Talk:List of Louisiana State University alumni

message: Most of the sports figures listed on this page did not graduate. They are by no definition "alumni" of the University. I suggest an edit to the title of the list to "former attendees" or else a separate section for "people who played sports here"  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.69.70.165 (talk) 10:08, 4 March 2010 (UTC)
thread_title: Untitled

message: I wondered if a person needs their own Wikipedia article to establish notability before they may be listed in a school alumni association? I noticed Patrick J. Hanna is listed as an alumni in the "Government, politics, and activism" section and there is no Wikipedi article for them. Thanks!--Fraulein451 (talk) 01:01, 28 November 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: The listing of random state legislators, district attorneys, mayors, etc. under "Government, politics, and activism" simply because they held those offices with nothing of notable substance attributable to them devalues the listings of those alumni who did/achieved something noteworthy (or were/are notorious) beyond getting elected to office.  Apparently there is no bar so low that you can't get on this list if you are an LSU alumnus.  By comparison the list of those in the Military category is composed of General Officers.  If the Military category applied a similar standard, Alumni down to the rank of Captain (USA, USAF, USMC, or Lieutenant USN) would be listed.  Doesn't Wikipedia have an objective standard?  Or is it the case that all you need to make it on this list is a "friend" who will be your promoter?  As an LSU alumni I'd rather the listings were substantive and meaningful, instead of pitifully insignificant. Carrellk (talk) 12:31, 7 March 2021 (UTC)
thread_title:  Notability requirements for alumni

message: I removed the following people from the article because they do not have their own Wikipedia articles which is a requirement for establishing notability. 
Richard Frost, CEO of Louisiana Pacific Corporation
Dave Zellner, CIO of Wespath Investment
Ursula Pari, KSAT-TV reporter and anchor
