Talk:Deaths in 2006

message: I just want to know why the Bobby Glen Wilcher entry that I put here was deleted. He was a death row inmate from Mississippi who was executed on October 18. And now an entry on Jeffrey Lundgren is here. That's not fair! Southerngyrl20 19:02, 24 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Some executed people are more notable than others. I know of Jeffrey Lundgren due in part to the article here. If something makes Bobby Glen Wilcher notable he, I presume, could fit.--T. Anthony 08:13, 1 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I really don't think that Wilcher was too well known outside of Mississippi, whereas Lundgren's trial did make national headlines. I'm not sure if Wilcher made national headlines or not... Keekee 14:48, 17 November 2006 (UTC)

text: May it sound morbid, in my view every executed person is worth mentioning because capital punishment in individual cases can always attract attention and debate. I mean, once mentioned, nobody should be deleted for reasons of being 'marginal'. David —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 62.24.76.48 (talk) 12:41, 16 December 2006 (UTC)

message: Why was he made a seperate article?  Essentially he IS the Azusa Plane,  I guess sometimes live he would have others on stage, but Azusa Plane IS Jason DiEmio.  Wouldn;t a redirect to the band be better than a seperate article that would probably end up eventually being merged? -FateSmiled&DestinyLaughed 18:27, 5 November 2006 (UTC)

message: The citation says that John Howard heard on the 6th that Fairhall had died.  It doesn't say he died on the 6th.  I strongly suspect he would have died at least a day earlier than this, but there's nothing else on Google that I could find.  When another citation becomes available, we will need to check his actual date of death.  JackofOz 23:44, 6 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: As I suspected, Fairhall died on 3/11, according to the obituary in today's Age.  I've moved him to the right date.  JackofOz 02:03, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

message: Why is Bellinda Emmett listed as dying on the eleventh? In all time zones i know of, it is still the tenth. Right now it's 10:30 Central united states. Didn't want to change iincase it's supposed to be that.
:Because she died in Australia, today. And today in Australia is the 11th. --Ninevah 04:55, 11 November 2006 (UTC)

message: Not notable enough to have a Google page (or as a supermodel, image on Google.) - Should she be here? On the flipside, junior football players make it here all the time. So it's a toss-upAde1982 00:34, 16 November 2006 (UTC)

message: I note that poor old Joe Jagger has been buried and dug up regularly by bickering Wikipedians. However, if Joe fails the notability test, then why not also Ms Tullis (d. 11 November)? Her only claim to fame was giving birth to "Rocky" Dennis.  —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 203.185.212.210 (talk • contribs) .
:I agree she is of marginal notability, but she has at least been a subject in a (somewhat) biographical film. This is not true of Joe Jagger (as far as I am aware). If you think she is not notable then be bold and delete her, giving a reasoning in an edit summary. Sliggy 15:06, 22 November 2006 (UTC)

message: Is there a reason why the term 'cause unconfirmed' has been added to several deceased persons?  Is it a necessity or should the person be listed without noting cause of death if it is unknown? SailorAlphaCentauri 20:18, 8 December 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: It looks as though the term has been removed from the listed individuals. 132.174.124.1 16:19, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

message: The page should make it clear at the very beginning that the dates shown are for December 2006 deaths. Misterdoe 21:31, 26 December 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Good point...it looks like the December 2006 heading was changed to a date heading in an edit on Dec. 22.  I have tried to fix this.--GregRM 01:49, 28 December 2006 (UTC)

text: Actually, no. Deaths in December 2006 redirects to Deaths in 2006, for a reason, namely that we don't split off separate month entries (a la Deaths in 2005) until after the month is over. This is, as far as i can tell, easily the most sensible way of doing things which the regulars here are accustomed to. W guice 12:54, 28 December 2006 (UTC)

message: I have issue with Jared Nathan being considered notable.  If I'm correct, an actor needs at least three credits to be considered notable and Nathan only has one.  Why is he suddenly notable because he died in a car accident?  I'm going to remove with a note in the edit summary that I discussed it on the talk page.  Please respond here with justification before reinstating. -FateSmiled&DestinyLaughed 01:38, 30 December 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Jared Nathan

message: Today's article about Saddams execution has been amended a number of times from the "Former President" to "President of Iraq".
Factually, this is incorrect as he was, at the time of his death the Former President and I feel it should be cited as such.
Is there a consensus on this issue?

replies: text: Former president sounds like the clear choice to me.  He was president up until March 2003.  At the time of his death in December 2006, it had been 3.5 years since he was president. -- Chuq 11:49, 30 December 2006 (UTC)
