Adding unreferenced entries of former employees to lists containing BLP material

Hello, Please do not add unreferenced names as entries to the list of former employees in articles. Including this type of material in articles does not abide by current consensus and its inclusion is strongly discouraged in our policies and guidelines. The rationales are as follows:

WP:NOT tells us, Wikipedia is "not an indiscriminate collection of information." As that section describes, just because something is true, doesn't necessarily mean the info belongs in Wikipedia.
As per WP:V, we cannot include information in Wikipedia that is not verifiable and sourced.
WP:Source list tells us that lists included within articles (including people's names) are subject to the same need for references as any other information in the article.
Per WP:BLP, we have to be especially careful about including un-sourced info about living persons.

If you look at articles about companies in general, you will not find mention of previous employees, except in those cases where the employee was particularly notable. Even then, the information is not presented just as a list of names, but is incorporated into the text itself (for example, when a company's article talks about the policies a previous CEO had, or when they mention the discovery/invention of a former engineer/researcher). If a preexisting article is already in the encyclopedia for the person you want to add to a list, it's generally regarded as sufficient to support their inclusion in list material in another article. cheers Deconstructhis (talk) 18:07, 10 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Dibsing another. ♠PMC♠ (talk) 17:38, 25 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Pretty minimal griping, really.

"The death of John B. Walton in 1967 came after his son, John B. Walton, Jr., had taken over the family's broadcasting properties." This sentence feels twisted up into itself. Since Sr's death didn't have anything to do with Jr's takeover, it might make more sense to split this. Do we know when Jr took over?
"In December 1969, citing economic issues with making the KMOM–KWAB business a viable one," citing economic issues and an unviable business feels slightly redundant

What on earth is a Petroplex
- Believe it or not, Petroplex redirects to Midland–Odessa. Think "Metroplex" (like Dallas–Fort Worth), but with "petro"leum. The economy of this area of Texas is oil, oil, and more oil. It is not the most common regional moniker (that would be Permian Basin), but it does exist in the names of some regional companies and institutions. I actually do not see it attested in any page of the Odessa American until 1975. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 18:45, 3 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

That's it. All minor gripes, nothing to prevent a pass. Consider these notes for improvement. No concerns with any other GA criteria - sources are reliable, spot checks checked out, no CV issues, logo is sole image and is used correctly. ♠PMC♠ (talk) 15:49, 3 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
