List of fictional sociopaths

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

Delete - indiscriminate unmaintainable directory of unrelated characters with POV inclusion criteria so broad that almost any antagonist would qualify. Otto4711 19:45, 1 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete the inclusion criteria are, as the the nom said, too broad and also too subjective. Especially: "impulsivity", "irritability", and "irresponsibility." Anybody with a bad attitude might fit those criteria; it doesn't necessarily mean they have a personality disorder. The article is totally unsourced, and given the subjective nature of the criteria, it is likely WP:OR. Mr.Z-man  talk ¢ 19:55, 1 May 2007 (UTC)

 * Delete A list over every wacky antagonist ever conceived is impossible to make something encyclopedic of. The list would be huge and of no use. Pax:Vobiscum 20:34, 1 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete - Basically requires OR. -- Auto ( talk / contribs ) 23:28, 1 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete unworkable list; purely POV, does 3 of the list = sociopath anywhere else but in that article in WP? Carlossuarez46 00:06, 2 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete List is original research. Sociopath is a subjective term, so the problem can't be fixed. Jay32183 20:45, 2 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete - POV and possibly OR. Not sourced.  The Hippie  01:35, 3 May 2007 (UTC)
