List of museums in Greece

This list is out of control. It violates WP:NOT#INFO and WP:NOT#DIR. Any museum that does not have its own Wikipedia article probably should not be here either; heck, we can use categories for the remaining museums, as is already being done for museums in general.

Delete. It's not entirely a collection of links to external sites, but it's primarily so. We already have Category:Museums in Greece for the ones with WP articles. Deor 15:05, 11 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per nom; at best a partial list that would be impossible to maintain. Bigdaddy1981 18:27, 11 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keep we have lists of museums all over the place, 75 articles in Category:Lists of museums; this is part of an overall scheme to categorize and list museums by country. Appropriate use of lists. Carlossuarez46 22:01, 11 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, but compare this one with, for example, List of museums in Egypt and List of museums in England. In those, the listed museums are linked to to the corresponding WP articles—with redlinks when no such articles exist. This list, on the other hand, seems deliberately set up as an aggregation of external links (although it looks as if someone gave up partway through). And it's terribly organized, too.

Keep but cleanup. It is currently a linkfarm, and a brutal violation of WP:EL. That does not mean the article concept is without merit, however. Resolute 02:30, 12 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - yep, it is currently a disgusting mess of external links organized by arbitrarily-picked cities (not even regions), with lots of duplicates and bad spelling. But, it's a lot easier to build up a proper list from this than from an empty page. I just returned from 3 months of visiting a lot of these places, so I'll start on a little of that cleanup now. --_└^Smith120bh/_TALK^┐ 17:18, 12 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. An unmaintainable mess. Catgory:Museums in Greece suffices. --Akhilleus (talk) 05:03, 13 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
