List of Professors[edit]

Pointless list, and so far mostly without content (two Indian names, both red-linked). / Uppland 13:38, 16 Apr 2005 (UTC)

  • Delete. if it were taken seriously, it would be immense (and pointless). Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 13:43, 16 Apr 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. One shudders to think... -- Mwanner 13:52, Apr 16, 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete before this list gets out of hand. As a rule, average professors are not considered notable enough for articles. Sjakkalle 13:53, 16 Apr 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete there are literally tens of thousands of professors in Europe, let alone when we consider the other continents. Really pointless to try and list them, if they have any notable achievements they should have their own pages, but there is no need to maintain a central list. Oliver Keenan 13:58, Apr 16, 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. Would be far, far too long a list to be useful if filled in. Average Earthman 15:44, 16 Apr 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete as unmaintainable. Mgm|(talk) 20:40, Apr 16, 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. Most professors are nn in and of themselves, the two red links are even wrongly named. RickK 21:08, Apr 16, 2005 (UTC)
  • looks like a redlink farm to me, delete before it starts spawning articles on NN professors. BigFatDave 22:11, 16 Apr 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. All notable professors are notable for something besides being a professor. Shimmin 00:17, Apr 17, 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete, far to large a group. SeventyThree 00:21, 17 Apr 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. "Professor" gets 148,000,000 Google hits. Of course there's plenty of repetition and uses that are not references to actual professors, but still... -- 8^D gab 01:42, 2005 Apr 17 (UTC)
  • Delete,The things people think of...--Jetru 07:45, Apr 18, 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep, but subdivide into Lists of professors by country, Lists of professors by field and List of professors by IQ. Kappa 22:46, 18 Apr 2005 (UTC)
