Overall:
Vestrian24Bio A QPQ is not needed. I see the hook in the lead, but that is unreferenced. It might be cited somewhere in the article, but I can't find it. SL93 (talk) 01:34, 2 April 2025 (UTC)

into Men's T20 World Cup their respective main articles. Sophisticatedevening(talk) 15:50, 9 September 2025 (UTC)
I propose merging or even redirecting 2024 Men's T20 World Cup group stage, 2024 Men's T20 World Cup Super 8 stage, and 2024 Men's T20 World Cup knockout stage into 2024 Men's T20 World Cup. The three articles mentioned are all WP:REDUNDANTFORKs of the main article; there is very little information found in any of them that isn't in 2024 Men's T20 World Cup. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 15:24, 29 June 2025 (UTC)
- Support redirect: The article is detailed enough without needing more information added, in fact it goes into too much detail.. Rollinginhisgrave (talk | contributions) 15:34, 29 June 2025 (UTC)

- Support all merge but redirect 2024 Men's T20 World Cup group stage It would be easier to find everything about the World Cup in one article. I don't think the average reader would actually search for the other articles but try to find it in the article. Oppose merging 2024 Men's T20 World Cup group stage as content from there already exists on that page and can be redirected. Servite et contribuere (talk) 16:57, 30 June 2025 (UTC)
- Note I have changed to be more specific and support only redirecting one per what I added. You can find it in the difference of edits. Servite et contribuere (talk) 04:51, 1 July 2025 (UTC)
- Oppose merge or redirect: group stage and Super 8 stage articles has informations that are not present on this page and adding them all here would
bloatthis page. Vestrian24Bio 11:36, 5 July 2025 (UTC)- Vestrian24Bio, can you please explain your definition of "bloat", perhaps with reference to WP:TOOBIG, the relevant Wikipedia guideline? I don't really understand what information you think the sub-articles contain which will double the size of this article, currently 4,000 words. If you like, I can draw up a sandbox of what the merged article would look like, and then you can explain to me how it is "bloated"? ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 15:34, 5 July 2025 (UTC)
- @AirshipJungleman29: "bloat" might not be the right way to describe it, but I believe it effects the the article quality. I have worked up a draft at User:Vestrian24Bio/2024 Men's T20 World Cup on how the post-merge article would look... What do you think think, would it still qualify as GA.? If so, I'll go right ahead and perform the merge; Thanks! Vestrian24Bio 03:03, 20 August 2025 (UTC)

- Counter proposal: Merging all knockout stage articles back into their main article.
- 2024 Men's T20 World Cup knockout stage
- 2024 Women's T20 World Cup knockout stage
- 2023 Cricket World Cup knockout stage
- 2019 Cricket World Cup knockout stage
- 2015 Cricket World Cup knockout stage
- 2011 Cricket World Cup knockout stage
Vestrian24Bio 11:36, 5 July 2025 (UTC)
- Support all merges per @AirshipJungleman29's reasoning. I also don't believe that the main article fits the criteria for a WP:SPLIT. This policy lays out three occasions on which an article should be split: WP:SIZE, post-template expansion size, and WP:CONSPLIT. This article doesn't fit the second reason, nor does it fit the third reason - leaving just WP:SIZE as a valid reason for a split. The article's total word count is roughly 7,500 (without the infobox and table of contents), which falls short of the classification "may need to be trimmed or divided". Furthermore, considering the readable prose size (WP:RPS), word count falls to around 6,200. Clearly, a split is not justified. --WellThisIsTheReaper Grim 23:58, 6 July 2025 (UTC)
