Talk:List of people from Portland, Oregon

message: Just added an entry of Brad Fitzpatrick.  He created the popular web log (blog) known as LiveJournal and based his operations in Portland.  He has since moved to San Francisco, CA.—Preceding unsigned comment added by Slimem88 (talk • contribs) 04:55, May 22, 2005
More talk about Portlanders is at Talk:Portland, Oregon#Famous Portlanders --Jason McHuff 06:43, 14 September 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree; this list should clarify current/former residents, etc. For example, I had never heard anything about Frank Black moving to PDX, so I had no idea if his inclusion on the list meant that he was born here (no), grew up there (no evidence for that), spent time here as a young adult, or just moved here last year (the last is true, according to the Los Angeles Times, July 23, 2005). -little otik 22:08, 25 June 2006 (UTC)

message: Does the last name first, first name last thing bother anyone else? --Liface 21:28, 23 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes. I think we should change it to "first name last name" but keep it in alphabetical order by last name, à la List of people from Oregon and List of famous New Yorkers. -little otik 22:24, 25 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text:  Done. Next step, establishing notability. --Liface 00:22, 26 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, but first, let's establish that it *is* a list of notable Portlanders. I wonder why List of notable Portlanders isn't the title of the page instead of just a redirect to this page? Perhaps it should be switched, and List of Portlanders should be the redirect. The opening paragraph should also be rewritten to reflect the criteria for inclusion. -little otik 02:38, 26 June 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  Name formats 

message: *Names are written in direct order: First Name Last Name, 
**For example: Albert Einstein, not Einstein, Albert.
*Names are in alphabetical order by surname/last name.

thread_title: Format/Editing

message: A page similar to this one. List of people from San Francisco, is currently under review as an article for deletion, for reasons which would apply to this article as well.  I am conducting an RfC on the talk page of the above-mentioned list to determine whether the concensus agrees on keeping such lists or not.  Any and all comments are more than welcome.  Badbilltucker 16:20, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I voted keep on that, I also believe all lists like this should be kept. --Liface 23:15, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

:Thank you for your suggestion. When you feel an article needs improvement, please feel free to make those changes.  Wikipedia is a wiki, so anyone can edit almost any article by simply following the Edit this page link at the top. The Wikipedia community encourages you to be bold in updating pages. Don't worry too much about making honest mistakes — they're likely to be found and corrected quickly.

message: I have never once heard that Frank Black lives in Portland, Oregon, and that article doesn't specify what state he lives in. Seeing as he's from the East Coast, are you sure that article isn't just talking about Portland, Maine?—Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.245.108.12 (talk • contribs) 03:36, December 2, 2006
:Nope.   Looks like he lives in Eugene now though. Katr67 02:56, 2 December 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Frank Black? 

message: Using this list as an example, I propose that we use the following table format:
Name	Lifetime	Notability/Profession                                                 	Note
    	b. 1936 	Worldbeat musician                                                    	
    	b. 1973 	Artist                                                                	
    	b. 1962 	Member of Everclear                                                   	
    	b. 1956 	U.S. Assistant Secretary of State for Educational and Cultural Affairs	
Keep in mind this is just for a single entry, and the columns would be wider as longer names and notability explanations are used. (Edit: I added a few more rows to offer a better illustration.) This list could potentially reach featured status, and it would be nice to have a sortable table. Pictures on the side would also spruce the page up a bit. Any objections, suggestions, or concerns? I had so much fun working on List of Oregon state symbols that I thought this might be a fun new project to work on. Any one else want to lend a helping hand? --Another Believer (Talk) 03:13, 14 November 2009 (UTC)
