Talk:List of people from Lexington, Kentucky

September 2015
Athletes - these may all already be on this article's list. This is a more appropriate place for them than the section on College Athletics in the "Lexington, KY" article. They should be listed on the table as appropriate; only those with existing Wikipedia pages and noted connections to Lexington. Parkwells (talk) 17:38, 15 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Tyson Gay, World Athletics Championships multiple gold medal-winning sprinter

From Lexington?
Lincoln and Naomi Judd never really lived in Lexington at all. Some others on this list seem to stretch what it means to be "from" someplace.128.163.7.152 (talk) 04:53, 5 July 2017 (UTC)

Vince Gill
What is the basis for including Vince Gill? His own wikipedia page makes no mention of Lexington KY. I searched the internet and found no reference to him living in or around Lexington (he did live in Louisville for a time, but that is a different metropolitan area). — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.25.204.196 (talk) 19:13, 20 October 2019 (UTC)

criteria
As the IPs mentioned above, this list needs explicit criteria for inclusion. I propose simply: more than one reliable source describing the individual as "from Lexington". It needn't be in our purview to decide what "from" means in this context, merely that an acceptable source says so. Any thoughts? —  Fourthords  &#124; =Λ= &#124; 00:46, 18 April 2020 (UTC)
