Originally I submitted it as "Coronavirus deaths of Wikipedia notable" people but changed it to Wikidata because it uses a different notability hurdle. https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Notability

There is also a list that only contains people with a page present on english Wikipedia:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_deaths_due_to_coronavi...

I haven't submitted that list because a) I felt the Wikidata list was more extensive and thus hopefully more updated (actually it's created automatically) and b) Wikidata had pictures.

Of course some people will become notable becautse of their death. I was mainly interested in the question as I read about Conway and wondered how many people like him with tremendous achievements have already died of Corona or will die.

Also, studying biographies gives a different view than only studying the numbers.

I think to be in the list you need to have a Wikipedia page before your death, but some of them may not be in the English edition as I've checked
