Notables still MUST have sources

Take a look at WP:LISTPEOPLE, which states that "A person may be included in a list of people if all the following requirements are met: 1) The person meets the Misplaced Pages notability requirement. An exception to this requirement may be made if the person is famous for a specific event, the notability requirement need not be met. If a person in a list does not have an article in Misplaced Pages about them, a citation (or link to another article) must be provided to establish their membership in the list's group and to establish their notability on either BLP1E or BIO1E. 2) The person's membership in the list's group is established by reliable sources." Copying unsourced material from one article to another simply risks propagating incorrect information from one article to another. Misplaced Pages requires sources for all notables added to all articles. If the article for a notable has a source establishing a link to a place, then verify the source and feel free to copy it to the article for the place. If it has no source, then one must be identified and added to the article for the place. Unsourced material will be removed. Feel free to contact me on my talk page with any questions about Misplaced Pages's policies on reliable and verifiable sources, or any questions regarding addition of the required sources.
