- How famous does a person have to be? Actually that
depends on their occupational field, but generally, they have to
have a "national" or "professional" following.

Generally, they have to be baptized and not excommunicated. Most of
the exceptions to this rule are found on the rumor page and in the
infamous page.

have said so to a member of the press, who thought it was
interesting enough to write about. And sometimes we receive email
messages from members of their family or members of their ward.

disappointed (it was probably they who recommended your inclusion),
but we don't want to list anyone who does not wish to be listed, so
simply send an email message, and you will be removed as soon as
possible. Email Ron
