As a result of the huge community discussion regarding unsourced biographies of living persons and what do about them (see for example Wikipedia:Requests for comment/Biographies of living people), I'll be doing a bit of work to clean up, reference, and if necessary put up for deletion BLPs that are unreferenced. This page is just an informal log of those activities (which began on January 25, 2010) for my own reference (or anyone else's for that matter).

BLP problems in the above
Some of the above articles had problematic (in terms of BLP) material in them, which was obviously removed.
- Anastasio Somoza Portocarrero—current version reports a lot of serious accusations against Somoza Portocarrero (as it must given his history), but the previous version (which made similar accusations) was incredibly problematic given that none of the controversial claims were sourced.
- Jarobi White—seemingly minor to some perhaps, but a specific (unsourced) claim was made about White's current career which, while it could easily be true, could not be quickly verified and which could be offensive to the subject were it not true.
- Mark Coyne (musician)—multiple unsourced claims which many would take as casting aspersions on his character.
- Susana Dosamantes—unsourced claim about a legal matter.
- Shaggy (radio personality)—unsourced sentence that made a personal and negative claim about the subject.
