adding unreferenced entries of former employees to lists containing blp material hello please do not add unreferenced names as entries to the list of former employees in articles including this type of material in articles does not abide by current consensus and its inclusion is strongly discouraged in our policies and guidelines the rationales are as follows wp not tells us wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information as that section describes just because something is true doesn't necessarily mean the info belongs in wikipedia as per wp v we cannot include information in wikipedia that is not verifiable and sourced wp source list tells us that lists included within articles including people's names are subject to the same need for references as any other information in the article per wp blp we have to be especially careful about including un sourced info about living persons if you look at articles about companies in general you will not find mention of previous employees except in those cases where the employee was particularly notable even then the information is not presented just as a list of names but is incorporated into the text itself for example when a company's article talks about the policies a previous ceo had or when they mention the discovery invention of a former engineer researcher if a preexisting article is already in the encyclopedia for the person you want to add to a list it's generally regarded as sufficient to support their inclusion in list material in another article cheers
