List of South Park Elementary staff

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Not notable - a much more likely to be notable list is available at List of recurring South Park characters. Dysklyver 12:55, 13 October 2017 (UTC)


 * Can someone who knows how please include List of South Park families and List of students at South Park Elementary to this nomination. Dysklyver  12:58, 13 October 2017 (UTC)
 * ✅. Primefac (talk) 13:20, 13 October 2017 (UTC)


 * Keep, at worst merge (which would create a very long list, probably the reason this was split in four lists). The three nominated lists are characters explicitly not included in List of recurring South Park characters. The effect of this ill thought out nomination is that the most notable cast members (the families, Chef, ...) would get deleted, and the more random remaining characters in the one list not nominated would remain. This isn't the first dubious AfD nomination by Dysklyver, please take much more care and time to research what you are nominating instead of randomly selecting pages, adding bogus reasons (see e.g. Articles for deletion/No Mountains in Manhattan) and thus wasting the time of a lot of editors (or worse, getting articles deleted under false pretenses).

 * Fram mate, be civil! My nominations are well researched, and if you feel your time is being wasted, that is not my intention, and I apologize. My main thoughts on this subject revolve around the well discussed and settled List of Pokémon, which is a featured list. Currently each of these South Park characters which are not individually notable have extended unsourced 'biographies' as part of a extended list. There is no need for this list to be split into 3 basically unconnected standalone lists, nor IMO is there any need to write quite so much about each character. My AfD is basically a merge proposal to facilitate a better list similar to the one about Pokemon, which could hopefully become a featured list also. For this reason, the three lists I have nominated are not needed - and should be deleted - and the remaining article could be considered for renaming if needed. Dysklyver  15:56, 13 October 2017 (UTC)
 * Then research first what AfD is for, and how a merge works. If you want a merge, suggest a merge at the talk pages, don't start an AFD. We may not merge and delete articles. And your deletion nomination has nothing to do with what you are saying now either. So yes, your AfDs are wrong and you should stop nominating them. This has nothing to do with being civil or uncivil, civility doesn't mean that we can't point out problems with the editing of others, certainly when they are so frequent.

 * Keep - I see no need to delete this article. It needs work; sure, but the information is correct, and South Park is certainly notable. With Thanks - Lee Vilenski(talk) 15:31, 13 October 2017 (UTC)
 * Keep - The show is on its 21st season. The amount of characters the show has is enough reason to warrant its own article about the various characters that span those seasons. DrkBlueXG (talk) 21:10, 13 October 2017 (UTC)
 * there are currently four mostly unreferenced lists of characters, I think there should be one, and that it should be improved and perhaps be a featured list. Dysklyver  13:41, 14 October 2017 (UTC)
 * Then perhaps treating this similar to the two articles of The Simpsons - List of The Simpsons characters & List of one-time The Simpsons characters? Or maybe they can be Merged into one article and drop the characters that are not necessary. DrkBlueXG (talk) 15:36, 14 October 2017 (UTC)
 * speedy Keep all - Why would you want to delete this list? I don't think the nominator put much thought into why the lists were divided up in the first place. Govvy (talk) 18:44, 16 October 2017 (UTC)
