2018 Winter Olympics United States women's ice hockey team roster

WP:NOTSTATS Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information. An article with this title is never going to be anything more than a list of names (and heights and weights and dates of birth - maybe someone will add hair colour). Perhaps if the team wins the tournament their names might end up being listed at Ice hockey at the 2018 Winter Olympics – Women's tournament, but that can be done at the time without needing all the detail from here.

 * Delete: Apparently this page was created by an infrequent editor who was not aware of the long standing consensus on the Olympics articles. See Category:2018 Winter Olympics ice hockey team roster templates and the like. This table is suppose to be on a template called Template:2018 Winter Olympics United States women's ice hockey team roster that is transcluded on both Ice hockey at the 2018 Winter Olympics – Women's team rosters and United States at the 2018 Winter Olympics. In fact, the page creator later did try to put it directly on the former article. Zzyzx11 (talk) 08:33, 24 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete for same reasons as User:Zzyzx11. Flibirigit (talk) 09:13, 24 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete Yeah its just a duplicate of a template that we typically use. No reason to keep. -DJSasso (talk) 15:24, 24 January 2018 (UTC)
 * - can you provide a link to the template? Hmlarson (talk) 19:21, 25 January 2018 (UTC)
 * It is in the comment two above mine. Template:2018 Winter Olympics United States women's ice hockey team roster. -DJSasso (talk) 19:22, 25 January 2018 (UTC)


 * Delete - It would be good to leave a message on the main editor's  talk page letting them know there is already a template. An AfD would likely not be necessary, and looks like you skipped the PROD step for some reason. Hmlarson (talk) 20:08, 25 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete The conventional way is to have the template (as noted above), and an overall page for team rosters: Ice hockey at the 2018 Winter Olympics – Women's team rosters. This is just duplicating that. Kaiser matias (talk) 03:07, 26 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete Content already exists as a template, as well it should. Is there a speedy criterion for this? Smartyllama (talk) 14:26, 30 January 2018 (UTC)
