Proposal to split up list article Deaths in 2003
For some time now I have concerned myself with the Lists of deaths. Via a semi-automated process I am checking the Deaths-by-Month articles for consistency and errors. I started in December 2005 and intend to work my way back to 1996. Before 2004 the deaths lists are not organized by month but per year. Currently the Deaths in 2003 article has become so long that it should be split be up into lists per month. I would like to perform that task. I have these questions: 1. Article Lists of deaths by year, subsection 2003 Should be updated to: 2. Article Deaths in 2003 itself The article will have to be redirected to Lists of deaths by year 3. Existing redirects to Deaths in 2003 I found 26 redirect pages to the article I intend to split up. F.i.: - August 2003 deaths - 2003_in_memoriam Twelve of them will be used as the new Deaths-by-Month articles. This leaves 14 redirect pages to be updated Am I missing something? NB: Proposal is also done here Regards, Mill 1 (talk) 23:08, 31 January 2019 (UTC)
 * Should I just go ahead and do it or do I need approval/establish consensus from WikiProject Death first?
 * I identified following areas the will need updating after the split into month articles:
 * The article Deaths in 2003 has been split up in separate deaths per month articles. Mill 1 (talk) 17:18, 10 February 2019 (UTC)
