This topic was discussed by quite a few people and the consensus was that former members should not be included in this list (or in the category) unless their former membership is a "defining characteristic" of their notability. This phrase "defining characteristic" was cited afterward by a number of different editors. I was not involved in the original discussion, but I can support this apparently sensible guideline. Alternatively, I wouldn't object to removing all former members. -] (]) 06:58, 22 December 2009 (UTC)
*'''Oppose''' removing former members. Their membership is cited and discussed in multiple different ] and is noteworthy of mention. ''']''' (]) 08:42, 22 December 2009 (UTC)

*I disagree with removing former members, assuming of course that there are adequate sources for their inclusion. If it has been noted in the past that someone is a member then that's the historical record. The only reasonable exemption I can think of would be if a person was a member for only a very brief period, but even then it's best in most cases to simply note the circumstances of their membership. That ability to annotate the entries is one of the advantages of lists over categories. &nbsp; <b>]&nbsp; ]&nbsp; </b> 09:26, 22 December 2009 (UTC)
::There are actually 100s of times more former members than members. I don't especially object to listing some of them here, but what makes these few notable and not others? Also their status as members (when they were members) and their reasons for leaving are all different. Some were only members for a few months. One, at least, for many years who raised her family in the church and then left after her children had grown and she and her husband divorced. When I nominated the list for deletion before (I voted keep on the second nomination) I asked who would keep the list up-to-date. Is someone going to phone the people on the list every week to ask them if they were still members, or had rejoined if left? ] (]) 10:19, 22 December 2009 (UTC)
:::
::: I don't know how many current or former members there are. But I work on literally thousands of article, and in those I've seen hundreds of lists of notable residents, alumni, followers, journal contributors, and members. We don't delete people from the list of notable residents because they left or from the list of followers if they've died. There need not be a memory hole here. It's typical and uncontroversial to include both current and former members of an entity.
:::As for being up-to-date, I agree with that concern. We should avoid implying that those who are listed as members are necessarily current members. We may have a source saying they joined and no source saying they left, which is typical of how sources work. (By comparison, it's typical and frustrating to find a source that talks of an arrest or indictment, with no available or traceable source that mentions the final disposition.)

*****That single sentence is already found in ], ], ], and probably some other WP articles. Also some of the news stories seem to contradict the opening sentence of the article which says: "The True Family, in Unification Church terminology, is the family of church founder and leader Sun Myung Moon and his wife Hak Ja Han." Some say that any believer in the Unification Church becomes a member of the True Family. A few say that any family with a husband, wife, and children is a "true family" (not capitalized). This last is what I would guess most people would understand this expression to mean, if they were not familar with the Unification Church that is. ] (]) 17:03, 10 November 2010 (UTC)


NOTE: Kitfoxxe invited me to comment on this, but I'm under orders to "stay away" from UC-related articles due to ].

Supporters section

Is this section okay? It seems kind of weird to me to list people by what seems to be their mostly indirect connection to something. Do we have, for instance, a list of supporters of Notre Dame University? Mightyherculescalifornia (talk) 11:26, 1 August 2022 (UTC)
