I sorted them in Excel and the total is 169. There are 36 articles on music groups. Three "other" articles (a list, a criminal trial article, and a summary-style daughter article). The other 130 articles are on living individuals. I'll throw a list up on-wiki somewhere and link from here. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Carcharoth/Featured_BLPs Carcharoth > Sources: > > http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Statistics > http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Biography_articles_by_quality > http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Living_people > http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:FA-Class_biography_articles _______________________________________________ WikiEN-l mailing list WikiEN-l@lists.wikimedia.org To unsubscribe from this mailing list, visit: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikien-l
