Deletion of List of former members of AKB48 (2nd nomination)

Comment: we cannot call 41 items ''very few'' with a wave of hand, this contradicts nom statement wbo claimed very few have articles. Second although many don't have article, one of the |purpose of list is development. Non linked titles in lists (and DAB pages) serve almost similar function as redlink, because they help overall development of Wikipedia. I said this as addendum to what has already been confirmed by many people above that the contents is indeed |verifiable and referred in RS. For any other concern it can be trimmed or reorganized  but |deletion is not solution here. ''&thinsp;&mdash;''&nbsp

Comment: agreed, it's very well linked through to articles, meets  per :Category:AKB48 members, meets  for all the additional information and context and contains 49 references to date. I really can't see why this was brought back to Afd despite the previous close

Comment: The article presently has 41 links to standalone biography articles. I myself don't view this number as "very few", as stated in the nomination. The article would benefit from copy editing, but it qualifies as per  relative to :Category:AKB48 members. Also meets  as a valuable information source and navigational aid, as evidenced in part by the https://tools.wmflabs.org/pageviews/?project=en.wikipedia.org&platform=all-access&agent=user&range=latest-30&pages=List_of_former_members_of_AKB48 3,551 page views it has received in the last thirty days
