Unreferenced WP:Listcruft. Proposed deletion contested by an anonymous editor. At Talk:Piers Morgan Tonight there is a brief discussion of splitting the listcruft to a separate article, and it's noted that there is a List of The Daily Show guests. There is indeed a whole category: Category:Lists of The Daily Show guests. I would argue for deletion of all of those too, but that's a separate matter.

Delete. Not a particularly useful list. Piers Morgan Tonight is a general-interest talk show, and if it lasts long enough, one can expect that pretty much every prominent person (politicians, actors, journalists, etc.), at least those who are notable in the United States, will appear on the show at some point (with the possible exception of Sean Hannity and Rachel Maddow, who host talk shows on other networks in the same time slot). This list has no sources and is not organized in any way except by category (not even alphabetically within the categories). See also Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of Guests on Late Night with Conan O'Brien (2nd nomination) for an example of a similar list which was deleted. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 16:32, 30 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Piers Morgan Tonight is a well known show, and if a person is important enough to be on the show, they are most likely going to be well known already. There is no reason to devote a LIST to just those who have appeared on the show. Tootalldk (talk) 15:37, 4 July 2011
