Deletion of List of entertainers by nickname

Comment: The majority of these nicknames are mentioned in the WP articles for the individuals, and I think that's where the sources should be cited. (If they were cited in this list, the citations would obviously double the length of the article.) Indeed, many of them, such as Bing Crosby|"Bing" and Bix Beiderbecke|"Bix", are present in article titles. The list is merely a handy reverse directory—and, please, don't jump in with a reference to #DIR because I used the word—of the bynames. Any unsourceable ones can be summarily deleted
