The result was   delete. As HTD comments that "this seems to be (rightfully) swinging on the "delete" side", I am assuming that negates the 'keep' that user said before. As such, I find the consensus is to delete. I am happy to restore the article as a contested PROD upon request  Phantom Steve / talk &#124; contribs \ 01:13, 1 June 2012 (UTC)

List of Talk 'N Text Tropang Texters Imports

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  Stats )

Nothing but a list of people who have played import for a Philippine sports team. No context establishing any notability, no sources. Delete. J I P &#124; Talk 11:39, 17 May 2012 (UTC)

 * Keep. Don't we have similar lists for sports teams playing elsewhere? The main article of this one, and where this list should be merged with was deleted on a prod. I suggest that be revived (preferably titled as "Talk 'N Text Tropang Texters all-time roster"), and I'll do the sourcing. The Talk 'N Text Tropang Texters are not just a "Philippine sports team", they are champions of three of the last five tournaments of the Philippine Basketball Association, the country's most popular sports league. It's like deleting Los Angeles Lakers all-time roster. – H T  D  15:44, 17 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep but convert to an all-time roster article as Howard the Duck suggests, assuming reliable sources exist (there are no references listed in the current article). Rikster2 (talk) 05:06, 23 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete No basis for why a list of a basketball team's import players is notable enough for a stand-alone article, even a championship team; see WP:LISTN, WP:SALAT. The same list is already here, which is probably a better place for it. —Ben Kovitz (talk) 00:57, 24 May 2012 (UTC)


 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

 * Delete - Doesn't expand in any way upon Talk 'N Text Tropang Texters. The notability of the team is irrelevant if a sub-article is a simple reiteration of information already contained on its main page. WP:WHENSPLIT was not taken into account when this article was created. ŞůṜīΣĻ ¹98¹ Speak 21:09, 24 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Since this seems to be (rightfully) swinging on the "delete" side, perhaps the mother article that was deleted via prod ought to be revived. I dunno how it looked like but it could be salvageable, then this list can be merged there an be expanded from there. – H T  D  17:52, 25 May 2012 (UTC)
 * The PROD rationale was "Uncited, unecessary list of uncertain things or persons". I'm not prejudiced against recreation but that seems a clear case where sources should be found prior to publication in mainspace. ŞůṜīΣĻ ¹98¹ Speak 21:34, 25 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Probably can't do that when it's deleted... – H T  D  02:52, 26 May 2012 (UTC)
