Listcruft. Wikipedia is not for memorials. — RHaworth (Talk | contribs) 11:15, 16 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. Just an unlinked list of otherwise non-notable people that offers no further information about them. This does not really serve any encyclopedic purpose outside of being a memorial. ~ mazca talk 12:25, 16 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete This is a clear violation of WP:NOTMEMORIAL, one of the Wikipedia's rules that may seem harsh, but which is necessary to maintain an online encyclopedia. Otherwise, we would have long lists of names of people who died at the World Trade Center, at Hiroshima, at Pearl Harbor, on the Titanic, at Auschwitz, Soweto, Nanking, etc etc. Some think it's heartless not to; I tend to think that it's more heartless to rattle off a bunch of names without the slightest interest in any of the people on the list. I note that the article about Pärnu has a history that stops at the 18th century, as if nothing happened in Estonia after that. According to The Holocaust in Estonia, Pärnu had a Nazi death camp, and perhaps more can be mentioned in that article, or one about the prison itself. Even then, however, memorials are linked, they are not created. Mandsford (talk) 13:53, 16 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
