List of Brazilian Racing Drivers

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

It looks like a test page. Also it doesn't have any inclusion criteria which will led to giant list which will be the clear case of WP:Indiscriminate. Corvus tristis (talk) 10:26, 21 April 2017 (UTC)

 * Comment My initial though was to say keep per WP:CLN. Then I looked at the article. It's an obvious draft someone started and quickly forgot about. Delete it as being unsourced and out-of-date with no help to anyone who stumbles upon it. No problem if it's either a) expanded during the duration of this AfD or b) re-created after deletion with some meaningful context.  Lugnuts  Fire Walk with Me 12:03, 21 April 2017 (UTC)
 * I think that b) is the better option in this case. Corvus tristis (talk) 12:11, 21 April 2017 (UTC)


 * Keep per WP:CLN and WP:IMPERFECT. Andrew D. (talk) 18:20, 21 April 2017 (UTC)
 * This list was created in 2013. And nobody (even the author, who have written in the list itself "please add to this list") has any desire to add some content and references. Wikipedia is a work in progress but we don't see any progress and wouldn't see it. In the current state I think the list is an obvious WP:G2. Also I don't see a need in a list of racing drivers by country, just imagine if somebody would like to create List of more than 1500 American racing drivers.

 * Keep. Reasonable list topic, issues can be fixed. --Michig (talk) 20:05, 23 April 2017 (UTC)
 * Keep but rename to List of Brazilian Professional Racing Drivers which narrows the scope and identifies clear inclusion criteria. The topic is notable, a list is reasonable per WP:CLN, and while what is there is seriously imperfect, that is an editing problem to be fixed not a reason for deletion.  The content is unsupported by references but plenty do exist as a simple search would show (in line with WP:BEFORE), or by looking to sources on the pages of wikilinked driver biographies.  Content does not infringe on WP:BLP and an incomplete article is not the same as a G2-test page.  EdChem (talk) 07:45, 24 April 2017 (UTC)

 * Keep for the very reasons I stated at the German list's AFD, which is to say, per WP:CLN and Category:Brazilian racing drivers. It is indeed incomplete and WP:IMPERFECT but that's no reason to delete. It does offer readers some of the advantages of a list, with series, teams and notes.
