Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Scottish inventions and discoveries
Some of the keep votes seem to be based on . Obviously a list of African-American inventors will suffer from the same problems as a list of Scottish ones. If these lists are kept, at least be ruthless about blanking every entry without a reference. It would seem obvious that at least the straight parallels English inventions and discoveries and Welsh inventions and discoveries should be grouped with this AfD. Note that List of Chinese discoveries is different because it deals with Ancient China, i.e. discoveries made by a pre-modern civilization, not by people holding a certain passport. Needless to say, discoveries made by modern researchers who happen to be Chinese would be out of place in a list of discoveries attributed to Ancient Chinese civilization
