Gallery of Presidents of the United States
WP:NOT: "Collections of photographs or media files with no text to go with the articles." Zzyzx11 (Talk) 05:38, 26 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Also seems like an abridged, redundant version of List of Presidents of the United States. Zzyzx11 (Talk) 06:05, 26 June 2006 (UTC)


 * Keep per resolution of the image gallery discussion. Also, WP:NOT states that only "collections of photographs or media files with no text to go with the articles" are not allowed, whereas the Gallery of Presidents of the United States does contain text (such as the names of the presidents and the years of their terms in office).--TBC TaLk?!?  05:53, 26 June 2006 (UTC)
 * List of Presidents of the United States lists the names of the presidents and the years of their terms in office. So how are they Not redundant? Zzyzx11 (Talk) 06:01, 26 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete per Zzyzx11. He's right, all the pictures are right there in the List of Presidents of the United States article, there's no need for this. Nothing links here anyway.--UsaSatsui 06:10, 26 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete, redundant to List of Presidents of the United States, orphaned article. Fails Wikipedia is not a mirror or repository of links, images, or media files. --Coredesat 09:05, 26 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete as redundant and orphaned - does have a more pleasing layout that List of Presidents of the United States though - Peripitus (Talk) 09:11, 26 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete, redundant copy of President of the United States. &mdash;Lamentation ( 11:19, 26 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. Wikipedia is not an image gallery. Sjakkalle (Check!)  14:33, 26 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep companion article to the text articles - we wouldn't wanna flood the real article with 50 official portraits, would we, but the info is eminently useful nonetheless! - CrazyRussian talk/email 14:59, 26 June 2006 (UTC)
 * The real article is already "flooded" with 50 official portraits. &mdash;Lamentation ( 15:04, 26 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete, completely redundant. WTF is wrong with me...!? - CrazyRussian talk/email 02:04, 27 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep There is nothing wrong with having some well chosen image galleries and I think this one is a credit to Wikipedia. Honbicot 16:27, 26 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete - Per Zzyzx11 (and redirect to List). I don't even see why there is debate over this.  This content already exists on Wikipedia.  Wickethewok 17:19, 26 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep - Very original I must say. Wikipedia should have more of these. -- TonyM ｷﾀ━( °∀° )━ｯ!!  17:27, 26 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete as redundant with List of Presidents of the United States and President of the United States.--Isotope23 18:00, 26 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep, per TBC. I don't count the presentation of similar information in a different (and useful) form to be redundant. Many of the thumbnails on the List of Presidents of the United States are so small you can only tell that the person is white and male. hateless 19:07, 26 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment If your major argument is that is should be kept because the images on List of Presidents of the United States are too small, ONUnicorn just cancelled your argument out by doubling all the image sizes. Looks quite nice now.--Isotope23 16:13, 27 June 2006 (UTC)


 * Delete per nom and UsaSatsui. Agent 86 19:12, 26 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Redirect, There is no need to have a redunant page, probably someone couldn't find the other one and made this one. The larger pictures are better, perhaps someone should increase the size of the images on the other one? ONUnicorn 19:47, 26 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete per Zzyzx11. Redundant list. --DaveG12345 21:24, 26 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete per Isotope23. This belongs in the Commons, where it already is. Z iggurat 22:00, 26 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep actually encylopedic, a list of notable persons with portraits/photographs. I think it may be a little misplace, though. Yanksox (talk) 23:25, 26 June 2006 (UTC) Well, I just saw the list of US Presidents. Seems redundant now. Delete Yanksox (talk) 23:27, 26 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete It offers no information that can't be found elsewhere easily. GassyGuy 03:29, 27 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete per WP:NOT and obvious redundancy with the President of.. article.--Peta 02:12, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete and redirect to List of Presidents of the United States. There's nothing here that isn't already there. ScottW 02:15, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. The policy on these "gallery" articles makes if very clear that are not allowed. Coffee 15:53, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Redirect to List of Presidents of the United States since this page is somewhat redundant. Yamaguchi先生 07:24, 29 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Redirect to List of Presidents of the United States that page already has all the content. Eluchil404 13:16, 29 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Redirect to List of Presidents of the United States, or delete. -- Ardenn  20:17, 30 June 2006 (UTC)
