List of largest UK law firms
A decision was recently made to delete List of law firms (see discussion at Articles for deletion/List of law firms (2nd nomination)), and it seems that the logical next step is to consider for deletion each of the sub-lists that were created under that article, including this one.

 * Delete For all the reasons set out in the discussion relation to deletion of the primary list - it serves no purpose that is not already covered by Category:United Kingdom-based law firms, and it is just an invitation for lawyers to spam. Legis 08:06, 18 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Weak keep - List is solely based on size, and includes some data on the practice areas of the firms. These features are not replacable by categories,  GRBerry 15:08, 21 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep Need expanding to not simply be a raw list, however has clear criteria for inclusion (even if possibly a copyvio?), and most of the firms listed are rednames, making this only doable as a list (and very handy to point out needed content) LinaMishima 15:55, 21 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep useful list, by size excludes all the mini- and wannabe- law firms; we have lists of longest bridges, tallest women, yadda-yadda-yadda, that all add to the categorization scheme. Carlossuarez46 20:17, 22 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep size criterion guards against indiscriminate addition of nn firms and annotations of turnover provide added value Eluchil404 02:27, 24 August 2006 (UTC)
