Talk:Deaths in April 2022

Aleksandra Yakovleva (died 1 April 2022)
Please change reflink for death to this link which mentions her breast cancer. The link presently provided does not specify the disease that claimed her life. Also should say "Soviet and Russian actress and businesswoman". Yours, 65.88.88.200 (talk) 20:00, 13 April 2022 (UTC)
 * ✅ partially - the link now in use references her breast cancer outcome, but is in Russian, as the "ePrimeFeed" source is a garbage aggregator/translator. Partially, as I say, because her reference as "Russian" is the only demonym required in this instance, and her prime notability was as an actress, so the description hasn't changed. Thanks.

Mino Raiola
Why does this list give the cause of the death of Mino Raiola as being lung disease? Whe his death was announced on the BBC Radio Four Six O'Clock News tonight (April 30 2022), it was said that the cause of his death had not been confirmed. YTKJ (talk) 18:09, 30 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Having studied all the available sources, most are saying that the cause of death had not been announced, although some pass on a rumour about a lung disease or condition. As there's no firm confirmation of the cause, I agree, so I've removed it from the entry. Ref (chew) (do) 20:32, 30 April 2022 (UTC)

Shirō Sasaki
This person, listed as deceased on April 18th, was confused with another person of the same name. The anime and music producer is still alive. Another japanese film producer (born 1939) died on that day, causing the confusion. 37.201.144.177 (talk) 13:11, 15 May 2022 (UTC)

Roxanne Spillett passed on April 11, 2022 and belongs on this list.
Roxanne Spillett, who was the first woman ever to be CEO of Boys and Girls Clubs of America passed away on April 11th, 2022. She was integral in developing a board that included Denzel Washington, General Colin Powell, Condoleezza Rice, and many other significant CEOs and cultural figures in her nearly 20 years in the position. Boys and Girls Clubs of America currently serves over 4 million young people and grew dramatically in order to make an indelible impact on the lives of children and teens nationwide. She should be mentioned on this list. She made a difference. 2601:C6:8300:4550:C86B:7858:1007:F492 (talk) 21:22, 6 January 2023 (UTC)

She passed away at 72. I did not mention that in the earlier comment. 2601:C6:8300:4550:C86B:7858:1007:F492 (talk) 21:27, 6 January 2023 (UTC)


 * She must have a Wikipedia article to be listed here. WWGB (talk) 22:16, 6 January 2023 (UTC)
