Talk:List of deaths from drug overdose and intoxication

message: :Note: First part of thread was initially on a user talk page. Moved here so others can participate.
Thanks for your explanation here: . Now that I know what you're doing, I can appreciate your edit. It's hard to appreciate something when you don't know why it's been added, and it breaks the formatting.  It's also difficult to know it only breaks the formatting on one browser when no links or explanations are provided. If you had linked Template:Sticky header in the initial edit summary, I wouldn't have complained as that would have told me what I needed to know. I'm not as adept at table formatting as you are, so I couldn't figure out what you were doing. Have a nice day. Damien Linnane (talk) 06:27, 9 October 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: Understood. I have been adding Template:Sticky header sometimes to the edit summary. I will add it every time from now on. --Timeshifter (talk) 06:41, 9 October 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: Actually I owe you an apology here; you did link it originally. There were many new edits and I lost track of things trying to figure out which of the edits broke the table. I do appreciate your edits to the table overall. It looked like it was a lot of work and the body of the table is indeed much better now. So thanks. Damien Linnane (talk) 12:00, 9 October 2023 (UTC)

message: I request also that Henry Friendly be added to the list as a notable inclusion. GuardianH (talk) 06:49, 13 October 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: Hi . The source at his article just states he was found dead by suicide with prescription pill bottles by his side. Even though that would strongly indicate drug overdose, it's not good enough proof. We'd need a source that specifically stated drug overdose. I may have time to go looking for one at some point in the future. If you already have one or are able to find one, post it here and I can add him to the article if you don't know how to do that yourself. Have a nice day.

message: I refer to your edit and edit summary here . Firstly, the "cherry picking" was done based on who had a suitable free image that could be used. Secondly, the montage was only added in the first place as it was explicitly requested at the FLC when I nominated the list for promotion. Thirdly, I have no idea what "whoever decided to use "notable deaths" wasn't even trying to be subtle with their personal opinions on the deaths" means. Can you clarify what personal opinions you are publicly accusing me of having? My only intention was only to comply with the request at FLC in the hopes of having the article promoted. I do not appreciate your tone or your accusation when I was only trying my best in good faith to comply with FLC requests. Damien Linnane (talk) 06:13, 7 February 2024 (UTC)
replies: text: The caption implied that their deaths mattered than others caused by drugs, perhaps even including others mentioned within the list. In retrospect, it wasn't a good idea to request a compilation of random individual images like that, especially with how undeniably selective it was.
