summary as of now. I’ll read after you finish changing it.
• Super 8: change first line to "The top two teams from each group in the group stage advanced to the Super 8 stage, where they were divided into two groups of four teams each." it'll be better. Divide summary by groups and unhide it.

• The prose can be improved in various ways, but for the standard of GA, it will be good if you comply with the above-mentioned issues. VK wiki100 11:53, 2 September 2024 (UTC)

I have made the changes except for the summaries which I have unhid now. One question: Should the group-wise summary be placed along with points table & fixtures or should it be kept in a separate section...? Vestrian24Bio (TALK) 15:39, 2 September 2024 (UTC)

@Vkwiki100?? Vestrian24Bio (TALK) 03:49, 16 September 2024 (UTC)
