List of people by number of countries visited

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

WP:LISTCRUFT. This is a conglomeration of members of the Travelers' Century Club and various high-profile diplomats, and is fairly clearly incomplete. I admit that WP:IDONTLIKEIT, but I don't feel that an article on people who the TCC claims have visited 190+ countries could stand, and the version with a variety of diplomats is even worse than that. power~enwiki ( π, ν ) 05:23, 20 December 2018 (UTC)


 * Keep as editing can fix the issues. There are clearly more than 190 countries and more than one way to count places visited. The people who have reached the top of the major lists (TCC, MTP) should be listed.  Trimming back to people that have articles and/or top the MTP list would be good.  There is regular media coverage of extreme travel so the topic is encyclopedic. Legacypac (talk) 06:25, 20 December 2018 (UTC)

 * Delete per nom. I don't think there is any reliable method of knowing exactly how many countries a person has visited. Ajf773 (talk) 01:15, 24 December 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete. "There are no official criteria of what constitutes a visit" and "there is great debate as to how many countries there are in the world"??? Could the criteria be any fuzzier? Clarityfiend (talk) 08:17, 24 December 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete. User:Clarityfiend sums it up best. This list is too arbitrary, and is not encyclopedic. Ross Finlayson (talk) 16:43, 24 December 2018 (UTC)
