• Delete, useless trivia. Alba 16:01, 9 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete as trivial cruft. Someone had way too much time on his or her hands. RGTraynor 16:08, 9 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete Perfect example of an indiscriminate collection of information. --SubSeven 20:55, 9 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete another "List of songs whose title is something completely arbitrary". Arkyan 21:08, 9 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Weak Keep I find the list interesting. Unfortunately the article is an orphan without logical interlinking articles in truth. I don't believe it to be cruft, but rather information. I only question its comprehensiveness TonyTheTiger (talk/cont/bio) 21:32, 9 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Re:"I find the list interesting" - please see WP:ILIKEIT. Punkmorten 23:50, 9 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Instead of saying I like it. I should say I find it as interesting as:

• List of bands named after places
• List of band names with date references
• List of eponymous albums
• List of band name etymologies TonyTheTiger (talk/cont/bio) 17:49, 10 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete - the actual lists are getting sillier than the hypothetical "worst-case" scenario lists. --Action Jackson IV 21:32, 9 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete, not only is it an indiscriminate list, but it's inaccurate: many of these "full names" are people's pseudonyms. Krimpet 01:51, 10 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep per TonyTheTiger --Infrangible 19:08, 10 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete per nomination. If this is kept, I'm going to put up a list of songs whose titles are composed of more than 43% vowels. (N.B. I'm totally bluffing).Sarcasticidealist 23:27, 10 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete. Arbitrary and indiscriminate information. Pure trivia. WjBscribe 03:33, 11 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete per nom. This is about as indiscriminate as it gets (as are the examples noted several paragraphs above). --Butseriouslyfolks 07:35, 11 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Comment: I think it's really too bad we don't have a Wikitrivia for articles like this. Not interesting to me, but it's not hard to imagine how it can be interesting to other people. None of the articles TonyTheTiger names seem encyclopedic either. Noroton 23:36, 13 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
