List of predictions made by Sylvia Browne
Doesn't seem particularly encyclopedic. Does a list of predictions by a psychic qualify as encyclopedic? I tend to believe no. Further, I wonder if having this list of her predictions violates any of her copyright on the lists (like having the Newsweek Top 1200 High Schools was found to be copyright infringement I believe). Delete as unencyclopedic. Metros232 19:52, 25 August 2006 (UTC)

weak keep maybe merge? the more notable ones with her main article? I think this was broken off from the main article when it had gotten too large. Also since the list isnt taken from any one place there isn't any copyright issue. Since Brown is a notable psychic a people pay attention to her predictions certainly some of them have notability, such as those she made on Larry King Live about the mining accident (but I think that's covered in her main article anyways).

 * Comment: The entire page is not taken from any one place, but the individual breakdowns do appear to be: the first section, the second section, and the last section. I found the 3rd section in a blog but can't find an original source for that.  Metros232 20:10, 25 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Ok, subject to that, take the most notable few and move them into the main article on Browne. Delete the rest. JoshuaZ 20:13, 25 August 2006 (UTC)

It is "encyclopdic" its a list of predictions that are believed to have been made, its information. That's what an encyclopedia is for information, reference. So if you wanted to be informed on Sylvia you could "refer" to this article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.18.56.208 (talk • contribs)
 * Strong Delete, predictions bad by a "psychic"? Especially one that are almost all incorrect? Get rid of it. TJ Spyke 21:50, 25 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. Wikipedia is not a crystal ball. Sorry, I couldn't resist. But I still predict "delete" for this non-encyclopedic article per the nominator. Agent 86 23:35, 25 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete Sylvia Browne is no Nostradamus, no matter what Montel Williams might think. Danny Lilithborne 01:08, 26 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete These predictions are completely inane. Allon FambrizziAllon Fambrizzi
 * Delete. Amusing to see that she can't even get 50% right, but the list is not encyclopaedic. Ohconfucius 09:50, 29 August 2006 (UTC)
