- Keep (weakly) and flag for expansion. Most categories, particularly ones such as this, should have an accompanying list. Lists do have the power to do many things that categories cannot, although at present this one is not doing any of those things. -- Visviva 06:17, 16 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- keep per Visvisa, and comment Originally I had no opinion on this AfD until User Deiz deleted the entire article for Fatima Hill under speedy, without putting it up for AfD like a normal polite Wikipedian would do. Dirty pool way to get this AfD to pass. Chris 07:00, 16 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- WP:AGF anyone? Articles that fail WP:CSD don't need to take up community time at AfD. To imply that I'm trying to achieve some kind of victory by "getting this AfD to pass" is insulting in the extreme. "...most days it frustrates the piss out of me"? Yeah.

- Delete. Lists can do things categories can't, true, but, as mentioned above, this list is doing none of these things. There is no content here that couldn't be recreated in ten seconds if someone were to actually write a proper list article for this. As such, the cat is sufficient.
