Talk:Lists of atheists/Rejected

Latest comment: 14 years ago by Noleander

The following people have been investigated and rejected for inclusion on the List of atheists. Rejection rationales have included that the person denies being an atheist; prefers another label (such as agnostic); has expressed some level of skepticism, but not enough to definitively identify them as an atheist; has ambiguous views; or no reliable source has been found to confirm their atheism.

If you wish to add someone to the main list, please review this list first to see if they have already been considered and rejected. If you have found a reliable source identifying someone listed here as an atheist, feel free to move them from this list to the main list, and cite your source. For people who have been rejected for reasons other than lack of sourcing, please discuss the issue first on the main talk page before adding them to the main list.

If you add someone to the "Rejected" list, please provide a brief rationale for why they were rejected, as well as a link to relevant discussion on the main talk page, and/or biography talk pages. Please do not add names here of people whose atheism is actively being disputed or discussed. Rather, wait for consensus to be reached before adding to this list. Please do not discuss inclusion or rejection here--reserve that for the main talk page.
