Questions about famous people from The Maples
Who counts as from The Maples?
Two sources must agree: Wikidata, placing the birth inside The Maples’ neighbourhood outline (the census tracts it is drawn from) or one of its hospitals or districts, and the person’s English or French Wikipedia article. Moving here later is not enough, and adult performers and people known chiefly for crimes are not listed. Toronto, Montréal, Ottawa and the other split cities keep a birth recorded only as the city on the city’s own page, while each neighbourhood lists just the births recorded in it.
Why is someone missing?
Their Wikidata record may stop at the province, point to a rural area we have no page for, or name a different town, and their article may disagree or say nothing. Only a birthplace both sources share is listed; edits to either are picked up at the next refresh.
Birthplaces, descriptions, years, occupations and the count of Wikipedia and sister-site articles come from Wikidata (CC0). Each birthplace is checked against the person’s English Wikipedia article, or the French one where English says nothing or has no article; the articles are linked, never quoted. Wikidata’s Statistics Canada code, the place’s name or its point inside the 2021 census outline puts a birth in a town, and a birth given only as a split city stays on that city’s page. Fields are read from the description and occupations, and the list runs by number of articles. “The usual town” is everyone listed across Canadian towns.
