Main opponents of A.C. Milan

Although I'm a big AC Milan fan, I see no point in having such an article. By the way, it does not even specify uses arbitrary inclusion criteria and it's completely unsourced poorly sourced. Luxic (talk) 20:53, 26 February 2011 (UTC)

Both the source (The "Panini" almanac) and the inclusion criteria (100+) are clearly cited. Users should work to expand wikipedia, not to destroy it (expecially on Saturday nights... ;-) )--Akrothiri (talk) 21:52, 26 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Comment – I've reworded the rationale. Oh, and just to let you know, sometimes deletion is way more constructive than expansion. On any day of the week. Luxic (talk) 14:20, 27 February 2011 (UTC)

 * Delete - AC Milan's main rivalry is probably their local one with Inter - which is covered in a seperate article, Derby della Madonnina. No need for this indiscriminate list. GiantSnowman 21:56, 26 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Merge or Rename Seems like there is a lot of good info but it needs a diffrent title. BUC (talk) 14:22, 27 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep and rename to A.C. Milan league record by opponent. Potentially useful article if expanded along the lines of Luton Town F.C. league record by opponent. At the moment the article suffers for the fact it picks out some teams (why those and not others?). Jmorrison230582 (talk) 04:46, 2 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.


 * Delete inherently subjective - rivalries are either fixed for a long time AC vs Inter, Rangers vs Celtic, Barcelona vs Real Madrid etc or are non-notable. Other than Inter, key rivalries can be recorded in a line at most in the AC Milan page. MLA (talk) 08:17, 5 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete Precendent that would be set if this were to be kept would lead to potetially thousands of articles of "Main opponents of X" for every single football team with an article on wikipedia. At best, merge some of the info into AC Milan if the info isn't already there. Delusion23 (talk) 00:35, 8 March 2011 (UTC)
