This is a category for manufacturers whose cars have Sirius Radio receivers as an option. At worst this is no more than an advert, at best its no more than a list. JW 22:23, 29 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as player categories are being simplified into only five: Category:West Ham United F.C. goalkeepers, Category:West Ham United F.C. defenders, Category:West Ham United F.C. midfielders, Category:West Ham United F.C. forwards and Category:West Ham United F.C. players that never played for the 1st team. This is as opposed to the originally conceived twenty or so categories. This is because this is now seen by this user, who created them originally, that they are overly complex and unneccessary. Any deeper positional information should clearly be found in player biogs. Apologies for this Newbie behaviour. ;-) Spyrides 02:31, 29 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Replaced by several more specific Category:American football players by position subcategories: Category:American football long snappers, Category:American football punt returners, and so on. "Special teams" is not a position, it's a class of positions. All individuals have been moved to the more accurate subcategories.--Mike Selinker 01:35, 29 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Good point, but to me that's more of a role than a position. For me, position is what you would find next to someone's name on a roster. Tasker's a wide receiver by position.--Mike Selinker 21:07, 2 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Counter-point: So is long snapper. My only concern is that we're going to neglect what made these guys prominent in the first place. No one remembers Tasker as a wide receiver, even if that was his official position. No one knows who Kendall Gammon is, except that he's one of the premier long snappers in the game. Special teams is "special" for a reason, and I just don't want people to forget that. On the other hand, it is a small amount of players, so I understand why there's a CfD. Ultimately, I have to take a keep position, and it's nothing against your position, but I just feel that it's a method of categorization that best fits the players it encompasses. I'll probably get out-voted here, but I need to voice my concern, if only to have it heard. Anthony 22:34, 2 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Two things. First, does anyone know what happened to the 15 or so players that were in there a month ago? Did you they all go into punt returners and long snappers? Second, is there something we could name the category so that it's restrictive enough to be useful, but also somewhat objective? ST Pro Bowl selections don't seem to be very representative (David Tyree and Larry Izzo this year), and players known mostly for ST play has obvious problems. ×Meegs 23:03, 2 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I moved them into their more specialized categories (most were long snappers), before really realizing that I was denuding the category. It would be pretty easy to put them back, since my contributions log has them all right next to each other. I think if we rename the category, we should have a very narrow restriction as to who gets in it, and then it will be easy to find people who go in it. Maybe we just make a separate category for the gunners and call it a day.--Mike Selinker 06:26, 3 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I've got no objection to making a gunners category. At the very least it will give the remaining "special teamers" some category to call their own. Thanks Meegs for bringing this to my attention... I'm lucky I'm able to think straight at this hour. I hereby change my vote to delete. Anthony 13:09, 4 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
