Comment For reference, there's recent NBA-related AfDs Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of career achievements by Larry Bird, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of career achievements by Dwight Howard, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of career achievements by Carmelo Anthony, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of career achievements by Chris Paul.—Bagumba (talk) 03:36, 28 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Per nom, don't need such lists especially said achievements can be placed in the player's own main page in an accolades, or legacy area. Will also copy paste this to the other aforementioned lists. Noorullah (talk) 05:48, 28 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Comment And for reference, there's recent golf player's Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of career achievements by Jack Nicklaus. Less related but still relevant to the discussion. - BeFriendlyGoodSir (talk) 05:50, 28 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
WP:TOOBIG, cited in Nicklaus' case, doesn't apply to Garnett's page.—Bagumba (talk) 06:24, 28 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, I agree. But someone will possibly make the assertion that every single career achievement page (across all sports) should be deleted (already happened in previous AfD discussions). Before they go there, they should consider Nicklaus' AfD result. - BeFriendlyGoodSir (talk) 18:14, 28 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Career achievements of sportspeople shows that 18 racing drivers have their own career achievements page. Is WP:TOOBIG the reason why? - BeFriendlyGoodSir (talk) 18:33, 28 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS. —Bagumba (talk) 00:55, 29 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Those articles make a little bit more sense in racing sports and golf, which have lots of discrete named events. From a maintenance perspective, they're easier to manage. Many of the achievements listed in NBA articles are cumulative stats and career rankings that are continuously subject to change. Zagalejo (talk) 04:14, 3 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Unneeded WP:CONTENTFORK packed with WP:UNDUE, trivial statistics. Major, defining achievements should be captured in the bio, which it already does in its main prose and via tables and lists at Kevin Garnett § NBA career statistics and Kevin Garnett § Achievements and records. The rest here fails WP:NOTSTATS: Statistics that lack context or explanation can reduce readability and may be confusing The page is a pure stats dump.—Bagumba (talk) 15:16, 3 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as a content fork of the biography. P.S. It's hard enough for the stats people to keep things updated in one centralized place, let alone if every player starts getting a biography page and a stats page. Carrite (talk) 16:08, 4 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
