 * Keep—Valid list per WP:SALAT. Regards, RJH (talk) 01:56, 26 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep-Flawed reasoning by nom. This list is NOT a so-called Linkfarm. The only external links are on the Northland Region hospitals. WP:LINKFARM specifically excludes lists such as this one (see point 2). Turning to WP:NOTDIR, this policy does not cover a list like this. This list is not a directory as described by this policy. Additionally, this is part of an established tree, see Category:Lists of hospitals by country. Beeswaxcandle (talk) 05:23, 26 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep A list on a notable topic and part of the bigger scheme of Category:Lists of hospitals by country.  Lugnuts  (talk) 10:31, 26 November 2011 (UTC)

 * Stubify systematic confusion between: (a) hospitals and the organisations that run them and (b) hospitals and their physical site. Needs sources for claims about hospitals that don't have articles. Stuartyeates (talk) 19:30, 26 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep – A discriminate, useful list for an encyclopedia.
 * This article qualifies for inclusion under WP:SALAT in the Manual of style for stand-alone lists
 * It's a functional part of Category:Lists of hospitals by country.

 * Keep Hospitals are notable institutions and such lists perfectly valid and accepted on wikipedia. This should be kept and articles attempted to be created on the most notable ones.♦ Dr. Blofeld  09:43, 27 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep Well-defined and specific subject that meets the standards for a standalone list, provides sources, serves as a reference for the purpose, linking to existing articles and serving as an impetus to create articles for those that don't yet exist. Alansohn (talk) 21:39, 27 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep Another bad nomination. No valid reason given for deletion.  Meets all requirements for a list article.   D r e a m Focus  20:08, 28 November 2011 (UTC)
