I have harvested my notes and library for potential topics for articles. I do not know enough about most of these subjects to write about them (thought I'm not making any promises not to do so in the future). Some of the titles are bound to overlap and because I mainly manually typed this information, there is probably spelling mistakes.
Add any relevant comments you have but let me remove the blue links. That way I can check the progress and comment on the false redirects. However, if you do notice a misspelling, go ahead and correct it.
As far as biographies are concerned, I have kept the names and dates as they were in the original sources so some of the people have died already. If you think someone is in a wrong category, discuss about it in the talk page. But if you know enough about someone to see the difference, maybe you could write an article about them.
