Eponymous category for Frankie Lymon[edit]

Greetings everyone,

How are you? Would you make sure that this eponymous category should be added to the article mainly or mostly focused on or associated with Frankie Lymon (and not necessarily have to do with The Teenagers involved) just in case, especially that he is mentioned numerous times? Also, DO NOT add this category to any article of his songs just because he is the one who sang them.

For films, music, and art about him, please the category under "Works about Frankie Lymon"

Thanks!

UPDATE MAY 29: You can add this category to the article who used to be or is or are inspired by him, et cetera. However, it DEPENDS if Frankie Lymon is MAINLY the focus or not

Exceptions: someone who was/is a family member of his or whom he had an impactful relationship such as spouses, friends, et cetera but not one of The Teenagers members just because they were closely associated with him or within the group (due to the potential risk of overcategorization which can be unreliable and unnecessary).Inajd0101 (talk) 21:14, 28 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
