Fails criteria #6. I'm the main contributor of this page, so no need to leave myself a talk page message informing myself of the discussion I opened. :) iMatthew talk at 02:09, 3 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Has WP:HOCKEY been notified? Obviously, I will have to close this FLRC, so I will mostly stay out of this FLRC. Dabomb87 (talk) 03:16, 3 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Done (it originally slipped my mind), and yes you will. :) iMatthew talk at 03:20, 3 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Oppose I don't think it fails criteria 6 because it does not change "day to day" as the criteria says it shouldn't. Yes it does change once in awhile but Captains and Assistants are relatively stable throughout the year. It does not change on a daily basis far from it, might change at the worst once or twice a month and isn't a source of edit wars which is the other part of criteria 6. PS. You might also want to notify GoodDay as his 479 contributions to the article far surpass your 29 so you are by far not the main contributor (or atleast not the only).-DJSasso (talk) 03:27, 3 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Oppose as well. You are focusing too much on the letter of the law, so to speak, rather than the spirit of it. At the beginning of the season, there will be a short burst of changes, absolutely. These are being noted and updated as they happen, so the article is remaining accurate (the spirit of criteria 6). After this short period, the article remains reasonably stable. This will always be a dynamic list, but so far as I am aware, FLC does not exclude dynamic lists at this time. Resolute 05:06, 3 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Oppose "Stability. It is not the subject of ongoing edit wars and its content does not change significantly from day to day, except in response to the featured list process." Edit wars, no? It isn't even edited that much daily, period. Grsz11 05:23, 3 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Oppose. It doesn't fail citeria 6 as the list is stable enough, actually far more stable than many governments. I don't think it should be deleted.--Jeanne Boleyn (talk) 05:33, 3 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Oppose It would be a perplexing triumph of form over substance to delist the page every year around this time only to relist it a few months later (when the burst of edits is sufficiently in the past). -Rrius (talk) 06:09, 3 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Oppose Though I'm not surprised by the nomination, particulary when a captain or alternate captain is injured & out of a lineup (even for just 1-game), IPs tend to guickly add in the 'temporary' replacements. GoodDay (talk) 16:34, 3 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Note This FLRC has been closed. I encourage editors to be vigilant in keeping the list current. Dabomb87 (talk) 18:49, 3 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
