[edit] Black and red

This is basically a list of things that are black and red. There doesn't appear to be any encyclopedic value here, the only scope for encylopedic value would appear to be either if it was a substantial list or had clearly explainable meaning. Having the Albanian flag listed because it happens to have black and red colours in it isn't encylopedic. I intend to list a couple of other similar articles. MLA 15:21, 27 February 2006 (UTC)

These are the other similar pages that I am also putting before AfD
Blue and yellow
Green and black
Green and white
Red and green
Red and white
White and blue

These are all part of Category:Colour schemes, I haven't listed the Cat or everything in the cat as there are some the rest appear deserving of articles. MLA 15:33, 27 February 2006 (UTC)

  • Redirect to The Red and the Black --MacRusgail 15:34, 27 February 2006 (UTC)
    But why not to Red and Black or Rouge et Noir? If you're going to do this a dab page is called for. —Blotwell 04:08, 28 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete, Wikipedia is not a directory of everything that is black and red. Obli (Talk)? 17:10, 27 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete, colour-combination-cruft. And yet the most obvious one, Black and blue, isn't even in the category. Foolish! Proto||type 17:20, 27 February 2006 (UTC)

  • Delete all of them. -ikkyu2 (talk) 22:29, 27 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete all of these, they're bizzare and indiscriminate collections of information. -- Mithent 23:53, 27 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete them all, and we need to find out once and for all what makes people think that any series of facts juxtaposed on one page qualifies as an encyclopedic topic. Tuf-Kat 01:00, 28 February 2006 (UTC)
It is the easyness of creating such garbage. Pavel Vozenilek 06:54, 28 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Kill it per nom. Buchanan-Hermit™..CONTRIBS..SPEAK!. 06:40, 28 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete all. Pavel Vozenilek 06:54, 28 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete all as colorcruft. Suggest deleting Black and white (colours) too. -- Krash (Talk) 18:07, 28 February 2006 (UTC)
    • Comment I didn't nominate that one primarily because it seems to me that there may be a possible cleaned up article on that where I don't think that to be the case with any of the rest. MLA 18:09, 28 February 2006 (UTC)
      • Understandable. -- Krash (Talk) 19:06, 28 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete Of course, and I didn't see my toothpaste listed at its color combination. Carlossuarez46 18:11, 2 March 2006 (UTC)
