List of footballers called Abdur Rahman was nominated for deletion. The discussion was closed on 19 December 2015 with a consensus to merge. Its contents were merged into Abd al-Rahman.

So incredibly long...

Wow, is this a long page. There are so many people with this name. Plus, separate pages for football and cricket plays (Abdur Rehman (cricketer) and List of footballers called Abdur Rahman). I'd rather not merge those in and make this page even longer. It might make sense to split out the politicians to another page? What are we to do?

@Ego White Tray: It follows the patterns of other common names, eg John Smith. I'd support merging the 2 split lists into this main list. (I arrived here via Category:Disambiguation pages in need of cleanup from March 2012) –Quiddity (talk) 06:35, 9 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
