I'm not sure what purpose this list serves - the individual designers where appropriate appear on List of fashion designers#Italy and many are red-links. I don't see where we have other lists for people from Florence, apart from the clearly encyclopaedic List of mayors of Florence. It does seem a bit redundant. Maybe merge the names to Italian fashion, although almost all the names checked here seem to also have namechecks on that page. Also, I see no equivalent lists for say, London, or Milan, or Paris, or Tokyo, and don't think they are required at this point in time. Mabalu (talk) 15:03, 27 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete/merge No indication that this is a significant category considered as a group by reliable sources, as required by WP:L. Florence isn't one of Italy's biggest fashion centres; there's no article on Florence's fashion; the section Florence#Fashion is one paragraph long. List of fashion designers#Italy covers the same topic and we don't need both. Maybe there would be a case for a page which lists Italian fashion designers with info like city and dates, but we don't need the sort of granularity given by one list per city. --Colapeninsula (talk) 09:53, 5 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- Merge with List of fashion designers#Italy per above sound analysis. Cavarrone 07:04, 15 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- That might not quite work because that list is (unfortunately) sorted by where people are born rather than where they are active; the criteria makes it rather useless, unless the two happen to coincide. Someone not using his real name (talk) 19:44, 16 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- As far as I can see, all the bluelinks listed in Fashion designers of Florence are of Italian origin so yes, it appears a case in which the two happen to coincide. Cavarrone 06:09, 17 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
