  • Nothing in the article suggests people came close to being meaningfuly inducted. Additionally while it just about makes the character limit most of it is about survival rates rather than the club.©Geni (talk) 02:19, 27 March 2017 (UTC)
  • BlueMoonset, I think we should put this out of its misery (despite Nick-D's efforts); it's simply clogging up the nominations page. Thanks, Dr Aaij (talk) 03:59, 6 April 2017 (UTC)
    • I agree - the article isn't ready to be linked directly through the front page at present, as it's not really clear what it covers. Nick-D (talk) 09:57, 6 April 2017 (UTC)
