[edit] List of Christmas characters

Redundant list, information is served better by Category:Christmas characters. There appears to be no added value by having a random list of fictional and non-fictional characters associated with Christmas. Some POV concerns have been raised a while ago regarding the applicability of the phrase characters, I'm not nominating for that reason though you may want to consider it.

• Keep. There's no reason NOT to keep this list. Real people can be considered characters, too. Logophile 13:47, 8 March 2006 (UTC)
• Move to Category. I'm not a big fan of lists, but this list seems interesting enough to be kept. Fetofs ^Hello! 14:00, 8 March 2006 (UTC)
• Delete. Most "Christmas characters" can be easily found via Christmas movie (which probably should be kept, maybe renamed) and in other Christmas-related articles. I don't see this serving as a useful list. PJM 14:10, 8 March 2006 (UTC)
• Delete. "Christmas characters" just isn't a clear description of anything. JPD (talk) 17:21, 8 March 2006 (UTC)
• Delete, as per JPD and the already present Category argument. Mallocks 20:05, 8 March 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per above. Eusebeus 12:10, 9 March 2006 (UTC)
