Appears to be a totally redundant list with the category they are part of without any additional value. ZXCVBNM (TALK) 03:29, 25 September 2017 (UTC)

 * Keep argument is invalid per WP:NOTDUP. A valid argument for deletion should be advanced by or the nomination withdrawn or closed per WP:SK criterion 1. Jclemens (talk) 09:13, 25 September 2017 (UTC)
 * List of Scottish writers can include those people as well (and does, with abbreviations), so this appears to be a particular example of overlistification. There does not appear to be a need for more specific lists that merely duplicate content. There are very few other similar lists by nationality that get this specific.ZXCVBNM (TALK) 09:28, 25 September 2017 (UTC)
