List of U.S. place names not connected to Sweden[edit]

I'm going to go out on a limb and guess that this article was created as a point about this one. Not a meaningful category for a list, wasn't sure if fits speedy so bringing it here. ~Eliz81(C) 07:01, 5 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep, this list nicely complements List of U.S. place names connected to Sweden and ensures that WP:NPOV is upheld by allowing all places to have equal recognition of their names.

- Delete. Completely worthless and unencyclopedic.--Michig 07:20, 5 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete - If there is a need for this list, I'm not seeing it. We may as well have a List of songs not written by Bob Dylan or perhaps a List of films that Chuck Norris does not appear in. --Bongwarrior 07:26, 5 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Strong Keep this article is heaps good, should be a featured list given a bit of time. Definitely ensures WP:NPOV is upheld in ensuring that all places receive equal recognition for their name AnObviousSockpuppet 07:41, 5 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Add to the List of articles that have been deleted from Wikipedia. Somebody's playing games here and wasting people's time. --Dhartung | Talk 07:42, 5 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

- Speedy delete - no purpose for this article at all (nor sources, come to that) B1atv 08:06, 5 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. I am reminded of the sentence "Flemish Giant Rabbits do not wear red neckties" (roughly translated from Norwegian) which was used as an example of a statement which is true, but is on a level of detail so high and inconsequential, that it becomes ridiculous. Quite frankly, Wikipedia needs to be far more concerned about what is, rather than what is not, unless there is a good reason to include the "is nots". That Montgomery, Alabama is not connected to Sweden is of zero consequence, and zero use. Sjakkalle (Check!) 08:23, 5 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
