Wikipedia is not a directory
As per Wikipedia:Stand-alone lists, Wikipedia:Notability#Stand-alone lists and Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Lists#Adding individual items to a list - The requirements are that:-

1. All lists must have clearly defined inclusion criteria
2. Every entry should meet the notability criteria for its own article. Red-linked entries are only acceptable if the entry is verifiably a member of the list, and it is reasonable to expect an article could be forthcoming in the near future and the red-linked entries are accompanied by citations sufficient to show that the entry is sufficiently notable for an article to be written on it.
3. Editors may, at their discretion, choose to limit lists by only including entries for those with Wikipedia articles.

This list fails most of these requirements in that:-

• There are no clearly defined inclusion criteria
• Most of the entries are not "verifiably a member of the list" in that they have neither an article nor a reference, let alone the "citations sufficient to show that the entry is sufficiently notable for an article to be written on it".
• As per the above rules, all redlinks, without "citations sufficient to show that the entry is sufficiently notable for an article to be written on it", should simply be removed

Personally, I would also like to simply preclude all redlinks, even if the relevant citations are provided, but that is a matter for consensus. - Arjayay (talk) 22:12, 13 February 2026 (UTC)[reply]
