Welcome!
Hello! I noticed your contributions and wanted to welcome you to the Wikipedia community. I hope you like it here and decide to stay.

 * Your update is accepted in the spirit within which it intended. As it happens, I am not a new editor, having been here for a number of years. I am subject to constantly changing IP addresses beyond my control. Cheers and happy editing. 86.131.235.171 (talk) 12:48, 27 June 2022 (UTC)
 * I can see your experience from your contributions. I recommend creating an account, by which you can edit protected pages and create an article. To IP editor, see it Thanks Zsohl (Talk)  13:05, 27 June 2022 (UTC)

Paywalled sources
WP:PAYWALL clearly allows paywalled sources, and the source used for Alan Blaikley does verify his date of death as 4 July. It would be preferable to use a non-paywalled source for this date of death if one existed, but blind removal of a paywalled source, whilst misusing WP:PAYWALL as a justification, is wrong. From WP:PAYWALL: Do not reject reliable sources just because they are difficult or costly to access. Some reliable sources are not easily accessible. The source is reliable, and verifies the information (I have checked it myself to confirm). Joseph2302 (talk) 07:53, 7 July 2022 (UTC)
