Talk:List of people from Birmingham, Alabama

message: Ya gotta admit, that "attorney, banker" doesn't sound like much of a justification.  It's my opinion that to make this list, the candidate should also rate - and have - an article.  Given your comments about Watkin's achievements, I agree with you that he qualifies.  Is there any chance you would also be interested in creating an article about him?

replies: text: If they are notable, they should have Wikipedia articles.  If they don't have Wikipedia articles, then perhaps they don't belong here.  That is the best criterion for inclusion.  If you really believe that they are notable, write wiki articles for these people - then add them to the list. Plazak (talk) 19:31, 5 January 2013 (UTC)

message: Would Hank Green be better in another category? Whilst he is a notable musician it is not what he is most known for. He is primarily a YouTube personality.
