Random collection. No way to define any meaningful inclusion or exclusion criteria. --Latebird 19:55, 12 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Looks like the start of a list of some sort - but frankly, it'd get far too bulky to do anything with, very fast. Delete - I think we probably have a category for this anyhow. Tony Fox (arf!) review? 20:00, 12 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete Would become overwhelmed far to quickly. -- omtay 38  20:10, 12 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete - Too broad of a term, with no relation of where they were from and what their accomplishments were. Violation of WP:NOT.  --  Hot Dog Wolf  --  Bark!  20:31, 12 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Strong delete. This would be far too broad a list if kept -- no inclusion criteria, etc. etc. Funny, we've had a fox, a wolf, and now an otter vote on this... Ten Pound Hammer  • (((Broken clamshells • Otter chirps))) 20:44, 12 July 2007 (UTC)
 * How dare you insult the notability of the wild omtay. It is closly related to the badger, only has transparent fur. Heck, it's even on the endangered species list. :-) -- omtay 38  20:48, 12 July 2007 (UTC)


 * Delete - To massive a subject to be placed in one article. -- Tλε Rαnδom Eδιτor  ( ταlκ )  21:09, 12 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete, massively indiscriminate list. (And I defend lists when I can.) --Dhartung | Talk 21:25, 12 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete, one of the most impossible to maintain lists ever. &mdash;Xezbeth 21:32, 12 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete This is absolutely useless, categories (likely tons of sub-cats) may be more appropriate then this "gem".--JForget 22:44, 12 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete. Everyone is "historical". -- Charlene 00:33, 13 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete, forgive me but LOL, that would be one long article.Merkinsmum 01:00, 13 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete: Perhaps the originator of the article meant Hysterical People?  -- Ssilvers 01:17, 13 July 2007 (UTC)
