Name includes a tautology, as our notability criteria dictate that every player who's played professionally for Aberdeen is notable. Any suggestions, or just move to List of Aberdeen F.C. players? -- Dweller ( talk) 11:41, 2 April 2008 (UTC)
If we're sticking to the notability criteria at the top of the page then there are several players here who should not be, if we're not then the introduction should be re-written (I'd prefer some tighter guidelines as it's just plain cruel to have people like Jeffrey de Visscher listed). If every player that has played for the club is going to be listed then some sort of chronological feature would seem appropriate, as it's that which would make the page more useful than looking up Category:Aberdeen F.C. players -- Declan Clam ( talk) 20:35, 20 August 2009 (UTC)
I've made a start at filling out this page a bit more. If anyone else wants to have a go at adding to it, I've found that this page [1] is a useful list of players, although you would have to click on the player's profile to see if he played 100+ games for Aberdeen.

Does anyone have a birth year for George Thomson? He's currently redlinked as George Thomson (Scottish footballer), but this is ambiguous with George Thomson (footballer, born 1936). A birth year should be added to the link, and this should also be disambiguated in the articles for the 1938–39, 1939–40, and 1943–44 seasons. Nick Number ( talk) 18:03, 2 March 2017 (UTC)
