Talk:List of people from New Orleans

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.

message: An editor recently removed all the links to subjects currently without articles. I objected saying I knew some of them were subjects we need articles on, so they reverted. However I do think we might need to look through them. I'm pretty ignorant about the rap scene, can someone confirm that these are rappers of some note? I did remove the listing "William F. Faulkner, writer and screenwriter" -- might that have been a reference to William Faulkner? Put it back if he's not. I can vouch the following legitimate subjects for articles:
Cuisine: Alcitore, Le Ruth.  Entertainment: Bagneris. Music: Baquet brothers, Dede, Lacombe. In Math & Science, I've heard of Lascaux but only as a passing mention.  -- Infrogmation 14:45, 17 October 2007 (UTC)

message: There seems to be a problem with the Eugene Grace link.  It doesn't say what this article says it does.  Do any of you know the correct link?  Nolabob (talk) 02:13, 11 April 2012 (UTC)

message: I don't see the relationship between Caroline Hill and the City of New Orleans.  Unless someone can help out on that, I intend to delete Hill from the list. Nolabob (talk) 00:28, 23 October 2015 (UTC)

message: Should Clyde Barrow and Bonnie Parker really be on this list? Bonnie and Clyde were not from New Orleans and any connection to the city is not mentioned in their article. Dunarc (talk) 20:07, 7 August 2018 (UTC)

message: There have been recent instances in which certain notable New Orleans residents have been removed from this list, examples including, but not limited to, Leon C. Weiss and Albert C. Ledner.  These individuals lived most of their lives in New Orleans with most of their professional works in New Orleans. The top of the list states "This is a list of notable individuals who are or were natives, or notable as residents of, or in association with the city of New Orleans, Louisiana, United States." I believe that several notable New Orleans residents have been inappropriately removed from the list. But I'm open to a different point of view. Nolabob (talk) 12:34, 9 March 2021 (UTC)
