Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of male superheroes (2nd nomination)
Too broad in scope for an encyclopedic article to emerge, per  and . A more notable qualifier to superhero may make for an interesting list (such as List of Marvel Comics Superheros), but there really isn't anything special about being a male superhero and we surely don't need to group these people together just on account of being ''male superheros'' (I could see the case for female superheros, as this is primarily a male "profession"). As such, this is an |nonencyclopedic cross-categorization, and our NOTDIR policy states that just having a cross category isn't ''considered sufficient basis to create an article, unless the intersection of those categories is in some way a culturally significant phenomenon''. Overly-broad lists such as this need to be deleted, not encouraged. DGG's suggestion about the criteria for lists above is not supported by policy or consensus
