1437:'s concerns. Seems inherently incomplete and unmaintainable and indiscriminate to me, but the idea of deleting this kind of critical mass of good faith contribution is also boggling. And the fact that it's already survived numerous AfD's makes me reticent to vote for deletion. I get that consensus can change over time, but at a point I think repeated noms can kind of be like trying and re-trying a criminal for the same offense until you find a jury who'll convict. My larger concern is this: the idea that this list is useful to people on Knowledge who can't spell is contingent on people actually being able to find this index. I've been typing away at Knowledge a solid year now and this AfD is the first time I'm hearing such a thing exists. And I think it's safe to say that the same thing goes for the attentive wikipedians I know who can't spell their way out of a wet paper bag. I am in no way convinced that this index is even remotely useful, but I'm also not convinced that it's not. And in a case like this, I think doubt has to equal retention of the article. 764:- It seems to me that deleting pages such as this, which people probably put a lot of time into, and that could be seen as fitting into Knowledge were some of you to have a different outlook and be more familiar with different guidelines, such as list guidelines, the community might not risk losing editors by deleting their good faith contributions. Furthermore, many of these pages have been updated recently. Additionally, there are not 6.5 billion notable people to list on Knowledge. There are only so many notable people, and in fact, the list might actually be rather manageable, relatively speaking. It may not actually be as amorphous as some see it as being. Eventually, it could be relatively complete, or at least stable to the point of only newly notable people are being added and non-notable people being taken off. And as another user comments, it will be useful to at least one of the other, maybe 6.496 billion, non-notable — people probably many more. -- 640:, lists are for information, navigation, and development. Because this system of lists includes roughly 25% of the encyclopedia's scope, it seems unlikely to serve a purpose for information. It is too close to being wholly indiscriminate. Because it cannot hope to be complete, even against existing articles, it is of questionable value as a navigation tool. Additionally, the category system already serves to allow navigation on a large scope. And both of these problems — incompleteness and scale — prevent it from being valuable for development. Additionally, there may be BLP problems. One redlinked entry from 261:, and much of the rest of the comment is, frankly, somewhat less than intelligible. And what is up with the odd capitalization, by the way — would you mind using normal capitalization? It makes reading your thoughts difficults. At any rate, I am taking it upon myself to unprotect this xfD so as to permit the discussion to resume. I strongly caution against wheel-warring (I certainly do not intend to revert if the page becomes re-protected), but I urge Jerzy to re-evaluate his or her approach. Please limit discussion of this protection/suspension to the talk page, everyone. Thanks. 832:, strongly. The notion that the fact that editors have found a page "useful" is considered by some to be a weak reason for keeping it is so wrongheaded that it shocks the conscience. It may be that the maintenance of these pages is a task best suited for a bot of some kind. But indexing and reader friendliness remain weaknesses of the project in general. Search functions not only eat up resources; they also are unhelpful to people who need to see a list in text to remind themselves of what exactly it was they were looking for. Lists like this serve that purpose. - 1789:- I actually use Knowledge regularly to look up names of obscure historical people. Sometimes the name I type in or search for is not there. But I don't give up. I try combinations of the Knowledge search results, Knowledge disambiguation pages and Google results. Sometimes I find that disambiguation pages are woefully incomplete, and there are 5-6 people with the same surname missing from the list. If I could reliably get a list of all the articles with "Fraser" in the title, that would be fine, but that is difficult at the moment. I could look at 1003:. Secondly, as for this list being "unmaintainable" manually, in the past few months I have added several thousand names to the list. Now, if at some point, we could get a large enough group of people to work together, the list could be populated relatively quickly (with names of people who satisfy notability guidelines and have an article on WP). Lastly, no one has yet explained how this is original research. -- 1325:. That is an incredibly clunky and outdated way of generating a list, but it was the only way I could think of listing all the earthquake articles in that category and its subcategories. Something similar needs to be done for the biographical articles. I agree the current set-up of pages is not it, but please preserve and compare the two sets of information before assuming that one duplicates the other. 436: 1756:. That led me to believe that LoPbN in that case had important information. The arguemtn still holds, because undoubtedly there are other pages like that. It is partly my fault, but creating that impression during a deletion discussion is misleading, and it would be better if you mention edits like this, as otherwise people misunderstand the history of the pages in question. 1596:. My point is that sometimes browsing a category is the best option, sometimes browsing a list is the best option, and sometimes browsing a set of search results is the best option. Now apply this to people. I would love to be able to click "X" in an alphabetical index and see a set of biographical articles on people who's names begin with X. Currently, that list is at 1298:
those previous discussions, in fact these were very heavily discussed deletions with many valid and interesting points on both sides, and I think it was downright dishonest to suggest otherwise. This discussion amounts to "what are appropriate ways to index content in Knowledge" -- this isn't just some list about Family Guy episodes. --

notable. However, this trend cannot be expected to continue. Over time, the rate of new notable person articles will approach the rate of new notable persons. I submit that the rate of new notable persons is low enough that, although it may be difficult to 'maintain' this list now, in the future maintaining it will become trivial. —
98:- I would like to request a bot be used to list, on a single page all the articles listed on these pages (unless there are simpler methods). This would allow comparison with existing lists and categories, and allow gradual progression from this system to a more maintainable one that would, ultimately, use the transclusion list of 684:, there is simply no way it can be kept for the long term owing to continued attempts to delete by persons who vigorously oppose its existence. It is not original research, it is not useless, and it is not unmaintainable but it is unpopular - and that is the reason why it is ultimately doomed to deletion. --User:Ceyockey ( 728:(these were chosen randomly based on using hte random_article feature); I find the related changes pages to be reasonably sized morsels for compartmentalized and directed anti-vandalism surveillance in an area - biography - where vandalism has a magnified impact.
