List of supercentenarians born in the Russian Empire

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

This article groups together the information found on the country specific articles and is an unnecessary subset of the Europe article all linked here Template:Longevity. For example, EVERYONE born 110+ years ago in the modern Russia (and Finland and each of the other modern country cats) was born in the Russian Empire. It creates a maintenance hassle in an area where accurate updates are tough because of the poor coverage of these people by RS. Legacypac (talk) 04:44, 9 December 2015 (UTC)

Delete Yet more fanfluff listcruft. No RS to justify this a separate list. DerbyCountyinNZ ^{(Talk Contribs)} 09:14, 9 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - As I explained in the Nordic AFD, this "list of" article fails WP:LISTN as no sources (none at all, not even the GRG) discuss "supercentenarians from the Russian Empire". Also redundant because every name is mentioned in the other country and deaths by year articles under Template: Longevity. CommanderLinx (talk) 10:17, 9 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete but note the Russian Empire was partly in Europe, partly in Asia. EEng (talk) 13:42, 9 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Yes but there are no Asian super old people outside Japan even though that country has 3% of Asians, but that is a different credibility issue with our coverage of the topic. And what is with the geography and political history bits between the lists? Legacypac (talk) 14:20, 9 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

No problem then. EEng (talk) 21:11, 9 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete I'm not seeing any type of justification/coverage for a standalone list on this topic. Canadian Paul 06:12, 11 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This debate has been included in the list of Lists of people-related deletion discussions. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 19:11, 12 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: Awful maintenance hassle, and a content fork. Over a dozen different countries is way too many to force into it. Even my grandmother was born in the Russian Empire. Ceosad (talk) 17:11, 13 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Keep I don't see what is wrong with this list. It is a very well put together list and very well maintained. Also why are you saying on other AFD's that one nation is too small and a group list is better. However in this AFD you say that a dozen different countries is way too many to force into it? That is something to think about. Petervermaelen (talk) 08:23, 15 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
