List of war heroes
Was tagged for speedy deletion by CHawke as a repost of List of people known as war heroes (AfD discussion) but it's not the same. Probert notes in the edit history that the creator, Swedenman is a known troll on Swedish Wikipedia. Regardless, it's an inherently POV list that's unreferenced.  howch e  ng   {chat} 18:48, 2 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete - Speculative and POV. No guidelines. Theoretically you can say Hitler is a war hero -- † Ðy§ep§ion † 19:02, 2 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment this list would seem to have a lot in common with Hero Jcuk 20:56, 2 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete, inherently POV. Crotalus horridus (TALK • CONTRIBS) 21:22, 2 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete, POV no single definition of "hero" can be applied that meets NPOV --C Hawke 07:55, 3 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. Probert 11:28, 3 February 2006 (UTC) (Yes, Swedenman is a troll. He is identical with Filipman on Swedish Wikipedia. He has been blocked 6 times for rabid edit wars and abuse of other wikipedians.)
 * Delete - POV by definition. --Latinus (talk (el:)) 17:07, 3 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete another speculative list; even if some agreed-upon source decided to name its top 100 war heroes, we ought to delete that as well, per all the lists of "best songs", "most annoying songs", "worst dictators" floating around the AfD pages. Carlossuarez46 23:57, 3 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete... completely POV, among other things. --Kinu 08:12, 4 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. I would add that having lexicographically sorted list of names for several millenia is not very useful. Pavel Vozenilek 22:31, 4 February 2006 (UTC)
