The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was no consensus. Without viewing the source of this material, it probably is not a copyvio - my guess is some of the material in the original list has been removed before being included here, because some of the entries have no inclusion rationales which strikes me as odd for a published source.

Keep - The Modern Library lists of books are also copywritten, yet included in wikipedia. I also very much like the idea of having some of the less stellar "achievements" of athletes as well. Too many read like secular hagiographies as it is. Badbilltucker 15:53, 8 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Send to the copyvio folks Someone over there should be in charge of making consistent choices about whether lists from published sources are copyrighted (not copywritten). If it's not a copyvio, I see no harm in keeping it. Carlossuarez46 21:35, 9 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Keep if someone will improve it I agree with Badbilltucker's post; that said, it could still use some work. --Billfred 02:36, 16 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
