Consensus seems to be in favour of keeping this deleted. I would not have closed this after only 6 days if it didn't seem so clear cut to me. Keep deleted. ++Lar: t/c 19:21, 10 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of people with absolute pitch was closed as delete. I don't recognize many of the voters so I assume few regular music editors voted. The reasons given for deletion were "Unencyclopedic, unverifiable" with no explination. There never was any attempt at verification, so I'm not sure how this was determined. Reasons given by voters for deletion include the untrue ("In professional musicians and composers, having absolute pitch is commonplace", "Besides, it's perfect pitch") and indicate that voters had not read that article or were familiar enough with the topic.

This list was a perfect example of how the freedom of web-hosting has allowed the number and versatility of articles to grow. If you keep the article restricted to verifiable people, I struggle to see how it was anti-encyclopedic. A list which isn't comprehensive is still a list. With people like this policing wikipedia, I get very concerned. OK, time to discipline me for adding to the debate.
