WP:POVFORK of List of nicknames of Presidents of the United States, WP:UNDUE. Also seems like a case of WP:RECENTISM (most of these nicknames won't be relevant in some years). NoMoreHeroes (talk) 22:09, 20 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. I created the article not because of WP:POVFORK but because of the substantial number of nicknames in use. Claiming WP:UNDUE is in itself a judgement, if there are an equal number of nicknames that are non-perjorative, they belong here too, however I am unable to find them. (much praise for the President does not use nicknames, but generic e.g. "Best President ever". While I see some point for the argument of WP:RECENT, that is more a function of Trump having recently become President.Keizers (talk) 22:33, 20 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Violates WP:UNDUE. One could also argue it violates WP:NPOV. Jdcomix (talk) 01:13, 21 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - I can't find any reliable sources that discuss such a list, which would be needed to pass WP:LISTN. A few of the more notable nicknames could be added to the biography Donald Trump.- MrX 02:21, 21 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. MrX, the list doesn't have to be sourced, but the nicknames do as nicknames. I don't know that this has happened (but nice try), and at any rate the topic is really ridiculous and not notable. So no, delete. Yes, NPOV may apply as well since this is a BLP and the list is almost 100% negative. Drmies (talk) 02:28, 21 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    The specific list doesn't need to be sourced, but notability of lists is based on the group. List articles are sometimes made by listing notable subjects that already have Wikipedia articles. Simply compiling a list of sourced items does not satisfy notability.- MrX 02:51, 21 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
