List of Rajputs
- List of Rajputs (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View log)
Appears to be yet another virtually unsourced and verifiable caste list. Misplaced Pages is not a directory, nor is it an indiscriminate collection of information. This is practically the same as List of Nairs, which was deleted in Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/List of Nairs. Coredesat 08:21, 12 August 2007 (UTC)
- Delete, an unsalvageable mess like the others. Punkmorten 08:46, 12 August 2007 (UTC)
- Keep, we have List of Poles and List of Muslims, why not Rajputs? User:Abdullah_mk
- Comment WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS. --Coredesat 20:08, 12 August 2007 (UTC)
- Isn't this nomination based on WP:OTHERSTUFFDOESNTEXIST? Kappa 00:42, 13 August 2007 (UTC)
- I would like to know if Coredesat would actually like to delete list of Poles, or if not, how this list is different from that one. Kappa 01:21, 13 August 2007 (UTC)
- That list is also problematic in that it would be far better served by a category, but that isn't the question for this AFD. It will need to be nominated separately. --Coredesat 02:06, 13 August 2007 (UTC)
- When are you planning to do that? Kappa 08:30, 13 August 2007 (UTC)

- Delete. Misplaced Pages is not an indiscriminate collection of information. utcursch | talk 07:42, 13 August 2007 (UTC)
- Keep - It seems a harmless list to me. Su8ch lists are useful as a measn of identifying articles that should be written, even though it is a list with names (rahter than red links). Peterkingiron 23:11, 13 August 2007 (UTC)
- See WP:HARMLESS. As you point out, the list doesn't have red links, so it's not useful for identifying articles that should be written. Besides, we have Misplaced Pages:Requested articles for that purpose. utcursch | talk 06:14, 14 August 2007 (UTC)

- Like Utcursch said, see WP:HARMLESS. The question is what value does this list have, per WP:LIST? Actually there aren't any red links, but I guess the unlinked names are still useful for development, they tell peolple who they should be writing about and can be quickly turned into links after the article is created.
