[edit] List of prominent visionaries

POV anyone? I just can't wait until someone adds L. Ron Hubbard, Lyndon LaRouche and even David Icke to the list. David | Talk 10:59, 11 August 2005 (UTC)

• And Jimbo Wales (he said sycophantically) - otherwise delete --Doc (?) 11:40, 11 August 2005 (UTC)

• Delete with a vengence. This topic is hopelessly POV and will probably start a few POV wars. (How can you include/not include Einstein, Ghandi, Muhammed, etc.) ManoaChild 11:50, 11 August 2005 (UTC)
• Delete Arthur C Clarke? Why did he live in Sri lanka?--Porturology 12:29, 11 August 2005 (UTC)
• I have a prominent vision to Delete. --Several Times 14:40, 11 August 2005 (UTC)
• Delete, as per Manoa Child.--Frag 14:57, August 11, 2005 (UTC)
• Delete per above. Though I must agree that Jimbo Wales deserves a spot on the list. ral315 16:24, August 11, 2005 (UTC)
• delete the criteria for listing is too subjective. --Tim Pope 17:12, 11 August 2005 (UTC)
• Delete.—Encephalon | ζ | Σ 17:29:20, 2005-08-11 (UTC)
• Delete, but at least it let me find Finn McCleave and Jason Po-Tiger. Anything that helps clean crap out of Wikipedia has served some purpose.--Scimitar ^parley 17:36, 11 August 2005 (UTC)
• Delete unless I'm added to the list. I like how there weren't any "prominent visionaries" for ten centuries. JDoorjam 20:19, 11 August 2005 (UTC)
• Delete, only slightly better than having List of people suffering of diarrhea. Pavel Vozenilek 02:57, 12 August 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. "Visionary" is severely not objectively quantifiable, so much so that we probably couldn't even get a good list out of "People who are widely considered visionaries" or the like. -- Antaeus Feldspar 00:43, 13 August 2005 (UTC)
• Delete Don't forget Marc Emery... / Peter ^Isotalo 01:17, 14 August 2005 (UTC)
• Delete - Edit war bait and POV galore, all supporters of just about any kind of group, no matter how small, would try to include their founders - Skysmith 10:33, 15 August 2005 (UTC)
• Delete This is the sort of thing that should be a category if anything at all, unmaintainable as an article.--Gorgonzilla 18:01, 18 August 2005 (UTC)
