Talk:Darcy Clay

message: The sentence "Darcy Clay committed suicide at his girlfriend's house soon after this performance" seems to have become disconnected from some sort of proceeding statement somewhere in the edit process, although I can't really see where.  What performance?  No performance is mentioned in the two paragraphs before that sentence.
- I'd assume the performance the author meant is opening for Blue in 1997. Not certain though.
-- I'm pretty sure thats waht they were talking about. Isn't interesting how any musician who dies before their time always performs/records one weirdly poetic song before they die? Darcy and "Candle in the Wind" ("Your candle burned out long before your legend ever will", Kurt Cobain and his ironic "Come as you are" line: "And I swear I don't have a gun" Jeff Buckley who sang "Stay with me under these waves tonight" who went missing while swimming in the Mississippi....

thread_title: Fair use rationale for Image:Darcyclay.jpg

message: I've not been able to find any source that clearly states that Darcy Clay's death was in fact a suicide. The initial newspaper reports indicated only that he was "found dead." The only comments from police cited in the sources I've read state that the death was considered "not suspicious"  and that "no one else was being sought in connection with the death." The first article to mention suicide was the Dominion article dated 17 March 1998, and this it does without citing police or other authorities. And later, a 27 March 1998 Christchurch The Press article only restates that the death was considered "not suspicious." Though subsequent editorials and memorials relate his death as a suicide, there doesn't appear to have been any verifiable affirmation that it was so.
Can anyone provide something? Spogelseforfatter (talk) 07:41, 7 April 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: As this article explains, for legal reasons New Zealand journalists have to be very careful about using the "S" word until after the coroner's inquest has been completed, and early media reports often use coded euphemisms like "not suspicious" and "no one else is being sought". This Sunday Star Times memorial (published 10 years after his death) makes it clear it was suicide. --Muzilon (talk) 12:00, 20 April 2018 (UTC)
