Spiderone (Talk to Spider) 08:31, 18 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Comment I think this list falls under "Lists of X of Y" and those guidelines are quite vague.  This is a list of less than 50 names, mostly falling in the 19th and 20th century.  The List of Cornish musicians and List of Cornish engineers and inventors are not robust either.  I am  unfamiliar with Cornwall , so can't judge the value of a list of Cornish people.

WomenArtistUpdates ( talk ) 01:17, 20 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] delete because categories exist and this is a glorified category.  Dronebogus ( talk ) 18:06, 21 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Also, architects are indeed artists, who are responsible for designing buildings.  Builders and engineers actually construct them and deal with practical stuff.  Dronebogus ( talk ) 18:11, 21 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] That's your personal interpretation.  Few people would consider architects to be artists (except for the Frank Lloyd Wrights of this world), so there are no lists with such an unusual agglomeration.

I know I'll get flak for this but this article has existed for 14 years, I'd like to see more policy-based reasons and support for deletion before hitting the Delete button.

Briefly skim our constitutional status of Cornwall article for an overview why administratively it's been just another part of England for centuries and how the Cornish language faded from common usage in the 18th century.  Attempts to gain autonomy for Cornwall like Scotland or Wales have fizzled due to lack of local support.  We don't have lists like this for other regions or counties of England and there's no reason to believe a Cornish geologist, philanthropist or architect is going to be different from their other English counterparts.  The list serves no purpose.  In short, this list fails WP:NOT , specifically WP:CROSSCAT .  In other words, Wikipedia is not "non-encyclopedic cross-categorizations".  (Technically, this is a list, not a category but the notability discussion at WP:LISTN references WP:CROSSCAT and suggests the same rationale for deleting similar lists.) -- A. B.
