Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of published lists
Ignoring the reason for nomination, which can't be supported (Wikipedia would be rather bare if we removed everything that was not TPA), I'll provide a comment as I consider this one.  Lists are always problematic when they become the subject of a deletion debate. My view is that they should be treated as encycopedic articles in their own right, so that they don't become a directory. This is consistent, I think, with . It's one thing to provide reliable verification for each individual entry in the list, but does the article's topic itself need to be verifiable? If so, do we need to verify (in this case) the concept of published lists, which after all is the article's subject? If so, how do we do that? Do we need to provide evidence that published lists are notable? I think the answer is "yes" to both questions and, accordingly, I'm leaning towards delete, but I'll need to give this one some more thought
