[edit] Wikipedia:Wikipedians/Northrop High School

This nomination includes the following pages:

Wikipedia:Wikipedians/Northrop High School (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)

This is a single-member list of Wikipedians who attended a specific high school. The sole user listed on the page has not edited since July 2005. (see contribs)

Wikipedia:Wikipedians/Panama (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)

This is a single-member list of Wikipedians living in or born in Panama. It has been replaced by Category:Wikipedians in Panama and/or Category:Panamanian Wikipedians.

Wikipedia:Wikipedians/Researchers (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)

This is a single-member list of Wikipedians who are researchers. In a sense, any Wikipedian who contributes encyclopedic content to articles is a "researcher".

Wikipedia:Wikipedians/Silesia (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)

Redundant to Category:Wikipedians in Silesia

Wikipedia:Wikipedians/The Netherlands (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)

Redundant to Category:Wikipedians in the Netherlands

• Delete all per precedent. No need for these specifics.  hmwith  talk 20:09, 6 August 2007 (UTC)
• Delete all, with the possible exception of Wikipedia:Wikipedians/Researchers. At first glance, it makes sense that all Wikipedians are "researchers" by default; however, there are some users who specialize in copyediting, and some in sourcing, for example, and the "researcher" title is slightly more adequate to the latter than the former. In a way, it can be something similar to the WikiProject League of Copyeditors, but for those interested in sourcing. Titoxd^{(?!? - cool stuff)} 06:51, 7 August 2007 (UTC)
  • I actually hadn't thought of that. Still, I think a category (perhaps Category:Wikipedian researchers) would be more appropriate considering that user categories have almost entirely replaced user lists (and considering that this list currently has only one editor listed). — Black Falcon ^(Talk) 23:04, 7 August 2007 (UTC)
