Please read WP:NLIST first and then re-comment. Policies change with time, based on the consensus, so articles/lists should reflect that. You should link your reasoning as your rationale doesn't make sense. Closing admin should ignore such comments. Störm (talk) 13:07, 9 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
To expand the quote from the referenced WP:NLIST :One accepted reason why a list topic is considered notable is if it has been discussed as a group or set by independent reliable sources and There is no present consensus for how to assess the notability of more complex and cross-categorization lists (such as "Lists of X of Y") or what other criteria may justify the notability of stand-alone lists. There is clearly no consensus that the only notability criteria for a standalone list is that is has been discussed as a group. There is also the guidance in WP:NOTSTATS that : Where statistics are so lengthy as to impede the readability of the article, the statistics can be split into a separate article and summarized in the main article. The closing admin should ignore selectively quoted guidelines. Spike 'em (talk) 14:57, 10 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
WP:NOTSTATS is a general guideline that applies to all articles with statistics. It is not limited to lists and in your quoted text it even doesn't mention that it applies to the list. Störm (talk) 11:28, 11 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
