Trivial cross-categorisation ("age at death" and "Academy Award winner") which is also statistical trivia. Unsourced WP:OR. The article is a very confusing table of winners of "Academy Award X" by age, and is loaded with trivia, such as their date of birth, date of award, age when they received award, date of death, and final age. All ages are in years and days, and final ages are also tabulated in xx,xxx thousands of days they were alive.
The actual Academy Award for Best Actress list is of Featured List quality, which underpins how pointlessly trivial this cross-categorization is. Newshunter12 (talk) 15:20, 8 October 2021 (UTC)

- Delete all List of oldest and youngest Academy Award winners and nominees reasonably lists the superlative winners and nominees, but it's absurd trivia of negligible use or notability to list the ages of every single winner like in these articles. Reywas92Talk 16:23, 8 October 2021 (UTC)
- Delete all. I agree with all of the above. Athel cb (talk) 17:07, 8 October 2021 (UTC)
- Delete all as above. Also see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of Italian presidents by longevity and Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of longest-living state leaders (2nd nomination) and many others of that type. I wonder why people bother to create these. Ode+Joy (talk) 20:49, 8 October 2021 (UTC)
- Delete all per Reywas92 and inclement weather. Clarityfiend (talk) 21:13, 8 October 2021 (UTC)
- Delete all Useless contentforks and listcruft which fail WP:LISTN. It is increasingly becoming clear we need some kind of overall consensus on "by age" lists as they are almost all contentforks where the age information can just as well be displayed in an overall list (if people are that interested).
