Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of papabili in the 2013 papal conclave
with Papal conclave, 2013 (and also merge List of papabili in the 2005 papal conclave with Papal conclave, 2005). Wikipedia carries articles of lists of candidates for offices of national leadership (examples Democratic Party presidential candidates, 2012|here and Republican Party presidential candidates, 2012|here); the lists of papabili, although unofficial (and thus  I'll admit, albeit a squishy form of it IMHO), are roughly analogous to them, so I think that their content is warranted. However, I think that their unofficiality should disqualify them from existing as articles in their own right. Merging the lists of papabili with the corresponding lists of cardinal electors is improper because although papabili have traditionally been cardinals, papal conclave#Choice of the electors|it isn't required that they be such. The only option (that I see) that satisfies what I've laid out here is to merge them into the "top-level" articles on this subject, which are the articles about the elections themselves. Having said that, those who are passionate about keeping the lists on Wikipedia should try their best to keep them from violating
