Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of celebrity and notable guest appearances in Doctor Who (3rd nomination)
under current title.  When the article was trying to be a list of ''celebrity'' guests in ''Doctor Who'', although the criterion was slightly nebulous, it did have some meaning and potential interest.  It also would have been possible to verify that "celebrities who have appeared in ''Doctor Who''" was a topic of interest in the culture at large (I seem to recall, when Kylie Minogue was in the programme, the British media having sidebars about other celebs and notable figures who'd appeared in the show).  But a list of guest stars who have appeared in ''Doctor Who'' is simply too broad a topic, and heads towards being an |indiscriminate |directory.  ''Doctor Who'' has been on television for 46 years, with over 30 seasons, over 750 episodes and over 200 stories.  A list of '''all''' the guest stars in ''Doctor Who'' would contain thousands of entries.  The subject is just too broad for Wikipedia's purposes
