Questions about famous people from Marmora
Who is the most famous person from Marmora?
Greg Terrion (Canadian ice hockey player) comes first, by the number of Wikipedia languages that cover them.
How many famous people were born in Marmora?
For Marmora the list comes to 1, every birthplace backed by an English or French Wikipedia article. Wikidata places 2 here in all, and those missing from the list lack a confirming article.
What is Marmora known for?
Mostly athletes: 1 of the 1 people listed. That is 100% of the town’s list, against 38% across Canadian towns.
Who counts as from Marmora?
Two sources must agree: Wikidata, placing the birth inside Marmora’s municipal boundary (Statistics Canada’s 2021 census subdivision) 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.
Why is someone missing?
Some have no birthplace below the province on Wikidata, some were born in a hamlet without a page here, and some have an article that names another place or none at all. The page lists only what Wikidata and Wikipedia agree on, and it follows their corrections at each 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.
