List of North American football nicknames (2nd nomination)
Centralized repository for team nicknames, which would be better off in the articles for each team. Plus, has American football POV even as it claims to serve Canadian football (there are no references to Canadian football in the article at time of nomination). kelvSYC 06:40, 28 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep for reasons given in the first AfD. Notably, List of hockey nicknames and List of U.S. Presidential nicknames set a precedent for this article. The best way to fix the nominator's POV concerns is to add Canadian football team nicknames to this article. Vslashg 06:52, 28 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep per precedent as pointed out by Vslashg. Ruby 06:57, 28 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete as listcruft. Nicknames belong in the main article; lists of them are not encyclopedic and the precedent of other listcruft does not make this any better. Eusebeus 15:18, 28 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep and expand as per Vslashg Jcuk 16:28, 28 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete as unencylcopedic list. User:Zoe|(talk) 00:34, 29 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep No, it's an almanac style list, and almanac style articles are explicitly allowed. CalJW 03:56, 29 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep per precedents listed and per CalJW. Youngamerican 04:31, 29 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Speedy Keep. For the same reasons I gave in the last AfD that closed ten days ago as keep. I see no new arguments here that justify a renom at this early date. Beides divisiveness, what is gained by continually nominating the same articles? -- JJay 14:44, 29 January 2006 (UTC)
