List of former Nazi Party members

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Duplication, List of Nazis with subpages, and List of Nazi Party leaders and officials, have the same purpose. Marcocapelle (talk) 07:12, 11 March 2017 (UTC)
 * I say keep. This article is about those that left the party because of a change in mind. Herman Rauschning is a good example. Just keep it. People put a lot of effort into this page. When I see "Articles for Deletion" it is about "making a name for oneself". This is about destroying the hard work of others. Let the article stand. I'm tired of the endless battles on Wikipedia.

 * Delete A subset of the List of Nazis which seems unnecessary. Maybe these are Nazis someone found to be more interesting than the others. The fact that someone worked hard on an article is not a reason found in policies or guidelines for keeping it. Edison (talk) 15:10, 11 March 2017 (UTC)
 * Comment It is pretty odd to claim these Nazis left the party because of a " change of mind" when the list includes Hitler, Goering and other diehards. Edison (talk) 18:31, 11 March 2017 (UTC)


 * Delete - this is a partial, redundant list of information already provided elsewhere in Wiki. See WP:REDUNDANTFORK. Also, contrary to earlier comment, there doesn't seem to be a rationale for including some Nazis but not others. Smacks of POV. Glendoremus (talk) 18:15, 12 March 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete During the Third Reich, membership in the Nazi Party was effectively mandatory for civil servants and any prominent people. I do not see how this list, which would include thousands of names of people who have articles, is helpful.  Also, most of the lead is about criminals and spies, implying that the people in the list were involved in criminal activity or spying.  TFD (talk) 00:01, 13 March 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete - as my nomination. CAPTAIN RAJU  (✉)   21:30, 18 March 2017 (UTC)
