Delete inappropriately capitalized article that is redundant to other articles with soap opera cast lists. Wryspy 10:44, 16 February 2007 (UTC)

  • Weak Keep Why not keep it? But we firstly have to define "Soap Opera".--Orthologist 13:37, 16 February 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete per nom. — AnemoneProjectors (talk) 18:45, 16 February 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete. Many soap opera character lists already exist for respective programmes. Ben 08:54, 18 February 2007 (UTC)

  • Delete - unnecessary list per WP:LIST; would become ridiculously long if it were to include every single actor who ever appeared in a soap opera. Walton monarchist89 10:35, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
  • Deleted!!!! erm, Delete. Seriously, though, soap opera is a very vague genre and this list would probably become hopelessly long. --Sapphire Flame 15:28, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
How do you figure? Soap opera is a well-defined genre of television program. Why would you call it vague? - Mgm|(talk) 09:05, 23 February 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete as a nigh-unmaintainable indiscriminate list. Could number in the tens of thousands, taking into account all the soap operas that have existed since the format came into being. Otto4711 20:37, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete. Some random selections appear to already be covered in categories about this. Unless the list can add something the cats don't have I see no reason for having them. - Mgm|(talk) 09:03, 23 February 2007 (UTC)
