List of Slovak sculptors

 * — (View AfD)

Fails WP:LIST, as it is neither informative nor useful for navigation compared to Category:Slovak sculptors which we already have. No redlinks, so not useful for development purposes either. Punkmorten 14:48, 23 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete, unless he quickly intends to put plenty of info with each entry and make it into a table. Ditto the similar entries hereinunder. Anthony Appleyard 15:59, 23 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep. It is a useful navigation aide to finding articles. It compliments the use of categories. I don't see the utility of purging Wikipedia of navigational lists in favor of categories, there is room for both. Categories aren't superior to lists. Its like looking at a book and saying I have a table of contents and an index, I don't need both. WP:LIST doesn't say that a list has to be deleted once a category is created or visa versa. --Richard Arthur Norton (1958- ) 19:02, 23 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep Does appear to pass WP:LIST. Looks like it needs expanding however. See also Categories, lists, and series boxes. Unfortunately it doesn't look like there is a high chance of updating by original editor or any other editor, but I don't believe that is a valid reason for deletion.

 * Delete. An unannotated list of bluelinks merely duplicates a category in its present form. Sjakkalle (Check!)  09:23, 24 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment Can we delete the category since it is already served by a list? Or is that absurd? --Richard Arthur Norton (1958- ) 05:47, 26 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. Category is much better in this case as being a sculptor is one of defining characteristics for a person (on WP). Having a duplicate is only maintenance headache. Pavel Vozenilek 18:17, 26 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete redundant to category. Eluchil404 09:37, 28 December 2006 (UTC)
