List of Algerian international footballers born outside Algeria

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Please refer to the following policies:

WP:LISTCRUFT - #1, #2, #3, #7, #12 (and probably a couple of the others too)

WP:GNG - If a topic has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject, it is presumed to be suitable for a stand-alone list

WP:LISTN - One accepted reason why a list topic is considered notable is if it has been discussed as a group or set by independent reliable sources, per the above guidelines; notable list topics are appropriate for a stand-alone list.

I am fully aware that similar lists exist for Australia, England, Wales etc. but these do appear to have just enough to pass GNG, at least according to previous AfDs. Spiderone 12:57, 26 November 2016 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Keep, as it is a notable subject. There are many articles written about Algeria players born outside Algeria, particularly those born in France. A clear majority of the Algeria squad for the 2014 World Cup were born in France., , , . . Jmorrison230582 (talk) 10:25, 29 November 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep. The only possible reason for treating this differently from the other articles listed by the nominator is that this one is not about an Anglophone national team. This is an encyclopedia written in English about the whole world, not just the Anglophone world. 86.17.222.157 (talk) 21:56, 1 December 2016 (UTC)
