Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of Mega Man cast members
I must stop this pile-on deletefest before this gets |snowballed. This list needs ''improvement'', not deletion. It can be improved with sourcing and more information (like which specific works each actor appears in or what characters they play). It is not "|indiscriminate"—it's not a FAQ, a plot summary, lyrics, statistics, or news report. It's not a "#DIR|directory"—it's a list of people who are at least partially "famous because they are associated with or significantly contributed to the list topic", i.e. they are known for being notable voice actors in a notable and popular video game series. "Unsourced" is a |fixable problem as all of these actors can be verified as voice actors for a Mega Man or Metal Gear video game or TV series to reliable sources. Many of the other complaints above are also fixable problems. All the actors, except for a small number in the Metal Gear list, are notable and have Wikipedia articles. I put no merit in statements from sockpuppets that  is "silly". Mgm seems to be misreading CLN because I find nothing in that guideline that says that "list that try to emulate categories are a basic no-no", it in fact says that ''deleting'' lists that are "redundant" to categories are a no-no. And as the category was deleted, this list is in no way redundant or "better as a category". Bring up a DRV on the category CFD if you want to use that excuse to delete this list. The |overcategorization guideline in no way applies to lists—someone already |tried that and it got no consensus at all. There is no reason that the wiki process couldn't improve this |imperfect list article over time. I'd work on it myself but I am currently extremely busy with real-life events (I wouldn't even have commented here today if I didn't think a snowball was approaching
