to lack of sourcing, particularly for players from long ago. List should be restricted to
International players which can then easier be expanded with additional info (international goals, games etc) per Germany one. As far as a list of Brazilian player being kept over category simply because it has dates, you can search category Brazil football player and category xxxx births simultaneously. ditto comments for other 2 candidates--
549:- has the nom checked that all in the list are also in the category, and has the nom noticed that many of those in the category are in subcategories and thus not visible at the top level? Lists and categories are complementary (neither is ever complete) - the list could be upgraded to give position, no of games played, goals scored etc.
321:
No valid reason for deletion has been specified. It is quite permissible to have a category and a list, and we don't delete one because we have the other. The list in this case t has the advantage of dates, which helps for browsing and identification. If other such lists were deleted, they should be
626:
has just become a featured list, such a list is justifiable. Simply a list of
Brazilian footballers without restricting criteria is likely to be unmanageably huge and better handled by category - all but impossible to supply number of games and goals for all those players for all they've played due
443:- what additional information? - the Brazilian list has DOB, the Danish has a few (and only a very few) playing positions, and the Taiwanese list has nothing other than the Chinese language names - in my eyes this is not really "information additional to that in a category".
490:- well, if you want to do something you could make a nice table with DOBs, position, clubs played for etc which would help develop the encyclopaedia rather more than spending a lot of effort trying to get some innocuous pages deleted.
515:. All the notable Brazilian footballers are in the category (more than 2,000 footballers). Category it's easier to be updated than a list. This is not even a list of players that joined the national squad. --
646:
I see this list just as another category just with year of birth attached. This is little difference other than the fact the category is by far more complete. So I vote to delete this list and the others.
405:
Over a hundred or more years, there must have been tens of thousands of
Brazilian professional footballers. Even a list of Brazlian INTERNATIONAL footballers would presumably be well into 4 figures. -
601:
I think the problem is that the list is currently inferior to the category and making it superior by adding tables etc seems unmanageable when there would need to be over 10,000 entries in the list.

426:- discriminate, organised and contains information additional to that in a category. Significantly more information could be added but meanwhile the red links are helpful.
215:
210:
85:
80:
341:- my reason is that ALL the information in the lists of players already exists in the categories; in fact, the categories actually contain more players than the lists.
219:
89:
358:. I'd rather see it in a sortable table, but that can be done with editing. DGG is right. The category does not contain the years which could help with searching. -
