How this list is made

A person is on this list when their Wikidata entry gives a cemetery we list as their place of burial and also carries the statement this list is built on. We do not add anyone by judgment, so the list reflects how complete Wikidata is: some people are missing, and burial places can be disputed.

Names, years and descriptions are shown as Wikidata records them. Names link to Wikipedia where an English article exists.
