List of some very famous people of Modern Times
This list is incoherent, and can never become coherent and encyclopedic. 172 | Talk 09:54, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
 * The problem is that it can include about every other person on Wikipedia from 15th century onwards. So by all means, delete and suggest the creator to use more appropriate means to categorize articles. - Mike Rosoft 11:05, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. Totally arbitrary list. David | Talk 11:07, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete as listcruft. Feezo (Talk) 11:18, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete per Mike. Was cut from Modern Times (history), but will probably not be missed there, either. Sandstein 13:09, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete, listcurft. --Ter e nce Ong 13:36, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete as per nom.    Dl yo ns 493   Ta lk  16:20, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete, doubly vague. Gazpacho 18:32, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Abstain, I "cut from Modern Times (history), but will probably not be missed there." (see above)  Paul Martin 19:29, 17 March 2006 (UTC)

 * Delete- Useless list. Reyk 22:37, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Speedy Delete - Totally Redundant.Tombride 23:13, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
 * I'd like to add; "Actual Modern Times." Ha. Tombride 00:50, 20 March 2006 (UTC)


 * Delete Useless listcruft. In order to be meaningful, would require thousands of names (19 people hardly covers the 20th century) and would be basically everyone you've ever heard of, and a whole lot you haven't. Fan1967 23:41, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete per Tombride --Ugur Basak 01:17, 18 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Strong Delete. L.I.S.T.C.R.U.F.T.  Dei z io  01:44, 18 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete listcruft --Khoikhoi 03:57, 18 March 2006 (UTC)
 * delete. hopelessly vague - and with its current capitalisation of Modern Times it would list only Charlie Chaplin and Paulette Goddard. Grutness...wha?  04:41, 18 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete as way too generic. -- JLaTondre 15:13, 18 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete, if taken seriously, it would foster conflict among editors. Walter Siegmund (talk) 05:02, 21 March 2006 (UTC)
