This list has only had a single source since its creation in 2006. It appears to be WP:OR and probably Synth of a topic which is not commonly listed together—thus this list as an independent group of people appears to be non-notable. Aza24 (talk) 21:46, 13 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I do think its a notable topic, but the article Damnatio memoriae covers it already. Maybe a list of emperors who had it happen to them could be a good Wikipedia page, this certainly isn't as its very very short, has no sources and no detail of why or when it happened.★Trekker (talk) 21:54, 13 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
The source has had a source since 2006, it's right there in the section called "Sources". Richard75 (talk) 22:06, 13 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
- Corrected. Aza24 (talk) 22:08, 13 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

It's not a very long list, we could just add it to the Damnatio memoriae article. Richard75 (talk) 22:34, 13 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Merge to Damnatio memoriae. Johnbod (talk) 02:13, 14 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Merge to Damnatio memoriae, the list is indeed short enough, and there are no sources to be found which could justify this as a separate list. --LordPeterII (talk) 10:12, 14 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Comment -- The problem is a dearth of sources. If we are to keep this, we would need to have added to it when the Senate condemned them and a source in each case. There is a short list in Damnatio memoriae, a slightly longer one in a category, but what is in this article is longer still. Peterkingiron (talk) 17:37, 14 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Why do you want an individual source for each person on the list? A source for the whole list is sufficient. Richard75 (talk) 18:03, 14 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
