Adding unreferenced entries of former employees to lists containing BLP material

Hello, Please do not add unreferenced names as entries to the list of former employees in articles. Including this type of material in articles does not abide by current consensus and its inclusion is strongly discouraged in our policies and guidelines. The rationales are as follows:

1. WP:NOT tells us, Wikipedia is "not an indiscriminate collection of information." As that section describes, just because something is true, doesn't necessarily mean the info belongs in Wikipedia.
2. As per WP:V, we cannot include information in Wikipedia that is not verifiable and sourced.
3. WP:Source list tells us that lists included within articles (including people's names) are subject to the same need for references as any other information in the article.
4. Per WP:BLP, we have to be especially careful about including un-sourced info about living persons.

If you look at articles about companies in general, you will not find mention of previous employees, except in those cases where the employee was particularly notable. Even then, the information is not presented just as a list of names, but is incorporated into the text itself (for example, when a company's article talks about the policies a previous CEO had, or when they mention the discovery/invention of a former engineer/researcher). If a preexisting article is already in the encyclopedia for the person you want to add to a list, it's generally regarded as sufficient to support their inclusion in list material in another article. cheers Deconstructhis (talk) 22:21, 14 April 2011 (UTC)

"Unexplained content removal"

On 3 February 2021 at 20:48 UTC, I made this edit to the article. I included the edit summary as follows: - unverified claims; - image sizing specification; - commented deleted image; + redirection bypass; + category alphabetization; - empty infobox parameters;. I have been reverted by Mvcg66b3r (talk · contribs) in this edit where they included the summary, Reverting edit(s) by Fourthords (talk) to rev. 1003315813 by Mvcg66b3r: Unexplained content removal (RW 16). Given my explicit description of the changes I made to the article, can anybody explain Mvcg66b3r's charge of "Unexplained content removal"? Thanks, — Fourthords | =Λ= | 18:18, 4 February 2021 (UTC)
