Category:Biography articles without blp parameter

This category has a backlog that requires the attention of willing editors.
This notice will hide itself when this category has fewer than 10 items. (recount)

This is a maintenance category, used for maintenance of the Wikipedia project. It is not part of the encyclopedia and contains non-article pages, or groups articles by status rather than subject. Do not include this category in content categories (except for eponymous maintenance categories).

This is a tracking category. It builds and maintains a list of pages primarily for the sake of the list itself. They are not part of the encyclopedia's categorization scheme.

• This category is hidden on its member pages—unless the corresponding user preference (Appearance → Show hidden categories) is set.
• These categories can be used to track, build and organize lists of pages needing "attention en masse" (for example, pages using deprecated syntax), or that may need to be edited at someone's earliest convenience.
• These categories also serve to aggregate members of several lists or sub-categories into a larger, more efficient list (discriminated by classifications).

Administrators: Please do not delete this category even if it is empty! This category may be empty occasionally or even most of the time.

This category contains biography articles within the scope of the Biography WikiProject. Articles are automatically added to this category by using the project banner template.

blp is a parameter found in the coding of {{WikiProject banner shell}}. Its usage is given at Template:WikiProject Biography. A person known to be dead should be explicitly marked as such.

If an article in this list is not directly about person(s), then it should not be tagged with Template:WikiProject Biography and appropriate replacement WikiProject(s) should be added to the talk page. A list of WikiProjects can be found here. For example, an office such as Prime Minister of the United Kingdom should not be marked with the banner template, but a musical band such as Pink Floyd should be tagged.

When an article is about many persons (such as a list of persons), the editor needs to see if at least one of the persons is still alive. If they are then |blp=yes should be used. If all persons in the list are dead then |blp=no should be used.

Although many (but not all) errors in the category can automatically be fixed by BattyBot, fixing your own errors is the best practice.
