List of United States Senators from Delaware (alphabetic)

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Unhelpful fork of List of United States Senators from Delaware; it offers no more information, and duplicates the data on that article. A category would serve a better purpose if any were actually needed.

Oh please, what senseless nonsense. Why do we have to put up with this trivia? Please come to your senses, especially you who should be more knowledgeable! Are you going to help me with Biden design, or just wait to criticize what I end up doing? stilltim (talk) 00:33, 1 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete per the same rationale at similar Afd. Stilltim, we honestly don't know how to help you anymore, given your disdain for any viewpoint but your own.DCmacnut &lt; &gt; 01:48, 1 July 2009 (UTC)
 * This AfD nomination was incomplete (missing step 3). It is listed now. DumbBOT (talk) 11:21, 1 July 2009 (UTC)


 * Delete, the only benefit provided by this page is a different order than the linked list of senators, and that too could be remedied if we added a sortable feature to the template. Surely that alone isn't a sufficient reason for a separate article.  Nyttend (talk) 11:48, 1 July 2009 (UTC)

 * Delete I'm usually pretty big on lists, but I honestly see no navigational value, nor a need for an alphabetized list of Senators from Delaware or any other American state, since they all have articles about them. If you know enough to look for someone's name on this list, then you have the information to locate the article about that person without benefit of the list.  On the other hand, if you're looking for the identity of who the two Senators were in, say, 1917, then you wouldn't consult this list at all.  This could be one of the variables on a sortable table.

 * Delete for the same reason as the other list.......it's duplicative. Niteshift36 (talk) 06:11, 2 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete, completely duplicative. Stilltim has previously been warned for similar things. Ironholds (talk) 09:26, 3 July 2009 (UTC)
