Proposed change in title

Also, proposing to reassess this page from Start class to List class for the same reason. - Jameson L. Tai talk ♦ contribs 05:18, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
- I disagree. This page contains the Boston Celtics all-time roster, so the title of this page is correct. Would you consider changing 50 Cent discography to, say, List of 50 Cent songs and records? I wouldn't.--Crzycheetah 05:37, 4 March 2008 (UTC)]
- I'd assume sports and music would be in different categories for discussion. - Jameson L. Tai talk ♦ contribs 05:47, 4 March 2008 (UTC) However, upon further review, it would be better if this article conform to existing rosters of other sports teams. The article's assessment, however, will stay in List class. - Jameson L. Tai talk ♦ contribs 05:50, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
