[edit] List of fictional physicians

Does a list of fictional physicians have any relevance to anything? No. Delete now. It does not belong on wikipedia. --Differentgravy 12:12, 3 August 2005 (UTC)

• Keep It gets 165 google hits. 'nuf said 212.101.64.4 16:20, 3 August 2005 (UTC)
  • So what? "Pink Fluffy Bunnies" gets over 3700 hits on Google, and I made that phrase up just now. Delete, the list verges on pointlessness. Xaa 18:04, 3 August 2005 (UTC)
• Delete - relevance. A good score of people have added to this, but the only link:to on Google appears to be someone else's copy of the same list.
  • Sorry, new. Eldereft 17:55, 3 August 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. Seems odd to be accept the relevance of a list of fictional military people, a list of fictional postal employees, a list of fictional alcoholics, a list of fictional computers, and even a list of fictional characters with one eye but say that a list of fictional physicians is irrelevant.

  • Comment You're right - if someone nominates a list of fictional characters with one eye, I'll probably vote it off the island, too. ;-) Xaa 18:45, 3 August 2005 (UTC)
    • One-eyed characters are very important in fiction, and have been so since the times of ancient Greece. CanadianCaesar 21:32, 3 August 2005 (UTC)
• Strong keep per Jason. Y0u (Y0ur talk page) (Y0ur contributions) 18:39, August 3, 2005 (UTC)
• Keep The deletion of this article shouldn't even be up for discussion. D. J. Bracey (talk) 18:58, 3 August 2005 (UTC)
• speedy keep; this nomination doesn't appear to contend that the article satisfies Wikipedia's deletion policy. Brighterorange 19:24, 3 August 2005 (UTC)
  • The nomination is according to policy, and the given criteria aren't all-inclusive. WP:FAITH. Also, keep but convert to category. Radiant_>|< 13:48, August 4, 2005 (UTC)
• keep keepy keep. Splendid wiki list article Robinh 19:41, 3 August 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. Its purpose is clearly defined in the title. It's interesting, if a little long and cluttered up with General Hospital characters. Just needs a bit of a tidy-up. Flowerparty ^talk 20:31, 3 August 2005 (UTC)
• Delete as fitting WP:DEL criterion of "Completely idiosyncratic non-topic". The Literate Engineer 20:38, 3 August 2005 (UTC)
• Keep Agree it can be cut down a little and defined a little better, but it works and can be of some use. Notable characters included. CanadianCaesar 21:32, 3 August 2005 (UTC)
• Keep some lists about fictional ... (fill in) may be irrelevant, but this one isn't and neither are the others mentioned in this VFD. - Mgm|^(talk) 23:33, August 3, 2005 (UTC)
• Keep take an aspirin and lie down. JamesBurns 05:33, 7 August 2005 (UTC)
