[edit] List of heroes

• del a very loosely defined list, bound to grow infinitely: "People traditionally recognized as heroes." Every person ever awarded by a reasonably high award in every country has a right to be here. We already have categories for these. mikka (t) 20:38, 22 December 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. I agree with the nomination. I believe this page should be broken down by nationality and there should be some type of requirements for each article about how to get onto the list, because from what I see now, it will be just a list of names. Remember, one man's hero can be another man's worst nightmare. Zach (Sound Off) 21:04, 22 December 2005 (UTC)
  • Sure. I was very tempted to add Heinz Guderian and especially Erwin Rommel to the list: articles full of admiration, especially Rommel's. mikka (t) 21:22, 22 December 2005 (UTC)

• Delete. Entirely POV. Just remember, there are several million people to whom Osama bin Laden is a hero. Shall we add him to the list? •DanMS 01:11, 23 December 2005 (UTC)
  • Why not? It already contains Mohammad Reza Pahlavi. mikka (t) 01:32, 23 December 2005 (UTC)
  • also it contains "Yitzhak Rabin, Israels prime minister and war hero in Sex-Days War", probably added by a Palestinian :-) mikka (t) 01:34, 23 December 2005 (UTC)
• It's a shame that some anon worked on it for 3 moonths only to get it deleted Renata3 04:54, 23 December 2005 (UTC)
• Delete, then move list of fictional heroes to this location. -Sean Curtin 06:02, 26 December 2005 (UTC)
