List of cities in Lebanon[edit]

  • Delete There's a category Category:Cities in Lebanon, so why a list? 500LL 16:06, 13 Feb 2005
  • Keep. There seems to me to be a community preference for retaining separate lists and categories. JuntungWu 17:54, 13 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep. There are similar articles for most of the countries. Grue 19:27, 13 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete, list duplicates categories without adding anything significant, pointless. Megan1967 00:29, 14 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • KeepCategories don't replace lists. Wincoote 01:22, 14 Feb 2005 (UTC)
    • No but this list says nothing. More than half of the listed cities dont exist as articles. A good example of a list that says something is eg. List of assassinated people - annotated entries. Encyclopaedias are meant to be useful. Megan1967 06:26, 14 Feb 2005 (UTC)
Grouping related things that don't have articles is probably the main merit of lists now that there is also a category system. Wincoote 20:57, 14 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep, some on the list may not have their own articles. Wyss 01:32, 14 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep. Does not duplicate the category: some cities in Lebanon don't have articles yet. -Aranel ("Sarah") 02:23, 14 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep. Categories are not lists. RickK 06:28, Feb 14, 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep. The apocalypse is near; I agree with RickK. —RaD Man (talk) 02:17, 17 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete, there is already a category for this. JamesBurns 08:02, 26 Feb 2005 (UTC)
