List: Oldest Pitchers to Start a Postseason Game

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Not quite as bad as players with 22 goals and 17 assists in one month but this seems a rather arbitrary and trivial selection criterion. Given that we already have lists of oldest Major League Baseball players, oldest living Major League Baseball players and Oldest Baseball Hall of Fame members, I feel this one is redundant. &mdash; RHaworth (Talk | contribs) 00:02, 6 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Merge to List of oldest Major League Baseball players... similar to the way List of MLB franchise post-season droughts is structured, lots of related sub-lists can be on one page, and it actually makes for a pretty useful page. These sorts of lists aren't trivial intersections for baseball fans... but they are not so useful when scattered all over on individual articles. --Rividian (talk) 01:43, 6 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Merge I started the article and I'm all for merging it into another article, if the one listed above suits others, I'm good with that. As for why I removed the box before, the page it linked to said...

"If you do not agree that the article should be deleted without discussion you can do the following things:

Remove the dated prod tag from the article, noting this in the edit summary. Editors should explain why they disagree with the proposed deletion either in the edit summary, or on the article's talk page."

So that's what I was attempting to do and notified you as such per a later step on that same page.
 * Comment - I have moved this to Oldest Pitchers to Start a Postseason Game. Keep or not, this page's name shouldn't start with "List:". --UsaSatsui (talk) 06:30, 7 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete, listcruft. Stifle (talk) 15:38, 7 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete Interesting, though... but that's not a reason. Try another wiki?--Paul McDonald (talk) 15:54, 7 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Merge to the oldest MLB players article listed above. It is interesting and worthwhile information to have, and being an accepted "oldest" list already exists, why should this not be an addition to it? Coastalsteve984 (talk) 16:17, 7 October 2008 (UTC)
