Comment: The topic satisfies  as there are multiple good sources which have listed notable redheads as a group.  This is a significant attribute as many of the individuals listed here were so famous as redheads that they were named accordingly, e.g. William Rufus, Eric the Red or Frederick Barbarossa.  The claims that the list is too large to be manageable are false as it is currently just a modest 11K and there has been no great rush of additions.  We have many larger lists of people such as List of swimmers, List of writers, List of scientists, List of bow tie wearers, &c.  All that is needed when such a list becomes large is a split by some suitable sub-category such as decade or country so we can cross that bridge as and when we come to it.  To delete the article for such a hypothetical and unproven reason would be contrary to our |editing policy
