List of famous people who have had a heart attack

This appears to be a list that would be unmaintainable, and this is probably unencyclopedic anyway. The list isn't verifiable either. sunstar nettalk 18:48, 25 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete Well, not only is it unverified and unmaintainable, in it's present form it's also WP:BOLLOCKS as well -- Keanu Reeves? Eva Longoria? Dina 18:50, 25 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Co-nomination - I was about to nominate the article myself. I notified the list creator in the meanwhile; she/he is apparently a new user. YechielMan 18:52, 25 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete unsourced, unmaintainable, unencyclopedic. Unnecessary. Mr.Z-man  talk ¢ Review! 18:57, 25 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete. I find it striking to realize that it is no longer notable to have a heart attack. -- Dhartung | Talk 19:36, 25 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete Possible hoax. Epbr123 21:50, 25 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Speedy Delete not only is it not maintainable, I'm certain it is a hoax; Freema Ageyman and David Tennant, I'm certain have not had heart attacks. --Mhking 22:58, 25 March 2007 (UTC)

 * Delete. Way too broad a topic for a list, seeing as heart attack is quite a common ailment (fatal and non-fatall) and the term "famous people" is so broad this list could contain thousands of names. 23skidoo 04:44, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep and cleanup; this could be a useful list if it was properly and reliably sourced. But how can you have a list of famous heart attack victims and not include Dick Cheney? Crotalus horridus (TALK • CONTRIBS) 20:01, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete - listing people by medical event is generally not a good idea. People do not become notable for having had a heart attack. Otto4711 13:48, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
