Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of fictional turtles
per nom.  This ''is'' the type of information you'd see in a directory/database, like a phone book which is the example used in .  This list also violates  as the subject of the list (the grouping of turtles from all aspects of fiction) has not been discussed nontrivially in any reliable, third-party sources. It's hard enough proving that fictional turtles are notable, but the compilation of a list of fictional turtles as the ''subject'' of its own article is a step beyond that even.  Also, per  this list is overly-broad in its criteria for inclusion (read: indiscriminate). It reads "Lists that are too general or too broad in scope have little value" and concludes "be prepared to explain why you feel this list contributes to the state of human knowledge" This list clearly does not contribute to the state of human knowledge.  The compilation of these has no end result other than the compilation itself. Nothing can be used for comparison purposes nor does each item within the list have any bearing on the other items within it
