Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of online real estate databases
I think the nominator may misunderstand what "context" means in : it doesn't mean the list has to contain a paragraph's worth of information about each individual entry; it means the ''topic'' has to have some context for why an encyclopedia should care about it. (For example, if I created a list of employees at my local grocery store, ''that'' would fail NOTDIRECTORY — but a list of ''notable'' things is ''not'' an automatic NOTDIRECTORY fail just because it's a list.) And as other commenters have noted, lists are not automatically deemed redundant with categories either — because they organize the content in different ways, they serve different purposes. The list ''can'', for example, be improved with a bit more of the nominator's type of context, such as being converted into a table with geographic information and references, whereas a category cannot. There certainly are some cases where a list isn't actually warranted, but I'm not seeing a ''compelling'' argument being made why this would be one of them
