* ”’Delete”’ per Alalch E. I don’t necessary think deleting is easier than adding a template, but at the same time the fact that nobody has even noticed that these pages were broken for years is clear enough evidence of their uselessness.

*”’Keep:”’ The original bot issue have been fixed. I don’t see the benefit of deleting this page, and there is at least a possible benefit of keeping it. It serves as a possible inspiration for the creation of other articles that would help counter our [[wp:systemic bias|systemic bias]]. If even one article gets created because someone saw this page, I would consider it worth keeping. Maybe the real problem is that these kinds of pages aren’t advertised widely enough.

Only created in October and already 1.2Mb, as every few days nearly the same 80K is added at the end. Completely useless accumulation of data Fram (talk) 14:11, 8 January 2026 (UTC)
- Keep, easy fix – Would’ve been helpful if all these identical nominations would just be bundled together (or, really, absent any valid deletion rationale, just withdrawn), but see Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/Wikipedia:Equity lists/Nationality/Seychelles for the discussion. A bunch of people forgot the closing tag, making the bot append rather than update the list. Whether the bot should stop running on some of these pages is not a matter for MfD. As it stands, these are pretty typical Wikidata-based lists, built either to explore content gaps or for personal curiosity about topics, and not meeting any of the criteria for deletion. — Rhododendrites talk \\ 18:57, 8 January 2026 (UTC)
- Even if the growth bug is fixed, it still is a page that isn’t used (or else the bug would have been spotted a long time ago) but requires regular bot edits. There is no reason to keep such pages around. If it can be changed to be bot-populated on manual request only, i.e. when the page creator really wants to look at it, then a case for keeping them might be made.

- Delete per nom, the identifier of a suitably straightforward fix — an easy fix. Any subsequent purported easy fix is already less easy by virtue of an easy fix having been put forward and requiring less explanation.—Alalch E. 16:15, 10 January 2026 (UTC)
