Wikipedia
The Queens Name Explorer team requests help from editors with expertise on notability guidelines. Many of the individuals with honorary street names are appropriate candidates for Wikidata entity records, but only some are appropriate candidates for Wikipedia articles. Creating stub articles or even just a list of people who should have articles, would be very helpful.
