Nigerian Players Abroad

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Unmaintainable list, which already exists as a category. Simply not needed. Was prodded, but removed by article creator without rationale. пﮟოьεԻ  5  7  10:52, 11 August 2008 (UTC)

 * Delete as per many other Fooian Players Abroad like it before. Apart from the thoroughly legitimate reasons given above, it does not specify what they play, and the word abroad is subjective: a Nigerian player, of any sport, in Nigeria is abroad as far as I am concerned.

 * Should we likewise be considering Iraqi football players abroad, List of Salvadoran football players playing abroad, List of Scottish football players playing abroad and Thai footballers abroad? Kevin McE (talk) 12:19, 11 August 2008 (UTC)


 * Delete and agree with Kevin McE. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Wikiwikikid (talk • contribs) 15:50, 11 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Weak keep with a renaming for clarity 'List of Nigerian football players currently playing in foriegn leagues' or similar. It can easily be, and in fact is, sourced. -- neon white talk 18:44, 11 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete, 200 lists of footballers from x country playing abroad is a little over the top, so delete and let it live on as a category. Punkmorten (talk) 21:25, 11 August 2008 (UTC)
