The list was not promoted 19:08, 18 March 2008.
Third time's a charm, eh? I've updated the list with all players who have played at least 100 games (consistent with 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7), which should fill in the gaps that people were concerned with at the last FAC.
- Support as nominator. Teemu08 (talk) 06:09, 17 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Oppose as not including all players who played for the teams as per all the other featured lists of NHL players. Inconsistent with standard set for NHL team player lists. -Djsasso (talk) 12:52, 17 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Oppose completely un-cited. - Milk's Favorite Cookie 14:03, 17 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Actually, it has several references. Resolute 14:40, 17 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Oppose Incomplete list. Needs to include all players. Resolute 14:40, 17 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- So why is hockey held to such a different standard than soccer? The reason why all of the other hockey player FLs are complete is that they're from franchises that are, at most, half as old as the Blackhawks. Teemu08 (talk) 21:38, 17 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Not talking for Resolute but in my opinion simply because the list is missing very important people whom, it is simply just rediculous to leave off if you restrict it to 100 games played. I believe those other pages should have all the other players as well. Perhaps you could join the current drive the hockey project is holding to make all the team player lists into featured lists and work with us on making sure all the teams in the league have the same standards for the lists. By limiting the list in this fashion you are leaving off people who are notable enough to have wikipedia articles, and thus if they are notible enough for an article, they are more than notible enough to be on a list. -Djsasso (talk) 21:44, 17 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- So then, would you agree that all those soccer lists be brought to FLRC? Teemu08 (talk) 21:53, 17 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Yup, if you wanted to bring them to FLRC then I would support them being defeatured there. Personally, I see no reason for not including the other players except being lazy. The players were all there on the page prior to you making your edits. In fact I had started fixing this page after your last FLC nom. I will try and finish it tonight if I have time and can find my copy of the media guide. -Djsasso (talk) 21:56, 17 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- I would as well, and will also add that setting a notability threshold of 100 games is arbitrary and POV. Resolute 21:58, 17 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Well, then, I'll go ahead and withdraw this and bring forth the onslaught of unhappy soccer fans! :) Teemu08 (talk) 22:16, 17 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Oppose as incomplete, and I would also support delisting any FL if they're not complete, too, not just the soccer ones. -- Matthew | talk | Contribs 01:38, 18 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

- Indeed, I am currently working on the List of Montreal Canadiens players. According to the Canadiens website, some 700 different players have played for the team. And that just includes the NHL portion, not the 8 years they were in the NHA. It's a tedious task, but it makes for a more complete list. Kaiser matias (talk) 02:56, 18 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
