Unsourced original research. These list was made by going through a list of games played/managed and picking out the people without any WS appearances. There is no notability to the topic. – Muboshgu (talk) 22:01, 20 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete While interesting it is really an OR project, as the nominator said. An encyclopedia is for the facts, this kind of thing is for fan blogs, etc. Borock (talk) 22:26, 20 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Legitimate list, whose accuracy is not reasonably subject to dispute, of general public interest. Newyorkbrad (talk) 04:14, 25 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - Per nom. Although I like the information, it raises a number of problems, consistent with the OR concerns. For example, Clark Griffith's managerial games exclude 1901, 1902 and 1904. Apparently because there was no World Series in those years (and Griffith won the AL pennant in 1901). But is that the right way to measure this? And how do we handle managers and players during 1994? Rlendog (talk) 21:06, 21 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per Rlendog, while I don't really consider the information to be original research (anybody can search it up), it has a broad criteria (what about the players who played during the years where there wasn't any World Series), and it's a trivial list.
