Deletion of List of killed, threatened or kidnapped Iraqi academics

Comment: This topic -- the violent purge of Iraqi intelligencia -- is worthy of encyclopedia space, but I find a list of the particular targets problematic at best.  In addition to the nominator's concerns about the broadly inclusive view of "academics" taken by the list, I am concerned about its premise.  Tracking everyone in any field who has been ''threatened'' in what is essentially an active civil war is simply beyond the scope of Wikipedia.  With verification also uniquely unlikely,  issues seems a plausible hazard as well.  With all that said, this might be an idea to revisit after the situation calms down in the region and some more objective reporting can occur.  But not now, not like this
