Your recent edit to Petersburg, Virginia appears to have added the name of a non-notable entity to a list that normally includes only notable entries. In general, a person or organization added to a list should have a pre-existing article before being added to most lists. If you wish to create such an article, please first confirm that the subject qualifies for a separate, stand-alone article according to Wikipedia's notability guideline. Being the first of a particular race to have done something is simply not notable on this day and age. If you think this individual could meet a notability standard for a biography on Wikipedia, by all means attempt to write one. Do not however add this name to a notable list until he has a biography here. Thank you. John from Idegon (talk) 04:47, 1 December 2016 (UTC)
