This is basically a copy of Wikipedia:Requested articles, but it's not useful. Creating a list is almost trivial, compared to creating an article. And the page has proven to be a cruft-catcher. If a list is really needed, and an editor doesn't know how to create it (?!?), he/she can simply ask for help at the relevant WikiProject. -- John Broughton (♫♫) 16:18, 1 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hasn't been used for anything real yet, but it only seems to have been there a week. DGG (talk) 18:33, 1 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Well, several of the suggestions were real - bad ideas, but real - List of ice cream flavors, for example. Another editor deleted that suggestion. And I just restored another suggestion by reverting some (old) vandalism. -- John Broughton (♫♫) 22:21, 1 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep, clean up, and work on improving it. - DiligentTerrier (and friends) 22:49, 1 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep, give it a shot. -- Ned Scott 05:24, 2 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep. Lists aren't the same as articles, and shouldn't be treated as such. There's really no real reason to delete this; it serves a valid purpose. Celarnor ^{Talk to me} 06:47, 2 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep. Why not, really. So long as we don't have articles requested such as Lists of transsexual stockbrokers in the United States of Filipino-Korean-Irish origin (with no offense intended to Filipino-Korean-Irishmen), I think this will catch on nicely.--WaltCip (talk) 18:51, 2 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• keep as it is useful (sorry for the bad reason). Though some of the requests are A) articles not lists B) Silliness. If this ever caught on, it can be of as much use as WP:RA. Mm40|Talk|Sign|Review 00:52, 4 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• keep Useful for those wanting a list that doesn't exist. Right now its not being used properly though. -- Coasttocoast (talk) 01:33, 5 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete. Anything that might go here that is encyclopedic would be better placed on Requested Articles. KleenupKrew (talk) 11:31, 6 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
