Can't be entirely sure this meets WP:STANDALONE. It seems like it could be a standalone topic, but then again... there's the blanket policy of WP:NOTEVERYTHING and WP:NOTDIR. ~ Preceding post created by larsona //Talk// 04:07, 17 November 2015 (UTC)


 * Keep: Not really sure why this should be deleted. The topic seems notable. Is there any sourcing issue? There are often lists of popular names in news; can't they be used as sources? -- Taku (talk) 04:27, 17 November 2015 (UTC)

 * Keep: This is an informative list, there is no reason to delete this list.-- Human 3015   TALK   10:41, 17 November 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep: For people interested in onomastics this is a very valuable page, and a very good example for the power of Wikipedia: No single person alone would be able to locate all the sources for all the countries, and tirelessly so year after year. Rbrunner7 (talk) 19:35, 17 November 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep: the way the tables are laid out looks a bit confusing in my opinion, but article style has no bearing on deletion. LjL (talk) 21:03, 17 November 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep: The article is useful and notable and sourced with multiple sources. I have no idea why it has been nominated for deletion. Quite ridiculous. --Bookworm857158367 (talk) 00:29, 18 November 2015 (UTC)
