[edit] Fill missing DATA request
Can anyone find the time to dig up missing data from any reliable sources!--Wikipedian DOG 17:16, 21 January 2006 (UTC)
- This is a list of players who have played 100 or more times for Arsenal, or are particularly notable in some other way, so I suspect that your edit adding current players may be reverted. A discussion about such matters is currently taking place at Wikipedia:WikiProject Football/Notability. It is likely that figures for Danskin are genuinely unknown, as he was one of the founders of the club, and played at a time when records were not well kept. Oldelpaso 17:26, 21 January 2006 (UTC)

- I've reverted the additions made: Category:Arsenal F.C. players is where a list of all Arsenal F.C. players can be found and the current first-team squad is specified at Arsenal_F.C.#Current_squad. Adding in every member of the current squad to this list only makes sense if you add the details of every player that has ever played for Arsenal in as well, which would make this far too long to be of use.

[edit] Questions
I'm working on a similar list for Watford players. I was wondering, does this list include war appearances? I don't know whether to include them or not. Also, when a player is listed as an inside forward did you categorise them as a forward or a midfielder? Think that's all I need to know right now! HornetMike 00:56, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

- Wartime appearances are excluded, as the League and the FA do not consider them official first-class matches.
- I think I've generally listed them as forwards, though there may be exceptions. Qwghlm 08:04, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

- Oky-doke, thanks for that, Qwghlm. HornetMike 11:55, 4 July 2006 (UTC)
