- Lists of Egyptians (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) (delete) – (View log)
Indiscriminate, unreferenced, open-ended list. A great deal of this article is in a language other than English, and some of the article seems to consist of the resumes of some fellows of Egyptian extraction. L0b0t (talk) 14:34, 29 January 2009 (UTC) resume removed and large paragraphs of Arabic(?) removed, thank you Edward321 and Jmundo. L0b0t (talk) 15:17, 29 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep Not indisciminate and organizes articles in a way a category can't. The not-English parts are clearly the various individuals names in their native language. And non-notables can easily be removed by just trimming the redlinks; I've already done a little of that. Edward321 (talk) 15:05, 29 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Article also replicates content found at List of ancient Egyptians, List of Egyptian athletes, and List of Copts. Perhaps I could be convinced to support a merge of all four, provided that every name has a cited source of course. L0b0t (talk) 15:12, 29 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep - not indiscriminate. Not very useful, perhaps, but that's not a sin. andy (talk) 18:26, 29 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
