Not that all but one is entirely unsourced but WP:LISTCRUFT sums it all up. Virtually all of those bluelinked are not specific to sports broadcastings; for example, a bulk of John Williams' fame was from movie composing. Are we going to every film and TV composers who worked on the Olympics too. Are we going to list Emerson, Lake & Palmer ( Fanfare for the Common Man) and Fleetwood Mac ( The Chain) too? I cannot see this passing WP:NLIST too. SpacedFarmer ( talk) 10:12, 29 April 2024 (UTC) reply

• Delete - It seems to have some people who work exclusively in sports programming but there are probably many more; and it also throws in some notable composers (as mentioned by the nominator) who happened to sell a few things to sports programs but there are probably many more of those as well. Simply not a tenable list per the requirements at WP:NLIST. --- DOOMSDAYER520 ( TALK| CONTRIBS) 14:16, 30 April 2024 (UTC) reply
