Deletion of List of Jewish American entertainers

Comment: As  indicates with regard to "nationality/ethnicity" -- "List of Albanians includes persons who are famous in any category and who belong to Albania. The criteria for identifying as an Albanian does not solely depend upon the official citizenship laws of that country – a person could be related to the place by birth, residency, parentage, or by his or her personal admission, considers himself or herself to be an Albanian at heart

Comment: per , criteria #6, which states that: ''"Wikipedia articles are not non-encyclopedic cross-categorizations, such as "People from ethnic/cultural/religious group X employed by organization Y" or "Restaurants specializing in food type X in city Y". Cross-categories like these are not considered sufficient basis to create an article, unless the intersection of those categories is in some way a culturally significant phenomenon."'' This article is an almost exact fit for "People from ethnic/cultural/religious group X employed by organization Y", where religious group X = American Jews and organization Y = entertainers.  This is not the same as List of French entertainers, because that is a list organized by nationality, not religion.  Judaism is not a nationality

Comment: This group of people have great notability.  For example, see the ''http://books.google.co.uk/books?id=nUDbttcSl08C Encyclopedia of American Jewish History'' which has dozens of pages in its chapter on http://books.google.co.uk/books?id=nUDbttcSl08C&pg=PA486 American Jews in Entertainment and Popular Culture.  This contains numerous sub-sections such as American Jewish Women Entertainers, American Jews and Science Fiction, American Jewish Comedians, &c.  The contention that such categories are improper and lacking in notability is thus shown to be false. The rest is a matter of ordinary editing in accordance with our |editing policy and so there is no case for deletion

Comment: If this were a list of red-linked non-notables, I might agree with the nominator. But the shear number of blue-links would seem indicative of this list being A) properly sourced and sourcable and B) specifically encouraged by the caveats at . Not wishing to list such notables for our reader's easy navigation does not improve the encyclopedia. And no, I am not Jewish

Comment: Comment: Not that I disagree with this nomination but... aren't we cherry-picking here? These pages are not ''unlike'' the Nobel Prize list at all. You can probably find more external reading about Jewish American entertainers than Jewish Nobel Prize laureates by a mile. I don't understand why you're using it as an example of a "good list" when '''all''' these lists have the same inherent problem -- they |synthesize relationships where there are none. It's passive |original research. Unless everybody on this list is somehow related to Yiddish theatre or Jewish comedy... their Judaism has no bearing on their careers as entertainers (though conspiracy theorists will have us believe otherwise). Simply because "Look Who's Jewish!" cites somebody as a Jew, doesn't mean we are encyclopedically BOUND to report that, and that applies equally to the Nobel Prize list
