Please don't alumni to List of Embry–Riddle Aeronautical University alumni‎ if there is not already a Wikipedia article for that person. And please don't add information about yourself to Wikipedia. Thanks! ElKevbo (talk) 20:20, 17 December 2022 (UTC)


 * The page is a list of Embry-Riddle Alumni, I am an Alumni why can I not be added? There is another alumni posted without an article. LaurDoss (talk) 20:22, 17 December 2022 (UTC)


 * It's a list of notable alumni, not all of them. If someday someone writes a Wikipedia article about you, then we'll add you to this list. Until then, I'm afraid you should not be added to this list anymore than I should be added to the notable alumni lists of my alma maters.
 * (And thanks for pointing out that there was another entry in the list that doesn't have a corresponding article; I've removed it, too.) ElKevbo (talk) 20:44, 17 December 2022 (UTC)
 * The title of the page is "List of Embry–Riddle Aeronautical University alumni" with no instance of the word notable. If this is the case I suggest adding that in. LaurDoss (talk) 20:48, 17 December 2022 (UTC)
 * That's a reasonable point. We typically just use "List of __" for the titles of list articles; I imagine that it's because the contents of every list article have to be notable so it's redundant. It would kind of be like beginning every Wikipedia article with "Wikipedia article about __" or "Encyclopedia article about __" - technically true and helpful for some people but unnecessarily repetitive.
