List of Britain's Got Talent finalists[edit]

This article is more of a content fork for several articles that are covering each series of Britain's Got Talent. I can understand that some people want to list the finalist in this programme, but this list is a complete mess and duplicates information on finalists that articles on each series already cover. The lead also details information best reserved for the main article on the programme - If this was a List of Episodes, it wouldn't be an issue. GUtt01 (talk) 19:29, 10 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: If there is good consensus for Keep, then I hope that those who opt for it, can at least rectify that list and clean it up when this discussion ends, please? GUtt01 (talk) 18:47, 11 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep as this seems a valid topic for a list on a very popular subject and saves time for people having to go through each article to find the finalists and this list gives more useful information than is available in a category. Also a number of the entries are notable and problems with the prose can be edited out. Atlantic306 (talk) 19:54, 10 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - I agree with above. List is useful.BabbaQ (talk) 18:08, 11 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. The nomination appears to be an appeal for cleanup, it is a pretty tawdry article but lists often are. Szzuk (talk) 14:24, 12 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
