Notability

He owned more than 100 African slaves who picked cotton in the fields.

How is this notable? These tallies are being increasingly featured in wiki pages, sounding like a rap-sheet. I feel that the category ‘American slave owner’ should be restricted to people whose slave-owning history was notable in itself. Valetude (talk) 04:44, 12 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
