*'''Comment'''. Quite a few hits in ''The Recorder (Eastern Counties Times)'' (via BNA) if someone has time to investigate further... William Charles "Bill" Gunary was a farmer. He played club cricket for Dagenham and later Ilford, where he was captain from 1929–1932. All very local and routine though, so unlikely to be enough to warrant keeping an article about him. It should also be noted that he was a bowler, so the article's current focus on his batting is [[WP:UNDUE|undue]] (a consequence of the dubious practice of [[WP:SYNTH|synthesising]] articles from database entries and statistics). <sub>[[User:Wjemather|<span style="color:#0D5218">wjemather</span>]]</sub><sup>[[User talk:Wjemather|<span style="color:#520D0D">please leave a message...</span>]]</sup> 09:55, 16 May 2023 (UTC) |

Non-notable player; only played in one game and scored no points while doing so. No significant coverage in article, and none could be found. BilledMammal (talk) 08:18, 16 May 2023 (UTC)
- Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Sportspeople and Cricket. BilledMammal (talk) 08:18, 16 May 2023 (UTC)
- Comment - "Scored no points" isn't a logical argument, but sure. That would be the equivalent of "scored no goals". I'd be surprised if we can't find anything - not the most common name out there. Bobo. 08:38, 16 May 2023 (UTC)
- Delete: Alas, by the iron hand of 'SIGCOV', we consign this gallant cricketer to oblivion. Despite the duck, each wicket tells a tale, enriching our tapestry of knowledge. But, policy, unflinching, trims our canvas of obscurity, and in its zealous pruning, Wikipedia's mission, to capture all human understanding, is subtly, yet fundamentally, compromised.
