Births list[edit]

Like most articles in this series, this one has been ruined by the obsessive compilation of a births list which adds no value to the reader. On this page, at least half a dozen of the birth entries are for people who do not even have articles and are therefore "not notable" in Wikipedia parlance. The whole balance of the article has been compromised and it has been taken away from its purpose of stating the significant sporting events of the year. The birth in 1960 of someone who took part in a minor sport at the 1984 Olympics has no significance in terms of "1960 in sports". --86.139.109.83 (talk) 09:13, 4 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Back again. Lo and behold, there is a discussion about this very issue in the sports project forum which I found by following the project links in the box at the top of this page. I will add my voice to that discussion. --86.139.109.83 (talk) 09:21, 4 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Hi. As per WT:SPORTS this is being put into effect. 1951 to 1960 all done. --Orrelly Man (talk) 11:51, 5 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
