List of Academy Award winners

Do I really need to give a reason for this one? Though empty, in essense it aims to be a recreation of hundreds of pages of content. FuriousFreddy 00:32, 29 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom, category provides a good enough summary of content. -Phoenix 00:39, 29 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete As many of the awards have been given for 60 or more years, this page would become unusably long if it were completed. The categories and other pages do a much better job. Mr.Z-man  talk ¢ 01:16, 29 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment, perhaps rename to Lists of Academy Award winners and make it a dab to the existing lists? --Dhartung | Talk 01:58, 29 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Completely unneccessary. The Academy Awards article already does this. --FuriousFreddy 05:57, 29 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete. already displays all the related lists and articles much better than a list could. Croxley 02:34, 29 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete - the various lists and articles categorized in Category:Academy Awards is more than sufficient. Otto4711 02:42, 29 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete obviously. Though I am tempted to let the creator try and complete it.  It should be done around 2012, and the page will be about 3000kb... Resolute 04:58, 29 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Speedy Delete per obvious issues. Though Resolute makes a good point: 5 years isn't too long of a time :). Jmlk17 07:09, 29 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete Too broad, with no limitations, it would easily explode with the number of awards. --Nehrams2020 07:51, 29 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete. Oh lord, there's a cat in the house! Sr13 (T|C) ER 09:55, 29 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete obviously redundant. I think the categories do a better job. — An as  talk? 17:36, 29 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete. No point in recreating a category as an article. -- xompanthy 19:07, 29 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment Having created this page, I did not know of the nearly identical page List of Academy Award winning films had been already created. Now I know this exists, I think That we should incorporate this article into that one, as mine is organized by award won, not alphabetically, or we could let it be, and it might take off like my Joe Swanberg article did, after it also was slated for deletion, or we could delete it instantly, because I just realized what a ridiculous article it is. Thank you. Rapigan 15:47, 29 April 2007 (UTC)
 * A list of Academy Award winners organized by award is a recreation of hundreds of pages of content, since each award and each award ceremony already have their own articles. A list organized alphabetically, with the number of awards each person has won, would be a beneficial addition to the encyclopedia. --FuriousFreddy 01:54, 30 April 2007 (UTC)
 * True, you do have a point there....--Rapigan 07:51, 31 April 2007 (UTC)
