Why citations?

edit

I don't think it is necessary to add citations to the page. What are the citations going to prove, anyway? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Daniel.minkovsky (talkcontribs) 22:32, 13 December 2014 (UTC)Reply

wouldn't it be better to organise them by century? Blackbird34 (talk) 23:51, 19 January 2014 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Blackbird34 (talkcontribs) 23:46, 19 January 2014 (UTC)Reply

Dates

edit

Similar lists on other topics, such as List of British scientists, show dates of birth and death. I think this is very useful, necessary even, so that it's immediately obvious if one is dealing with someone alive today or someone who died in the reign of Louis XIV. For the moment I'm only adding dates for scientists I'm familiar with. Athel cb (talk) 16:49, 11 May 2023 (UTC)Reply
