Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of deaths in The Sopranos series
The article was nominated for deletion per #INDISCRIMINATE, however, that reason is '''invalid''' because it lists EVERY death in the series.  If some deaths were included, and some left out, that would make the list ''indiscriminate'', however, since ALL deaths are accounted for, then this list is ''discriminate'', and therefore, the nomination is invalid.  If you also take into account a point brought up post-nomination, that |wikipedia is not a directory, this too, is invalid, as this list is, in no way, trying to act as a directory.  A directory, for lack of a better word, is like a telephone book.  You look up something you need, and it tells you where to get the information.  (ie:  go to '''THIS''' location to find what you are looking for).  This list has what you are looking for inside the same article, it is not telling you to go anywhere else to find the information.  Of course, there are links to the episode where they died, but the list does not say "here is the episode, to find out who died, click here to find out".  Because of this reasoning, that, too, is an invalid reason to delete.  '''EVERY''' single list on Wikipedia, is going to have a blue link to somewhere else.  That does not mean it is acting like a directory.  True, there are people using , but there are also people using  as well. The fact of the matter is simply, that this list does not fail , and no other ''policy'' that I can find.  To delete this list would be absurd
