Career statistics John Terry

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  Stats )

I PRODded this yesterday; the PROD was subsequently removed and article moved. This is a massive violation of WP:NOTSTATS and has no place here. GiantSnowman 12:22, 16 May 2012 (UTC)

 * Delete per nom, prod, and prod endorsment. The current article location is also just strange, the old one at least make some sense. KTC (talk) 13:24, 16 May 2012 (UTC)

 * Delete per nominator, per WP:NOTSTATS and per WP:SYN. -- Brown HairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 22:32, 16 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete per WP:NOTSTATS. Relevant playing stats are already included in the John Terry article. --sparkl!sm hey! 11:10, 17 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete - we've almost always deleted such articles; to keep this one would make a bad precedent. Bearian (talk) 17:12, 17 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Comment - As the article was nominated for deletion because of WP:NOTSTATS, I have added some explanations for the page and also added to the Category:Association football in England lists. Can anyone please check the page and tell me whether the page needs any more improvements? ZZ47 (talk) 04:10, 18 May 2012 (UTC)
 * The effect of your edits is simply to increase the overlap with the existing biographical article John Terry. However, it remains primarily a collection of statistics. -- Brown HairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 00:55, 22 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete. I entirely agree with the spirit of WP:NOTSTATS as an encyclopaedia should only use statistics in the same way as images: i.e., for illustration. I've seen a number of these statistical pieces around the site as a whole and I can see no place for them. Should definitely be removed. --Brian (talk) 18:19, 22 May 2012 (UTC)
