• Delete per above. Can be contained in template anyway. GiantSnowman (talk) 23:56, 24 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• To the nominator, just because an article is in need of some repair is not a criteria for deletion. Try and add to it, improve it, create an encyclopedia. To Snowman, I don't think it could be contained in a template, the consensus at WT:WPF#Navboxes and succession boxes was that these templates would be hard to source, and excessively large on articles. I think the best thing to do would be to merge the content into List of Liverpool F.C. players as team captains should be inherently notable. I think it is ok as a stand-alone article though and do not think that it should be deleted. Woodym555 (talk) 20:07, 25 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • I agree that the nominator's reasoning wasn't overly sound, but the information is already included at Liverpool F.C. statistics, and so there is no need to merge this page anywhere else, leaving deletion as the only rational course of action. – PeeJay 13:28, 26 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
    • You could remove it from the statistics article, which would be another rational course of action. On its own it can be expanded to include other information. Or it could be deleted from both and included in the players article. Why leave it stranded amongst lots of other tables? We could use WP:SUMMARY on the statistics page. As I say, there are several different courses of action that could take place. In any case, each option needs some sort of sourcing. For interest, I found it in a rather lacklustre state and contacted the Liverpool F.C. task force at the time. Woodym555 (talk) 16:09, 26 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

• Redirect to Liverpool F.C. statistics. Since the information is deemed notable enough to be included as a complete section of the article, providing a redirect would assist the readers of wikipedia in finding the infromation. And redirects are cheap. -- Whpq (talk) 14:44, 29 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
