The result was   delete, not a snowball's chance. Longstanding precedent establishes that we don't house memorial lists of non-notable people who died in public calamities. - Smerdis of Tlön (talk) 14:18, 12 August 2009 (UTC)

List of people died from swine flu in india

Oh, my God, no. Besides the fact that this list is absolutely unsourced, "first do no harm" should be considered here. What benefit comes from a list like this, other than to bring pain to their family members? This is a WP:NOT violation, in that it's an indiscriminate list. And soon, there would be articles with lists from every country. Who then was a gentleman? (talk) 05:24, 12 August 2009 (UTC)

 * Delete. For the love of Darwin and common sense. An early snow close would be appropriate. - SpacemanSpiff Calvin&#8225;Hobbes 06:57, 12 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Strong Delete as per all that has been written above. McMarcoP (talk) 08:07, 12 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Strong delete - per Wp:NOT, Wp:N, Wp:OR and probably another half dozen or so guidelines. DitzyNizzy (aka Jess) | (talk to me) | (What I've done)  09:50, 12 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete. See WP:LISTCRUFT, and the fact that it is not sourced, not to mention the title of the article itself is a grammatical eyesore.  I hesitated to nominate for AfD when I first saw this article and decided to add the mergeto tag, however, in reading the above, I've confirmed that I should trust my instincts.  --Tckma (talk) 13:05, 12 August 2009 (UTC)
