List of Australian Open Final appearances

 * Nominator(s): 03  md  01:28, 6 January 2010 (UTC)

I am nominating this for featured list because it has gone through peer review and I feel the list is ready to become featured. I am not sure whether a table for doubles players is needed. 03 md  01:28, 6 January 2010 (UTC)

Oppose per criteria 3a and 3b. For 3a, you would need the doubles. Also, given that we have complete lists of finalists from 1905 and 1922 for men and women respectively, I don't understand why this only goes as far back as the start of the slam era. Surely we should be consistent? But my main issue is 3b. I just don't see the need for this list. I don't see why it couldn't reasonably be incorporated into List of Australian Open champions (or vice versa, given the superior quality of this list in terms of referencing and prose).

 * Oppose and Support Merge I also fail to see how this must be a separate article from List of Australian Open champions and its five subarticles. That lisst is not terribly long so this table should be trimmed and merged there. Reywas92 Talk 19:41, 6 January 2010 (UTC)


 * Oppose The 3b criterion was created to avoid lists like this. It is reasonable to merge this list to the main list.-- Cheetah  (talk)  08:18, 8 January 2010 (UTC)
