List of red-haired characters cast as People of Color for film or television

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

A non-notable list which also fails WP:NOTDIRECTORY point 3. Giraffer (talk·contribs) 07:55, 17 September 2022 (UTC)

 * Delete Non-notable, search finds nothing to support this arbitrary list meeting GNG. Cowlibob (talk) 08:54, 17 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete per WP:NOTDIRECTORY. Textbook example of a non-encyclopedic cross-categorisation.  Billets Mauves €500 12:35, 17 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete - trivial and non-encyclopaedic cross-categorisation Spiderone (Talk to Spider) 14:23, 17 September 2022 (UTC)
 * This would make a fascinating essay somewhere, perhaps the nucleus of a thesis, but yeah, it doesn't belong here unless someone finds where an RS has already made this connection. Jclemens (talk) 19:53, 17 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete WP:POINTy thing done in the wake of a few folks mad about the live-action Little Mermaid having a PoC rather than the 'correct' type of white person. I will note the sandbox time spent on this was before the trailer release so I will AGF a little, but this does seem to be more of a 'call-out' list than a factual one.

 * Delete: I doubt someone would need this list for anything, really. Asparagusus   (interaction)  01:39, 18 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete - I agree with BilletsMauves, this is exactly the type of cross-categorization specifically mentioned in WP:NOTDIRECTORY as inappropriate, and I couldn't find any sources to support this type of list so it fails WP:GNG. - Aoidh (talk) 02:28, 19 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete. This is just too indiscriminate as far as data goes. It also dances around a general topic - that of race related controversy with film casting without actually addressing the topic, but that's more of an aside.

 * Delete: Can someone just close this already? We all know what it was designed to do (and such a thing isn't helpful to the project), and it wholly lacks any sort of citations. Snowball it already. Why? I Ask (talk) 14:21, 21 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete. Too specific of a list without reliable sources talking about this particular thing and per WP:POINT. (Mermaid mentioned above and some older reddit discussions I found). Skynxnex (talk) 15:12, 22 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete - Nonsensical directory article. HumanBodyPiloter5 (talk) 12:40, 23 September 2022 (UTC)
