Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of tall men
We don't keep lists where the standards for inclusion amount to original research and personal opinion or that would be too large and diffuse if populated accordingly.  This one is highly subjective: it includes retired basketball player Charles Barkley but not currently active Kobe Bryant and actually would extend to include a large percentage of basketball players in all professional leagues and Olympic teams, past and present.  It would also encompass large numbers of American football players, Sumo wrestling|sumo wrestlers, and competitors from various other sports.  Potentially that would mean thousands of -worthy entries just in the field of athletics.  Complicating this is the fairly common practice of exaggerating heights and weights in official team publications, which leads to contradictory data.  Although we don't delete for edit wars the months-long dispute at this page is symptomatic of these insoluble dilemmas.  I tried to help the editors work through these problems a while back; I no longer believe that is feasible
