  • This is silly. People die of starvation every day. Darkcore 23:35, 25 Mar 2004 (UTC)
  • delete. Mikkalai 00:14, 26 Mar 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete. Not an interesting or enlightening encyclopedia topic. Dpbsmith 02:27, 26 Mar 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete. The "list" has only two people on it. Also, it's not a good encyclopedia article. Jacob1207 04:32, 26 Mar 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete -- Cyrius 05:23, Mar 26, 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete. No useful information. whkoh [talk]] 09:29, Mar 26, 2004 (UTC)
  • No vote. But how is this list any worse from the 14 lists found in Lists of people by cause of death (except from the fact that it has got just 2 entries). What are the grounds for request for its deletion - size, significance or its negativity ? Jay 14:17, 26 Mar 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete. Add instead an article about starvation, and possibly lists of (famous of course) people who: 1)starved themself to death, 2)starved in prisons/laborcamps/.... and give links to these sites from the appropiate topics. Mikez
  • Keep. This list has interested. Tough a bit short at present it will doubtless grow over time. Perhaps it would be good to restrict it to famous individuals.
    • Anon votes do not count. Darkcore 21:15, 27 Mar 2004 (UTC)
    • Oops. The Keep vote was by me : Sander123 09:06, 31 Mar 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep - there are lots of other cause of death lists (Lists of people by cause of death) - we need to be consistent on this one. Mark Richards 23:48, 26 Mar 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep - millions of people have died of starvation -- a few famous, the rest mostly unknown -- for various reasons. To ignore this issue in history is an insult to them and their friends and families.

  • Either keep this or delete all the lists of people by cause of death lists. Saul Taylor 00:58, 27 Mar 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep - I'm a newbie. Wound up adding Thurman Munson to the List of famous deaths by aircraft misadventure list as a result of this article. User:anonfornow

  • Keep - Redirect to the starvation page and move content there, organized by reason for starvation, as per Mikez's suggestion. --Alex S 17:57, 27 Mar 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep - obviously I want to keep it and shed more light on this subject because I started this page. Giftlite

  • Keep. Muriel on her user page brags that she does not look for things to delete. So, I vote to Keep. -- John Gohde, aka Mr-Natural-Health 05:34, 28 Mar 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep, its actually one of the better lists. Sam Spade 23:08, 30 Mar 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep. I would've voted for delete before, but now this is looking like a potentially decent article. Ambivalenthysteria 02:00, 31 Mar 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep. Perhaps rename to "Famous people who died of starvation" Ivan 16:53, Mar 31, 2004 (UTC)
