Recent additions

Hi. An editor recently, and others over time, have added names to this list where the people both do not have a wp article, and do not have in this list reliable source references that show that they are notable by wp standards. But that is what is needed for the people to be in this list. --2604:2000:E016:A700:8DFF:2984:6957:DE54 (talk) 01:13, 9 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Mitch Fatel did not attend NYU

The source link goes to his personal blog, and there is a different NYU claim on his LinkedIn page. It is clearly false and needs removed. 88.162.195.200 (talk) 09:35, 14 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Clarifying categories

The tables in this list are extremely long and poorly defined, notably the tables for "Educators" vs "Professors, researchers and scientists" and the tables that list awards when the person also falls into a broader table in the category. I'd like to start writing some criteria below each header to more clearly outline who should be in each table, and may start splitting/re-ordering tables to create better defined categories. Any thoughts and input (as well as other lists or guidelines that can be referenced) are appreciated before I start this process.
