Wikipedia:WikiProject National Football League/Missing NFL Articles

More than a few missing NFL articles
This was archived, but I'm bringing it back for now Since Hey man im josh asked to see a list of NFL players needing articles by games played, I'll be going through and listing here each NFL player with more than 10 games without an article (italics=20+;bold=30+;bold-italics=40+) - Through "Gus Fetz":

Cautionary note: Some articles are "missing" for a good reason, i.e., they don't meet Wikipedia's notability standard at WP:GNG. Prior to creating articles on any of these players, make sure that you have done your due diligence and confirmed that there is WP:SIGCOV about them. Also, be aware that each new biographical article must have at least one example of SIGCOV included in the article. See WP:SPORTBASIC #4 ("Sports biographies must include at least one reference to a source providing significant coverage of the subject, excluding database sources.").

 * WikiProject National Football League/Articles to create exists for articles yet to be created.-- Yankees10 00:52, 26 February 2023 (UTC)
 * I know, but Josh requested a list for ones with the most games – the "Articles to create" list includes people with low numbers of games – it also misses some players with large amounts of games. BeanieFan11 (talk) 00:55, 26 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Makes sense. I missed your comment above.-- Yankees10 00:58, 26 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Thank you for this @BeanieFan11! WikiProject National Football League/Articles to create is very useful, but it doesn't tell us a lot beyond that a player's article is needed (unless you go the associated PFR links). I wanted to help out creating some articles but I also wanted to focus on ones that were most likely to survive if sent to AfD. While participation is not an indicator of notability it can be a useful place to start when trying to pick articles to create. Hey man im josh (talk) 14:20, 27 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Roger Anderson is interesting to me, as he transitioned from being a tackle in his rookie year to being a defensive tackle for his final 3 years. I'm going to work on his article. Hey man im josh (talk) 14:31, 27 February 2023 (UTC)
 * I could find a few sources for you if you'd like (through Newspapers.com, or do you have that already?). Thanks for being willing to help! BeanieFan11 (talk) 14:59, 27 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Thank you for the offer @BeanieFan11, but I think I'll have enough in this case. Anderson is very easily notable given what I'm finding, including his participating in the CFL, induction into his college's HoF, and All-American status. I just need to put the work in =) Hey man im josh (talk) 15:13, 27 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Would it make sense to reformat the players section of WikiProject National Football League/Articles to create to include this info? We could do columns with game played, PFR link, notes for claims to notability, etc. Hey man im josh (talk) 23:20, 27 February 2023 (UTC)
 * We could, but I feel that would just take way too much work. BeanieFan11 (talk) 23:23, 27 February 2023 (UTC)


 * I'll take Cedrick Brown. BeanieFan11 (talk) 23:21, 27 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Quinton Ballard next. BeanieFan11 (talk) 16:20, 28 February 2023 (UTC)


 * Speed Braney already exists on Wikipedia as Joe Braney, needs some more sources though. This messageboard states he was an All-American offensive lineman at Syracuse but I haven't yet found a contemporary that backs that part up. Alvaldi (talk) 18:11, 20 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Commenting so this won't be archived. BeanieFan11 (talk) 20:40, 14 April 2023 (UTC)

 * Another time. BeanieFan11 (talk) 02:27, 3 June 2023 (UTC)
 * Again. BeanieFan11 (talk) 02:47, 8 September 2023 (UTC)

 * Thanks! BeanieFan11 (talk) 02:42, 10 September 2023 (UTC)


 * I'd like to suggest adding Bob Davis (American football, born 1914). They played in 49 games between 1938 and 1946 as a two-way player. They also led the league in punt return yards in 1944. PFR link here. Hey man im josh (talk) 17:34, 13 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Wow, I'm... really surprised that a player with such accomplishments as Davis is missing an article. If no one else will, I'll try taking on his biography later this month or maybe next month. BeanieFan11 (talk) 17:47, 13 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Commenting before this gets archived. BeanieFan11 (talk) 01:43, 14 October 2023 (UTC)
 * Found one with 67 games that appears article-less: Guy Roberts. BeanieFan11 (talk) 02:17, 22 October 2023 (UTC)
 * Another comment to avoid archive. BeanieFan11 (talk) 20:40, 20 November 2023 (UTC)
 * One more - I still intend on finishing this list at some point... BeanieFan11 (talk) 16:50, 18 December 2023 (UTC)
