This is just a random collection of things that have happened, not a NPOV, encyclopedic article. The "Other scandals" is in violation of WP:BLPCRIME, by accusing people of things that they haven't been charged for, the "Rule Break" section is just a couple of minor, arbitrary incidents, "Incidents of physical assaults on players" section is about players and not really related to the IPL itself. Any encyclopedic content can be added to other IPL articles, but we don't need this article with tons of absolutely non-encyclopedic content. Joseph2302 (talk) 10:11, 24 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose How can you say that the assault and bullying controversies are individual and not related to IPL? The player's sequrity is IPL's responsibility amid IPL, It was happened during IPL. If you don't agree with sub-headings you can change it. main article already too lengthy and if we merged this stuff in it, it'll be more lengthy.Rock Stone Gold Castle (talk) 14:42, 25 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

A selective merge of a very small amount of encyclopedic content would be fine. Must of this article is WP:NPOV junk that should be deleted. WP:NPOV and WP:BLPCRIME override WP:ILIKEIT. Joseph2302 (talk) 20:16, 25 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Very selective merge to Indian Premier League. There's some information here that can be merged, but most of it is excessive and violates WP:NPOV. Rugbyfan22 (talk) 10:01, 25 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Oppose, Hi, If anyone feeling that something in this article breaking WP policy, then you should open a discussion here on talk page. We'll remove or alter it after reaching analysing. I think the intrested editors do not that someone is trying to delete or merge this article in IPL. You should paste notices at 'Wikiproject IPL, Cricket, IPL article about it. Let them know, many of them will discuss, vote here.Rock Stone Gold Castle (talk) 08:25, 2 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

It has been appropriately listed in Sports, Cricket, and India, and appears in the article alerts for WikiProject Cricket: Wikipedia:WikiProject Cricket/Article alerts. Hi, If anyone feeling that something in this article breaking WP policy, then you should open a discussion here on talk page. We'll remove or alter it after reaching analysing. is not how AFD works. The article has to demonstrate the need to exist, as per WP:GNG and WP:SPLIT, and the WP:BLPCRIME issues in this article are also unacceptable. Joseph2302 (talk) 21:09, 2 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Support Liz's suggestion of a very selective merge to Indian Premier League. This article has no good reason to exist. By shoving all the "controversies" over here, we give undue weight to smaller ones, and may keep larger ones from receiving proper coverage in the main article. Also relevant to this discussion may be the guidelines on point-of-view forking. Wracking ^💬 22:26, 6 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Support, Now I also think it should be de deleted or merged.Rock Stone Gold Castle (talk) 05:52, 7 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
