Out of Control
This list is totally out of control wit almost no referencing and listing entries that are a stretch to say the least. I plan on doing a pretty massive pruning in the near future. Ridernyc (talk) 20:24, 26 January 2013 (UTC)

I agree. Start with Jim Morrison. 68.3.0.237 (talk) 21:38, 2 June 2015 (UTC)

Unsourced Entries
Starting today, I will be removing any entries that cannot be correctly sourced. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Category adder (talk • contribs) 18:48, 6 May 2020 (UTC)

Administrator Help?
If possible could an administrator set a protection so that only autoconfirmed users can edit this page, ip users keep adding unsourced entries over and over again and it gets very tedious to sit there and revert all of them. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Category adder (talk • contribs) 19:48, 9 October 2020 (UTC)
