Despite the fact that every name is a blue link, surely this falls under the category of Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information. This list is already available on the web on the Congress website surely. How many other lists of votes are there in Wikipedia for any legislative assembly? Is this bill more important than all others to justify inclusion? (The edit summary and talk page fail to state that this list has been chopped out of the Partial-Birth Abortion Ban Act article. See discussion at Talk:Partial-Birth Abortion Ban Act#List of Representatives and Senators unnecessary.) -- RHaworth 07:43, 21 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete per WP:NOT. This law is notable, how each Congressman voted regarding it is not. TJ Spyke 09:15, 21 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete, violates WP:NOT. Can't see any value in having the list here. Hut 8.5 11:10, 21 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete- per Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information. Thunderwing 15:50, 21 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete More of a source document than an article. Postlebury 20:38, 21 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete. Congress's website already lists every vote by every Congressman on their website (here's the House's for this bill). Wikipedia is not the place for this information. Krimpet (talk/review) 00:42, 22 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete per all the above. John Vandenberg 10:52, 22 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete. This stuff should either go in the main article on the subject, or should not be at Wikipedia for the reasons described above.Ferrylodge 20:25, 22 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete This information is important and should be included in the article on the bill. All information can be found elsewhere, Wikipedia is a place to share such informationMantion 03:32, 26 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
