Beyoncé listography

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Also included in this nomination:

I brought this up for an informal discussion at WT:WPMU a couple weeks ago. These may be considered WP:LISTCRUFT by failing to meet WP:IINFO and WP:TRIVIA. The most significant accolades are already found in the awards and nominations lists. If an album by the artist is ranked one of the top ten albums of the year, that factoid can be mentioned in that album's article. If kept, there's no reason not to have similar lists for everyone from Frank Sinatra to Billie Eilish. Star cheers peaks news lost wars Talk to me 01:05, 14 December 2019 (UTC)

 * Delete If you have to make up a fake word to describe your topic, it may not be a bright idea for a list. Are any of these actually covered in independent sources or are they all primary? Why would anyone think that being the 39th least annoying of 2012 according to amiannoying.com belongs on Wikipedia? If it's a notable ranking like Billboard, it should be on the respective song/album's article or her own article, as many of these are, but this is pure listcruft just for the sake of it, not because Buzzfeed ranking her music videos as the Most Incredible needs to be noted.

 * Delete. A wild mishmash of rankings that nobody else would ever think of bundling together. Clarityfiend (talk) 07:33, 14 December 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete per . This honestly feels ike a classic example of synthesis. It's relatively well sourced, but there's no organization or governing ethos that would group these seemingly random lists together. As Reywas92 noted, the notable honors and awards should be included (and as far as I can tell, are included) in Beyonce and Lana Del Rey. The rest are not notable enough to justify an article or do not necessarily belong grouped together under a single banner. Michepman (talk) 17:22, 14 December 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete for numerous issues, mainly WP:LISTCRUFT, WP:TRIVIA, WP:INDISCRIMINATE (apparently no criteria for the "place") and just overall WP:OR/WP:SYNTH of sources. Does not pass WP:LISTN as no source covers the groups as a whole like this. Does not warrant a WP:SPLIT because it would be trivia in parent articles anyway. The creator appears to be single-purposely making these award/trivia lists. (Disclaimer: the related articles were on my watchlist, because I previous encountered the author who made the now-deleted rejected Draft:Awards of Angel Locsin and copied it into Angel Locsin and kept reverting even after being contacted, although I didn't pursue this further at the time.) — HELL KNOWZ   ▎TALK 18:27, 14 December 2019 (UTC)

 * Delete both In the current climate, with some sights (I'm death starting at BuzzFeed) thriving on creating meaningless lists all the time, being put on a list made by someone has no high value anymore. This is an indiscriminate list, that as others have mentioned violates all sorts of content and creation rules. It is a nightmare waiting to happen.John Pack Lambert (talk) 15:26, 16 December 2019 (UTC)
 * Strong delete Incredibly unnecessary. Any important list achievements are already covered in her Good Article. Leave this to IMDb. Trillfendi (talk) 17:11, 16 December 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete both per WP:LISTCRUFT. A huge indiscriminate collection of trivial media mentions. Ajf773 (talk) 19:57, 16 December 2019 (UTC)
