This is a translated page from Lijst van FIF wedreldranlijsten on the Dutch language Wikipedia. It is, simply, a data dump of the top 3 ranked national teams by month in the FIFA rankings, plus the position of Belgium and Netherlands. The page is not appropriate for an encyclopedia; it is an indiscriminate dump of statistics and nothing else. FIFA World Rankings currently exists documenting the current rankings and monthly leaders, as well as other ranking-related records and prizes. This page's added-value - listing 2nd and 3rd for each month - does not seem worthy of an encyclopedia page.

Clearly, if kept, the page would need renaming but that can be left to deal with in the event of that outcome. Super Nintendo Chalmers (talk) 14:19, 3 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete : arbitrary at best. Perhaps the list at the end of the cumulative times teams have been 1st/2nd or 3rd could be incorporated into the FIFA World Rankings page. Matilda Maniac (talk) 18:41, 3 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - The main page FIFA World Rankings contains more than enough statistics. I also see no reason why Belgium and Holland deserve special status in this. Spiderone 10:58, 5 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
