- Comment - are these fundamentally different than everything in Category:Lists of Jewish Americans? --- RockMFR 04:43, 14 February 2007 (UTC)
- The lists of Jewish Americans are populated by blue links; the ones of Jewish Peruvians, by redlinks. YechielMan 05:49, 14 February 2007 (UTC)
- List of Peruvian Jews is clearly some attempt to make a point about Jews in Peru's society. Notice the amount of businessmen. Misplaced Pages's comment on overcategorization tells us that categories like LGBT literature are reasonable but LGBT nuclear physics is not. Therefore we can derive that LGBT writers is a category worth having but LGBT nuclear physicists isn't. This same idea can be applied to lists and "overlisting." While Jewish Americans is a valid division of people because America has the biggest Jewish population in the world, Jewish Peruvians is not because Jews probably have no more than 10,000 people of their ethnic group living there. If this were allowed to continue, we'd be inviting representatives of any Peruvian-BLANK ethnicity making lists for somewhat notable people form their community. This opens up the opportunity for List of Peruvian-Italians, Peruvian-Chinese, Peruvian-CanaryIslander and so on. This same idea could be applied to List of Mexican Jews another massive red-linked list with no ultimate purpose except to prove some type of point. A category for both Peruvian and Mexican Jews is perfectly sufficient for anyone who does happen to be both Mexican/Peruvian and Jewish. Filling up lists with as many Mexicans and Peruvians you can find who's names sound Jewish is not encyclopedic or helpful. It is the list version of "overcategorization."

- Delete. I tried last year to tidy up the unholy mess that had been created around here (there was once a "List of Jewish Peruvian Astronomer", which included a grand total of one name) and was hopeful that someone would be able to write useful articles on some of the names here. That obviously hasn't happened, so at absolute best a viable solution would be to replace the list with a category into which those with articles can go.

- Delete all. I looked at them all, and there is nothing worth saving. We could assemble the blue links into Category:Peruvian Jews if they aren't already there. YechielMan 05:49, 14 February 2007 (UTC)
- Delete all unnecessary profusion of lists. Wile E. Heresiarch 06:04, 14 February 2007 (UTC)
- Delete all... except perhaps List of Peruvian Jews (although I don't see what sort of purpose it serves since it has 90% redlinks and no references whatsoever).Pascal.Tesson 07:27, 14 February 2007 (UTC)
- The smaller lists are no different from the bigger one. It's just divisions. Usedup 08:19, 14 February 2007 (UTC)

- Keep and tidy up. The point of redlinks in a list is to point to articles that potentially need creating. Jcuk 14:58, 14 February 2007 (UTC)
- Jcuk, if you google those redlinks, you'll see about 75% don't even make it past 1 or 2 pages on google search. There's no way these people are EVER going to have articles made about them. This list is basically just a community list of non-notables, which shouldn't be surprising, there aren't very many Peruvian Jews period. You're saying to keep a list that will always be like it is now. Usedup 19:50, 14 February 2007 (UTC)
- 1) I said redlinks point to articles that "potentially" need creating. If nobody bothers after they've been there for X amount of time, sure, get rid. 2) I don't accept I'm saying keep a list which will always be like it is, but, if I am, then I'm as entitled to that opinion, and to express it, as you are to the opposite opinion.

- Delete all It is list cruft that has not much of a chance of being anything other than a list of redlinks. I have not seen so much red since a final I took in college. Fundamental Dan 20:25, 14 February 2007 (UTC)
- Delete all - I would support keeping the List of Peruvian Jews if sources were provided that the people are indeed Jews in the occupations for which they are noted or if they were all bluelinks which could serve as "soft" references. But as neither condition holds, they should all be deleted. -- Black Falcon 21:13, 14 February 2007 (UTC)
- Delete all as per List of Jewish Peruvian activists - List cruft, this is what categories are for, and I can't imagine an encyclopedic use for these lists. 21:38, 14 February 2007 (UTC)
- Delete all "Jewish Peruvian archeologists"? "Jewish Peruvian archeologists"!! JEWISH PERUVIAN ARCHEOLOGISTS. Just to read the name is to see the best argument against it. Maybe Jewish Peruvian authors, but not in English Misplaced Pages. Spanish maybe. Being a Peruvian Jew may, in theory, lend something to a book or poem, but ... to archeology?Noroton 00:55, 15 February 2007 (UTC)
- Keep List of Peruvian Jews ONLY and clean it up by removing excess red-linked names because it's part of a series relating to Category:Lists of Jews. IZAK 05:32, 15 February 2007 (UTC)
- There's already a page for Peruvian Jews on List of Latin American Jews. Do we really need a separate article for it? Usedup 08:51, 15 February 2007 (UTC)
- Comment - I have copied the 8 blue-links present in all of these lists (combined) to List of Latin American Jews#Peru. Those articles which do not assert that the subject is of Jewish background have been tagged with {{fact}} and may be removed. -- Black Falcon 17:13, 15 February 2007 (UTC)
