Very Incomplete lists
Nearly empty page linked to only by Very Incomplete List, which is also listed at WP:TfD. Probably speediable, but I don't see a particular CSD that would apply. --Farix (Talk) 00:36, 27 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete as useless. "Incomplete List" is too vague a criteria. meshach 01:05, 27 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep there are lists that are terribly incomplete. In a hypothetical situation, if the list of U.S. presidents only has a couple presidents, and the editor doesn't who the rest are, so he would put that template and link to the page. WooyiTalk to me? 03:18, 27 May 2007 (UTC)
 * We already have WikiProject Lists for that. So what does a nearly empty project page suppose to add? --Farix (Talk) 11:47, 27 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete. While some lists are more incomplete than others, we gain little by less-visible, non-standard places to list them based on arbitrary cutoffs.  Similarly, we don't have Really Stubby stubs.  Serpent&#39;s Choice 09:35, 27 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Actually we used to -- see Substub. Some of the reasoning used in the permanent mothballing of that term might also apply here.  -- Visviva 06:31, 29 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete. The classification of a list as "very incomplete" is unnecessary and unclear. The dichotomy between a complete and incomplete list is clear: either a list includes all persons, events, or objects that meet its inclusion criteria, or it does not. What is the definition of "very incomplete" (or, conversely, "very complete")? -- Black Falcon (Talk) 02:02, 28 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete. The philosopher in me wants to BJAODN it as a self-referential joke. The "very incomplete list" is itself a very incomplete list. Yechiel Man  02:26, 28 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete. Vague and redundant. Matchups 02:33, 28 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete & BJAODN - No need to classify a list as very incomplete, though I agree with Yechiel, maybe BJAODN due to the irony. Greeves (talk • contribs • reviews) 21:49, 29 May 2007 (UTC)
