Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Famous peoples with ADHD
as no sources are given for the inclusion of any of the people on this list, and therefore removing the unsourced entries is tantamount to blanking the article. To those who say "the linked articles are sources," I'd point out that |the reliable source guidelines say Wikipedia is not considered a reliable source. Second, when sources are not actually shown visibly in a list, there is no way to tell quickly which of the entries really have sources and which do not. It is '''frequently''' the case in lists of this kind that the linked Wikipedia article will ''not even say'' that the person has ADHD is bisexual is a Brandeis alumnus whatever; far more frequently it will make the assertion but cite no source for it. Lists of this kind simply invite passersby to type in the name of someone they're pretty sure they've heard was really inattentive, then type a pair of square brackets around it, and, voila! it's a blue link. There's no way for anyone to tell whether the person who added the name even looked at the linked article, let alone found and verified a reference in it. List articles where the  verifiability policy is not enforced and sources are not required '''when items are inserted''' rapidly become muddled mixtures of perfectly legitimate entries and casual hearsay, that cannot be disentangled without hours of work
