"former"?

What does "former" mean after "Justina of Padua" in Holidays and Observances? --Richardson mcphillips (talk) 12:08, 7 October 2015 (UTC)

articles which lack notability and seem to have been created just to be added to this list

the deaths linked to 2023 seem to be pages made in violation of the blp. 814jjs (talk) 14:57, 5 May 2024 (UTC)

@814jjs - you would need to delete/propose for deletion these articles. Once done, then they can be removed from this article. Kiwipete (talk) 18:27, 5 May 2024 (UTC)

complicatingly, each of those pages also has extended protection, which seems like an abuse of the policy. 814jjs (talk) 19:59, 5 May 2024 (UTC)
