Non-Russian players in Russian Football Premier League 2007

WP:NOT an indiscriminate collection of information. Moreover, I'm curious how the author defines "non-Russian" and why were these particular players chosen. Conscious 13:36, 2 August 2007 (UTC)

 * Delete. indiscriminate collection of information. "Non-Russian" is broad and undefined: born outside of the Soviet Union? The Russian Federation? No Russian heritage?-Wafulz 13:47, 2 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete- per WP:NOT. Totally uncyclopedic list. -- Boricua  e  ddie  14:25, 2 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete for reasons listed above.Zuxtron 15:03, 2 August 2007 (UTC) — Zuxtron (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
 * Delete - per nom. Contains many Russian players (who are only "non-Russian" as they are from semi-autonomous republics within the Russian Federation). Maybe purge of said players and replace with a category - Non-Russian footballers playing in Russia? GiantSnowman 16:33, 2 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep Hardly "indiscriminate information" as the list has extremely clear inclusion parameters (profession, workplace, and citizenship) to which it largely holds. I see only one questionable entry (the inclusion of a player from Dagestan); all the others are for people from countries outside of Russia. cab 01:36, 3 August 2007 (UTC)
 * As far as I'm aware, Chuvashia, North Ossettia, Tatarstan and Abkhazia aren't countries outside of Russia..... ChrisTheDude 07:01, 3 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Abkhazia is related to Georgia, but the rest are Republics of Russia. Conscious 08:10, 3 August 2007 (UTC)
 * ....meaning that players from those areas are officially Russian, is that right? ChrisTheDude 08:14, 3 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Yes, sure, they are Russian citizens. I think the author included these players because they think the players are not ethnic Russians (which is just irrelevant in my opinion and needs to be sourced anyway). Conscious 08:22, 3 August 2007 (UTC)
