Wikipedia:Requested articles/Biography/By nationality
| Add your request in the most appropriate place below. |
|
Before adding a request please:
Biography requests are ALPHABETIZED and organized by profession and nationality; add your request to both categories if possible. Keep requests alphabetized by the person's last name.
Also, when adding a request, please include as much information as possible (such as webpages, articles, or other reference material) so editors can find and distinguish your request from an already-created article. Roughly three references and a short description should be sufficient. |
NOTE:If the country of nationality to which your requested biography applies doesn't exist (anymore), create an appropriate subsection below, or ask an experienced Wikipedia user for help and advice, e.g. on formerly, historical nationalities, multiple nationality owning and stateless persons. Remember a request is just a temporary, embryonic stage of an article. It is the content of the article itself that makes the difference. Appropriate categorization will eventually sort the biographical article on the subject of applying nationality, ethnicity etc.
| This page has a backlog that requires the attention of willing editors. Please remove this notice when the backlog is cleared. |
