It is undesirable to include long lists of names on ICANNWiki that do not have a designated maintainer and are not directly connected to a relevant project, especially when the list is likely to change. Essential lists, such as those of members of the [[ICANN Board]], the [[GNSO Council]], and participants of [[Working Groups]], are allowed and encouraged due to the necessity of the information and the implicit expectation of their maintenance. Conversely, a list of recipients of a specific award for a particular year is undesirable unless the editor intends to compile a historical list of all recipients of the prize, which would make the list into more of an effort for content curation, rather than vanity editing.
