List of bearded people

Not really a very useful list, in my opinion. Also unlikely ever to meet any objective criterion for accuracy or completeness. Michael K. Edwards 08:56, 17 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Also, bearded status can change in a matter of days, and a beard affects a man's performance or image in barely measurable ways, thus making the need for a list miniscule. User:Kelsch

Delete. No one will use this list to find other articles. Beardedness is last and least among all possible distinguishing features a person could have (except for humanity, I guess). --Ling.Nut 11:53, 17 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Please explain why you list 3 usernames? Does your Delete count 3 times as much as mine?Edison 18:10, 17 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Reply If you hovered over the links, you would notice that "Tizio" leads to User talk:Tizio, "Caio" leads to Special:Contributions/Tizio, and "Sempronio" leads to User:Tizio. Apparantly his signature is some sort of Italian phrase or reference. --tjstrf 19:58, 17 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Even if it did, AfD is a consensus, not a vote; it doesn't matter if he had fifteen names. --RoninBK_ETC 22:30, 17 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Delete I'd say almost every male who reaches beard-growing age has given it a try at least once, and we shouldn't forget that there are some cultures is which beards are nearly universal. In short, unmainatanable and unencyclopedic. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 13:12, 17 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment on the above. "I'd say almost every male who reaches beard-growing age has given it a try at least once" -- with all due respect, I submit this is not true! I know personally (very well) at least one person that is a counter-example to your sweeping assertion :> (To be fair, you said "almost"). Ekjon Lok 19:11, 17 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Not useful. --Rbraunwa 15:26, 17 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Utterly pointless. Merchbow 15:40, 17 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete "Hmmm!" I said, stroking my beard, I go on and off the list every time I need a shave. And no Gabby Hayes! http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0371025/ Gol-dern unmanagable list! Apply Occam's razor.Edison 17:20, 17 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Completely and utterly pointless. -- Necrothesp 17:40, 17 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, unmaintainable. --tjstrf 19:58, 17 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Only maintainable if it refers to the David Gest/Liza Minnelli type of beard and not the Grizzly Adams type of beard. Caknuck 21:42, 17 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- LMAO You came THIS close to needing to replace my laptop... Thankfully I turned my head in time, my cat was not so lucky... --RoninBK_ETC 22:51, 17 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  - Glad to be of service :) Caknuck 15:40, 18 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I just don't believe this. Is this for real??? If yes, then you may keep this, and good-bye Wikipedia as a serious (even secondary) source. If, however, you care for Wikipedia -- even a bit -- then repeat after me: delete! (And who, by the way, had that much free time on their hands as to actually create something like this? Incredible! LOL!) (Yes: Bums and cult leaders... deities and devils... dwarves, Father Time, Hells Angels and other bikers... Hippies, Gnomes, Kings and Old Men... Patriachical Figures (shouldn't forget about those!) Pharaos, Philosophers, and... wait for it... Pirates! Rabbis and Revolutionaries! And Santa Claus! And Satan! And Sea Dogs, oh yeah! Not to mention Sages, Vikings and Wizards...)

Something that beats even Borges. [1] Gabriel Knight 00:48, 18 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Even though it might be maintainable if we use Caknuck's suggestion, such a list will run afould of WP:BLP. And the current version had WP:V and common sense problems.-- danntm ^T _C 02:33, 18 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Well, some beards have passed on; Rock Hudson's ex-wife died just last year, IIRC. Although I shudder at the article title List of deceased beards. --Charlene.fic 13:52, 18 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
