 * Strong keep. It's not an "indiscriminate huge list" - it's a large list with clearly defined parameters. As far as I can see the article doesn't fall foul of any of the categories in WP:NOT. In particular, I don't see that WP:NOT applies - in fact "…tabular information for quick reference" seems to nicely describe the article. Because of Disney's predilection for anthropomorphising everything, it usefully complements the existing Disney lists. It does need a lot of work, certainly, e.g. lots of wls, a proper lead section, and the actors providing the voices should be included. But I don't see why it couldn't eventually become a featured list like List of Harry Potter films cast members.

 * Delete The list is comprised of loosely related terms. Not everything made by Disney is meaningfully connected, and Wikipedia should not create lists that could lead people to that conclusion. Jay32183 02:47, 7 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Strong Keep. This article is not an "indiscriminate huge list" and I don't think it has a problem with the boundaries of WP:NOT and I definitely don't consider this a directory.  As was said above, Disney/Pixar anthropomorphizes everything from animals to silverware.  The list does need to be cleaned up a bit, toss in some more links and adding the voice casts is a good idea, too.  Useight 01:54, 9 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep. It's still in the early stages.  A lot of articles start off kind of sloppy before they get improved.  I say keep per reasons above, and I especially agree that it could become like that Harry Potter article mentioned above, which is a pretty good article, if I say so myself.  208.187.181.70 19:48, 9 May 2007 (UTC)
