List of stone churches[edit]

Too broad a scope for a manageable list. As in most countries most church buildings are built in stone, this list is going to be too long to have any encyclopedic value. Arsenikk ^(talk) 18:49, 23 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. You'd have to list just about every church in every village in Quebec for such a list to be complete. -- Blanchardb -^{Me•MyEars•MyMouth}- timed 19:13, 23 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, scope is impossible and encyclopedic value of categorization is unclear. –Roscelese (talk ⋅ contribs) 20:38, 23 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete too vague to be used for info and navigation purposes.--Lenticel ^(talk) 01:24, 24 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Delete too vague and broad. OSborn^arf_contribs. 02:37, 24 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Unmaintainable, since stone is a fairly common building material for churches. There's also no evidence that this is a worthy category for a list. TheCatalyst31 ^{Reaction•Creation} 07:55, 25 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Delete scope too broad to be useful and is unmaintainable. --Elekhh (talk) 21:58, 25 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - Could work as a category, not as an article. Mentoz86 (talk) 20:12, 26 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: Category:Stone churches in the United States already exists. St Anselm (talk) 02:16, 29 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - far too broad in its scope, fails WP:LISTN, etc. This belongs as a category instead. Chris the Paleontologist (talk • contribs) 20:23, 29 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
