The result was keep. It is important to remember that consensus is not a vote. With that in mind, I find that the strength and basis in policy for keep rationales is significantly stronger than that for deletion. In order to arrive at this conclusion, I carefully considered the content and weight of each argument, ensuring that everyone’s opinion is accounted for. At the end of this process, I conclude that there is a consensus to keep. The consensus is based on a careful consideration of the strength and grounding of each argument in policy as opposed to rationales which do not follow from established guidelines. Taking all of this into account, I see a consensus to keep the page. (non-admin closure) Shawn Teller (he/her) (talk) 22:45, 1 April 2023 (UTC)

The list exists to let some companies avoid orphaning (at least one of them is an ongoing AfD). And we already have Category:Call centre companies for any other purpose. Suitskvarts (talk) 17:32, 25 March 2023 (UTC)

- Delete A bare list with no proof of completeness — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kgfleischmann (talk • contribs)
- No completeness in your statement since you forgot to sign it. Completeness is not a requirement for an article to exist. Dream Focus 00:12, 26 March 2023 (UTC)
- It remains a list of call center companies with articles in Wikipedia, imho a bit missleading Kgfleischmann (talk) 09:17, 26 March 2023 (UTC)
- How is that misleading? Have you never seen a list article before? Any list only list entries that are notable enough by Wikipedia standards to have their own articles. Dream Focus 15:48, 26 March 2023 (UTC)

- Keep You shouldn't delete a list because you prefer categories. There is a rule against that. Everything on the list links to its own article. Dream Focus 00:12, 26 March 2023 (UTC)
- Note, I have edited the article to have a table. This allows for far more information than a category would have, thus more useful for those wishing to find something. Valid navigational list and a valid information list as well. Dream Focus 00:30, 26 March 2023 (UTC)
- Keep I don't see a problem as long as the entries point to an article (and the article asserts their notability). That is standard, and we have lots and lots of lists like that. -- Alexf(talk) 01:26, 27 March 2023 (UTC)
