Regarding Good Article candidacy
I'm not sure this article is eligible for good article status. This page, I think, qualified as a list and, according to this, lists are not eligible for GA. --Midnightdreary (talk) 22:06, 1 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Okay, thank you.&mdash;RJH (talk) 20:03, 4 October 2008 (UTC)

Jan de Doot
His articles says that the stone came from his bladder, not his kidney. -- Beardo (talk) 16:32, 25 April 2012 (UTC)

Requested move 2 June 2020

Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion. 

The result of the move request was: page moved. (non-admin closure)  ~SS49~   {talk}  14:53, 9 June 2020 (UTC)

List of kidney stone formers → List of people with kidney stones – I propose we rename this article to a ore passive and neutral form in the form of List of people with gout. Whether or not this type of article should in fact exist, the use of the verb "form(ers)" is weird. People do not intentionally have kidney stones are are not usually described as "kidney stone formers". It's also inconsistent with our titling - we don't title articles List of influenza infectees or List of gout developers. Tom (LT) (talk) 04:23, 2 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Support per nom. 'Kidney stone formers' could be chemicals that cause kidney stones, unclear that it refers to people who have them. Retswerb (talk) 05:22, 2 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Support as per norms ~ Amkgp ✉  07:38, 2 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Support, since the current name doesn't make much sense in English (WP:RECOGNIZABLE), and for WP:CONSISTENT reasons. That said, I think this is a WP:AFD candidate, because no one is notable for this, and it is not a defining characteristic. It's like having an article on people who have broken their fifth metatarsal.  — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ 😼  11:38, 2 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Comment - it is a known term in kidney stone disease; see i.e here or search for the term "former" in this University of Chicago website where an entire department is devoted to stone formers. A stone former has chronic stones vs a person who might have a single stone in a lifetime. In terms of the people listed in this article, there's no way to know whether they are formers or not. Victoria (tk) 14:38, 2 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Oppose: 'with' is present tense, so the proposed title would be misleading. Note that the original article was called kidney stone sufferers, but some people found that objectionable. Praemonitus (talk) 17:39, 2 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Support: More recognizable as per WP:RECOGNIZABLE than the present one.--Ab207 (talk) 18:02, 2 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Support. The proposed title is not ideal because some of these people no longer have kidney stones, but the current title uses an obscure, WP:ASTONISHing definition of a common-looking word. It seems that the proposed title is consistent with the other lists at Category:Lists of people by medical condition. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 21:21, 5 June 2020 (UTC)
