List of Japanese Nobel laureates

(View log) There is already a list of Nobel Laureates by Country-List of Nobel laureates by country,so,it's quiet unnecessary to create a new article of Nobel Laureates by a country.Give a proper reason why it should not be deleted.A previous nomination for deletion of the page can be found here.Thank You.--Skashifakram (talk) 07:21, 4 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you very much.Skashifakram (talk) 07:56, 4 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Procedural Keep. The previous debate ended on March 23rd, and the result was No Consensus. In closing the debate, Admin Sandstein commented thus: " The nominator may want to examine the discussion to determine whether it might make more sense to nominate some of these separately." This nomination, which includes three of the articles nominated in that debate and one additional one dealing with Welsh laureates, does not do that. My recommendation would be to bring each of these articles separately, so that the merits of one can be evaluated without the others complicating the debate.

Unlike the previous nomination,this nomination is strongly supported by WP:BUNDLE,since for every nomination,the criteria is same,viz.,there is already a List of Nobel laureates by country,Thank you!Skashifakram (talk) 21:27, 4 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah! This should be good. All based on nationality. §§AnimeshKulkarni (talk) 22:59, 4 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: Just make the subject-wise lists sortable for country and then we dont need all separate lists. §§AnimeshKulkarni (talk) 23:03, 4 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

Keep or merge. Personally I like the fact that List of Japanese Nobel laureates has more detail than the list by country, making it a far more useful list. It would be a shame to lose that. I wouldn't mind seeing all of that detail merged into the larger list by country, however. 66.159.220.134 (talk) 18:47, 11 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
What kind of extra information is there can you please tell?Then I will be happy to merge the article!--Skashifakram (talk) 10:23, 12 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Keep because additional information, such as the introduction, categories, and columns in the list plus the fact that this list takes a lot less effort to drill thru for information on a particular individual. I wish someone would create such an individual list for all other countries and delete -List of Nobel laureates by country instead. Ottawahitech (talk) 22:36, 15 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Your logic is very poor:

1)Introduction just introduces a subject,it's not a good reason to keep an article.

2)all the information can be merged in the main list.

3)categories? it has nothing to retain an article, in fact, there is no problem in category creation if these lists are deleted.Isn't it?

4)columns!Is it at all reasons for keeping an article?I doubt!

5)Your ‘less effort’ point does not add anything!

6)You are telling to delete the main list.why? will we not lose much information? what's your say!

Now, tell me, is there any good reason to retain these lists?--Skashifakram (talk) 11:11, 17 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Keep for all. the justification of a list is that there is a distinct criterion and the subjects are notable and the list is useful. The first two can hardly be doubted; it is clear that at least some people find this useful; I am among them. Although this is the sort of thing which might be thought of as being above national categories, the prize committees and the literature do make a point of nationality. Obviously we should keep the main list also. DGG ( talk ) 01:08, 18 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
