List of people with reduplicated names : What next?  List of people with double letters ?  List of people with names that conmtain three letters e ? , List of people with second name Bob ?  The privious nom was closed because they said no rules forbade such lists.  Well, I don't know what was 14 years ago, but now there are: Being articles, stand-alone lists are subject to Wikipedia's content policies verifiability , no original research , neutral point of view , and what Wikipedia is not , as well as the notability .  Basically, the above boils down to the fact that no reliable source discusses such lists - Altenmann >talk 15:37, 2 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Note:  This discussion has been included in the list of Lists of people-related deletion discussions .  Spiderone (Talk to Spider) 17:10, 2 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Delete I can't read the "Couplings" source but this is not a distinguishing or unifying characteristic of these people, and notability is not established for why reduplication in names is significant or why they should be listed together.  It seems indiscriminate to me that it combines names that are reduplicated within a single name (e.g. the Chinese given name Bingbing or Congolese surname Lualua), as matching surnames and given names (Abraham Abraham), as multiple surnames (Rodriguez Rodriguez; I imagine this can't be that uncommon with Spanish naming conventions!), and as made-up nicknames and fictional characters!  Perhaps limiting it to just Same personal name and family name would be better and less indiscriminate but this would really need to show some level of significance with sources so it doesn't just feel like unexplained trivia.  Reywas92 Talk 17:29, 2 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] It's not at all uncommon with Spanish names: there must be thousands and thousands of people called Rodríguez Rodríguez.  In the days of printed telephone books it was easy to check if you were in a Spanish-speaking country (as I did, years ago).  I wouldn't be all that surprised to meet a Rodrigo Rodríguez Rodríguez.  In any case the list is trivial: Delete .  Athel cb ( talk ) 13:47, 17 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] The list has a very trivial feel.  It also includes names that are kind of the same.  The best way to handle this would probably be to cover reduplication within each language on its own.  It may well warrant a place in the Wikipedia name space, cf.  Wikipedia:Unusual place names .  PS.  See also List of tautological place names , which is similarly unsourced and fairly trivial.  Geschichte ( talk ) 08:56, 3 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Delete as per nomination.  Article is more trivia than anything else.  TH1980 ( talk ) 01:55, 7 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Comment : The arguments made for deletion are fair and persuasive, yet, perhaps this merits further consideration.  The article has been around for quite a while and a lot of time has been spent compiling this (admittedly haphazard) list.  As messy as it is, there is some actual (and amusing) information here, and it's not evident that one would find it in one place anywhere else.  Is this something that we want to preserve in some distilled format or someplace else in this encyclopaedia (per Geschichte above)?  -- Cl3phact0 ( talk ) 16:45, 7 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] @ Cl3phact0 : What if I were to userfy it?

I do personally think that this page should be deleted in its current form, though.
