Sister Cities?[edit]

Is the German city of Frankfurt Oder officially a sister city of Ledyard? I can't find anything about sister cities on the town websites for either city, but I believe both cities agreed to become sister cities after years (possibly decades) of participation in a high school exchange program called the German American Partnership Program (between Ledyard High School and the Sportschule Frankfurt (Oder)).


Nevermind, it looks like Frankfurt Oder does have a list of sister cities and Ledyard is not on it. The list can be viewed at this location: Frankfurt /O website[1] as of 2/11/2007 9:50am.

Notable people[edit]

@69.59.65.64 and 2601:80:C202:F54:805C:C07A:28A8:37FC: Please read and understand Wikipedia:Notability and Wikipedia:Write the article first before re-adding people to this article. The burden of proof for notability (especially for people) on Wikipedia is very high; it requires multiple substantial independent sources about the person, and it must be clear why the person is notable. Activities like writing local history books and starting a scholarship (and appearing to NPR to talk about it) are far below Wikipedia standards for notability and do not justify adding a person. That is not merely my opinion - that is long-established Wikipedia policy. @BrineStans: pinging you because you've been involved in their similar editing on a different article.

  • Support I too reverted the removal of this person because I'd found many hits on Google initially, but upon further investigation most of them proved to be duplicates, for other people with the (somewhat unlikely) same name, or were of cursory coverage. IMO if an article for Jade Huguenin were created it would be highly unlikely to pass notability. Markvs88 (talk) 12:46, 19 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support Do we no longer follow WP:WRITETHEARTICLEFIRST? If there is no Wiki article, they cannot be added to Notable lists. BrineStans (talk) 02:37, 20 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
