According to Articles for deletion/List of atheist Nobel laureates (2nd nomination), this article was to be deleted. It was recreated without any deletion review discussion and the issues outlined at that deletion discussion are not addressed in the recreation of the content. Until such time as these issues are addressed, this list does not deserve inclusion. jps (talk) 22:55, 11 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Why? This is is not the same page as List of atheist Nobel laureates, is not it? My very best wishes (talk) 01:44, 12 October 2015 (UTC)

You should discuss these matters in the page, "List of atheist Nobel Laureates", This page was nominated for deletion few years ago and after long discussion, it remained intact.Skashifakram (talk) 02:08, 12 October 2015 (UTC)


 * The deletion discussion included all lists of Nobel laureates by religion. They were all deleted. I have not seen any deletion review discussions overturning this decision. jps (talk) 02:29, 12 October 2015 (UTC)
 * This is strange. We have a number of pages in the Category:Lists_of_atheists. What's the problem? Why anything should be deleted? My very best wishes (talk) 03:23, 12 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Read the discussion. It's linked above. jps (talk) 03:34, 12 October 2015 (UTC)


 * Comment Five years later, a discussion at Articles for deletion/List of Muslim Nobel Laureates ended with no consensus (March 2012). I don't know any way of viewing the page as it was in 2007; it may have been quite different than the one discussed in 2012. RockMagnetist(talk) 23:13, 12 October 2015 (UTC)

 * Keep. It appears that a significant number of RS discuss specifically Muslim Nobel Prize winners, for example, ,, and more. Hence this is a legitimate subject, even for creation of a regular page. The requirements for creating lists are less strict. My very best wishes (talk) 01:49, 14 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep. We have List of Jewish Nobel laureates and List of Christian Nobel laureates (both of which are currently heading toward easy keeps at AFD).  There is no rationale to keep those and delete this one.  The consensus arguments made at those AFDs to keep those articles should apply here.  It might make sense to merge them all into something like List of Nobel laureates by religion.  Gnome de plume (talk) 01:35, 15 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep: The nomination makes no policy-based reason for deletion. Articles get created after prior deletions all the time, depending on whether a better article can be written.  All these lists by religion are only notable if sources make it a notable distinction, as User:My very best wishes reasonably argues.--Milowent • hasspoken  03:35, 15 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep for all the same reasons the other lists are being kept. VMS Mosaic (talk) 03:04, 16 October 2015 (UTC)
