List of 1510 English incumbents

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

This seems to be an entirely unnecessary split from List of rulers of the United Kingdom and predecessor states and the various sublists. Given that leaders don't change a huge amount year-to-year, a complete creation of all of the years of English "incumbents" would result in a bunch of nearly identical and fairly useless lists. There are a couple other articles along these lines located at Category:Lists of English leaders by year. If this closes as delete, I intend to nominate the rest.

 * On the one hand, I think that this information is useful to have - maybe just not in this format. It's good to have good visualization of data, but a year-by-year breakdown in different articles isn't particularly useful and I'm not sure that it would be considered notable by the year. As such, delete from me, with the hopes that the data could be included better on other list pages. Ajraddatz (talk) 18:59, 22 April 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete. If someone does want a list of rulers of a country in a given year, then they should be able to extract that from Wikidata whatever the country and whatever the year. It's not something that Wikipedia can do better. Thryduulf (talk) 21:28, 25 April 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete as still questionable for its own article. SwisterTwister   talk  23:10, 27 April 2016 (UTC)
