Unencyclopedic trivia — in the unlikely event that we actually needed these, they'd be perfectly fine as subsections of Mayor of San Francisco, but they're just not necessary as distinct articles. Previously prodded; tag was removed by creator with no comment or rationale provided. Delete, or merge if we must. Bearcat 04:46, 12 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete - Interesting lists. However, I can't think of anyone who could use such information. I think if each article established actual use of such information by WP:RS, they would be keepers. Until then, delete. --  Jreferee  (Talk) 05:55, 12 August 2007 (UTC)
 * DeleteInclude information in Mayor of San Francisco. There seems no purpose having this as an encyclopedia article. I doubt that it is the kind of thing anyone would search for by this name. However, people might look for such information on a 'mayors' page. Anarchia 06:03, 12 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete I see no need to make copies of list of people by their age, unless age is an important factor as to the inclusion into the list Corpx 06:41, 12 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete. This list is inane, useless, trivial.DDD DDD 09:03, 12 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete I get the concept, as with Earliest living United States president, which is now Carter after Ford died in December (before that, it was Nixon, Johnson, Truman, Hoover, etc.) Because of the fascination that the American public has with "The Presidency", one can get away with such trivia (and that's really all it is) about American presidents.  There isn't the same interest in mayors of San Francisco, California. Mandsford 14:13, 12 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete. Unencyclopedic list. Bart133 (t) (c) 16:50, 12 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment - The information is in any case redundant to Living Mayors of San Francisco. --Tikiwont 08:48, 13 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Do we really need that list either? Bearcat 17:15, 13 August 2007 (UTC)
 * No, we don't need that list, either. Delete the two nominated articles and Living Mayors of San Francisco. All are redundant to Mayor of San Francisco.--orlady 03:59, 14 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Well, while I don't think this is the best way to put the question, I'd say this AfD is not the place to answer it, since you haven't nominated that list, and the discussion is now in full course. BTW, there is also List of mayors of San Francisco, California. --Tikiwont 08:26, 14 August 2007 (UTC)
