List of young people in history

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

Fails WP:NOT, as this list is quite indiscriminate. These people have nothing in common, except that they were young, and therefore, I fail to see why this list deserves inclusion.  J- stan  Talk Contribs 02:48, 7 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment List of fetuses!!!    But seriously, Delete. Grab-bag list - dumping ground. MarkBul 02:57, 7 September 2007 (UTC)

 * Strong delete - What happens when a young person is not young anymore? This lsit could incorporate practically every person in the world. It is completely stupid and pointless and unmanagable. Spawn Man 05:06, 7 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete I thought that the fetus thing was a joke! Indiscriminate list on shaky foundations. ~ Eliz 81 (C)  05:19, 7 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete - Indiscriminate list of minimal informational value. --Bongwarrior 06:33, 7 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete - Any list that I could put myself on (yes I've been young, but that's long since history) has serious issues with WP:NOT.  1 redrun  Talk 08:33, 7 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Hmmm, good point. I should add that to my list of AfD reasons to delete. Lets see, list of people with hair, list of people with two eyes.... I think I'm getting the hang of this. :) Spawn Man 09:29, 7 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete although the "List of fetuses" part is pretty hilarious. Everything but the kitchen sink in this one... Andrew Lenahan -  St ar bli nd  12:24, 7 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete. A list that everyone who has ever lived could be put on is quite indiscriminate indeed. shoy  15:50, 7 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete Perhaps mention it on List of Silly Things to Make Lists Of. Thomjakobsen 15:56, 7 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete, indiscriminate information. Subjects have nothing notable in common. -- Beloved Freak  16:39, 7 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Save the Children! Well, categorize, anyway. This doesn't work as an article; it can't decide whether to list persons who didn't get a chance to grow up or persons were famous from childhood onward.  For whatever reason, this is something that actually isn't served by a category... and should be.  I was noticing that the infants Julia Drusilla and Claudia Augusta are in the category of "Roman women".  Granted, they were born before any of us were, but they didn't live terribly long.

 * Delete, too indiscriminate list, definitions are too arbitrary and vague, subject to POV and OR problems. J I P  | Talk 12:47, 8 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete as per WP:NOT. Tbo 157   talk  23:08, 8 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete loads of indiscriminate information. That one is brutal to say the least.--JForget 23:21, 10 September 2007 (UTC)
