Inclusion criteria too vague. "Significant" is subjective enough to include anyone with a wiki article. This approaches WP:NOTDIR as it's practically a list of anyone. Per instructions on standalone lists of people at WP:LISTPEOPLE, the lack of selection criteria is a problem. EvergreenFir (talk) 21:57, 4 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
