Forum:Famous people


 * I've noticed that pages such as William I, King of England (1027-1087) provides his vital statistics, children, marriages, etc. Then, on Charlemagne, a lot of his biographical information is from Wikipedia. I suggest, that for famous people, such as Monarchs, Presidents, and other people who have their own Wikipedia articles should only have their vital statistics, marriages, children, etc. Those who edit such articles on Wikipedia, such as adding new information etc. to the biography would be very difficult to update here. This way, here at the Genealogy Wikia all we have to do as list their vitals, marriages, children, etc. and a link to the Wikipedia biography. This way, updating their biographical information won't be so difficult, since those at Wikipedia are already adding the latest updates. The use of these people's articles here can be for a quick reference of their vitals, marriages, children, link to Wikipedia biography, and to link them to those who are not notable enough for Wikipedia.
