I pointed you to the MOS for embedded lists of people That shows the appropriateness of the embedded list of people within the article Do you have anything other than your sampling of articles Any guideline MOS or rule Because I have seen many embedded lists of notable people If they are this size they are typically within the article If they are longer they are stand alone I ve pointed you to MOS which make it clear beyond a doubt that it is perfectly appropriate to have an embedded list of people within an article How do you square your comment with that As I said stand alone lists are fine as well and appropriate for longer lists but you ve pointed to nothing that indicates that somehow the MOS is incorrect
