Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of members of the European Academy of Sciences and Arts
Lists, categories, and templates all serve different purposes, which is why we can have all three of them on a similar topic. However, exactly because they serve different goals, they also ''look'' different. A category is a bare list of wikilinked articles. A template helps in navigation. A list however, should be different. Yes, we have many :category:Lists of members of learned societies|lists of members of learned societies. Just click on a random one in that category and compare it to this list. Those lists give some more information than a bare list of names, which is at it should be for lists. The list under discussion here is a bare list of names, most not even wikilinked. As  (like  a guideline, BTW, not policy) states: "lists may include features not available to categories". This is not that. I also note that the vast majority entries in this list are not sourced to anything. In short, I argue that  applies here
