Names must have citations
[edit]To make this perfectly clear once again. No name should be added to this list unless a citation from a reliable source is provided which states that the person is British, and of Cypriot descent. For living individuals in particular an unsourced inclusion on this list violates WP:BLP policy, and in any case it is a basic premise of Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Lists (and WP:VERIFIABILITY in general) that inclusion in a stand-alone list like this requires sourcing. This is not optional. AndyTheGrump (talk) 18:16, 11 September 2012 (UTC)
