This list article is a WP:CONTENTFORK of List of popes. All relevant age information is already given on the List of Popes page so it seems unnecessary to have a separate article for this. As it stands, the list is barely sourced and full of WP:OR and WP:TRIVIA lists and does not even contain a full list of Popes and their age. Vladimir.copic (talk) 22:55, 12 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. An indiscriminate collection of trivia. The selection of time ranges (e.g. average age between 1503 and 1700) appears to be arbitrary and/or original. No sources are provided for "probable youngest popes". Non-notable, non-encyclopedic, no salvageable pieces. pburka (talk) 00:22, 13 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - Perhaps this is entertaining, but it is not encyclopedic. - GizzyCatBella🍁 23:08, 13 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete; nobody cares. Minkai (talk to me)_{(see where I screwed up)} 12:24, 14 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Well the gerontology obsessives obviously do, and are going to catch wind of this AfD and brigade it with WP:ITSINTERESTING and WP:ITSIMPORTANT votes, but that doesn’t change that it’s not a good article and deleting it is the right thing to do.

Delete as a content fork of trivial information. Dronebogus (talk) 18:21, 14 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Per all of the above. An obvious case of WP:OR and WP:TRIVIA. Newshunter12 (talk) 20:14, 14 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
