Unsourced material in need of sourcing
I'm moving the following unsourced list of notable residents from the article here until it can be properly sourced per WP:V/WP:NOR, etc. I have also removed the completely unsourced paragraphs on Amelia Earhart and Jim Jeffries, as Earhart was not a resident, and Jeffries was already on the list. There's no reason for these two people to have entire paragraphs, and the rest of the notables not to, and if the material on Earhart's flights from Burbank is accurate, it can be added elsewhere in the article, and with sources. A section on residents isn't it. Nightscream (talk) 07:06, 22 June 2010 (UTC)
