message: This person seems to have no notability outside her relationship to her father. Should her entry be deleted? Be best (talk) 07:44, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

replies: text: Cool. Can I ask if it's okay for me to delete such cases, or is it better to raise it with an admin (and if so, is this the way to do it?) Be best (talk) 08:20, 7 January 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: The general "consensus" around here is that most "redlinks" (death notices without a corresponding Wikipedia article) remain for one month before deletion. This gives editors sufficient time to write an article about a recently-deceased person. Having said that, some death notices refer to those who appear not to be notable (like this case in point). In such cases, the notice might be deleted immediately. Remember the Wikipedia guideline: be bold. WWGB (talk) 10:43, 7 January 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Also, if the article was deleted in an WP:AfD vote, it can be removed before the month is up, as the community has decided de jure that the individual is not notable (I consider a month-long red link to be de facto). Cheers, CP 04:37, 9 January 2008 (UTC)

message: I read his obit via the AP recently, yet his name is conspicuously missing from this page. Surely the praise circulating his work and self-named line of cosmetics makes him notable, no? I realize he doesn't have an article yet, but it wouldn't be the first time that someone gets their first Wiki article post-mortem. --Do Not Talk About Feitclub (contributions) 09:52, 9 January 2008 (UTC)

message: Hillary was not the first person to climb Everest. He was apparently the first person to put his foot on the summit, but he was part of a team, which included Tenzing Norgay, who also climbed the mountain. Might be nice to not maintain the idea that only white men's achievements count?.Be best (talk) 00:10, 11 January 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: This is an issue for the article talk page, not here.  I've changed the entry to just read "mountaineer". Tevildo (talk) 08:07, 11 January 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I won't revert but I strongly disagree with that edit. Some indication of notability in the deaths page is not uncommon, and in this case, it's like 'first man on the moon'. He's not just a mountaineer - he's the mountaineer for many people.Be best (talk) 08:25, 11 January 2008 (UTC)

text: This is madness! The "team" did not reach the summit, Hillary and Tenzing did. Whether Hillary was first alone, or first together with Tenzing, he was still first. And that's what the notice states. WWGB (talk) 08:34, 11 January 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: why are you yelling at me? I agree with you! It's simply inaccurate to say he's the first to climb the mountain, but he reached the summit first, and that's what my last edit says. I'm not doing this in the interest of 'political correctness', I'm interested in accuracy. I didn't remove the references to 'first on the summit' - I put them there.Be best (talk) 09:13, 11 January 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Be best, I certainly wasn't yelling at you. I was just very frustrated, like you, at editors who seek to diminish Sir Edmund's achievement and regard him as just another "mountaineer". I will adjust the indentation to make clear where my response is directed. Regards, WWGB (talk) 10:12, 11 January 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Actually, you've moved your comment under my original one. If you want to object to Tevildo's edit, you should reply to him. You reverted his edit to the one I made, so I assume you found mine more acceptable. I am in agreement that merely stating he was a 'mountaineer' is ridiculously understating the man's notability (when I said I objected to 'that edit', I meant Tevildo's edit.) I do not agree that he should be described as the first person to climb Mt Everest, as that's palpably untrue even from the cited sources. Describing him as the first person to reach the top is a rather ethnocentric and debatable description, but it's an acceptable shorthand for what is more properly discussed, if at all, in his main article. I hope this makes my position clear. I won't be editing his deaths entry again, as it's now becoming contentious. You guys can hash it out between yourselves. Be best (talk) 11:17, 11 January 2008 (UTC)

text: can someone explain the difference between being the first to climb a mountain and being the first to reach its summit? i feel there's a subtle distinction i'm missing somehow. tomasz. 13:19, 11 January 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Mountaineering is a team sport - Tenzing Norgay and Edmund Hillary did it together, and who put their foot on the top first is almost irrelevant. They climbed it together. If you know the least thing about Sir Edmund, you'd know he'd be the first person to point that out. It's like - two people race hand in hand to a stile, but only one person can cross at a time. Do you claim only that person was 'first' purely because of that physical limitation? That's my feeling anyway. Others can and will disagree. Be best (talk) 09:47, 14 January 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Many people "climbed Mt Everest" before Hillary and Tenzing, but none of them as far as we know reached the summit.  If I set out to reach the top of Everest, and got to within 200 metres of the summit before turning back, I would feel quite justified in saying that I "climbed Mt Everest".  It doesn't necessarily imply I reached the top.  It just means that I clambered over parts of the surface of the mountain, which may or may not include the summit.  --  JackofOz (talk) 23:31, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

text: Wow! See Wikipedia:Ownership of articles. "If you create or edit an article, know that others will edit it, and within reason you should not prevent them from doing so."  The territoriality exhibited by WWGB is unbecoming of a valued editor. RichardF (talk) 13:36, 13 January 2008 (UTC)

text: My Wikinews update on obits is not vandalism or just plain goofy. It is part of a broader effort to more closely collaborate between the Wikinews and Wikipedia projects! See User:Wikinews Importer Bot and n:Wikinews:Water cooler/miscellaneous#The Wikinews Importer Bot. No maintenance is involved. The Wikinews list will be updated hourly, as needed, by the User:Wikinews Importer Bot. The value of this link is it clearly shows the obituary items available at Wikinews for readers and editors, thus promoting and encouraging further inter project collaboration.  This is a good thing!

replies: text: Please also see WP:REDUNDANT. "Before creating a new article, run a search for the topic — you may find a related one that already exists. Consider adding to existing articles before creating an entirely new one." I agree that your Wikinews update is neither vandalism nor goofy, it just promotes incorrect information (wrong dates of death). WWGB (talk) 14:05, 13 January 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: This isn't a candidate for speedy! I'm not totally following what the dispute/disagreement is. We want to increase the visibility of Wikinews on Wikpedia and this bot is the best tool - to date - for this.

thread_title:  Competition? 

message: I've been doing this long enough, so I'm not sure why this hasn't come up sooner, but what do we do for entries whose death was published in a reliable source offline, but not online? I suppose this list doesn't need everyone on it (thought it would be nice for completeness sake), but I was just curious. I'm referring to Joan Dingley in this case, and I'm assuming good faith since I haven't seen the work myself (and probably won't, since that citation seems a bit incomplete). Just wondering. Cheers, CP 00:16, 14 January 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I've generally found that if a person is sufficiently notable to warrant a WP article, then their death is usually covered somewhere on the web, meaning that the awkward "non-web" reference is not necessary.

replies: text: I think there are a whole lot of reasons why she could be considered notable: (1) her unusual profession (for a woman) (2) the circumstances of her death (3) the fact that her death was reported on four continents - USA, UK, Russia and Australia. There are lots of people on WP with less notability. If you do write an article, be prepared for those who will say she is "just another murder victim". There may well be requests for speedy deletion or AfD. If you write a strong article (not just a stub) and be prepared to defend it, I think it has a good chance for acceptance.
