A person who is considered famous. A famous person is someone who is known by many people. For the sake of simplicity, let’s assume that famous means being known by 10% of an areas population (such as a country, country sub division, town, etc.) from that period (such as the renaissance or roaring twenties). Therefore, there are many types of famous. One may be famous in their family, but not globally famous. This definition is useful for when desiring to write definitions about celebrities on Urban Dictionary. If it can be assumed that at least 10% of the population of the celebrities home nation (or residing nation if they are stateless) has basic knowledge about them (knowing their name and occupation), then it is acceptable to write a definition about that celebrity.

A celebrity is a person who is widely recognised in a given society and commands a degree of public and media attention. The word is derived from the Latin celebrity, from the adjective celeber ("famous," "celebrated"). Being a celebrity is often one of the highest degrees of notability, although the word notable is mistaken to be synonymous with the title celebrity, fame, prominence etc. As in Wikipedia, articles written about notable people doesn't necessarily synonymize them as a celebrity.
