471:). On the other hand, millionaires, artists, terrorists/guerilla fighters are not notable by default and those lists would be useful only in specific cases, such as oldest Olympians, Academy Award winners, Nobel prize winners, etc. Contrary to articles such as "oldest surviving ", lists like this would never become empty. 710:
doesn't reveal anything and no one in the discussion has provided anything discussing this cross-category. Ultimately this is just trying to tie together an inherently notable thing (being a state leader) with something not inherently notable (longevity). Sources do speak about the oldest current
681:- A trivial cross-categorization that really has no reliable sources actually discussing the topic. There may be sources that discuss the specific ages of some of the individual members, but there are none that actually demonstrate why the overall topic of how long state leaders live is notable. 655:
This article is really very interesting for the reader and much work has been done on it, with credible sources validating the quoted ages. The existence of the page helps study on political leaders and can serve as a redirection page for the visitors of wikipedia to see the whole pages of these

what matters is what the person did when they were in office, not what they did and how long they lived after retirement. There are many of these trivial "list of oldest oldies" pages all over Knowledge now, and they just do not want to die. Maybe we need a page about the longest Afd surviving

But many things about state leaders are mentioned in the news. My concern is going down the trivia path. If we go that way, then how about other things mentioned n the news, e.g. number of girl friends? Would that be interesting? Encyclopedic? What is certain is that if that list is built

Some of these gerontological lists are interesting (to me) albeit completely unencyclopedic. But I am struggling with the interest in things like Constantine Kollias being somewhere between 70th-90th longest lived state leader.

Well it’s clearly an endless source of fascination to gerontology obsessives for reasons they can state in only the vaguest of terms, but that’s not the point.
