Per
WP:WHIM basically. (Test case as there are a number of other similar lists which I may nominate if the consensus is that they should go.)

Delete. Strictly speaking this isn't exactly
WP:INDISCRIMINATE, as it has a clearly defined inclusion criterion (although I do wonder why it contains every Canadian provincial legislature, but not every state legislature in the US) — but what it doesn't contain is references to properly
verify the accuracy of the information. It also misses the fact that several of the people listed took office in 1984, while failing to list the person or people who held the position for the preceding portion of 1984 — frex, Canada can't just list
John Bosley (November-December 1984) while eliding
Jeanne Sauvé (January 1984) and
Lloyd Francis (January-November 1984), and Canada's not even the only country in the list where that's an issue (it's just the only one where Bearcat the Canadian doesn't have to dig to find who's missing). Unlike national heads of state, this is not a role where the Speaker of the Canadian House of Commons and the Speaker of the Brazilian Chamber of Deputies are ever going to collaborate across international borders — so it's not a role where we need crossnational lists by year.

Delete Maybe I am lost as to the purpose of the article. If someone can give me any reason this list is important, I'm all ears, ping me. --

Mbakkel2 Since you created the article, can you give me a hint why we would want to keep it? You seemed to be interested in lists like. How are they useful? Can you show me one of these lists that gets lots of page views? That might help convince me it is a valuable resource. --

From July 2015-July 2016, guess how many people looked at it?
