The result of the debate was delete G1, non-admin closure by Lenticel  ( talk ) 03:26, 18 May 2008 (UTC) Name seems perfectly reasonable for running-backs born during the 1990s. Unfortunately, this unproposed stub is for running-backs who played during the 1990s, which is not how gridiron stubs are split, for the good reason of massive overlap with careers and decades. Unnecessary stub type, unintuitive name, and counter to standard stub hierarchy. Delete (and the sooner the better, to reduce confusion with those born in the decade). Grutness...wha?  04:10, 16 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Deleted as patent idiocy. Alai (talk) 13:54, 16 May 2008 (UTC)
 * It won't be long till we need one for 1990s births. Might even get a few articles this year for some college freshmen at the Division I schools.  Might have been better to be proactive and made it an upmerged template for running backs born in the 1990s. Caerwine Caer’s whines  17:36, 16 May 2008 (UTC)
 * I have no objection to you (or anyone else) doing so. Think of this as cleansing the edit history, so we can have a clean start.  Alai (talk) 20:54, 16 May 2008 (UTC)
