Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of political leaders who held active military ranks in office
While it is true that #DIR|Wikipedia is not a directory, the fact is that |lists also qualify as encyclopedic content provided they serve an encyclopedic purpose and adhere to the other guidelines of Wikipedia.  This (extremely extensive) list is narrow enough to be useful, and all pages link to full Wikipedia articles which contain verifiable references
