One problem I have with your list and with Jimbo's list is that they propose very few great candidates from Korea or Madagascar.
I agree with this concern, but how to address it? I do not know of any prominent leaders either "outside" or "inside" Wikipedia from either Korea or Madagascar... or similar places.
South Korean figures: * Oh Yeon Ho *: Founder and CEO of OhMyNews * Lee Kun-hee *: Chairman of Samsung * Kim Chong-Won *: Founder and CEO of SKC Corporation * Kim Jeong-Hoon *: Head of Bell Labs, USA, among other positions
Melagasy (Madagascar) figures:
* Raharimanana *: Teacher, journalist, and author (in French) * Michèle Rakotoson *: Writer, journalist, film maker
This is by no means a reasonably complete list; merely a selection of figures notable enough to have entries in the English WP.
