Indiscriminate list. There's no evidence that "people above 130" or "people below 130" or any other page is a distinguishing characteristics other than the current oldest person ever was 122 so this is all claims that are eight years more (and I'm presuming as said to be not real). The contents are basically a merger of an assortment from Longevity myths and Longevity claims. Ricky81682 (talk) 06:33, 31 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Maybe delete as although this is a challenging one, this is not a widespread and confirmed topic with most of these occurring thousands years ago and there's not even much information here. At best, this would be best mentioned elsewhere although I can imagine someone eventually suggesting a separate article. It seems most of the previous AfD commenters are not active so I'm notifying the only still active one . SwisterTwister   talk  06:45, 31 August 2015 (UTC)

 * Merge to Longevity myths. At the previous AFD in 2011 I noted that those two articles are redundant, and that still seems to be the case. 'Longevity myths' is probably the one to keep as it has a more general scope, and the claims listed in this article can be merged in. (Or at least some of them: I'm not sure we need to list every single person claimed to have lived to an unnatural age, but the general topic is clearly notable.)

 * Merge to Longevity myths per Robofish and nom. Ca2james (talk) 19:04, 31 August 2015 (UTC)
