Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of bespectacled baseball players
The article is taking one trait—wearing glasses—from a few sources, and incorrectly applying notability to all players wearing glasses.  The sources discuss notable players who have worn glasses, but never discusses as a whole all players with glasses. http://www.usatoday.com/sports/baseball/sbbw0724.htm USA Today only points out individual notable players with glasses. The http://www.oaklandfans.com/columns/markusen/markusen156.html Glasses Half Full article also discusses individual players and notable events, but not the entire glasses-wearing universe.  says "A list topic is considered notable if it has been discussed as a ''group'' or ''set'' by independent reliable sources, per the above guidelines." This criteria is not met. In fact, ''Glasses Half Full'' implies the group today is rather non-notable, saying "By the end of the 1970s, the wearing of glasses and contact lenses had become commonplace—so much so that they practically ceased to bring attention to themselves."  In most cases  is a poor argument, but consider that a topic such as black players in baseball has a list, List of first black Major League Baseball players by team and date, but does not have an exhaustive list of all blacks in baseball. There may be potential for an entirely different article based on |reliable sources to discuss trends in glasses or overall corrective vision (let's include contacts and laser surgery) in baseball history.  However, the subject and format of this current article implies notability of a group of people that is not |verifiable
