Request for Comment

A page similar to this one. List of people from San Francisco, is currently under review as an article for deletion, for reasons which would apply to this article as well. I am conducting an RfC on the talk page of the above-mentioned list to determine whether the concensus agrees on keeping such lists or not. Any and all comments are more than welcome.

fictitous people

Are we allowed to add fictitous characters that live in Brooklyn? --hotspot

I don't know, but if so they should definitely be separated from real people. MrVibrating (talk) 05:00, 21 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

A person (Tom Saywer) saved 90 people in a boat crash. Please explain why he is not notable. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jeffutz (talk • contribs) 22:41, 27 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I have just added archive links to 2 external links on List of people from Brooklyn. Please take a moment to review my edit. If necessary, add {{cbignore}} after the link to keep me from modifying it. Alternatively, you can add {{nobots|deny=InternetArchiveBot}} to keep me off the page altogether. I made the following changes:

Attempted to fix sourcing for http://www.njwomenshistory.org/Period_4/lffeickert.htm
