The result was keep. Primefac (talk) 13:16, 23 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
No need for such per WP:LISTCRUFT. We are not bound to improve such stuff. Greenbörg(talk) 19:10, 5 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
The nomination statement just seems to consist of hurling abuse and then stating the obvious - nobody is bound to do anything on Wikipedia. Could we please have a more policy-compliant reason for deletion for this and the other similar articles nominated? 86.17.222.157 (talk) 19:37, 5 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Really? It only took me a few seconds to find this book published by a university press. 86.17.222.157 (talk) 19:44, 5 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
It says it was the only one of a kind when it was made, and where's the second source that GNG requires? J947(c) (m) 20:00, 5 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Don't be ridiculous. If a whole book is published by a university press about a subject then that is much better than the two random web sites that you seem to want. Have you actually put any thought into the question of whether this topic belongs in an encyclopedia rather than silly Wikilawyering about the number of sources? Please use some common sense. As I said before, I found that source within a few seconds of seeing your first comment above. I'm sure if you spent a few minutes looking further you would find many more sources. 86.17.222.157 (talk) 20:51, 5 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
GNG requires multiple sources. It says that quite clearly. Also, the book is case of notability for Danish Nobel laureates, not the list. Plus, even if that article existed, I would !vote for a merge into that article, as this list is quite short and could easily fit into a bigger article. J947(c) (m) 22:27, 5 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
WP:NOTDUP says, as a conclusion: 'When deciding whether to create or avoid a list, the existence of a category on the same topic is irrelevant. This applies to both sides of the argument.
Categories are what are meant to be navigational aids, and WP:LISTPURP says that The list may be a valuable information source. The list is not a valuable information source as its content is already at List_of_Nobel_laureates_by_country#Denmark. See WP:NOTSTATS—which as a policy surpasses MOS—especially point #3 which states that Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information and Statistics that lack context or explanation can reduce readability and may be confusing; accordingly, statistics should be placed in tables to enhance readability, and articles with statistics should include explanatory text providing context. Also, page views are not a measure of notability.
Same as above; page views are not a measure of notability.
This point is fair, but per my statements above I will not be swinging towards keep based on your !vote.
BTW, I have changed my !vote to 'redirect'. J947( c ) (m) 07:11, 6 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Agree with the two editors above - in the context of navigation, and as per WP:CLTDeathlibrarian (talk) 10:11, 17 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Can make a minimum number at some other place. L3X1(distænt write) 02:42, 22 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
