Deletion of List of Jeopardy! contestants (2nd nomination)

Comment: As a general rule, I would suggest that any person who has an individual article be included in any criteria for this list. Those who would otherwise meet  (at least two verifiable, independent sources for said contestant) but whose sole fame is due to ''Jeopardy!'' (and thus would not have enough info to justify an article of their own) would be candidates to be listed as they are now. That would, necessarily, increase the amount of eligible entries, given how much media coverage ''Jeopardy!'' contestants get—and how inconsistent that coverage can be—but it is a firm criteria, and a preferable alternative to destruction of the page (which would in turn break a whole lot of links and redirects to contestants who do not have full articles of their own yet and thus cause massive disruption

Comment: Any list article needs , and these should ideally be the starting point from which the list is constructed, not something we add to a pre-existing list. If we include every contestant, we end up with an  list that is way too broad per . I don't think it would be appropriate to have the threshold for inclusion be "subject is otable, i.e. has a stand-alone Wikipedia article", because some notable ''Jeopardy!'' contestants are not notable for being ''Jeopardy!'' contestants but for completely different reasons (John McCain is an obvious example).{{pb}}We have to ask ourselves what  this is meant to serve. If it's meant to be informational, we need to come up with inclusion  (and perhaps also ''exclusion'') criteria that are {{tq|unambiguous, objective, and supported by wikipedia:RS|reliable sources}}. If it's meant to be purely navigational, the solution would be to remove all the prose and simply have a list of links (though I frankly don't see the point in retaining such a list
