Wikipedia:WELLKNOWN
Appearance
This redirect may meet Wikipedia's criteria for speedy deletion because: the phrase "well known" does not even appear at Wikipedia:Biographies_of_living_persons#Public_figures where this redirects to, and linking to this phrase can be used in a misleading way to make people think the policy applies to non-public figures. It derives from a section title "Well-known public figures" which was abandoned in 2010. WP:PUBLICFIGURE is an adequate shortcut alone.. For valid criteria, see CSD.
