List of Cuban Athletes

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

A category would be much, much better. Martijn Hoekstra (talk) 20:14, 29 November 2007 (UTC)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Puerto_Rican_athletes. Any help would be appreciated. CubanoDios (talk) 20:18, 29 November 2007 (UTC)
 * keepAlright, all i'm doing is making an article similiar to this for cuban athletes
 * Comment there is a Category:Cuban athletes. (see WP:CAT) Martijn Hoekstra (talk) 20:39, 29 November 2007 (UTC)
 * It looks really really empty, I guess I have my work cut out for me. CubanoDios (talk) 20:45, 29 November 2007 (UTC)


 * Keep once populated it can contain articles that can't be contained with a category (IE - red links). Lugnuts (talk) 20:51, 29 November 2007 (UTC)


 * Keep It does seem to duplicate much that is in Category:Cuban athletes, but as Lugnuts noted, it could be useful for athletes without articles. Even more to the point, perhaps, is the editor's information that Puerto Rica has such a page. I checked a few others, completely randomly: Angola, Jamaica, Korea. Each had its own "List of Athletes". Seems standard.  Tim Ross ·talk  12:56, 3 December 2007 (UTC)
 * My apologies. Sloppy work on my part. I looked up "Category:Angolan athletes", etc. rather than "List of Angolan Athletes", etc. The comparable lists don't exist. Tim Ross ·talk  01:03, 4 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment - article of this kind are useful if they have red links. At present this has just one.  Unless the list is populated with more red links before AFD closure, it should be deleted.  Peterkingiron 23:13, 3 December 2007 (UTC)
