List of supervillainesses

 * — (View AfD)

I am completing an incomplete nomination. Abstain Iamunknown 19:56, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete as nominator - originally part of mass nom at Articles for deletion/List of fictional actors. These are indiscriminate lists drawing largely unrelated articles from a wide variety of genres, difficult if not impossible to maintain and will never aproach completeness. Also an inappropriate sex-based classification, no need to segregate supervillainesses from male supervillains. Otto4711 23:35, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep Possibly a little too excessively broad, but it is reasonable organized.  FrozenPurpleCube 23:47, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Speedy close. This is a relisting and lacks an explanation for deletion. Keep as per extensive discussion at Articles for deletion/List of fictional actors. -- User:Docu
 * The only reason this is a "relisting" is because someone took it upon him/herself to break up an existing nomination. It is disingenuous in the extreme to suggest closure on that basis and quite frankly your cherry-picking the listings you want speedily closed does not speak well of your motivation. The reason for the nomination is right there in my comments as nominator and stating that there is no explanation is just flat out not true. As for the discussion at the previous nom, a number of those voicing opinions called for keep/close only because of the mass nature of the nomination. It's ridiculous to claim that those procedural !votes constitute consensus on every article individually. Otto4711 05:06, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
 * It may not be a relisting. See this subpage for an explanation &mdash; Iamunknown 05:20, 6 January 2007 (UTC)


 * Speedy close without prejudice. Nominator gives no rationale for this proposal. —Psychonaut 12:42, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
 * The nom does give a rationale; see Otto's first post &mdash; Iamunknown 05:20, 6 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep - why delete?  Insane  phantom   (please comment on my Editor Review!)  12:45, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Convert to category, that's what categories are for. A conversion is no loss of information.  &gt; R a d i a n t &lt;  16:09, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep - why get rid of information? Either keep it as is, or re-structure it. Jackytar 22:11, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Further to my vote, I would suggest that it be re-organized alphabetically, as it appears the lists of male and female superheroes are so organized. This would provide improved consistency. Might also be a good idea to cross-reference the various superhero/heroine/villain/villainess lists to each other. Jackytar 22:16, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep. All these groupings are valid and useful as lists.DGG 03:49, 9 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete this list is essentially indiscriminate and is better served by a category in any case. Note that if it were reorganized alphabetically it would be essentially identical to the category.  Eluchil404 11:05, 11 January 2007 (UTC)
